Temperance Meeting at North Gnu

Temperance Meeting at North Church
 Mrs Foster, of Clinton, Iowa, the woman lawyer, spoke to good sized audience last night at the North church on the legal aspects of the temperance question. Dr. Hawes took charge of the meeting After volun- tary by the organist solo was sung in a creditable manner by Mrs. Mansfield. Rev. c. E. Harris, of the St. John street church, invoked the divine blessing upon the assem- blaze, the cause represented and the speaker. A few remarks were made by Sylvanus But Ter with reference to pledges left in the pews The congregation were invited to sign these pledges and become members of the temper ance society. Then Mrs. Foster was intro duced by Dr. Hawes- The lady gave an in teresting account of the laxity as regards temperance in good moral society years ago, and to Dr. Lyman Beecher's celebrated tenn perance lectures, etc., and attacked liquor drinking as poisonous to the system and gave striking" illustration of the effect of dram drinking as shown in police courts. Mrs. Foster in a felicitous manner illustrated her remarks by facts and figures and eloquently pleaded for all her hearers to stand firm in the defense of their rights in connection with temperance reform.

The United States began the new
year with a public debt of Il, 1856,
481, III, or about $1,000, 900, 900 less
than the maximum amount reached
by the debt in 1865. Our National
debt is now less than one-half OF
that of the United Kingdom, it is a
little more than that of France, and
among other European nations it is
exceeded by the public debts of Rus
STA, Spain and Italy. The debt OF
Austria and Hungary is about the
same as ours. Judged by any test
of the ability of the people to pay it,
the burden of the debt of the United
States is by far the lightest of that

The Democratic Plan.

Under the above captoin, an able
writer in a metropolitan journal of
recent date, says:
"When Mr.. Jefferson came to the
Presidency, in 1901, the country
had undergone o process of consoli-
dation, liberal constitutional con
%struction, and consequent extrava-
gance, looking toward monarchy,
not unlike that which it has under
gone since the accession Of Grant.
The Republicans, however, of this
day have bettered the instruction of
the old F~ederalists. Steam electrici-
ty, and other modern instrumental
ties being placed in the hands of
the monopolists, controlling sums
of capital undreamed of half a GEN.
fury ago, the power of the Federal
lists, Imperial or 'Monocratic' party,
as Jefferson designated it, is infinite
ly greater now than then.
"But when Mr.. Jefferson put his
hands to the work, after a long per
iod of misrule, the task of reform
was perfectly simple, because the
principles upon which it were tc
proceed were simple. Mr.. Parton
elucidates the whole theme in this
brief passage: 1.-THE simplicity o.
his political system was such thai
he could give a complete statement
of it in a few lines, and it was sc
Sound that the General Government
from 1889 to 1873, has worked wei
so far as it has conformed to it, and
worked i'll as often as it has depart

that every honest, patriotic mar
who has since gone to Washington
after having learned his rudiments
from Jefferson, and has had strength
enough to vote up to the height Of
his convictions, made a very respect.
able public career, no matter how
ordinary his endowments; while ev
cry public man who has not accept
ed this simple clue to the labyrinth
of public business has made a career
which time and events will condemn,
when he may have had the talents
of a Webser or a Clay. This is the
Jeffersonian system in brief: "Let
the General Government be reduced
to foreign affairs only, and let our
affairs be d~isentangled from those OF
all other nations, except as to com
merce, which the merchants will
manage the better the more they are
left free to manage for themselves
and our General Government may
be reduced to a very simple organi.
tzation and a very inexpensive one;
few plain duties to be performed by
a few servants.
"This plan did indeed work to ad.
miration-to the admiration of all
mankind. In twelve years of Demo.
cratic administration the relatively
enormous debt was reduced from
$50, 100000 to $45, 600, 900, notwith
standing the Louisiana purchase fol

1t is only now and then that the
real views men have of n another
are found out. Reid's midnight"
despatch and Halstead's ideas about
"sensitiveness to poverty are pecu-
liarly instructive to plain people,
who ordinarily have no adequate
conception of what is actually going
on in the dark and beneath the sur
face. Whatever men may have
thought of Stalwart leaders at one
time, the lifting of the cover and ex-
posing the desperate realities where
by they were relegated to back seats
in the Garfield Administration is not
likely to tend to their disadvantage.
The country is obtaining some con-
ception of the reasons for the ex-
treme disgust that must have been
felt by Conkling when he took the
strange step of resigning his seat in
the Senate. Halstead's recent re-
marks on Garfield do not show that
the Cincinnati editor entertained a
very high opinion ofhim. Reid held
him in no higher esteem than as 8

scene to testify to the truth of thiI
analysis, and to affirm that he would
in time have EAST off the "midnightF

so, though there is not sufficient ev
idence that he would. The exposure
has come about in an unexpected
manner. In the hands of s'midnight'

an instrument Of ingratitude, and hi!

Nearly all the religious papers are
discussing Mormonism; some wise

difficulty of the writer's on this sub

they think the Government can wipe

Mormonism is as great a puzzle to
the churches and to the religious
community as it is to Congress. /
