Sounds Like Old Times.

A seedy looking fellow dropped
into the city editors room, and fail
ing to borrow a half dollar, he
begged to narrate his experience,

the Legislature, a constable, CLERK
of the courts, judge, candidate
time and again, and had a high
old frolic, l did"
81 don't believe it," said the city
editor!
"You don't, why?"
because ] have a letter here
which says you are thief and a
liar, a scoundrel and a villain, ira
Queer, a perjuror, a defaulter, a
plotter, a low-down brawler, a low

"Aha! stranger, go on and read

The Old Political Parties and the
Drink Curse.

The Savior in one of his para
bles, said, GLOW can Satan cast out
Satan? And if a kingdom be di-
vided against itself that kingdom
cannot stand and if a house be
divided against itself, that house
cannot stand and if Satan rise up
against himself, and be divided he
cannot stand, but hath an end"
When political party is pos
sessed by any Satan Of crime, how
can it cast out that Satan? How
can the party be divided against
itself on the liquor question or any
other crime question and stand ?
1t can only stand by political unity
and that union must be purchased
by the subsection of one of the op-
posing parts to the other. The
whole history of the Republican
and Democratic parties demon
strates that they have maintained
their unity and existence solely by
the subsection Of the temperance
element to the liquor power within
those parties. So long as the tenn
perance voter submits to the dom
ination of the whisky politicians
and stays within their ranks, these
two parties will live and fight each
other over mock issues for the pos
session of the spoils Of office, State
and national, but both have always
combined to exalt and perpetuate
the sway of the liquor crime

Queer Democrats.

We find men now Boosting of
their loyalty to the Democratic par
ty and giving the title of traitor,
Benedict Arnold, hypocrite, fanatic,
libertine, drunkard, and other pet
names to men who have honor and
principle and sense Of right enough
to not be whipped into line by the
grog shop influence, Here are a
few facts
William H, English, the Trainer
of the infamous anti-prohibition,
anti-submission whisky platform,
though Boosting Of his life long De-
mocracy, did not vote the Demo-
cratic ticket from 1860 to 1880, and
contributed to the Republican fund
to defeat Cyrus F. McNutt, the
Democratic candidate for Congress
in 1862 and at another time gave
the Republican central committee
one hundred dollars to defeat the
Democrats because in a procession
that passed his office they carried a
banner on which was inscribed !:
"The same money for the bond
holder as for the soldier" Old Bill
is Democratic boss.
Peter Leiber, the swill-tub brew
er boss. marched his employees to
the polls in 1880 and swore
he would discharge them if
they voted for Hancock. Seiden-
slicker left the Republican party
few years ago because he thought
the Democratic party had the least
respect for the law and the Sabbath.
Philip Rhappaport is the editor Of
German Republican paper that
this year has Topped to the Demo
cratic party as a party because they
"oppose prohibition at every stage
of its consideration" And yet these
men, or excuses for men, dictate to
decent Democrats how they shall
vote and call them all kinds of
harsh names because they will not
be whipped into line.--Monitor

"WhO Killed Cock Robin"

No, it was not the temperance
men who killed the Republican
party in Ohio, but it was the Re-
publican party itself that COM
mitted suicide. Without the
courage Of conviction to do right
it declined to do what the Prohibi-
tionists desired, but adopted an IL
legal tax license law which was re-
pugnant to the Prohibitionists,
and passed a seventh-day prohibit
orv law, but left liquor free and I'M
trammeled the other six days in the
week. 1t did enough to ALLEVIATE
the beer and saloon men, but not
enough to secure the hearty sup
port of prohibitionists. The great
mass Of prohibitionists and Chris
tian men Disguised at its action,
voted with the opposition or stayed
at home.

What Did 1t?
Both Sides Still Explain

WIS clip Cne IolloWlnS from Che
Tyler County STAR:
MIDDLEBoURNE,, Nov. 2, 1882.
Ed. Tyler Star:
The Register of October 81, is ra-
ther premature in swallowing the
savory morsel held out to the De-
mocracy by the independent, by way
of accounting for Goff7s majority
in this county. The article, after
telling all about who stayed at
home, finally winds up by admit
ting that the fault was in the Dem
ocrats not being organized. The
query is: if they were not Or
ganized, how do they know that
Democrats stayed at home?
The only true way to get at the
facts is to take counties and magis-
terial districts that did poll a full
vote. For example, take McEIroy
district Of this county. In 1880, at
Presidential election there was
polled a total Of 313 votes and gave
Hutchinson 81 majority. In 1882
there was polled a total of $50
votes, and COTS majority was 1876.
The total number of voters in Nc
Elroy is 1894, of which 263 are Re-
publicans and 131 Democrats, so it
is seen that Is Republicans and 10
Democrats stayed at home In that
distIict.
AS to counties, take Ohio as it is
the home of Hans Good. The to-
tai vote polled in 1880 was q less
than in 1882, yet from a Democrat
ic majority of 2S3 in 1880, was a
change to 1913 majority for Golf in
1882.
Again, take Braxton, the fortress
of Democracy, there was polled
IS more votes for Golf and Good,
than for Garfield and Hancock,
still the Democratic majority of 515
in 1880 is cut down to only $50 for
Good.
Try Gilmer. The vote for Golf
and Good was greater by 81 than it
was for Garfield and Hancock, yet
the Democratic majority is cut
down from 81 in 1880, to 10S in
1882.
The greatest falling off in votes
has been lin Republican counties
The true explanation of the
change is not by saying that the
Democrats were not organized and
that the Republicans were, but it
is attributable to the fact that there
were men in the Democratic party
with liberal views, and when they
saw wrong and corruption in the
Democratic party they stepped
down and out and came to the
polls and helped to make the en-
tering wedge that is to lay Bour-
bonism on the shelf in this State

''MOre Hogs and Less HE'LL"

In his speech at New Harmony,
Posey county, short time ago,
Hon. D. Voorhees, was somewhat
disconnected by the retort of an old
farmer to question which had been
assumed as unanswerable. He was
discussing prohibition in the deep
down under the stomach tones,
which have earned for him the
reputation of a great orator, and
was arguing, with many grand
fourishes of his hand, that the
whisky traffic was essential to the
prosperity Of the country. "Here
in Posey county, the principal pro-
duct Of your rich and fertile FARMS"
he said, "is corn. The average
yearly production in Posey county
is 1877 ,677 bushels. Nearly all Of
this vast quantity of corn is sold to
the distillers Of our country, and is
manufactured into whisky. With
out this market, what would the
farmers CT old Posey do with their
corn ?" and the Tall Sycamore of
the Wabash triumphantly paused
for reply to his mastery question.
The silence was only momentary.
AnIold farmer arose in the crowd
and asked, "Mr. Voorhees,, am | to
understand that you want an an
swer to that question:" You are
to understand nothing else," the
laundering orator replied. 81
should like to hear it answered"
"Then l will tell you what we
would do with our corn, Mr.. Voor-
hees," resumed the farmer. "Well
-" owe would raise more hogs
and less hell. "-Monitor Journal.

The personal Liberty League
they call it; the National Liquor

call it. The president is Emil

some of them aren't foreigners
Ifso, now they must be disappoin-
ted at finding such an organization
necessary in America, to preserve
that personal liberty" to which
they have doubtless been accustom-

Washington, 81. = Keer inter
rupted Hinkle and asked for a rul-
ing or the court as to whether cOun-
sci could set up character for the
defendants.
The court replied that one of the
rules to be observed was that cOun-
sci should never put in his own
statement as evidence. Counsel
ought not to throw the weight of
his own character in the Jury box.
Mr.. Tatten suggested that the
objection came with bad grace
from Keer.
The court: 1--WE are not deciding
questions of grace"
Him lie: Il want 20 say in self ius1
LITIGATION, that's all but following
the line marked out by counsel for
the government"
Thr court said that Hinkle had
gone beyond that line. Government
counsel had been pretty free with
epithets but they profeSsed to found
their denunciatiOns on evidence in
the case.
uinkle then proceeded to criticise
the practice Of the prosecution in
Ylllifying the defendants, insisting
that bravemen ought never to pur-
sue such a course. The only sOlu-
tlon for this method of proceeding
on the part of the prosecution was
that they did not make out a case,
and they had displayed anger be-
cause they saw their victims escap-
ing them.
After recess HeDkle addressed
himself to the consideration of the
amount of testimony which in a
criminal case can justify a verdict
OF guilty. The presumption of in
nOcence Is q strOng one, and not only
must it be overcome, but the eyi.
denee relied upon must be strong
enough to eliminate from the minds
of the jury every trace of reasonable
doubt. Ordinary instruments of law
have been set aside in this case.
The district attorney has been set
aside, and Kerr, Bliss and Merrick
employed, while the district attor-
ney went fishing. These high
priced lawyers cost money, thous-
ands Of dollars and hundreds of
thousands. He said the government
of the United States was fool
enough to embark in such a wild
goose chase as this and did not care
for the cost.
Adjourned.
