w. T. BAILEY, F. N. McVean and j.
D. Putnam. the Democratic candidates
for Congress, the Senate, and Assem-
bly, respectively, are just now posing
themselves as anti monopolists. Pre-
vious to coming before the people for
their suffrages they were never heard
of as defenders of the rights of the
many as against special privileges for
the few. On the contrary, Mr.. Bal
ley has for years been employed by
wealthy capitalists and corporations
to assist them in avoiding their just
proportion OF public burdens by es-
Gaping the payment of taxes and COM
polling the people to pay not only
their own taxes but also those of Mr..
Bailey's wealthy clients. 1t is not
claimed that the taxes were fraudu-
lently or corruptly levied, but their
payment was evaded through Mr..
Bailey's efforts upon mere TECHNICAL
ties of which no honest man would
take advantage. When a man has
made business of increasing the bur-
dens of the people in this shameless
manner his claims to being an anti
monopolist, and as such the especial
champion of the oppressed, are not
well founded. Mr.. McVean's record as
an anti-monopolist is summed up in
his business record as an agricultural
implement and hardware dealer in
which, if he has made any efforts to
protect the public against the monop-
olies who put these classes of mer-
chandise upon the market, the people
for whose votes he yearns, have not
yet seen bill of particulars. As Mr..
Putnam . interests as manufacturer
of flour and other aQpring-mill pro-
ducts are in the direction of keeping
the price of grain down and that of
flour, shorts, bran, etc., up, and as he
is backed by a banker, we are unable
to see the propriety OF his claim to be-
ing an anti-monopolist. The conyen-
ton which placed him in nomination
failed to place itself upon record as
an anti.monopoly gathering, and on
the whole it appears to us that Mr..
Putnam as an anti-monopolist is "a
delusion and a snare;' that he has
adopted this convenient title simply
as catch-word by which to obtain
votes.

SOME Democrats ask Republicans to
vote for their candidate on account of
his superior business qualities. True,
Mr.. Putnam is a good business man
and with bank back of him and spec
ial favors that railroads grant to man.
ufacturers has undoubtedly been sue
cessful in his milling enterprise.
We submit that Mr.. Morse has been
equally successful in his business en-
terprise, without any bank or special
favors. He has certainly furnished a
paper always alive to the interests of
the people, fearless and outspoken
against rings and monopolies. Mr..
Morse, through his JOURNAL, has
made a record upon all prominent
questions which interest the people
and his position is clear.

PR0HIBITI0NISTS.

We desire to offer few suggestions
to the rank and file of the Independ-
emit Temperance Party for their cam
did and careful consideration. The
object which now engrosses the atten-
ton of this organization is to Sc
cure the submission to vote of the
people the proposition of a constitu-
tional amendment prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of Intoxicating
| liquors. This submission can be se-
cured only by the election to the State
legislature of a majority of all men,
bers elected who will favor such SUBJ
mission. Past experience admoaishes
temperance advocates that to secure
this majority will be very difficult,
and in order the more speedily to &C.
complish this desirable result every
voter who believes that the people
ought to be accorded the privilege OF
passing upon this important question
should at the approaching election cast
his ballot for those candidates for the
legislature who are committed in ia
vor os such submission and who are
most likely to be elected.
The Republican candidate for the
Senate. HI. B. Warner. believes that
whenever SO large and eminently re-

for an opportunity to vote upon a
proposition involving a change in any
part of our constitution as the num-
Der who have asked for the submits
sion of the prohibition. proposition,
they are entitled to a hearing, aad he
will favor submission. The Republi-
can nominee for the Assembly, C. II.
Morse, long before thinking of ever
becoming a candidate for legislative
honors, advocated through the col
umns of this paper the submission of
this question to popular vote, as an
act of simple justice to the seventy
five thousand people of the better
class who had petitioned the legisla-
ture to give them an opportunity to
express themselves thereon at the
ballot-box; besides, the convention
rendering the nomination adopted a
resolution conceding all that the Pro-
hibitionists now ask touching this
question.
The Democratic candidates for the
Senate and Assembly have not CON-
mitted themselves in favor of submits
sion, and they are the candidates of
party committed against it. The
question for temperance people to de-
eide is this: Shall each of their vot-
ers give their ballots full effect in fa-
vor of submission by casting them
for Messrs. Warner and Morse who
support the proposition to submit!

And oft the sun

With her sweet, quaint demeanor,

You would have felt as did,
And quickly have decided

Diphtheria is very prevalent in
Boston since Ben Buffers after
dinner speech and spoons are in
great demand. The board of health
of that city has prohibited public
funerals in order to check the
spread of the contagion. This in its
turn has increased the number of
suicides very alarmingly, no doubt
on account of the cheapness of
funerals which of late years had
become SO expensive that only the
wealthier class could indulge in this
ostentatious luxury. 1t it truly
wonderful to note the number of
woes the late disturbance has
brought upon that devoted city.

A Relic of Sherman's March.
Philadelphia Times.

Philadelphia Times.
AS we ramped along through
woods of ash, elm, and water-oaks,
we saw wild ipecac and sweet viii
liam growing at the sides of the
odd pathway, and having asked the
name of a curious kind of grass |
was delighted at the theory that
came out. That" said the guide
in answer to the question, is
what we call Egyptian clover. We
didn't have it before the war and
none Of us ever heard of it until
Sherman and johnson came. The
seed was left ON the grond by the
armies. and now we wouldn't take
anything for it." The grass which
has tiney leaf, more like that of
the native white than that of the
red clover, grows all over the hill
sides, at the edge of the woods,
along the earthworks, and even
forces its way into the titled fields.
In its growth, it chokes out other
herd-grass and all weeds, though
fortunately it may be killed by
plowing or there might be too
much of a good thing. Horses and
cattle get fat upon it, so that on the
battlefield there is pasturage in
places where before the fight, moth
ing Of value grew. This truly was
an odd revelation-that two oppos-
