An Anti-Beer Article.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. 1.-The Gernta.
nia, The on Y German secular paper
published here that is not IN full har-
-rn0ny with the anti Sabbatarian and
anti-temperance movements institut-
ted by the brewing and liquor in
terests, in an editorial to-day thus
treats che subject: " Whittier are
we drifting, when we allow the Ger
man papers of Milwaukee to con-
vince us that the interests of the
Germans are identical with those of
beer brewers? When, some time
since, the agitation for and against
the temperance movement in Iowa
was III progress, the Germania
claimed that the wild continually re-
peated threat of the brewers and
distiliers' organs forced many anti
prOhibitionists into the temperance
ranks. We are very apt, it appears,
to witness like condition of affairs
in Wisconsin before long. Without
the least provocation portion of the
local German press begins its war
fare against all elements which did
not happen to be generated in a
beer barrel or whisky bottle. 1t
has called forth o storm of indigna-
ton which it is impossible now to
calm down. The views of those pa
pers are falsely denominated the
views of the German element"

Columbus says row of ina,nmouth
proportions has developed in the
Democratic State Committee, which
bids fair to change the entire plan
OF conducting the campaign. 1t has
been the custom to hold meeting
every Thursday, but the only mem
Der who responded at the last meet
ing was Mr.. Hall, of Lima. The
original plan of the organization of
the committee was to divide the
state for work and allow each mem
Der control of the funds to conduct
his section of the State. Last week
the committee got possession of
some $50, 600, and Chairman Thomp-
son appropriated some for general
purposes aud use of the committee at
headquarters. Other members be-
came dissatisfied and refused to
have anything further to do with
the campaign, and it is now learned
that the liquor men refuse to turn
over any funds to the Committee
and will spend their own money.
They say they will work for the
State ticket, but are making fight
particularly for Congressman and
will use money i'll all the close dis
irlcts. They expect to have sixteen
members IN the next Congress to the
Republicans FIVE, the delegation
now standing fifteen to five in favor
of the Republicans, one disiric:
having been added. Liquor men
say the State tax cannot be put on at
any rate before 1888, and they want
to control the national tax aud get
the internal revenue reduced. Glen.
ser, member of the Committee
identified with the liquor interests,
has Withdrawn and taken up with
the other side and says Thompson
sees no other resource for funds and
Is hanging on to what Ee has got.
1t is urged against him that be has
commenced laying wires for Paddle
ton in the Senatorial contest his
early III the campaign, which is crea.
ting much dissatisfaction. John II.
McLane, of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
Is credited with divorcing tho State
Committee and liInor interests.
