Prohibition Notes.

VIRGINIA.-Clarke county, Va,
voted for prohibition, by a vote of
5S1 against license to 558 for license.
. INDIANA. - The prohibitory
amendment went through the last
Legislature, spite Of the Republican
whisky ring, because it had both
Republican and Democratic sup
port, and it will 60 through the
next Legislature in spite Of the
Democratic whisky ring for the
same reason. Monitor Journal.
ILL1No1s.-Says the Chicago
Times: "The only thoroughly hon
est party in Illinois just now is the
party of prohibition. 1t lisa party
Of principle, and not of spoils. Its
underlying motive is one which
appeals to the moral sympathy Of
all men who would save their fell
low creatures from the wretched
ness, crime, imbecility and prema-
ture death that attend upon the free
use Of Intoxicating liquors. This
party has well-defned aim. 1t
goes straight to the mark. The
means by which it proposes to over
come the hideous and debasing eff
fects of drunkenness may not be
successful, but in arguing their
adoption the singleEess of their
purpose must oe admired, and they
present a striking and refreshing
contrast to the organizations con-
tending for the spoils.

Time for a New Party.

If any honest Republicans
should ask whether it is not a mere
alternative between the two par
ties, and whether the Democrats
represent anything better, the re-
ply is that such a question reveals
a state Of things which cannot con
tinue unless our whole political
system has failed. When the
choice between parties is the
choice between one horse lame in
three legs and another lame in
four, the same Independent element
Of which we speak will 60 for a
horse sound in all his legs. In
other words, when the Republican
argument has fallen to an asser-
ton that Democrats are no better
than Republicans, the time will
have arrived for new party,-Har-

to make ones blood boil worse than

up after q night OF restless tossing,

sells under the name of beer. Those

watch it all dry, found that the mer'

died. In such q time, / fear the NAT

Fighting "a Bear.

KERHoNKsoN N. Y., Aug. 14.-A party of berry pickers had a desperate encounter with a large black bear in wild and unfre- quented part of the Samsonville Mountains, about twelve miles from this place, to-day. The party had been engaged in gathering fruit at this place for several hours, when one of their number-Miss Sarah Preston started with pail full of berries to sc to the place where the party had left their dinners and extra pals in the morning.
 On reaching this spot Miss Preston dis covered what she supposed was 8 dog eating up her dinner. fingered at the brute she rushed at him with 8 stout stick. The ami mal, which proved to be bear, showed fight, and turning upon her felled her with a blow from one of it's paws, but in doing so slipped off a rock, landing several feet away. Miss Preston beat nasty retreat, screaming at the top of her voice for assistance. His bearship rushed at her second time, lacera- ting her arm with it's claws.
 The cries of Miss Preston brought the other members of the party to her assistance, two of whom-William Thompson and George Osterhondt t-were burly young far mers. Thompson seized stout club and struck the bear a stunning blow on the head. The bear returned the blow with powerful thrust at Thompson with it's fore paw, infiict. ing & severe wound on his head, but not enough to entirely disable him. Both men went at the bear with clubs and stones. The struggle was long and fierce one. Thomp- son becoming weak from loss of blood finally sank down from sheer exhaustion, leaving Osterhondt to continue the fight alone, the other members of the party having fed Osterhondt is a powerful fellow, capable ot handling two ordinary men. Luckily he had in his possession large pocket knife, such as farmers and backwoodsmen usually carry. With this weapon he manageable wound Bru' in in several places with no other effect than to make the brute more fierce and enraRed The encounter grew moro desperate at each moment. Finally the bear managed to get Osterhondt in his embrace. At this juncture Osterhondt ran his knife up to the hilt ir the brute's side, causing him to tumble over, retaining, however, his grip on his assailant. In the fall the bears weight came down on Osterhondt with crushing force, breaking two of his ribs and his Jeff arm. With another powerful thrust Oster hondt succeeded in indicting 8 wound in [ vital part, killing his bearship.
 The two men lay upon the rocks in A help less condition for several hours, until tho memb IS of the party who had fed returned with several men, the latter carrying tn, bear and his two victims to their homes Both men, it is thought, will recover, al though Osterhondt's condition is very preca rious.
