Just the Shape of It.

Some paper nsminates J. B. johnson, of Tope-
ks, for Governor; whereupon the Topeka Capt.
tai flies at Mr. johnson with fangs and claws,
snd proceeds to rend him. The sum and sub
stance of the onslaught is, that Mr.. johnson Is
an enemy of prohibition, and tool Of the whis-
keyites. Mr.. johnson was Speaker of the last
House of Representatives, as the Prohibition
candidate formed the Committee on that subject
to suit st. John, and voted for the law. But
that counts for nothing. Any man who pre-
sumes to exercise his privilege of being an asplr-
ant for Office, or who objects TO st. John hogging
sll there is to be got of the Temperance bust
ness, is an enemy to prohibition. 1t will be Oh
served that the objection is not raised against
Mr.. johnson that he is not a sound Republican,
but that he is unsOund on the prohibition ques-
tion. From which it would be seen that man :
Republicanism is not to be considered in Re
publican Convention, but that the issue is TO be
made upon a question that has never been recog-
nized by the party as a party issue.
Can ANYBODY tell us what st. John ever did
for temperance, when he was in the Legislature :
He was a member of the Senate for two years,
but never offered bill on resolution or made a
speech on the question of temperance But he
did introduce a bill 10 control and regulate rail-
roads He was elected Governor, after having
made pledges to whiskey men not to NEEDLE
with the temperance question; but ever since
he has been in Office, he has devoted himself ex-
clusively TO prohibition, and to shield the rail
roads from the passage Of laws restraining their
impositions upon the public. Now it is high
crime and misdemeanor for any other man to
presume to ask a Republican Convention to
nominate him As n Republican

Y The Democrats in Congress think they
have struck rich lead, in bawling about Amer
lean citizens in foreign prisons. Most Of the
laws for the protection of foreign-born citizens
have been enacted by Republicans. But there
is big lot of humbug about the imprisonment
Of American citizens. 1t will be remembered
that, during the war, thousands of lrishInen,
who had been voting in this country, swOre they
were British subjects, and claimed British pro-
lection in order TO escape the draft. 1t is quite
within the range of possibilities that lot of the
same fellows are now claiming American citizen
ship, because they have been arrested in Eng
land and Ireland. American citizens have no
right to go to another Government and create a
disturbance, and then call upon this Government
to take up their quarrel. Irishmen who mean to
get up revolt in Ireland, have no business to
become naturalized citizens of the United States.
When they do that they making war upon
a nation with which the Government they have
sworn to support is at peace.

e A question that was agitated during JEFF
fsrson's Administration, has again come before
the public. 1t is that of the French Spolia-

capture or destruction Of large number of mer-
chant vessels belonging to Boston and other
Eastern ports, by French priyateers, between
the years 1870 and $500, and which have never
been paid by France. The grandfather of the
late William Foster, of Severance, lost a fortune
through those depredations, and he was the heir
to the claims which, if paid, would have made
