THE OHIO ELECTION.

For the first time since 1877 the Dem
ocrats have carried Ohio Their plurali-
ty was then over $4,000; it is now report
ed to be ia the neighborhood of 25,000.
The canvass was not made on national
questions. While Mr.. Hurd gave a prom
inent place to the tariff question in his
speeches, there is no reason for supposing
that it played any part in determining
the vote. The election turned on issues
growing out of the traffic in liquors. For
many years past no license to sell intox-
icating drinks have been permitted by the
State Convention. The men who sec ured
this prohibition were temperance reform
ers. By it they expected to suppress the
sale of liquors; in practice thew gained
the free and unlicensed traffic in intoxi-
eating drinks.
Last winter Republican Legislature
undertook to levy tax on drinking
places in lieu of license, and to close
saloons on Sunday. The issues thus rails.
ed were enthusiastically met by the Dem
ocrats. They secured the cooperation of
the liquor dealers and manufacturers,
who furnished them with a large campaign
AAhoA1 cluu lIlCJ AAduC CdufdSS lUl rIl0
largest liberty in the matter of drinking
The Republicans did not advocate pro
hibition, but an amendment of the CON
which would leave the Legisla-
ture unrestricted power to regulate the
liquor traffic. Such an amendment, it
was argued by the opposition, would
authorize the Legislature, in its dis
cretion, to prohibit the sale of liquors
as beverage. But, nevertheless, a Pro
hibition ticket was put forward which Sc
cured large vote and was an important
factor in giving the state to the Demo
Gratis. The result shows that the intro
duction of the prohibition question into
politics, if it does not promote temper
ance, is an admirable expedient to pro-
mote the success of the democratic party.
The outcome ofthe experiment in Ohio
is to confirm the free and unregulated
traffic in Intoxicating drinks, and to elect
fifteen Democratic to six Republican rep
resentatives in Congress. -Mlzuaukee Re

A POLITICAL BATTLE IN Prussia
About the end Of this month a great po-
litical battle will be fought in Prussia
Elections are to be held for the Landtag
or Chamber of Deputies. All parties are
vigorously at work. Bismarck is fidgety
for he recognizes the possibility of pop
ular verdict against his unyielding, inn
perial policy. The latest advices from
Berlin indicate that his fears are well
founded. The star of Liberalism is in
ascendant. In the last Landtag the Lib
eralism had 145 members. A gain of rs
will give them a majority. At first blush
it would seem rather improbable that such
a change would be effected; but it is said
they expect even greater gain. The
conditions are extraordinarily favorable
for them this year. For several years
the Liberals have been divided into three
groups - Progressionists, old National
Liberals and Secessionists-an fractional
dissensions have been a source of weak
ness. Now they are united and present
an unbroken front against the Conserva-
tive or Ministerial party. Happily, they
find the enemy's camp divided Not
only are the Conservatives and Clericals
unable longer to cooperate cordially, but
the Conservative groups cannot unite,
and several districts are running oppCsi-
tion candidates So, the signs point to a
hard winter for Prince Bismarck.

Two FIGHTING LIONS SCATTER

Two FIGHTING LIONS SCATTER A
CRoWD.-While Barrett's circus train
was standing on the track at Charlotte,
n. c., waiting for orders, quite an excit-
ing incident took place. Two lions be-
gan to fight in their cage, which was on
fiat in the middle of the train. In their
struggles they upset the cage and knock
ed out the wooden side, but the heavy iron
bars remained intact, and prevented
them escaping. The deep roars and
fierce growls of the maddenad beasts were
frightful to hear, and the way the crowd
turned tail aud fed up town was sight.
The keeper ofthe lions had to subdue
them by throwing chunks of fire at them.
While the fight was in progress to add to
the excitement, the big elephant Xerxes
become excited, and threatened to break
from his car, bat he was finally quieted by
his keeper. A large crowd had collected
at the depot to see the circus train, and
when the lions began to fight they scatter
ed like chaf before a tornado Charlotte

with him the excitement and dangers of
many startling adventure. When La
