Republican Hypocrisy on Liquor
Laws.

Mr.. Forakar, Republican candidate
for Governor says of the Scott law:
"We do not claim that it is perfect;
Legislation seldom is. We do not
claim, either, that it will give entire
satisfaction TO every man and every
class of men in the State; there are
very few laws that do. But we do
claim that it is better than anything
we have had in this State since the
adoption of the present Constitution.
tor thirty years the traffic has had
free trade and been practically free
from all taxation. During all this
time it has been growing in strength,
multiplying Its evil and increasing the
costs of government. This has been
profitable to the dealers, but unjustly
expensive to the people who have had
to foot the bills"
The St. Louis Post Dispatch in re-
ferring to this whine says: "For
nearly thirty years the Republican
party has held almost undisputed sway
in Ohio, and all that time has pretend
ed to be the party of the churches and
of high moral ideas, especially hostile
to rum; and yet during all that time,
saloons have been free to run without
special license, free from special taxa
tion, and, as Judge Foraker admits
practically free from all taxation
All that time its organs and leaders
have pretended to wage war against
the whisky influence in politics, and
have played fast and loose with the
earnest temperance people -fooling
them with fanatic laws which were un'
constitutional. Now its organs and
leaders present themselves in the sor-
ry attitude of begging for both saloon
and temperance influence on the basis
of law mildly taxing the whisky
traffic, and having reached this point
of reformation they have the impu-
dence to arraign Democrats as friends
of untaxed whisky traffic, becauss they
prefer in Ohio what all the other
States have, a we'll regulated license
system "

The colored voters of Ohio recently
met at Columbus and adopted the fol-
lowing resolution: believing all men
created free and equal, with certain in.
alienable rights, and knowing colored
men have been liberated from slavery
and enfranchised to become the peer
of their fellow citizens of whatever
color or nationality, We protest agaist
political slavery and will no longer
consent to be the personal property of
shameless politicians; and we claim the
right to think, speak, act and vote for
ourselves, without persecution, abuse
or annoyance from any person or par
ty; and for the purpose of advancing
the interest and thus elevating our
race, we hereby resolve to form our
selves into an independent organiza-
tion for such political action as will
best subserve and accomplish this oul
right"

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made Of composition known
as albata, which is very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible of
the cheap metal. Another important point
inasilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
not suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
Keystone SilverWatch Cases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

Silver State.

The question Of the right of a China
man born in Hongkong since its ces-
sion 10 England to come to the United
States without regard to the Chinese
Restriction Act, came in the United
States Circuit Court at San Francisco
last Thursday before Justice Field and
Judge Sawyer. Counsel for the petit
toner. Chinaman, who claimed to be
a British subject because he was born
in Hong Kong, argued that the place
of birth made mans nationality, and
that man of Chinese extraction born
in England is an Englishman, and that
the United States could not exclude a
British subject, whether of the Chinese
race or otherwise.
Justice Field asked the counsel if an
American born in Shanghai is a China
man, and if he is to be excluded under
the Restriction Act? The Court fur
Their remarked that it was no reason
why Congress should not exclude la
borer of the Chinese race whether born
in Hong Kong or not, and intimated
as fact that the English Australian
colonies excluded Chinese from their
shores without consulting the Imperial
Parliament, and without any objection
to the Act from the Home Government
or from the French or Dutch Govern
ments, which have islands Inhabited by
persons of the Chinese race.
In answer to a point made by coun-
sci for the Chinese petitioner, the
Court stated that it was the duty OF
tbs Court to enforce the intention If
the law of Congress to remedy the
evil of Chinese immigration. The
case will be decided next Monday, and
it is plainly evident, from the language
of the Court, that it will take a diff
ferent view of the Exclusion Act from
that announced by the Federal Court
at Boston, and decide that Chinese la
borers, whether from Hongkong or
Canton, can not be PERMITTED to land
in the United States.
