OCCASIONAL CHANCES!

The young man who enters a doggery leaves
hope behind.
The doggery- keeper is q big man; he COM
bines three in one-Satan. sin, and Death.
The doggery-k keeper is a monopolist-he grabs
ali the money he can get hold of, and puts it in
the bank.
The man who sits on the streets and argues
"first piopnsition," means first proposition to
take drink.
Let the health officer take a solemn walk past
these Jackson beer doggeries, if he wants to
smell a pestilence.
W.re a mad dog tn appear on our streets, a
hundred men would turn out to kill him. Yet
doggery is worse than a mad dog.
The man who curses .'the fanatics" and
argues against the second proposition, always
has either red nose or an empty head, or
both.
On the afternoon on which Pete Becker killed
Brady, Becker bought two glasses OF "peer" at
two jackson dogeeries. They are both running
yet. and Pete's crime is specimen OF their
work.

"Tll bite you," said the viper, "but don't
make any disturbance about 1t, please-for the
people may give me chance to bite all of
them, if you only keep still about it"
The doggery- y-keepers whine that If we say
anything against the internal traffic, it wilt
injure us, and not harm them. We assure our
bloated and hlistered friends that we can stand
all the injury which comes OF fighting the
Devil.
keep your temperance agitation within the
churches, whines the DEVILS Agent. We may
say to this solicitous individual that the
churches are full of it, and there is an abund-
ance of zeal to u-e on the outside.
Look out, yer might break yer fist over my
nose ?" said the boy to his fellow who was pum-
melting him. IF you call attention to my bu~i-
ness. you will injure your>elf ;" says the jack
son dosg-ry-keeper. [But he don't believe it
not much"J
The Council would not permit a butcher to
establish a slaughier-house in the business part
| of town. Yet a slaughter-house could not smell
much worse than a berr-doggery. In fact, the
doggery is slaughter-house Of the worst kind.
A man who rents property for a doggery, re-
marked with reference to the proh,bitOry ordi-
nance: ST they att. mpt to put the saloons out

Luke Jones might have said to Sheriff Cher
ington, over in Kentucky: "If you make any
noise about This murder, Sh.r riff, or call the
attention of the people to its hideous character,
you will ipjure yourself and not hurt me !"
That is the style of argument of the poor, abused
dosgery-keepers. Why, bless your bIoaied car
cass, the Sheriff will hang Lnke. and we never
expect to let up on exposing the murderous
character of this dreadful traffic. until it is

Slate StnatOr,

John w. Gregg, Republican candi-
date for State Senator, was born July
13, 1S45, in Seal township, Pike coun-
ty. on Gregg's Hill farm, where he
now resides. He was educated in the
country schools, and has fair prac-
tical business education. He has all
his life been farmer, except from
the fall of 1864 to the spring of 1868,
during which time he was engaged in
the dry goods business in Waverly
and Plketon. He has never been an
office seeker, but he has always been
one Of the Spartan Band of workers
in the Republic IN party in the rock
ribbed Democratic county of Pike.
Having been born and raised in
sight of Waverly, Of course all that
he has been, and done, is well known;
but so pure is his moral character,
! and so firm his integrity and honesty,
that the Democratic politicians of
Pike county have not uttered word
about him except in his praise.
Such man, voters of Jackson
county, is before you as candidate for
the important office of State Senator.
This district is exceedingly close, po-
litically, and the Republicans have
nominated candidate who cannot in
any way be attacked. What the
Democrats may do we cannot tell
We do not know whether they will
put up as good a man as Mr.. Gregg
We doubt it.

A Mistake.

Quite number of persons went to
Portsmouth this week. They had vari-
Gus objects in view. Some went to see
Barnum's big elephant, Jumbo. Some
went to see Hoadly. Some went to help
nominate candidates for State Senator
and Judge; but most went to have good
time.
Now we who staid at home and spent
our money for goods at o. S. Miller's
store avoided their mistake. We have
something to show for our money be-
sides headache.
Go to Miller's for goods and you will
make no mistake.

ONE of our local Democratic politi-
clans became so enthusiastic upon the
beauties of Intemperance few days
ago, upon the street, that he declared
that the Democratic leaders would
compel Democrats to vote against the
second amendment by leaving it off
the printed ticket. We would like to
see these local politicians try that
once. These fellows-and there are
not many Of them-are opposed to
temperance work Of any kind, and
will endeavor to press it upon the
voters Of the party that it is their du-
ty to vote upon this moral question as
would-be POLITICAL leaders dictate,
when such vote could only be for the
personal qualification Of the politi-
clans. There are great many good
men in Jackson County who vote the
Democratic ticket. They vote that
ticket conscientiously, for the purpose
Of placing government in the hands
of their favorite party. Yet these
men are sober, decent men, and can
not be forced to vote in interest of
Intemperance, crime, and ruin, in
order to please few dlsreputable
politicians in town. When Demo-
crat votes the straight Democratic
ticket, he discharges his political OBJ
legation to his party, and the politi-
cal trickster who attempts to force
him into endorsing the doggeries, will
soon find where he missed it.

THIS is time for sober reflection
on the part Of the voter. The CAM
paign presents new feature in the
aspect Of the temperance question,
which is so presented that vote for
the prohibitory amendment cannot
affect in any way the vote, by the
same voter, for either political party.
On the temperance question, the po-
litical parties stand the same. The
Republicans favor tax-the Demo-
Gratis a license. which is the same
thing. Aside from the temperance
question, each Of the old parties
stands about the same as in former
years. The Republican party points
with pride to long line of victories
at the polls, victories in finance, vic
tories in all that goes to make up
craftsmanship. Tha party asks, by
virtue of past faithfulness and sue
cesses, to be again placed in power in
Ohio. Faithful service is its one
great recommendation.
: 'On the other hand, the Democratic
party has spent quarter OF century
in the most contemplate scheming to
get into Office, and during all that
time has advanced but taco ideas that
it is willing to stand by-these ideas
are Free Trade, and Greed for Office.
1t has always endeavored to hide its
past. record. 1t has in every cam
paign, endeavored to cover up its trail
to cut its own communications; and
it has generally succeeded in accom-
plishing the latter. The Democratic
party, when in power proved itself an
unworthy and dangerous public ser
want. 1t proved itself unworthy of
public trust. 1t has not improved in
any respect, and now presents polit-
ical hack-who until within a very
few years acted with the Republicans
AS candidate for Governor. As
between the two candidates, we very
much prefer the gallant young SOL
der, Foraker.

WE fear that both the old parties
are running bureau" We notice
the following editorial (?) in nearly
all of our Republican exchanges:
The Scott law continues to grow in
popularity. In the smaller towns it
has reduced the number of saloons
and the amount of drunkenness.
Democrats as well AS Republicans are
speaking its praises.
1t is bad enough to have patent edi-
torials; they become monotonous; but
when they are as full Of lies as the
above, they become disgusting, and
highly injurious to the party using
them.

Perseeutrd Devil!

The Devil Is always a coward.
When he is attacked. he will at first
show fight, until he fluids the attack
ing party is in earnest, when he will
howl that he is the victim OF an un-
just persecution. We are told by the
doggery-keepers and their bloated
hangers-on that we ought not to
"persecute" them. Well, it does seem
rather hard, sometimes. This Devils
Agent has to live. When he kicks
your drunken brother, or husband, or
father, out into the street, after rob-
bing him of all his money, he points
to his own little 180-pnund boy, fat
and bloated with his own slops, and
says: Mime poor vamily moost lif. ."
Then the poor fellow can only
make about 400 per cent. profit on his
goods, and even then the cruel Courts
are prosecuting him. Why, he can
not rob family, have a lady insultrd
in front Of his den, or make child
drunk, but some enemy will make a
fuss about it. Now, just think Of it
If he waddles up street. like lame
duck, leaning upon his stick, scarcely
able in his innocent helplessness to
get along, some fanatical enemy will
intimate that he is victim Of his
own vices. He cannot get dozen
men drunk, have half dozen fights.
wife-beating or two, and even a
murder, without some fanatic med
ding with a business that doesn't
concern him.
The poor fellow claims that the
Courts oughtn't to meddle with any
thing which belongs peculiarly to the
Church. He thinks no warfare upon
him is legitimate, save moral suasion.
If he wants to- fill up the Infrmary,
and put the County to the little ex-
pense Of building a new and stronger
iaM, why not let him do it? Ii he
wants to scof at the tears and pray
ers of the broken-hearted wife and
mother until his bloated sides shake
with merriment, let him have his lit
tie fun. Have some charity for him.
He never did days work in his life,
don't attempt to interfere with his
further living at the expense Of his
fellow men.
1t is really pitiful to behold this
poor, prosecuted wretch, as he stands
in the door of his "blace of peesness," "
surrounded by three or four of his
victims in process Of destruction, al
most as disgustingly bloated as HIM
self. The poor fellow must live, and
what if he does cause little sorrow
and misery during his stay upon the
earth2 When he is gone we will
never see him again. Let the poor
fellow make maniacs of his fellow
men, and drench the pathway to the
poor-house and the grave with the
tears of broken-hearted wives, moth
ers and sisters; let him send better
men than himself to the gallows; let
him destroy the entire community
that he may live without work-but
don't denounce his business. Have
pity upon his lonel,' lot; bear with
him patiently; he is the Devils own
orphan.
