ator, demonstrated his ability as a good

To the gentlemen, my co-workers in
the grea, Republican party-that organ
ization which has defended liberty, made
tree the slave, maintained at all costs the
national Union, while promoting indus
trial and commercial progress and devel-
opments-I can only say that my own
PERSONAL and political lie has been in the
past, as it will continue to be in the flu
ture. one unbroken pledge of service and
fidelity tn the cause, the prin, pies, and
the policies which have made our Repub-
lica" party the greatest, the mob est, the
brave,t and the best pulitical organiza-
ton upon which civilization ever smiled
Notes are found in the sunbeams. Specks
are seen in the sweetest OF human eyes.
Scum will rise to the surface of the clear
est waters. Camp-follOwers are found IN
every army, and suffers are seen in every
cantOnment. Our political opponents do
not monOpolize all the wees, rcr sre all
the civic virtues found only in our own
lines. The failures or mistakes Of the
Republican party must and will only be
incentives to Republicans for better work
and greater exertions. 1t will he my
constant endeavOr to be worthy of your
trust as one of the standard bearers OF our

THE CITY OF WINNIPEG.

There are eleven religious societie. in
the rev and lively city of Winnipeg,
Manitoba; and it is said that their aggre-
gate wealth is estimated at the immense
sum of S11, 100000 In the early his
tory of the country the Hudson'S Bay
Company made grants of land to the var
ious churches-Protestan and Roman
Catholic. The company gave no deed
however, and simply made an entry of
the gif, OF the lands in its books. This
was considered all that WAS necessary at
the time. The lands were practically
valueless then. And the company's
promise was considered much preferable,
and in m S. cases it has been made good
Th. Roman Catholic Church has been
the most fortunate. having a title TO lands
now valued at $10.UO0,000. On very
small portion of the Roman Catholic pos
sessions the Archbishop is assessed $780,
600, and for block valued at $4,000, 900
the Archbishop has recently refused an
offer of $4,000 600. Three Episcopal
churches have over 100000 worth of
property, mostly land: the Methodists,
$3.50, 900; Presbyterians $l26,000, and
the remainder is divided between the Bap-
fists and Congregationalisrs. A number
of costly church buildings have already
been created in Winnipeg, and it is said
that two 500, 900 structures will be erect
ed either this year or next. Several of
the religi Us societies have speculated in
city lands and made good deal CT money
in that way.

JOhn SwintOn. of the New York Sun

John SwintOn, of the New York Sun,
who went to Paris iii 1880, and has jus
returned from second visit, gives he
following as "among the noticeable. sig
nifrant and satisfactory things there at
the time:" The vast extension of pop
ul If schooling all over France under the
new laws; the decline of militarisn as a
domineerng power in the state and snci-
ETY.; the fairer distribution of the means
or goods of life; the sp:ead of natural
or scientific knowledge and the decline of
superstition; the better appreciation of
the franchise in election; the taking into
account of the welfare Of the prOletariat;
the whitening OF aristocratic pretense ;the
growth of a reasoning press; and, to
speak inclusively, the palpable generation
OF democratic ideas through the whole
community in all its countless activities.
Every sue essive election in France tor
Years has shown more and more the
working of thihgs in favor Of Republican
ism; and even NJ. fhiers himself could
not now repeat his words of IA dozen years
ago about France being Republic with
out republicans.

GERMAN CAPITALISTS In KANSAS
Farming on an extensive scale is now

The following from the poet Whittier
speaks the mind of all but a small fac
tion of the temperance people in the land
to-day. He says:
still believe in the right and ,luty of
the community to protect itself by legal
enactments, whenever their is public
sentiment strong enough to enforce the
prohibition of the sale of Intoxicating
liquors as a bevCr sge. But recent events,
Especially the Result OF the late elections,
have convinced me that work OF moral
su sion and personal example must be
done before law can be made available.
When the temperance people find out,
as in time they surely will, that Giles,
Hasting, Kannuse & Co. are ouly play
ing on their Temperance principles for the
purpose of political game, they will
look at the prohibition football as it has
been kicked about in Wisconsin, with
disgust. The only object these men had
was revenge in the defeat of the Repub-
lican party. Democratic money, no
doubt, helped them along, and Demo
cratic Assembly occupies the field as re.
suit. What has been gained for prohibi
ton or even temperance, no man can see.

JOHN WINANs will take trip down

they do it.-JefersOn Banner
Democrats il hearing this must have
very uncomfortable feelings fearing that
Mr.. Winans may eHdcavor to use biz
manipulating powers in organizing the
new House of Representatives on the
same basis, and with the like unhappy
results, that he did the Wisconsin Assem-
bly, this winter. The Democrats at Mad
ison are all of one mind in wishing thai.
Mr. Winans never was born, and everv
day feel like kicking themselves for al
lowing the ''Indepeudent Congressman"
from the First District to get them into
the horrible pickle and parliamentary
chaos, at present so painfully apparent
among them as the natural outcome of
selecting laundering and incompetent
officers. Paying off election debts with
Legislative Offices may be we'll enough
as an 'iAdependent movement" and
clearly in the interest of Reform"
but it is found this winter at the capitol
to be anything hut favorable to the prompt
and efficient transaction of business in the
legislature.

THAT STATIONERY STEAL.

The democratic assembly this winter
has set a very bad example in the line of
retrenchment andreform and the expect
ancy of better things in politics. Taking
the democrats as true oracles in the past,
aud the editor of the Jefferson Banner
- the son of prophet, it was to be ex-
pected that the Republicans would stea
stationery and whist other things they
could find lying around loose in the cap
itol But if professions can count for
ought in this world of ours one could
hardly be prepared TO see Chief Clerk
Carr ignoring clear constitutional pro-
vision which says plainly that mo sta
tionery, newspapers, postage stamps or
other perquisites shall be received from
sf state by any member of the legisla.
ture for his services" Mr. Carr loads up
with stationery swsg, distributes it an o1g
the members of the house, and when
his attention is called to the offense he
has committed he says the constitutional
provision does not mean what it says.
Further than this he plays the baby act
and says that in his n;sdemeanor he has
the example OF Clerk Bross of the Senate
to protect him, inferring that Bross being
republican he Carr cannot be far out
r
Mr.. Carr has become very sensitive upon
this part of his career as Chief Clerk and
has called some very naughty names to
those who begged leave to differ with him
on his construction of the constitution.
Editor Rublee, of the Sentinel, received
some ofthe abuse for which brother Carr is
proverbial, but manages to survive the
dirty attack.

The democrats, whenever campaign
is in progress, always profess to be the
party Of the people, and promise great re-
forms. Let it now be observed that the
leading democrats ia the assembly voted
against compelling members to pay fer
their stationery, after they had succeeded
in filching from the state, contrary to the
Law and the constitution, portion OF the
quantity for which they now must pay.
IF the democratic party as represented
in the assembly s"the great party Of
the people," then the people of Wiseon-
sin have grown deplorahly dishonest

WHERE is ELLEN FOLEY?
The Mystery Surrounding n Steuben
willie HeirfsS.

STEUBENvILLE, November 1.-The Gazette
says: Ellen Fyley, one Of the heirs to her
fathers large estate, who was reported as
having returned to the city, is not here.
An extended account OF her leaving her
home in this city and the attempts to find
her have been published, the facts having
been brought to light by the death OF her
fstler, Peter Foley, some time since. In
order 10 settle the estate, Efforts to find her
vheI eabouts were renewed, but nothing
could be learned OF her until last Friday,
when Mrs Bowers, who lives near Pitts.
burch, came down TO see Mr.. Foley, not
having heard Of his death. She informed
the girls friends that Ellen had been liv-
ing with lcr ever since she first left her
home, and that all the published reports
about Ellen being in Cleveland and other
cities were untrue. She returned to her
home, and yesterday a letter was received
by the girls friends here stating that she
could not return to Steubenville for two
or three weeks. The above facts were OBJ.
iaired from Ellen Foley's sisterinl law, but
MrS. Eeuche, Ellen's sister, called upon us
this afternoon and gave US to understand
tha; Ellen had not been found. There ap'
pears to be mystery in the case.

enlarged and minor places abandoned. A
soldier, says General Sherman, must be
treated as q fellow.man; let him live in
comfort, and he will respond to the cal
eyer-eyen to death. When soldier is
employed as a carpenter, mechanic or
laborer, il is only fair that he
should be Paid for such Labors.
Because of the transfer Of command 10
General Sheridan, no recommendations
for the future are made, other than the re-
newiug Of such as were made IN former re.
ports. The opinion is expressed, however,
that il will be found wise to provide COM
mon organization for all arms OF the ser
vice, and that Congress should provide for
the transfer of regiments from remote TO
home stations after fair period OF service.
In this connection particular attention IS
called to case No. 2l-infantry which has
been on the Pacific coast fourteen years.
The General hopes Congress will not
withhold Means of transportation
of such cases, especially now when the
treasury is groaning under surplus rev.
enue, caused in part by the conduct OF the
yeIy men who appeal to them, for he be.
lieves the army has protected, defended
and encouraged the building OF its trans.
continental railroads and the settlement OF
the great West, which are the chief causes
of the great prosperity that now olesses
