which-were the dens of sin
once removed from the reach of its
possessor-might be famed into
flame which would build up the poor
broken nature, reclaim the vile body,
and make him a man again. The
drunkard is an object having claim
upon our sympathy and our prayers.
The murderous loafer who sells him
the poison which is killing him, is de-
serving of our hatred, and our unceas-
ing opposition.
We are glad to note that at last the
people are becoming aroused TO the
hideousness of the liquor traffic, and
to the magnitude of the disgrace to
civilization wrought by the lazy loaf
ers who live off of the earnings of
others by selling their victims the
horrible slops that drive out their
reason, and ruin their bodies. In short,
the people are becoming tired of Sec
ing men paying the lazy loafers of the
doggeries for destroying them, body
and soul
The day is coming when this horrid
crime will be driven out; when these
men and horses from the distilleries
will be put to hauling coal, ore and
limestone, tilling the soil, building
towns and cities, reclaiming wild
lands, building up communities, and
glorifying God. The time is coming
when the miserable creatures who
have no education for anything but
drawing and selling slops. 'yill be
compelled to lift themselves out Of
their state of degradation and crime,
and live as decent and honorable citi-
zens. And if any of them shall, in
that day, be SO peryerse as to refuse to
follow the dictates of reason, and shall
starve to death, the best act these
brewery horses should ever have done
would be to haul them to dishonored
graves. And the people would try
and drown their grief in the great rush
of progress and prosperity which
would follow.

friends for their jealous and united
support at the late election, and espe-

personal friends for years, and in this
expression Of gratitude. l also include
the laboring men Of the county.
When | assume the duties Of the
important Office to which your conf
dence and partiality elected me, l hope
to be able to so conduct its business,
as that no man will ever be ashamed

THE election just passed ought to
teach many useful lessons to politi-
clans. In the first place it ought to
teach them that there is sentiment
in favor Of temperance, which no par
tv can hereafter afford to ignore. In
Ohio, with nearly the entire press Of
the State against it, with most of the
political leaders against it, with both
gubernatorial candidates openly oppo-
sing it, the prohibitory amendment
received nearly one half of the entire
vote Of the State, and had there been
no other amendments on the ticket to
confuse voters, this would have car
ried by a sweeping majority. All
things considered, this was remarka-
bly, good fight.
Had the Republican State Conven-
tion acted with common sense, Mr..
Foraker would now be Governor-eleet.
But that Convention felt called upon
to go out of its way to slap Temper
ance people in the face, and bid for
the doggery influence. Perhaps poll
ticians will learn some time that it
pays to take bold stand for the right.
Then the friends of candidates
should see to it that only such candi-
dates are nominated as will insure sue
cess. No matter how unreasonable or
groundless prejudice against can
dida may be, still it is prejudice,
and cannot be ignored. Conventions
should act wisely, coolly and harmo-
nionsly, in order to insure political
success. There is no reason why Re-
publicans should not be grandly sue
cessful-both in Jackson County and
the State of Ohio-next fall. All that
is needed to insure such result, is the
exercise of common sense.

Mark Sternberger.

The defeat Of Mark Sternberger,
Republican candidate for Treasurer,
was due to a multiplicity of causes,
chief among which was the unrseson-
able, outrageous lying of the enemies
both of Mr.. Sternberger and the Re
publican party. Mr.. Sternberger has
for years been one of the most active
Republican workers, and consequently
an object Of dislike to some of the un-
scrupulous Democratic politicians. An
especial effort was made to defeat him,
and the means employed were such
silly stories that, after telling them,
the individuals so doing ought to be
ashamed to look Mr.. Sternberger in
the face. Many Republicans were led
to believe this bosh, and although the
County went Republican by 7O3 and
Mr.. Sternberger received more than
one hundred Democratic votes, he was
defeated. Of those who electioneered
against him honorably. neither Mr.. S.
nor his friends have any complaint to
make; but those who engaged in at
tempts to blacken his character as a
means of insuring his defeat, will not
perhaps enjoy their work SO much as
they might have expected. Mark
Sternberger has served the Republican
party long and faithfully. The Re-
publican party has treated him most
shamefully. Mr.. Sternberger can
stand such treatment if the party can.

The Poor Brewers!

The campaign just closed presented
many remarkable features, and some
of them were as ludicrous as remarka-
BILE. One of the richest features was
the circular sent out by the Jackson
doggeries in opposition to prohibition.
This circular assured the Jackson
County farmers that they could raise
nothing, to any advantage, but barley,
and the brewers used a great deal of
barley, therefore it would work ruin
to the farmers to have prohibition.
Then the closing of distilleries would
injure the sale of corn; the stoppage
of breweries would throw men and
horses out Of employment, to the
number of many thousands; would
destroy the work Of the blacksmiths,
the axle-grease makers, and would
even iniure the .ice-crop. And much
kindred nonsense was contained in this
trashy sheet.
On the Sunday morning before the
election we saw one Of the nastiest and
most bloated looking doggery-keepers
of Jackson starting out to peddle this
stuff among the intelligent farmers Of
this County. This miserable creature
never did days work, perhaps, in all
his life, and spends his time in de-
stroying other mems power to work,
yet he was wandering about, making
appeals to the voters not to throw the
poor doggery-keepers and brewers out
Of employment, and, in this printed
circular, arguing substantially that
the loafers who run the breweries and
hell-holes are unfit for any honorable
employment, and would suffer II
thrown upon their own resources.
Now, let us look at this matter
Alright. These fellows claim that per-
haps thirty thousand persons are de-
pendent upon the breweries for sub
sistence, and that they use many
thousands of horses to deliver
their beer. These thirty thousand
men and this vast number of horses
are engaged in, and making business
Of, destroying human bodies and hu-
man souls. The Devils Imp argues
that to prohibit the liquor traffic would
protect humanity-body and soul
against these destroyers, and that the
destroyers would be compelled to be
as decent as other people, and live
honest, upright, sober lives. There
fore it would be hardship to prohibit
their fun. There is not brewer or
doggery-keeper in the State who is as
good a man as the meanest and lowest |
of his victims, and if these victims are
compelled to work in order to get |
money to give him, why should he
not be compelled to work for money
for himself. The victim of the dog
gerry is more deserving Of pity than
Within that shattered,
reeling tenement of clay, God has
placed an immortal soul. That vile,
diseased and disgusting body contains
! human heart; heart that beats re-
,ponsive to human sympathy: heart
hat contains a smothered spark of

Ellis Craft was hung at Grayson,
Ky, on last Friday. Attempts were
made by those nearest the prisoner,
in the prison, and just previous to his
execution to get Craft to acknowledge
himself guilty Of the crime with with
which he was charged, but he stoutly
maintained his innocence to the last,
assuring them that they were hang
ing an innocent man. After all,
there are people who will hesitate to
believe in Crafts guilt, from the fact
that there was substantially no evil
denee against him but the confession
Of the seoundrel who acknowledged
himself to be one of the devils who
