Pay no attention to the amendment styled
"a Regulation and taxation of the liquor
traffic" Don't vote il yes or no. If you
vote yes, it will only help the opponents
of prohibition to carry it against prohibi-
ton, and you neutralize your vote for pro-
hibition. Let the mind of every prohibi-
tion voter be fixed on the one sole duty of
voting yes on prohibition of intoxicating
liquors.
One thing at time. We are far from
thinking that to vote for prohibition will
exhaust the duty of temperance men. But
it is the duty of the present hour to see to
it that the whole prohibition vote shall be
brought out, and let it be seen what the
strength of this sentiment is in Ohio. These
amendments will be printed on the same
slips with the tickets of the various parties
so that every Democrat, Republican and
Prohibitionist can vote his own party ticket
and at the same time vote for prohibition.
This gives fair opportunity to ascertain
the full strength of the prohibition senti-
ment in the State, and it is not impossible
that the prohibition amendment may be
carried. Let no one be deceived or mud
died over this question. Keep one thing
all the time before you must vote yes
on the prohibition amendment"

Temperance Items.

Ex-Governor st. John of Kansa, says:
From May 1, 1880 up to the end of the
tax year, April 80, 1881, which was the last
year of license in Kansas, there were is
sued 1877 retail liquor dealers stamps.
From May to November %, 1882, there
were issued 1854 retail liquor dealers
stamps, eleven brewers permits and nine
teen wholesale liquor dealers permits. OF
this 1854 stamps, about 364 were taken
out by druggists, who were authorized un-
der the law to sell intoxicating liquors for
medicinal, scientific and mechanical pur-
poses. To this may be added 200 more
stamps taken out by persons who have
been prosecuted and their places of busi-
ness closed; leaving about 1000 places in
the State where intoxicating liquors are
sold openly or on the sly; giving Kansas
only one such place to every 1000 of her
population. While Ohio pays $4.75 per
capita tax on intoxicating liquors, Kan
sas pays but eight cents per capita for the
same purpose"
Kansas, during the year 1880, under
license, sent 300 State prisoners to the PEN
itentiary, against only 1sS the first year
after the adoption of prohibition, showing
difference of 107 in favor of prohibition.
The prison population of the penitentiary,
December 20, 1880, little over month
after the adoption of the prohibitory
amendment was 725, while on October IS,
1882, it was reduced to 657, showing an an
nual average decrease of forty after the
adoption of prohibition, while before the
adoption of prohibition the average in
crease was forty-six per year."

During 1882, Ohio contributed S14,57
SOL as liquor tax paid by the people, some
say that is one of the beauties of the sys-
tenn; it helps pay the national debt; the
distillers help pay it. That is wrong, the
consumer pays the largest portion of it;
and those who do not drink pay for the
damage done by drink, supporting paupers
and prosecuting criminals. The idea OF
paying the national debt made sacred by
the blood of thousands with traffic which
causes men to lose their SOUL
There is only one place in Ohio where
prohibition is absolute, and that place is
inside the penitentiary. Thieves are pro
tected, honest men are not"

''The law itself advances public sentiment

In 1874 Governor Howard, of Rhode Is
land, in a public address stated: " Prohib-
itory legislation in Rhode Island is a sue

The Providence daily Journal, ten
months after the statute went into effect,
contained this remark: There has not
been for years such exemption from the
indecencies of intoxication in our streets
and in the highways of our villages as we
have enjoyed the last two months"
Mr.. Alfred Andrews, referring to prohi-
bition in Connecticut: ".This law is to us

The Metropolitan Excise Law of 1866
for New York and Brooklyn, was absolute
ly prohibitory on the Sabbath, closing all
the saloons on that day, and over 1900 on
other days of the week. This law was in
operation thirty-one months. The Sabbath
was quiet and free from disorderly scenes
Good people and good newspapers were
enthuiastic over the results. In those cit

We EXPECTED to give brief notice of
Hon R G. Horr's speech Monday night
but circumstances have prevented We
have only time to say that the main por-
ton devoted TO political questions was ex-
cellent, entertaining and convincing. The
treatment Of the temperance questions was
not entirely satisfactory and would have
been better omitted. There was evidently
confusion of ideas when he stated that in
his judgement II would be many years be-
fore the Scott Law would be repealed and
then further on gave it as his opinion that
the Second Amendment would be carried
by good majority, which would at once
work the repeal Of the Scott Law. In sew
eral respects his logic was faulty and his
statements incorrect to which we may re-
fer hereafter.

A Good Face.

A recent writer has some good ideas on
the importance of mental activity in RETAIN
ing good face. He says:
I'VE were speaking of handsome men
the other evening, and l was wondering
why Z. had so lost the beauty for which
five years ago he was so famous. 'Ol it's
because he never did anything said B.
He never worked, though he suffered.
You must have the mind chiseling away
al the feature, if you want handsome mid
dle-aged men, Since hearing that remark
1 have been on the watch TO see if it is
generally true; and it is. A handsome
man who does nothing but eat and drink
grows fabby, and the fine lines of his fea-
lures are lost; but the hard thinker has an
admirable sculptor at work, keeping his
fine lines in repair, and constantly going
over his face, endeayoriDg to improve, if
possible, the original design"
