The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-11-03

from So 92S to less than $4,000, and in the
majority from 81, 872 to less than $500, may
appear to indicate the value of prohibition
in Indiana and Ohio to some Republicans as
a party principle but it does not so seem to
US. In Kansas, in 1880, Governor ST. John
received 99.2S2 votes, and the Democratic
candidate 60, All votes. In 1882, as the spe-
cial champion of prohibition, Governor St.
John received rs, 1853 votes, and Governor
Click, a Democrat SO, 237 votes, the latter
being elected. In the House of Rep
resentatives, the popular body, the
Republicans decreased their numbers
creased from 9 to 26. We submit that the
Kansas experiment will not bear an inter
probation favorable to the strengthening
quality of prohibition as party shibboleth.
1t may also be added that in the Iowa House
of Representatives Republican majority Of
forty-two in the last Legislature has been
reduced to barely four. We are attempting
no argument upon the merits of prohibit
ton, but examining it simply upon the cold,
critical grounds-on which it has recently
been presented-as an advantageous and
strong battle cry for the Republican party
in Ohio and Indiana. The Journal is Re-
publican newspaper, devoted with all its
zeal and ability to the advocacy of the
best and purest Republcanism. 1t is not
a prohibition paper, or any other kind of a
paper than Republican paper; and it is in
the interests of the Republican party, as it
conceives them, and in the best interests of
society and the country, which we believe
religiously, to be advanced by keeping the
Republican party in power and the Demo-
cratic party out of power, that we have ad-
vocated and shall continue to advocate that
prohibition cannot be made partisan po-
litical question, at present certainly, without
the most serious detriment to the country
and to the party. There are othersphases of
this question which we shall examine at an
other time, but content ourselves to-day with
discussion on the side of what may be
called practical politics"
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-11-03

THE Indianapolis Journal is not responsible
for the views of its correspondents. 1t is some
what remarkable that in this day of intelli-
gence statement of this fact should be at all
necessary. What the Journal believes and is
responsible for is to be found in its editorial
newspaper, worthy the name, can bar from.
its pages any other expression on public and
current questions than what may be in har
mony with it's own views, The Journal seeks
to be the paper and the organ of all intelli-
gent and high-minded people, and is always
glad to print letters from its friends,
under the simple restrictions that they
shall be brief pertinent respectable in
tone, and upon topics of general interest and
importance. We cannot open our columns
to the vagaries of individuals, or to essays
upon class questions, which can better be
sent to journals published for special inter-
ests. Not one intelligent man will expect
this paper, or any other paper of character
or liberality, to close it's columns to free
discussion of important public questions.
The Journal will endeavor to maintain the
faith as it has been delivered to it, in it's
best judgment in the editorial columns, but
with candor and a proper consideration for
those who may differ from it, and it is not
afraid to use the most liberal wisdom in the
admission of communications from all the
people
