long to remain in the world, and that he
wants to be OF service to his native State
during the closing days OF his life. 1t is the
right way to talk. Whatever may have been
said of Butler in the past, just now he is en-
gagged in good work, showing up Republic
anism in its strongholds. That he will beat
them down in Massachusetts seems to be a
foregone conclusion. That done, Butler may
hope for repose, and dying it may be posi-

publican chattels about long enough. They
are becoming utterly disguised with the way
the Republican party divides with them.
They observe that it is very much after the
fashion the white man divided the game
with the Indian. The result Of the hunt, it
will be remembered was tur-
key and turkey-buzzard. The
white man, to make things appear eminently
fair, made two propositions to the poor
Indian. He said: Now l will take the
turkey and you take the buZzard. or YOU
take the turkey-buzzard and l will take the
turkey Ugh" said the Indian, i"you no
say turkey to me once. The Republican
party never have said turkey" to the
colored man; it has always been "buzzard,'
and the colored man is tired of that sort of
division. AS matter of course, the people

question, and the colored men of Indiana

THERE are some people very fond of calling
the Democratic party "the whisky party"
and that was the reason that Hoadly was
elected in Ohio. A Columbus letter-writer
hits the nail on the head as follows:
The brewers and the whisky claimant in tbe
cities got scared and made terms with the RepuD-
lcans: whilst in the country the Republicans
were pledged to the second ameudm ent to gain
prohibition votes 1t was the curious spectacle of
aparty with one end in the pulpit and the other
in whisky barrel. Yet the sequel shows that
whisky on the one hand and the prayers OF the
Church was not enough to them Under the
circumstances the defeat is terrible. IL is suc n
defeat that IL can never be recovered from. The
Republicans are now mad At the ProhibtioniSfs
and the ProhibitioniSts are equally at the Re-
Iuhlicans. IL ends the fusion between these two
parties.
