Comments on the Situation from a
Republican Standpoint.


Editor .Jo,,rnal.-DEAR SlR:-Having
noticed a piece in late issue of your
paper entitled Comments on the sltua-
ton from Prohibition standpoint, sign
ed by A. M. Hutchinson, / thought II
YOU would allow me a short space IN your
paper would make few comments on
the situation from Republican stand
point. In the first place we claim to be
a Temperance man, and war against the
LIQUOR traffic in all its forms, but do not
believe in an Independent National Pro-
hibition Party. Mr.. Hutchinson says
there is nothing in the result to cause
Prohibitionists to exult, and we agree
with him, but he goes on to say that they
feel much like an induigent and torbear-
ing father does when reluctantly COM
PEELED to punish disobedent child. How
absurd. 1t looks to me as though they
had cut their own nose off for the pnr-
pose of spiting on some one else. DO the
Prohibitionists think they are the faith
ers of the Republican party? Ii so 1t is
about as reasonable as some other OF
their ideas. Now let us see what they
have accomplished. Instead of striking
at the rum traffic, they have voted as the
brewers, distillers and rumsellers desired
them to; they have seated a man IN the
Presidential chair whose life is rum rak-
ed, and who in his letter OF acceptance
made direct bid for the rum vote. Not
only this, but they have put into poses
sion of the government, the rum controll-
ed element of the country. In short
they have by this action turned the gov
eminent into the hands of the worst ele-
ment in American politics, the very ele-
ment they are at war with; and notwlth-
standing Mr. Hutchinson says we must
| toka hsed and beware how we tritie with
the question, we believe the Prohibition
| lists have inflicted an injury upon the
cause of temperance which il will take
wears to repair, and have virtually COM
United suicide. Notwithstanding Mr..
Hutchinson says we will do well to cease
does. look carefully at the signs in the
skies, and take in sail accordingly, we
believe the Republican party will still
| live, and without the parental advise OF
the Prohibitionists. A. COOK.
