Regular meeting of the W. C. 4. u.
on Friday afternoon at 8 O'Clock at
the Baptist church.
"Home Protection" is the rallying
bugle call of a hundred thousand wo-
men. How it came to be, and why it
should be, is told i'll a beautiful leaf
let ''The Story of Great Conviction
by Mary B. Willard. Price Is cts.
per hundred. 161 La Sale ST.. Chicago.
"Men!" said our matchIess Mrs.
Foster in recent address, ''Men!"
There are a hundred thousand of us
women and most all of us have boy,
and some of us two or three. Can you
think what it means for the next gem
Grafton to have a hundred thousand
men, sons of the w. G. \. U. wOmen?"
A Good Reason.
In the Senate Chamber of Iowa,
during the discussion upon the amend
ment to the constitution giving wo-
men the ballot--which was agreed to
by the Senate, 20 yeas to "a nays--the
senators were divided as to whether
the ballot was natural or a conferred
right, when Mrs. Florence Miller Jedi
tor Of the State w. G. T. U. Depart
ment in the Iowa Capitar said: lit
grows out of our natural right to de-
fend ourselves; the ballot in civilized
life takes the place of the fist in the
savage"
We need nothing now in this coun-
try to obtain entire emancipation
from the horrors of the liquor curse
but little fidelity ON the part of the
church to christian duty. The liquor
traffic is tho one great obstacle in the
way of progress of the gospel, and it
seems to me the church should help
with all its might to remove it.--Neal

to the victim of improper indulgence. Young

proper habits than by the prudentY Besides
being deprived OF the pleasures OF healthy
offspring, the most serious and destructive
symptoms of both mind and body arise. The
system becomes deranged, the physical and

tive power, nervous irritabiity, dyspepsia,
adaptation of the heart, indigestion, consti-
tutiGnal debility, wasting OF the frame, cough
consumption. and death.

Christian workers Needed i'm India.

The Rev. DR.. Parker, a missionary from
India, in sermon in Philadelphia Sunday
last, said "A short time ago stood on
the banks OF the Ganges, the sacred river,
with 100000 Hindoos around me. For
three miles on either side they crowded the
shores. gathered together in their great an
nual convention in October and Novem-
Der. Going to the rivers edge saw the
people making little boats out OF reeds
and setting them afoat with small
lights upon them. / asked them what
they did this for, and they said it was
to light the way OF the spirits Of
the departed in the darkness OF the
other world. For nearly all the COO, OOO, 900
souls in India the hereafter is all darkness,
and we are S, eking to carry the light OF the
Gospel to them. They have the desire for
light and purity just as much as other
people do" DR.. Parker described the
difficulties that met the missionaries in
their work, caused by ignorance and SUI
perstitlon, and made an earnest appeal for
help in their labors. Many have been con-
verted, but there yet remains vast deal to
be done. Native ministers assist the mis-
sionaries, often at the risk OF their lives,
and the spread OF Christianity is slow.
More missionaries are needed TO carry on
the great work already begun.

The Democrats Of Pike county, Pa. YES
terday resolved in favor OF Samuel j. Ran
dali for President, regardless OF his views
on the tariff question" Is this the first
response TO Speaker Carlisle's blunderbuss.
or Is Old Pike simply standing by a'favorite
son without reference to the issues in
volvedy
No man in the country grew so rapidly
last week as Samuel j. Randall. The free
trade speech OF Speaker Carlisle last Satur-
day evening was boon TO him. 1t raised
him politically about seven feet.
Mr.. Carllsle's speech at the free-trade
dinner will not hurt him in Kentucky or
in Texas. But it will not suit Ohio, which
has just elected Democratic Governor
and Democratic United States senator on
directly opposite principles. 1t will not
please New Jersey, which gave an old
fashioned Democratic majority four months
ago on platform antagonistic to that laid
down by Mr.. Carlisle. 1t will not be tole-
rated IN New York, where all but an in-
significant fraction Of the Democratic party
repudiate free-trade heresies.
Kentucky and Texas are Democratic
States. As Republicanism in their case
means the bayonets OF Federal soldiers at
their threats and the hands OF Republican
thieves in their pockets, they are certain to
support the Democratic presidential cam
dldate. But New York, New Jersey. and
Ohio are debatable States. They can be
carried for the Democratic party only by
united Democratic effort and sound COM
mercial and financial policy. Free trade
means in those States political defeat to
any party which is stupid and reckless
enough TO propose 1t.
In the Democratic National Convention
the great question Of the hour will be how
TO carry New York and New Jersey, which
are absolutely essential TO Democratic vic
tory, and how to retain Ohio, which was
SO nobly wrested from the Republicans by
Judge Hoadly, an incidental protectionist,
last year.-Nep York World.

Our old friend OF the Norfolk Ledger re-
plies to our article OF last week in pleas
ant editorial, Of which we copy only lit
tie parsgraph-as follows:
"If the Dispatch opposed the discussion
Of that measure it was done in the interest
OF the party and to preserve harmony, but
it forgets its good intentions, and forces,
by its ruling, true Democrats into the Re-
publican party because they believe in
tariff reform. The Dispatch is never at a
loss for arguments, but it will trouble it
no little 20 play the character OF harmoni-
ger, and at the same time weed out from
the Democratic party those very men who
believe that the Democrats, unlike the Re-
publicans, hold their pledges as sacred and
desire to redeem them"
We have never intimated that ace would
rule true Democrats out OF the Democratic
party because they did not agree with us
on the tariff question. We merely tried to
show that the man ruled himself out who
said he regarded the tariff issue as the
most important one before the people.
We meant Of course only such Free-Tra-
dars as would rather the Republicans
should carry the election than give up the
fight for revenue reform, or, as we would
say, the fight against protection. Mr.. WAT
TERsoN has distinctly said that such is his
position.
The Lynchburg platform is our platform.
1t is the platform on which the Democrats
Of PENNSYLVANIA, Ohio, and New Jersey
stood last year. 1t is the PAYNE platform.
1t is the RANDALL platform. II the Ledger
will stand with us on that platform we
shall regard 1T as very sound incidental
protectfonist.
