The Third District,
REPUBLICANS SOLIDLY SUPPORT THE
POPULAR YOUNG CANDIDATE FOR
CONGRESS-.

CONGRESS.
The Milwaukee Sentinel says: RE
ports from Ill parts of the Third District
indicate thorough union of all Repub-
licans in support of Mr.. La Toilette
The Hon. PhilO A. Orion, who had been a
prominent candidate himself before the
convention, presided at a meeting re-
Gently held at Darlington aud made II
stirring address. After mature de-
liberation, said he, i have come to the
conclusion that under the circumstances
Mr.. La Follctte's nomination was the
most fitting that could have been made in
the convention This tribute to Mr.. La
Toilette called out ringing applause
The Monroe Sun SAYS: .Robnrt Nj.
La Toilette, our Republican congress
sional nominee, is representative
young American. But. young man,
he has achieved IN honorable name in
this State, a portion OF whose people
have just conferred upon him one of her
richest political prizes, for the nomina-
ton is equivalent to an election. Mr..
La Toilette is one of the brilliant coterie
of young men who are making their
mark in this portion of the country"
And "AIr. La Toilette is Il man of i'm
mense personal popularity. He be-
longs to that class Of self-made men
who are strong and popular because
they have not built up their own
fortunes by destroying those of other
people. He is a man of sound iudg-
ment and practical sense as well as
fixedncss and honesty of purpose If
the days are coming again when there
will be less talk, more work. and a
higher standard of morality in congress,
such men as Robert NJ L. Toilette
should be sent there. He will be a
useful representative for this district :"

The farmers of the Third district are
strongly opposed to Burr w Jones, be-
cause of his support Of the Morrison
Tariff bill and his opposition to the res
toration Of the tariff on wool, in which
they are directly interested.
Ex-senator Matt Anderson, of La
Crosse, a well-known farmer and Demo
crat. is reported to have said that he
thought Mr.. Jones had made grave
mistake IN voting with the Democratic
majority for reduced tariff. Mr.. Ander-
son has made special study Of the
tariff. and his views have frequently
been printed in the reports Of the State
Agricultural society. He is convinced
that protection is the only true policy
for the farmer. and the refusal of the
Democratic party to restore the duty on
wool he regards As a serious mistake.

Brian O'Lin.

Brian O'Lin had no breeches to wear.
He bought him sheepskin to make
him pair;
Flesh side out and wool side in
They're charming warm says Brian
O'Lin.
A rural poet sends us the following
parody on the above well known Irish
ditty:
j. M. O'Lin has but one lea,
Wen give him another to make him a
pair.
His canvass for Cleveland is really too
thin,
Twill be warm in November for him
and O'Lin.
We quote from an exchange the fol-
lowing, ON the fallacy of National Pro-
hibition:
Suppose for the sake of argu-
ment that thirty States gave their con-
sent to the incorporation of a prohibi-
ton amendment to the Constitution,
even then would the people consent to
the enforcement of the amendment bv
ilCtuVdo NHlCH WOuiu Involve the NlOfd-
ton of the first principles OF Il republic
can form of government? To
enforce prohibition would require a
central department at the national Cap
ital and sub-departments at every State
Capital 1t would require Federal Of
iicers in every city, town, and village in
the United States, and agents and Mar
shals to equip them. In every county
there would have TO be tribunals, estab-
lished for the prosecution of liquor
selling, and Judges, Marshals, clerks,
and bailitls to run them. An army of
Federal constablcs, costing millions,
would have TO be appointed, and as the
law would be instantly defied in every
State and in every county, an army of
detectives would have to be employed,
with the power to search stores, bust
ness houses, and private residences at
any time. The National Government
would have absolute power over every
household. The relations between the
State and National Government would
be completely broken down. The cost
of such Il system would add immensely
TO the burden of taxation, and nothing
would be accomplished in the end

Mr.. DIN S Speech.


Mr. j. NJ. DIN, of Madison, spoke to
a good sized audience Friday night,
October 3rd, in the Court House. So
long as he confined his remarks to the
temperance question he was eloquent
and spoke to good purpose, but his polit-
zeal position was not 50 well sustained.
Ii is easy to fire shots at great political
party. 1t is a big mark. But the Re
publican Goliath is not yet slain by the
Prohibition David with his little sings.
Before the sonorous ring of his voice
had died away, the monstrous unfairness
OF charging the Republican party with
the responsibility of not having rooted
out the great evil Of intenperance from
our land, arose before the mind. Now
if this and that were so, says Mr.. DIN,
st. John would be our next president. "
Bat neither Mr.. DIN nor any other sen
sible man has any expectation that he
will be. And if he were, what then?
What authority has the President or
even Congress, under the constitution
(Mr. Olin's opinion cas- lawyer to
the contrary, Notwithstanding, lover the
liquor traffic in the states? Still Mr..
DIN says it is national question"
and the only national question He
says he is not working for the Demo
Gratis. He is working to defeat the Re-
publicans, which would amount TO the
same thing, and it was very noticeable
that it was easier for him to SANDER the
Republican party than the Democrats.
He gave them more than five times rs
much of his time and of his sarcasm.
His arguments were well chosen for his
purpose. Ii one admitted his premises
they must accept his conclusions. But
can arguments like these have force to
cause Republicans who believe in the
principles of their party to cast their
ballots for st. John, and help to elect
Cleveland and put in power party bit
terly opposed to prohibition?
