The Republicans and the Prohf

To the Editors of The Chicago Journal.
PROPuErSrOWN, ILL.,, June IS. In your issue
of June II, in speaking of the platform adopt
ed 10y the Republican National Convention, you
say, ut contains no evasion | want 10 ask,
does IL not eyade the temperance question: II
the Republican party is going to totally ignore
party, it is time those who believe In temper
aueC withd 'cw from it and joined party that
does not slight SO important question rs this
\ SUBSCRIBER.
Says the Jouual.'-"We must be
plain and candid with "A Subscriber.
We must frankly inform him that
the reason why the Republican Ma
tional Convention ignored the tenn
perance question is that, by indors-
ing either prohibition or anti-prohi-
bition, or interfering in any way
whatever with the subject, the Re
publican party would be defeated at
the polls in nearly every State in the
Union. And defeat is precisely the
thing the Republican party desires
TO avoid. The defeat of the Repub.
hcan party would mean the installa-
tion Of the Democratic party into
power-the party that is VIGOROUSLY
the ally and the champion Of every
evil thing in social and political
life.
The time may come - probably
will come-when The question of
suppressing the manufacture and
sale Of intoxicating liquors will be
an issue in the general politics OF

of success at national election for
a generation to come. That is the
wisest thing said by any Democrat
or any assistant Democrat since the
campaign opened.

A DEMOCRATIC paper says; "Ihe
Independent Republicans insist that
Mr.. Blaine is the embodiment of all
that is not Republicanism." Meth
er the Democrats, who are not Re
publicans at all, nor the "indepen-
DENTS" who do not constitute a
thousandth part of per cent. of the
Republicanism of the country, are
good authority as to what consti-
tutes Republicanism. The Repub-
licans who support Blaine and Logan
constitute the only tribunal to de
side what is and what is not Repub-
licanism.

IF the Prohibitionists are really
anxious to defeat the Republican
party and help the Rum Democracy
into power in the Executive office
and the Legislature, as their actions
indicate, why don't they come out
flat-footed at once and pronounce
for the Democracy? What's the
use of "whipping the devil around
the stump" by going through the
absurd motions of running an indie
pendent ticket that stands as much
chance of being elected as its sup
porters do of riding to the planet
Jupiter on a streak of lightning?
THE more intelligent Irishmen are
for Blaine and Logan. Fifteen hun
dred Irish American Land Leaguers
are organizing to vote for Blaine and
Logon in Cincinnati. The Boston
Pilot, the leading Land League or
gan of Massachusetts,, says Blaine
and Logan can beat any ticket the
Democrats may nominate. A SINH
lar feeling is develping among the
Irishmen of Chicago and Milwau-
kee. They want a man for presi-
dent who has the courage to protect
American interests and American
citizenship, and they think Blaine is
just the man for that.

THE measure which passed the
United States Senate last week,
known as the "Utah BILL" Furnishes
the crime of bigamy or polygamy
by imprisonment, and by certain
severe provisions renders the con
tinuance of the plural-wiyes system
almost impossible. The same bin
looks to The gradual abolition Of the
monstrous religious tyranny and
business monopoly in Utah known
as "The Church of Christ of Latter
Day Saints" The bill now goes to
the House for concurrence.

On the occasion Of a serenade,
rendered him by his fellow citizens
at Augusta, last week, Mr.. Blaine
made one of the most remarkable
speeches of the year. Mr.. Blaine
finds the radical cause of his defeat
in the abuse OF the freedom of suf.
frage which gives every Democrat
in certain Southern States the com.
mand of from one to three votes be-
sides his own. This is an old story,
but 1t is none the less a true one.
The Southern Democrats vote in
their ex-slayes as we'll as for them
selves, and every electoral vote in
the North represents twice as many
free popular suffrages as an elector-
al vote in the South.

A terrible state of affairs is

A terrible state Of affairs is re.
ported from the western border
counties of Virginia. For the past
three weeks a deadly plague has
been prevalent there. and at least
1000 persons, in population not
to exceed $4,000 haye died. The
nature Of the disease is yet undetin-
ed but 1t is supposed to arise from
poisonous water. The drought
there for months has nearly dried
all the streams, springs and wells,
and tits supposed the water left is
impregnated with mineral poison.
A gentleman who has just come
through the infected district says
water is so scarce that in many in
stances the blood OF dying animals
is used to cook their food. Blood
is also freely drank. Gladesville,
KY, is almost depopulated, and q
graveyard is about all that remains
OF L ebanan.
