ON SABLE ISLAND

The treatment received on the island by
the shipwrecked peopleis described by Mr..
Ludwig as outrageous. With the excep-
ton Of the man in charge and two others,
he states they might Just as well have fallen
among brutes. When they landed they had
had nothing 10 eat for two days, and IL was
hours before anything could be OBJ
tanned. rs messengers had TO be sent
10 the main station. fifteen miles
away, Cor provisions. Calm weather con-
tinued for several days after, and Captain
Lucas and some OF his men were able to
return 10 the Amsterdam several times for
effects on board. but they found he water
rising and falling in the steamers hold, and
no hope Of saving her. The passengers
speak In terms Of high praise OF the cour-
agcous behavior OF Captain Lucas, and
DIR. Ludwig particularly requested the
Herald correspondent 10 mention this fact.
The following are the names OF those in
the saloon:

Local Option Defeated.

We have not been able to procure the
Official returns Of the vote on local option
ON Saturday, but learn the total vote In the
precinct was between 400 and 500. the full
vote being some 600. The free whlskeyltes
claim majority Of l07, ISL at this place
and 80 at stringtown.
Tho explanation In brief Of thisrsSult lies
In the facts. that while the whisky party was
thoroughly organized, and brought In every
negro and mexican voter. aud imported n
good many who were not legal voters, using
money freely for that purpose, the friends
Of prohibition were not thus interested.
Many Of them being busy on their farms
did not come to the election. and there was
a lack of organization, and vigorous, hearty
work. Had the full prohibition force came
out with determination 10 win, We believe
the result would have been different, not
withstanding tho unfair methods resorted to
by the opposition.
But the great mistake was In not having
the vote taken some months sooner. before
the saloon men had recovered from the
shock of the murder last winter, and before
the political canvass came on which made 1t
the interest of candidates TO ''sit down" on
the movement. Then Il would have carried
without trouble

That Hanging-Who Was Hurt Z

After the close Of the election on local
option on Saturday, the free whiskey party
celebrated the victory ~ by a general
iollihcation ON the public square at night.
Among the other proceedings, the editor
of the FREE Press was hung in efiigy.
We cannot but regard this as high COM
pliment-the highest, at any rate, theparties
who did It were capable of paying us. 1t
showed that they realized that We had given
them some very effective blows, and that
they felt themselves unable to respond,
save by this incipient form of mobocracy.
The act is disclaimed by most of the
whisky party. We are willing to believe
that some of them had, at least, more good
sense than to do such deed, and that they
regret the act, at least to the extent that
they fear it may damage their cause.
The devil is reported to be very shrewd,
and we know good many people who seem
to have more faith in him then they have
in the Almighty; but we have frequently
had occasion to notice that he (Old Nick) is
very apt to over reach himself, and the case
before us we think will be found to present
notable illustration of this fact. He
affords the best possible illustration of the
old adage: "Give him rope, and he will
hang himself.
One point more, for the consideration of
our people generally. Suppose that now, at
the beginning of another 'bloody-shirt" presi-
Dental campaign at the north, this incident
should-as it not unlikely will-get into some
the leading newspapers of that section and
Ego the rounds;" would it not be taken as
evidence of the truth at least of the charge
of the prevalence of alawless spirit in Texas ?
And would it do any good to our town and
county We refer to this merely to say,
that however good any community may be,
they cannot afford to allow handful Of
their worst element to thus come to the
front and hold themselves out to the world
"a representinp such community,
