The Establishment or Churches.

1t is with much qualification that the
KEYSTONE beholds the gradual institu-
ton of churches and Sunday schools in
our housekeeping pace as they are
with the forward strides OF our in
dustrial growth--and it is with pleasure
that we feel the presence of n
population ever ready to assist
and encourage that which alone
portrays the sublimest features Of life
worth living; that which isan indespensi-
BILE influence upon the culture and
growth Of the rising youth, and that by
which the general character of town
assumes under all conditions, the most
favorable considerations from all people.
The KEYsToEE's highest aim in this
connection is absolute impartialty and
just representation of every good cause
or enterprise, and with an interest and
esteem common to all, it shall endeavor
to maintain its only practicable stand AS
common guardian to all denommina-
tions, MS all denominations must event
unlly come to unite in strength OF sup
porting and lifting up the needy souls
about them. All shall have a friendly
greeting from tho KEYSTONE. and all
shall share an equal, impartial encour-
agement.
II, as matter OF news, at any time we
publish that concerning new eeclesiasti-
cal projects that shows us TO be at fault,
and that can exert any possible detri-
mental influence, we can only say we
are sorry, as my man would be to cast
an unconsciously harmful reflection
upon any righteous cause.
We esteem the energy of one man rs
much MS that of another, and while we
hope the followers of Union church will
continue to support and build up that
organization, we hope that all good
Methodist Episcopals will combine their
power to sustain and encourage the en-
terprising spirit of the Rev. Mr.. Joslyn
in the construction of good church for
that denomination. The minister, with
nothing but personal energy and bodily
ability, who undertakes to effect such
grand results as have already been Civ
en- and reasonably promised the people
of Ketehum, is certainly most deserv-
ing man and shonld be sustained by a
liberal contribution of aid from those
for whose good he is at work.
Denominationsl churches we will have
and denominations churches we must
have eventually; therefore. when men,
Der of one finds his own place under the
guidance of another. there should be no
hard feeling at his departure; no dis
ruptions; no storms; no contests; but
peace, concord and continued prosperi-
ty for all.

WHEN lawyer Coneilson, of Mt Sterling,
KY, was beating Judge Reid on account of a
decision that he did not approve, he was only
following precedent set by others Buford,
few years ago, did not like the decision of
Judge Elliott, and taking the matter into his
own hands, he sought him out and killed
him. Buford was acquitted on a plea of in
sanity. But the world has rolled over many
times since then, and the people have learned
that it is dangerous to despise law and order,
and to nut q premium on assassins Cornell

All the Republican and two of the Democratic
members of the board thereupon refused to
sign the certificates of election of any of the
city officers. But the new officers were sworn
in without the certificates being signed as the
law requires The seating Of Brown gives the
Democrats two-thirds majority, and enables
them to elect both police justices, instead Of
only one, as would otherwise be the case,
They propose to elect these justices immedi-
ately upon organizing, and to rectify the cler-
ical error afterwards and give Taylor the seat
to which he was elected. 1t will not always
be thus. The day will come when the popu-
lar sense of justice will not tolerate such sharp
practice. This is petty thing, but the prin-
ciple is vicious and subversive of justice 1t
is dangerous thing to inculcate such ideas as
being tolerable in politics.

Gallery of Modern Masters.

L. Schick, of 1873 Lake street, Chicago, has
published in twelve parts what is felictously
called gallery of modern masters, being a
selection of artistic reproductions from promi-
nent modern works, of painting and sculpture.
The plates, eight in number to each part, are ae-
companied by explanatory notes The subjects
chosen are each and all of the very best pro-
auctions of the times, being drawn from the
most noted English, French and German mas
ters The execution of the cuts is faultless, and
as a result each part furnishes eight handsome
engravings printed on heavy paper and suitable
for framing or for large art portfolio. They
are not bound, and are there
fore in shape to use in either Of the manner

To the Editor of the indianapolis journal:
have carefully read the letter Of your CORE

party ought to take in regard to the temperance
question, and differ widely from the Journal in
dorsement The evil results growing out of the
election of Polk in 1874, may now be overdrawn,
but the annexation of Texas and tho rebellion
would certainly not have been prevented by the
election of Clay. His opposition was very mild,
and if he had been elected the South by the aid
of Northern doughfaces, would have won, with
very little delay In 1874 Henry Clays anti
slavery principles had pretty well oozed out 1t

IT is to be regretted that there is some OPP
position to the soldiers monument, now fairly
on the way toward tardy success. The argu
ment that it is not right that soldiers should
erect a monument to themselves is just plaus
ible enough to make trouble. But taking it at
its face, there can be no objection to the vet
Grams of Indiana aiding and leading the move
ment to honor their dead comrades in arms.
Almost as well might it be claimed that In
dianians should not build such a monu-
ment because the soldiers were In
dianians The people of the State,
anxious to contribute, desired that the
ex-soldiers Of Indiana take charge of the en-
terprise, not in the sense of honoring them
selves, but as guaranty of energetic and sue
cessful management. 1t will hardly be
claimed that soldier can be found within the
borders of Indiana who will not want to con-
tribute something if he is able. If they con-
tribute, why not accept the trust of manage
mentg Surely nobody would misunderstood
the spirit of the veteran who is willing to
honor those who died and those who faithfully
served nation and State. Let the work go on
to successful completion. No undertaking Of
magnitude was ever begun without opposition.
Among those who think the enterprise is not
only commendable but a sacred duty, there is
a genuine feeling of regret that everybody is
not enthusiastically in favor Of it as managed
by the Grand Army of the Republic. Ger
tainly no exception, per Sc, can be taken to
the custodians of the subscription. The peo-
pie have asked the Grand Army to do this as
favor and thus far the proposition has been
accepted in the spirit in which it was con-
ceived. sra

is the duty of the Republican party to meet the
live and practical questions of the day. We have
had the control of the government for over
twenty years, and have done nothing to
give the colored people free ballot during the
past ten years, nor will our convention at Chi
cago propose any radical change. The control
and suppression of the lawless, dangerous, ter
rlble liquor traffic has become a necessity, and
the reasoning of this letter in answer to a pro-
hlbltion friend will be Endorsed by three-fourths
OF those engaged in the traffic in this State. TO
90 nothing except use moral suasion is the
liquor platform; worse, it is the Democratic
platform, Why Republican politicians can See
anything honorable, patriotic, profitable to
enter into competition with the Democratic
party for the beer and whisky vote, passes
comprehension. 1t is equally incom-
prehensible how an earnest tenn
perance man can favor license. Under license
the traffic has grown to such proportions
and power, that it practically owns the Demo
cratic party leaders, big and little and 1 fear
our politicians are envious of the good thing
their opponents have, in their alliance with the
traffic There is no more patriotism in yielding
to the demands that the corrupt liquor leauge
are now making on the political parties, than
there were in yielding to the demands of the
sale of liquor, as beverage, is a crime, will have
to be treated as such to suppress it, and the
voters of this State and country who believe this
fact will not be trified with much longer. / can
be nothing but a Republican, but will have no
alliance with the liquor traffic. l don't want to
vote with those engaged in the business, nor
will vote for them, nor those fayoring the
traffic if know it. B. F. SPENCER.

VICE PRESIDENT WILSON said of the re-
preston of the liquor traffic I'm my judg
ment, there is but one way in which this re-
suit can be reached. The church must take
up the matter. 1t must become one of the
living issues in the moral warfare in which it
is engaged" 1t will be bad day for the
moral warfare when any phase of it shall be
made partisan political question. Neither
the country nor the moral warfare can afford
to have partisan politics carried on upon that
plane

THE New York Legislature is trying to pass
law providing for the probating of wills be-
fore the death of the testator. As there is no
provision in the act for keeping the contents
Of the will secret until after the testator's
death, it seems highly improbable that many
wealthy citizens will take advantage of the
law should it become one. The great ineon-
venience likely to result from publicity of
their intentions will cause most milhonaires to
leave the document to its fate after the usual
methods -s

son will yet discover that he lives in an age
when the people of his State are awakening to
a better sense of justice. His dastardly as
sault on Judge Reid will not be regarded as
heroic, and the indications are that Judge
Reid will be generally approved in declining
to descend to brutal and criminal methods of
seeking redress for imaginary wrongs. The
time is not far distant when even in Kentucky

its perpetrator to prison. 1t would be well to

That Distinguished Republicans Letter.


To the Editor of the indianapolis journal:
The letter in your issue of yesterday from an
old prominent and distinguished Republican,
relative to the duty of voters who are Pro
hibitionists as well as Republicans, see receives
some attention from 7. A Goodwin to-day, but
he overlooks. or at least does rot notice many of
the weak points Of the anonymous communica-
ton.
l do not profess to be able to dissect it prop
erly, but would like to call the attention of read
ers to one inexcusable bunder or intentional
Misrepresentation it is difficult to decide which.
His language Isl "The only political question in
volved was this: whether no the people
should be allowed to pronounce for or against
this submission-not for or against the amend
ment Thus viewing the matter, the
Republican convention declared in favor of
submission, that is in favor of having the
amendment submitted to the Legislature" Sub
mitted to the Legislature, eh2 What old and
prominent Republican can be ignorant of the
fact that the amendment had been passed by a
former Legislature, over year before the CON
vention, and by it referred to the succeeding
Legislature, as provided by the Constitution
Who ever before heard of it being to be sub
mitted to the Legislature? The next thing in
order was for the Legislature to pass (re-pass OF
reject it, and then to the voters it would be to
be Submitted" How can any intelligent elector
forget that the Republican platform demanded
the submission of the prohibitory amendment
to ''the people at special election2"
Do we ever have special elections in the Leg
islature9 This attempt to satisfy Prohibitionists
with a plank favoring submission, and then
white it away till it only means the right of
'the people to pronounce for or against this sub
mission-not for or against the amendment'-is
a deliberate insult and husband will prove a con-
spicuous failure. WM. EDGERToN
DUNREITH, April %.
