THE FROZEN TRUTH.

In its first issue after the re-suhmis-
sion convention the REGISTER said,
ut is the old temperance fight over
again. The issue and the only issue in
this county campaign is, shall prohi-
bition remain in our constitution, and
shall the law be enforced ?" Every
development in the campaign, from
that.day to this, has furnished addition
al proof of those statements. The re-
submission candidates-we mean those
for county attorney and representative,
the only ones who hope to be elected
have appealed for their election, from
the beginning of the campaign to the
end of it, to the lowest elements of So
ciety and to the basest passions and
vices of mans nature. Is it not so?
On the score of personal friendship
they may receive the support of h few
honest, law-abiding and pure men.
But the men they have counseIed
with, the men to VIII ose active efforts
they will owe their election-if they
get it-are the men, without exception,
who have been convicted, at the bar of
public opinion, if not in the courts, of
repeated and premeditated violation of
the laws. Is that otalso true? Every
man who has, for the past three years,
been seheming and plotting how he

islature. through one of the most I'M
portant terms we have had for many
wears. On all the great questions un-
der consideration he was always right.
Always in his seat, always to be de.
pended on when any work was to be
done. he came to be universally look
ed upon as one of the most efficient
men in the house. For what reason
should he now be set aside and AL.
Jones put in his place? No one CLAIMS
that he is any more honest than
Capt. Stewart. while it is generally
recognized that i'm the kind of ability
required in an efficient legislator he is
not nearly his equal. Allen county
wants the man at Topeka that can DO
her the most good. All fair minded
men must admA that as between s.
J. Stewart and A. G.. Jones there can
be no question as to the one that
would do us most honor.

For nearly three wears John Gordon

For nearly three years John Gordon
attempted to practice law in lola.
Twice during that time he was can
didate for justice of the peace. At one
of those times the people of lola de-
cided they would rather have Judges
Boyd and Christy as their magistrates,
and at the other they preferred Messrs.
Harris and Moorehouse to Mr.. Gordon.
During all his career as lawyer he
has never won case before the Dis
trict Court by his own unaided efforts.
He was finally obliged to abandon the
law because the people would not give
him business enough to make him a
living. Do these same people who
had not confidence enough in him
when he was practicing law on his
own account to give him business
enough to keep him alive,-do those
people wish now to have him hired by
the year to look after the legal BUSH
ness of the entire county? Do they
wish to hire him as the legal advisor
of the county commissioners and other
county officers, when they had not
confidence enough i'm his judgment to
trust their private business in his
hands?

might violate the law and yet escape
lite nenalty: every man who has been
secretly or openly selling whiskey, or
who wants to engage In the tramc,
will vote for John Gordon and Al

why do these men cast their influence
for those candidates? The only rea-
eon there can be is that they expect

willing to accept such state of affairs.

REMEDY FOR STUMBLING HoRsEs.-
Some good horses are addicted to
stumbling while walking or moving in
slow trot, says the Stockmau. A
well versed veterinarian states that
there are two causes that would tend
to produce this faulty action one a
general weakness in the muscular sys-
TEN, such as would be noticed IN tir-
ed horse, the other weakness of the
exterior muscles Of the leg, brought
about by carrying too much weight on
the toe To effect cure, he adds,
tighten the weight of each front shoe
about four ounces have the toe of the
shoe made of steel instead of iron. it
will wear longer have it rounded off
the same as it would be when one
third worn out, in order to prevent
tripping allow one weeks rest, have
the legs showered for a few minutes at
a time with cold water through hose,
in order 10 create spray then rub
dry briskly, from the chest down to the
foot. Give walking exercise daily this
week, for about an an hour, twice a
day. When you commence driving
again omit the slow jog either walk
or send him along at sharp trot for a
mile or two, then walk again, but do
not speed for at least several weeks.
BY this means the habit of stumb-
ling from either of the above causes
will be pretty well over come.

Soap Bubble Parties.

Soap bubble parties are the latest.
Twenty or thirty common clay pipes,
for as many young ladies and gentle
men, have ribbons of different colors
for every two, and are separated in
equal piles, from which each person
selects one, and, by matching colors,
finds a partner, so to speak, for the
blowing. On medium sized table
stands bowl Of soap and water. The
partners in turn blow bubbles, trying
three times, amid the efforts of the 9th
ers to annoy and embarrass them. The
one whose bubble remains uubroken
the longest is entitled to prize
Some of the prizes are painted plush
shaving and handkerchief cases, paint
ed picture frames, Russian leather toi-
let cases, blotters, plush boxes of writ
ing paper, and others are tasteful and
useful mementoes. AT recent party
all bore the date of the evening in gilt
letters. The pnzes are sometimes ex-
pepsive jewelry. There is always a
special prize given TO the one whose
bubble has lasted the longest Of all. a
judge selected before the blowing an-
nounces the decisions, After all have
blown their bubbles, the prizes are
drawn by numbers. Then come the
usual dances aud supper.

Wise Words.

He that swells in prosperity will
shrink in adversely.
Honor demanded is as worthless rs
insult undeserved is hurtless.
To despise our own species is the
price we must too often pay for a
knowledge of it.
There is not any revenge more
heroic than that which torments envy
by doing good.
The two great movers Of the human
mind are the desire of good and the
fear of evil.
The first ingredient in conversation
Is truth, the next good sense, the third
good humor, and the fourth wit.
Open your mouth and your purse
cautiously, and your stock Of rcputa-
