A BABY DRUNKARD.
A Little Slx-year-Old Boy Found
Drunk.

Thomas Diner, laborer resid-
ing on Eighth Street, yesterday
walked Into the Office of Magistrate
McClintock, leading by the hand
his six-year-old son, George, whose
nose was badly bruised. The faith
ers story was that a saloon keeper,
Moran, had on two occasions sold
his son liquor, the last time being
on Sunday. The liquor was pur-
chased in a bottle, and the lad
drank it in an alley, where he was
found in shocking state Of intox-
ication by two policemen, who car
ried him to the station house. The
boy received his injuries by falling
when drunk. Diner demonstrated
with the saloon-keeper, but the lat
ter said he would sell liquor to
whom he pleased. .
why did you buy the whisky?
inquired the Magistrate of the lad.
Because I wanted it, was the re-
ply.
Did you like it?'
Yes, but it made me sick, said
the boy.

The Iowa Funeral.
The Corpse Must and Shall be Read5

Francis Murphy preached an ell
oquent and touching sermon at
the burial of the much despised sa-
loon system of Iowa, at Indepen-
dence, last Friday,-Dubuqete Pro
hibittonaSt.
WARNING. - In view of the
threats of the Dubuque brewers to
continue business in defiance of
law. the ProhibitiomiSt gives these
words Of warning:
/. Any citizen can shut you up
at any moment and you will be Ii
able to fine and imprisonment.
viii you wish to pay $1,000 fine,
and be imprisoned besides?
2. Your property is liable to be
confscated, and that which you
have accumulated be swept away
in day by your follow ing the adj
vice of your supposed interests.
8. You have not the local city
to fight; but the whole State of
Iowa is determined that this law
shall be respected and obeyed.
Against all rebels the blow will
be struck by the State, andin spite
of local prejudices, you will pay
your fine, lose your property and
go to jail. AS better friend to
yourself and your families than
yourself, we appeal to you to quit
the business.
4. A drummer" for a malt
house told the brewer in Bellevue,
not to buy car load Of malt. He
said, Il have been all over the
State and l know that the law will
be enforced, and you had better
govern yourself accordingly
5. Gentlemen, too long have we
suffered the curse of your business;
we have tried to restrain its rava-
ges by license, and at every turn
you have tried to defeat us and the
law, Now we propose prehibi-
ton, and that strictly enforced,an
struggle to the end in order to
annihilate your business. We do
this in order to save our young
people, and if possible, you, from
present and eternal ruin.

Keep il out of Politics

The National Brewers Associa~
ton, in convention at Rochester,
N. Y, adopted the following reso-
luton:
WHEREAS, AS temperance politi-
clans instigate and make use of
such misrepresentation, and aided
by sentimentaiism, hypocrisy, self
ishness and fanaticism on the one
hand, and laudable, honest, but
misdirected intention on the 9th err,
to bring about the enactment of
prohibitory or unduly restrictive
laws, and thus drag our business
into politics, it is hereby
RESOLVED, That in self-defense,
the United States Brewers Associ-
alton is forced by its opponents to
abandon its policy Of political indie
pendence heretofore maintai ned as
one Of its principles: we shall in
the future exert our influence in
support Of that political party
which adopts and carries out an
unprejudiced, national, discrimina-
ting and tolerant policy in the le-
gal treatment Of our business, and
IN dealing with the problem of in
temperance in the true sense OF
this much abused word.

sEArTLEs ATTITUDE.
IYakina SiRnall

IL seems 70 be the notion OF n certain
element Of the Republican party that
tnose OF the party who oppose land
grants and believe in equal taxation
and fair play for the whole people
should keep still and content them
selves with voting for the railroad can
oidaees- To this ass lmptiou the SkAr-
lie PosT-lsTnLIGKScKR responds as
follsvs:
Oar neiehbor 10 troubling himself
WITH little or no cause. Our citizens
VIII have no extraordinary demand 70
make upon the convention. They will
expect the members of the convention
10 act IN the most free, independent, in
teiliRent and worthy manner, without
bias or prejudice, and with a view to the
general good Of the whole people. II
the convention does not prove itself
worthy OF the trust imposed in it, there
VIII be q commoti0n Of the most lively
character in the Republican party this
rail-. no matter who the candidates are.
and II the convention does do the right
thing this town and county will support
1t heartily in the campaign and at the
polls. Four thousand voters in King
county will await with deep interest the
action of the coming Territorial Repuh-
lican Convention"
The attitude of Seattle is entirely
and proper. She gives ample
warning in advance that the people of
King county will not support the nomi-
nee of the Republican Convention un.
less he is worthy of support. This is
not said in the interest of any local as
pirant whom Seattle is trying to force
1pon the Convention, but is simply
for fairness and right. In
'pite of opposition from a land ring,
which derives its sanction and aid from
he railroad company, the entsrprising
people OF King county have built up
thriving city, have developed mines,
lave cleared away forests and planted
n the stead factories, farms, furnaces,
and the varied other insti- |
utione belonging TO civilized industry.
Very naturally the people of that coun- |
v object to having their lands and |
coal fields longer tied mp from |
settlement, or given TO company |
which is using its influence to build up
rival town and county.
