Rev. pr. Hatfield's views Every Vote for


Rev. DR.. Hatfield's views-Every Vote for =
Third Ticket One for Democracy.
Rev. r. NJ Hatfield the distinguished Meth
odist divine has written a letter addressed to
the Prohibtionists of Illinois, but which is just
as applicable in Indiana He says:
The absurd notion that temperance Demo =
Gratis viii Jeopafqize the success of their party
oy voting Prohibition ticket will be effectually
disposed of within the next two months Demo-
Gratis may vote for temperance in some States
IN which they have nothing to lose but not one
IN hundred of them will vote for prohibition in
limos This assertion Is based not only upon
the history OF the party in the past, but upon
reliable information as to the actual condition Of
the politics of the State at the present time.
Every vote cast for St John and Hobbs rem
ders more probable the election Of Cleve-
land and Harrison Their election means a
tacit Endorsement Of the moral character Of the
bachelor Of Buffalo and the supremacy of the
whisky power in Illinois. To secure such a re-
suit the brewers. distillers and liquor-dealers
can we'll afford to put out their money by
tens OF thousands of dollars, as they are now
doing. Aud we are told by the advocates of
the third party that a carnival of rum and row
dylsm may not be a bad thing for the State and
the country that things must pe worse before
they can be better Let the evils of intemper-
ance be aggravated until they become intolera-
ble, and the people will rise in their indignant
might and sweep them. away One wonders to
what source such persons so for their system o.
ethics. 1t certainly is not to the good old
book, that foPbids us to do evil that good may
