The opponents of prohibition have

The opponents Of prohibition have
been telling us how great failure it
is in Iowa. They say the saloons are
running as usual, not having even the
restraint Of license law; that public
sentiment has changed, and that even
the ministers are Indifferent. Dr.
Herrick Johnson shows that these re-
ports are no more trustworthy than
those we are in the habit of seeing Of
extensive liquor-selling in Maine. He
has collected information from sourc.
es in which he has confidence, and
gives as the result the following:
Seven of the ninety-nine counties are
admitted to have saloons in open op-
Grafton; twenty-four are partly free
and partly under saloon dominance;
but in most Of these counties the law
is steadily gaining and the saloons are
being driven ont; in sixty-eight coun-
ties the law is enforced, and the re-
port is saloon gone" "Law works. y
"Clear of the traffic" etc. This is a
very satisfactory showing. Saloons
only disappear as they are driven out
Of existence; they have no regard for
law; and if they have been driven out
of seven-tenths of the counties of
Iowa, and are being driven out Of two
thirds of the remaining thirty coun-
ties, prohibition is doing all that could
be expected Of it. In some Of the
cities the saloons have been volunta-
rily paying money to the authorities
as sort Of license fee, and have gone
on without interference from the po-
lice.-N. Y. Independent.

tunes of the South that he claimed
never to have surrendered. He was
largely influential in carrying his
State into rebellion, and used as an
effective argument the prophecy that
there would be no blood shed, even
making the wild assertion that he was
willing to drink all the blood spilled
on both Sides" He was chiefly noted
for his extrayagant way Of saying
things, but after the war his sayings
sounded more like those of an end
man in a minstrel troupe, than like
those Of a statesman. He was an
enemy of West Point, and believed
in choosing for leaders men who had
never been to the Military Academy.
In private life Gen. Toombs is said to
have been a model, kind and affee-
tionate to his family. His life ended
just as that of Jeff Davis will end
by floating out Of the world in a
vague, enchanting dream about the
departed glory of the South.

o. r. Munger, the Salvation Army
Evangelist" at Washington c. H.
has beenarrested as an insane person.
For long time he has acted like
crank, saying and doing unreasonable
things. Recently his conduct reached
point where his family are said to
have regarded it as unsafe to remain
with him longer, and hence his arrest.
There have been innumerable cases of
insanity resulting from religious ex-
citement, a great portion of them
growing out of the peculiar idioey
called personal holiness" and 'high-
er light" When a man begins to
talk about special revelation" and
his ability to pray for and receive just
what he wants, he is taking the first
steps toward the asylum. A religion
that is not based upon common sense,
is dangerous thing to have around.
The emotional insanity which would
seize drunken hummer, or a thief,
in the street, and in the twinkling of
a eye transform him into spotless
angel, specially commissioned to teach
the gospel to perishing world, may
do to laugh about, but is not fit to
enter the thought Of an intelligent
man or woman.
Some Republicans have settled
down to the conviction that it would
be best for the Republicans of Hamil-
ton County to drop the fight against
fraud in that County. The argument
is that fraud is triumphant, for the
time being, and it were better to suf-
fer the wrong than to continue the
fight. This may be good logic in the
light of the present, but there is a
principle at stake which it would
scarcely be wise or safe to abandon.
If clerk of the Court of Common
Pleas in Hamilton County has greater
power than a great majority of the
voters of the County, it is some
what dangerous state of affairs.
When the Supreme Court of Ohio
decides that doctored returns must be
counted, and the frauds Of Democratic
bummers must stand unquestioned, it
is still more dangerous. On the
whole it would seem best to continue
the struggle as long as there appears
a ray of hope that the result of the
Democratic frauds can be wrested
from the schemers. If Democrats
can stuff ballot-boxes and raise the
figures on returns in 1885, what may
they not do ten years hence?

the chickens did not do as well as

lucky man concluded to give his
place name, and thus try to give a
boom also. He named it ''The Cleve-

changed! The business began to pay

he had not thought of this before.
So much was he pleased with the re-

We are certainly placed under very
great obligations to our brethren Of
the press for the complimentary no
tices Of the little volume of poems re-
Gently issued from this office. As
originally begun, the work was only
intended as present to friends, and
it was not the design of the author to
print more than a very few copies.
It was, therefore, placed before
the public without any revision from
the original copies, and without any
smoothing Of the rough corners.
The charitable manner in which the
little book was received by persons Of
such intelligence and learning as
those whose notices we have printed,
was a surprise to the author The

1.-The report OF the Commissioner
Of Internal Revenue shows that in the
past year there was an increase of the
retail liquor dealers in Maine and
Kansas, and only slight decrease in
Iowa. In these three States there are
6,649 persons holding licenses to sell
Intoxicating drinks, and Ill breweries
in operation. Such figures are hard
to reconcile with the declaration that
prohibitory laws are success
GIObe-Democrat.
The ''past year" means from April,
1884 to April, 1885. And when we
take into account the fact that thou
sands Of persons in the States named
are holding licenses who are not
permitted to sell Intoxicating drinks,
many Of whom are in Jail, and that
every drug store must have a license,
such figures are not ''hard to recon-
cile with the declaration that prohib-
itory laws are success" A true re-
port of the number of gambling
houses started in ST. Louis between
April, 1884, and April, 1885, would be
no evidence that there is a single
gambling house here now, or that our
gambling law is a failure. The ques-
tion is, not how many men are foolish
enough to get permit" from the
Government to engage in an unlaw-
full business, but how many are per-
mitted to engage in it.
In $40 Iowa townships 500 saloons
have been closed since April, 1884.
Every one of these had a Government
license which is included in the 6,649
licenses reported. In Topeka, Kansas,
alone, perhaps a hundred licenses are
reported, but not one Of them repre-
sents a saloon.-National american.
