THE REPUBLICANS HAVE no USE
FOR THEN.

The Bear Lake Democrat-which.
next to the Boise Democrat, is the
leading organ OF the Mormon church
I" this Tsrrtory-is about to change
Its name to the "Southern Idaho Indie.
pendent" 1t will also change its 20.
litical complexion to this extent that
instead Of openly advocating Mormon.
Democratic preponderance, as hereto.
fore, it will straddle the political
fence, and claim to be neutral as be-
tween tho two great parties, while en-
deavo1ing to placate the Republi.
cans, with the view of securing more
consideration from its Democratic al.
lies.
This game is too transparent to win.
And even If it were not So, and the
Mormons were sincere in their profes.
sion" OF friendship for the Republi.
cans, the latter have no sort of use for
them. Tho Normons are a set Of !e.
cherous. ianor."t, priest ridden scrubs
whose very touch deiles anyone SO
unfortunate Is to be brought IN con.
tact with them. Aud il the Repuhli.
cans were to enter into any compact
with them, they would deserve to be
forever deprived OF their rig hts of cit
izenship.
Go to, scrubs! Remain with your
Democratic allies.

RUINS VICTIM.

"YOu have indeed fallen low" was
the sad remark of Justice Scion B.
Smith at the Tombs, New York city, to
an aged man, who showed every indi-
cation of a tramp.
"FOr Gods sake, forgive me, SOl,''
pleaded the man. "LiquOr has been

will be changed man. l will quit
drinking and make solemn vow that
not another drop of that poison will
pass my lips again"
at has now such a strong hold up
on you that you couldn't stop it if you
tried ever so hard" remarked the
judge. "And, besides, where could
you go? You have no home; your
wife won't recognize you any more,
and your friends pass by with horror
and disgust"
"Well, what of that 2" said the pris-
Oner. ~ can live on forty millions,

"FOrty millions7 Why, you haven't

"Why, I've earned it to be sure.
Where else do you think ?"
"Drinking has somewhat Overbal-
anced your mind, and I'll change the
complaint against you into insanity"
said the court. "You will be treated
better in an asylum than in the work
house. Officer, remove him."
please, judge, will you let another
officer take him ?" said Court Officer
Maurice Finn, whose eyes were filed
with tears.
"Why can't you ?" said the justice in
tone of surprise.
"He was my general in the war,
your honor" said Finn, ''and he was
so kind to me that l don't like to re-
pay him in this way, though l know it
is done for his good. He treated the
men who fought under him as he
would his brothers. 1t is sad for me,
sir, to see my old dear commander in
such position as this, and l and
others will see that he is properly car
ed for at the asylum"
The man was none other than Brig
adler General Thomas w. Eagan, who
fought in the battle of Gettysburg un-
der General Meade, and was partici-
pant of almost every battle at that
time. At the close of the war he was
made an internal revenue officer.

THE HAVOC OF DRINK.

Father Burke, in an address before
the New Jersey Catholic Temperance
Union, narrated the following, illus
trative of the awful havoc caused by
strong drink:
81 was on a mission some years ago
in a manufacturing town in England.
L was preaching there every evening,
and a man came to me one evening af-
ter sermon on the subject of drunk
enness. He came ina fine man a
strapping, healthy, intellectual looking
man. But the eye was almost burnt
in his head, the forehead was furrOwed
with premature wrinkles. The hair
was steel-gray, though the man was
evidently comparatively young. He
was dressed stability scarcely a shoe
to his feet, though it was wet night.
He came in to me excitedly after the
sermon, but the excitement had some
thing of drink in it. He told me his
history. Il don't know he said, that
there is any hope for me; but still as
was listening to the sermon, 1 must
speak to you. If don't speak to some
one my heart will break tonight.
Twenty years before he had amass-
ed in trade 100000 or 100000. He
had married an Irish girl-One of his
own race and creed, young, beautiful
and accomplished. He had two sons
and daughter-a woman. He told
me for a certain time everything went
on well. 'At last he said, Il had the
misfortune to begin to drink; neglect
ed my business, and then my business
began to neglect me. The woman saw
poverty coming, and began to fret and
lost her health. At last when we were
paupers she sickened and died. l was
drunk he said, 'the day that she died.
| sat by her bedside. | was drunk
when she was dying
'.'The sons what became of them p
"'Well,' he said, 'they were mere
children. The eldest of them is no
more than 10, and they are both trans
ported as robbers to Australia. l sent
the girl to school where she was we'll
educated. She came home to me when
she was Is years of age, a beautiful
woman. She was the one consolation
had, but l was drunk all the time.
DO you ask me about that girl p he
said, what became of her p And as if
the man was shot down he went, with
his head on the floor. Sod of heaven
God of heaven! She is on the streets
tOnight-a prostitute The moment
he said that word he ran out. | went
after him. ooh ! no, oh ! no. he said,
there is no mercy in heaven for me. l
left my child on the street' He went
away cursing God, to meet drunk
ards death. He had sent a broken
hearted mother to the grave, he sent
his two sons to perdition he sent his
only daughter to be living hell, and
then he died disappearing God.

Dry Wood Cheapest.

There is great loss of heat in burn.
ing wood not thoroughly dried. A
years supply should always be pro-
vided in advance. 1t not only gives
most heat but rusts the stove less than
green wood does when burned.
