which Will Ye Serve?

The Western Christian Advocate
recently published the platform .d
opted by The Ohio Republican Con
vention alongside OF memorial
from the temperance people Of the
State, asking the Republicans to
pledge resubmission of a constitu-
tional amendment and appropri-
ate legislation under the present
Censtit ution until II should be ad-
opted. This latter item. strange to
say, has not appeared in any Re-
publican papers in Ohio. In the
editorial department of the Adve-
cate Of the same issue appeared a
eulogistlc notice of Foraker, the Re-
publican candidate for Governor,
which stated that he was "a good
Methodist and CONSISTENT temper
ance man."
In few days the editsr of the
Advocate was overwhelmed with
letters. the tenor of which was !:
Could a good Methodist consistent
ly vote for man who says that tax
alton Is the proper way to regulate
the liquor traffic9 These letters
called out ringing editorial in last
weeks Advocate to the purport
that prohibition is the only thing
that prohibits, adding, "that is our
unalterable conviction now, and it
becomes more intense every day"
To complete the cruelty of his at
tack upon Foraker. the editor then
publishes in parallel columns the
resolution of the late Republican
Convention on this question and the
memorial of the temperance people,
which says: I'VE are unalterably
opposed TO the enactment of laws
that propose. by license, taxing or
otherwise, to regulate the drink
traffic." The Republican resolution
reads ."We demand legislation for
the regulation and taxation of the
liquor traffic.
Thus the editor invites q compar-
ison and slyly ask his brother Meth
odists viii ich they will serve, their
church or the Republican party p
Could Brother Foraker receive a
more cruel blow?-[Plttsburg Post.

The closing pages of General
Grants book will always possess
strange. a melancholy associa-
ton. When in the future the
leaves are scanned by men who
have watched the declining days
of the Generals life, the thought
will present itself that here and
there are passages, or pages, that
seem permeated with the agony
of deadly ulcer snawing at the
very heart strings of the writer.
Again will be presented sugges-
tions of a horrible gasping for
life and moments when the de-
spairing eye Of the author was
dimmed with the shadows of ap-
preaching night. All over these
closing pages will be scattered
hints of the old, indomitable en-
ergY that struggled on even when
grisly death stood over him with
upraised dart; of interminable
nights when fiiful sleep tortured
rather than rested, aud the dark
ness was full of grinning shapes
and frigh,ful visions of days
when the ear of nation was
bent sadly and revereAtly to
catch the feeble heartbeat to
lear. if perchance there yet
might be another hour, another
moment, Of life. No other wri-
ter has SO interviewer suffering,
death, even. into his works.
1t is not he suffering. the death
of others which are depicted al
leisure; buI the hearts blood
which makes the pages crimson
is that Of him who holds the pen.
II will afford a realistic compost
ton more effective than any
from the brush of the most un-
compromising of the French
school of painting. Inseparably
mingled With and forming a tan
gible element of the pages will
be the sentiments. the fleetine

vision. lie suffering at the clos
ing hours OF a life.

Gen. John Beatty and Don
Quixote McClintock, of the Re
publican Gazette, are beating the
atmosphere with terrible blasts
of sound, because the South they
say, is not represented.
There is properly grounds for
complaint. The Sonth has
not been properly represented.
When the Infamous guerilla,
Mosby. was made a consular
agent OF our government. the
south nor The heroic north, Meth
er, were represented. When the
Rebel Malone plays traitor to
his people, and through his
treachery places the q. S.
Senate into The hands of the Re-
publicans. he denies TO men of
the South their proper represen-
tation. 1t is not the poor darky
who is denied his legitimate rep
Iesentation in our COVER nment
affairs. 1t is the heroic men north
and south who are betrayed by
such men as Malone. and mis-
represented by such guerillas as
Mosby, provoking the honest re-
sentiment of the country. Yes.

For the Benefit Of Wool Grew
era.

Secretary Manning has discover
ed several abuses in the importation
of raw wool and he will soon issue
regulations governing the methods
of importing wool. The tariff law
provides low rate of duty for the
common varieties of wool introduc-
ed for carpet making, and a much
higher duty for the better classes OF
wool for other uses. 1t is charged
that the regulations and presidents
make it possible to import the finest
varieties of wool at the lowest rates
of duty on the statement of imPor
tiers that it Is to be used in carpet
making. Tho Treasury authori-
ties propose to check these abuses
and have the duty appraised on the
quality of wool and not on the i'm
porters statement of the use to which
it is TO % put.

and the notorious prostitution that
infests our town.

The situation, manifest to many,
10 not so much the fault of our mu-
nicipal authorities. as it is of the cit
zens. The Mayor and his executive
officers must have some grounds
upon which to apply the law.
A bad man or woman must be
identified; must be complained of.
If there be no complaint fled the
Mayor can not legally act.
Who has fled complaints?
No one.
The press can call attention to a
situation of affairs apparent to

possibly arouse public feeling, but
to cleanse this town of its conspicu-
gus immortality, we must proceed
as we do when We compel the clean

some dozen or fifty of our citizens
present complaint to our Mayor.
Then if he and his police don't car

we all can have reason to blame
him.
As 1t is, the fault of the condition
of our town Is largely the fault of
its citizens. The municipal author

1t is the duty of our police to
know the criminal class. They have
the authority by virtue of their Of
fee to arrest all or any whom they
know to be vioIaters of the law. 1t
is possible. it is TO be presumed they
don't know any violaters of the law.
If they do, they should arrest. Not
