The democratic platform declared for
filling the Territorial offices from resi-
dents. President Cleveland has appoint
ed to twelve such offices. all but two of
which were from outside the Territory
where the appointment was made. Pres
ident Cleveland appears to be law unto
himself about making appointments. The
democratic prophets are terribly confoun-
ded bv the manner in which he overthrows
their predictions and tramples upon the
work of their local leaders.

A gentleman who lives in Minneapolis
says that the most effective temperance
work in that city and st. Paul is done by
Irish Catholics. who form large MAORI
ty of all the organized temperance bodies.
This is largely due to the earnest labor of
Bishop Ireland of St. Paul. in which he is
warmly seconded by FIR. McGolrick of
Minneapolis. As natural result. the
new generation of Irish Catholics growing
up in both cities are temperate, provident
and progressive, and among the best of
citizens.

Prohibition Forever.
BY H4RRY JAY.

The son of a moderate drinker turns
out to be soT !
See him as he staggers home, where
his wife and seven children await his
coming with fear.
The wife-the drunkard' S wife-study
her face and from it read her story
she can never blot out the darkened
past, or brighten the clouded future
she is drunkard's wife; the mother of
drunkard's children, and as such she
must spend her life.
The children in following their father
will only sink deeper into degradation.
The drunkard's uneducated children
who, meeting them in foreign land
would be proud to recognize them as
countrymen?
We are proud of our land; proud we
are free people; but OH we are not
all free-there are more than ten slaves
to every free man in the United States
to-day.
Slaves to the most cruel master that
ever laid men in dishonored graves, or
hurried souls deep in perdition. Slaves
to an appetite for intoxicating liquor.
The matter stands thus: Unless we
prohibit the sale of alcoholic drinks,
ours will be "a land of bastard souls
and nursery of crimeg'
Every man who truly loves the well
fare of his country will cry-"Prohi-
bition Foreverp
For prohibition kills the degrading
influence now thrown around us; it
blots out the horrible curse forever and
leaves US free men in free home.
Who is it will not cry-"Prohibition
forever?

An Old Masonic Document.

George T. Ingam, Esq, a member of
the New Jersey bar, has in his posses
sion at Atlantic City the oldest original
Masonic Lodge report in America,
bearing date June 5, 1872. Mr. Ingam,
inherited it from David Hall, for many
years partner of Benjamin Franklin
in the printing business. 1t is report
of a committee of st. Johns Lodge,
Philadelphia, upon the estate of the
Lodge" and unanimously recommend
ing the adoption of certain resolutions
for the government Of the lodge. The
report is signed by eleven members,
among whom is Benjamin Franklin, in
whose handwriting, says the Philadel-
pnia Record, the report apparently is.
The report says that ssinasmuch as the
excellent science of Geometry and
Architecture is so much recommended
in our ancient Constitution, total
ignorance of this art is very unbecoming
a Man who bears the worthy Name and
Character of a Mason" and "is is the
Duty of every Member to make himself,
in some Measure, acquainted Herewith,
as he would honor the Society he belongs
to, and conform to the Constitutions"
And in order "that every Member may
have an Opportunity of SO doing, the
present Cash be laid out in the best of
Books of Architecture, suitable Mathe-
matical instruments, &C." To raise the
necessary funds it is urged that every
member pay his dues, and that every
one not paying on a night named "be
suspended until he do pay. For without
Care be taken that Rules are punctually
ohsarvad no Soeietv can he long rpheld
in good Order and Regularity" This doc
ument antedates more than one year the
petition of eighteen brethren-July
80, 1733-to Henry Price asking for
the constitution of Lodge at Boston.

The Hair of Ann Arbor Students.

The pompadour haircut worn by
Ann Arbor students is self explanatory,
and the only thing of its kind known
to fame. 1t is severely classical, Julius
Caesar having been taken down with it
the night he rolled up his trousers legs
and waded across the Hellespont. The
barber who performs the delicate oper-
alton was pulled green and ripened to
order. He has got the business down
fine and can talk his customers to death
in all the ancient and modern lam
guages. He always makes change in
English, however. The student POM
padour is low-necked and short-sleeved
on the sides, and is cut en- train over
the skylight of the intellect. This
builds the head up in the swamp lands
which nature often gives over to hard
ness of heart and imparts collegiate
turn of mind to the architectural plan
of the whole stage business. A young
man often enters the university with a
head constructed on the cottage plan,
with all the bedrooms downstairs, and
leaves it, after few years of intimacy
with the pompadour barber, to all ap-
pearances thoroughly reformed man.
Nature has a way of getting tired
sometimes, and lying down beside her
work and going to sleep before the
supper bell rings. This gives the Ann
Arbor barber chance to demonstrate
wherein he knows more about his bus
mess than the original architect BY
pruning from the side of the head and
putting on q hip roof where nature had
let it go at composition, he generally
manages to impart an air of intellectu-
ality that is warranted to hatch chick
ems from door-knobs. If the patient
has been playing with the university
for several years, the intellect is allow
ed to project over the brow. to indicate
that seats inside are selling at a pre-
MUM. This is the only true reason
why Ann Arbor students are longer
headed than the rest of mankind De
