THE DIFFERENCE.
Man GOSSIP vs.. Woman Gossip.

"What things women arel" ex-
claimed Brown. my wife and an
other woman sat a whole half-hour
talking about how to narrow off a
stocking, and from the interest
they took in the discussion, one
would think that the salvation of
the human race depended on it,"
81 know it," replied White, 1--WE
heard couple of women discuss
for half a day over the best way
to pin a tidy over chair back"
Then Brown and White spent the
remainder of the evening in very
intellectual conversation over the
respective merits of curve and
straight pitching as applied to the
national game. Each eventually
got as mad as a March hare, and
have not spoken to each other since.
There can be no doubt that women
as conversationalists are far behind
men in choice of subjects.--BIade,
We submit that, in the above
the women had greatly the adj
vantage. There is some good in
getting the right turn in the heel,
and the right narrowing off" to
the toe, of a stocking, while there

SENATOR COLQUl1T SPEAKS,
The Decision Inevitable and Irreuer
s5bLe.

Speaking of the reports sent out
that the Prohibition victory had
killed the business boom in Allan
ia, caused a dozen family quarrels,
and broken a score of marriage en-
gagements, and all that, Senator
Colquitt, says: "The absence of Bit
terness and violence before the cleo
ton, and notably on the day Of the
election, was a happy surprise to
all. Never before, we may safely
say, was an important election con-
Quoted 50 peaceably-certainly new
er before with US.
There is no fall in real estate
prices, nor activity in that market,
which did not exist before the ell
ection. Our people were never
more harmonious, and there is no
such lamentable condition in love
affairs and in the matrimonial mar
ket as is described.
All this stuff is the expiring eff
fort to stem an overwhe lining
torrent which public opinion has
been gathering for these forty
years. The friends of virtue and
good order are calmly rejoicing
over the victory of temperance,
and those who trade in the calami-
ties of intemperance are the only
ones made unhappy by the Atlanta
election. Let the world know that
the decision is inevitable and ir-
reversible.
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1885-12-30
A BarbarOus Argument.

Chicago saloon keepers claim
that closing their saloons on Sun
day would work an injustice to the
general population, and that 174,-
600 people in Chicago have Eng
lish and American characteristics
and are presumably in favor of Sun
day observance. On the other hand
there were 114,000 Irish, 10000
Germans, $4,000 Scandinavians,
$4,000 Bohemians, $4,000 Poles,
5000 French 1000 Italians, 5000
Africans, $4,000 Swedes, $4,000
Norwegians and 5000 Danes, and
other minor nationalities making
total of nearly 100000 foreigners.
The dealers claim that large ma
jority Of these foreigners, are in fav-
or of open saloons and amusements
on the Sabbath, and will take steps
to secure modification of the laws
now existing against freedom on
the Sabbath Exchange.
The above is going the rounds of
the great papers Of the country
without a word of condemnation.
A more heathenish and barbarous
argument for defying the laws of
God and man was never put forth.
By the same reasoning, if in any
Western town the blood thirsty
savages should be found in the
majority, the women and children
should be put to the tomahawk and
scalping knife, because torsooth
the savage majority were in favor
OF family butcheries, scslping, war
dances and "amusements" of that
sort.
Such cold, blooded statistics and
arguments are fit only for schools
where cannibals are the scholars
and devils are teachers.

ALONG THE PROHIBITION
LINES.

Twent-one counties in Missouri
have banished soloons.
Georgia only lacks IA out of her
loI counties of all being under
local option.
Neither of the great political
parties dares offend the whisky
vote or can be depended upon to
outlaw the liquor traffic. "-Rev.
Joseph Cook.
The temperance wave has reach
ed Russia, and 10000 vodka"
shops are to be closed, Jan. LIST,
after which time liquor can be sold
only in hotels and eating houses.
Total abstinence we seek through
voluntary action for the promo
zion of individual virtue and of the
general good. Legal prohibition
we seek for as means of guarding
our rights. Let the law cease to
appeal to US by taxing US for the
support OF pauperism and crime
caused by the selling of intoxicat-
ing drinks and we will cease to ap-
peal to the law.-Dr. Mark Hop
k6ns.
Congress will be called upon to
deal with the liquor question this
winter. There are over 1900
places in W ashington where liquor
is sold, and the revenue commission
ers of the district call upon the law
makers to reduce the mum Der and
put up the tax.
The Champion, the LiquorOrgan,
speaks truly when it says that in
less than two years Kentucky and
Tennessee will be carried for pro-
hibition. Considering the source,
this is encouraging for Prohibition
ists.-E1.
AT THE CAPIToL.-Senator Col
quit, of Georgia, declares that he
will introduce a bill into the SEN
dIS, anu pIOoS ~ w d fOtC, w give
the people of the District OF Col
umbia a chance to vote upon the
prohibition question. There are ], )
300 saloons in Washington, and it
is time the government was TAX
ing some measures towards prohib-
ting the sale of liquor at the CAPT
tai.
SUsTAINED.-A Saloon keeper of
jacksonville, O., was convicted for
selling. He appealed, and
the Superior Court has just affirm
ed the court below, holding the
ordinance valid,
HIGH LIcENsE.-The retail LID
lor license in Fulton county, Ga,
excepting Atlanta, has been in
creased to twenty-five hundred dol

A man that brings rattlesnake
into his home and gets mad be-
cause it bites one of his children,
