OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES r.

The Southern Democratic press is begin
ming to take alarm lest the spread of prohi-
bftion at the South and the organization of a
Prohibition party may break the solid
ranks of the Democracy The Democra-
cy have contemplated with lively sat
isfaction the inroads made by the Prohi-
bitionists of the North into the Republican
ranks. They have watched the progress of
the prohibition sentiment with great inter
est, not because they believed in it, but be-
cause they saw in it potent weapon for
disrupting the Republicans. South of Ma
son and Dixon's line their OK is now being
gored, and their past happiness is beginning
to take on hue of melancholy. Frantic ap-
peals are being made by the Georgia Demo-
cratic press MOTTO mix purely reformatory
movement with politics. Prohibition is well
enough to talk about in off years, they say,
but it must not be urged near election time
lest it may make inroads upon the Demo-
cratic vote. Senator Coke is alarmed lest
the anti-whiskey agitation in Texas may en-
danger Democratic supremacy even in that
Bourbon State. And the Augusta Chronicle
implores the Prohibitionists to keep out of pol
itics. There is a good deal of truth in the argu-
ment OF the Southern papers that prohibition
willlose much ofitS popularity at the South,
when itcomes to be mixed up with politics as
It has done at the North, and that it will be
easier to discredit its advocates and impugn
their motives, just as has been the case at
the North The advice of the Southern press
is good, but the motive underlying it is, we
fear, not to help prohibition, but to keep
prohibition from hurting the Democratic
party.

whether the Rev. Mr. Downs, pastor of
the Bowdoin Square church of Boston, is gull
ty OF the criminal charge made against him
or not is the province of the Massachusetts
courts to decide. The admissions however.
made by him in a.public statement were such
as could not fail to place him under grave
suspicion in the public mind Under the
circumstances there was but one proper
course for him to pursue He should have
Withdrawn from the ministry pending iu-
dicial investigation. Instead of doing that
however, he has thrust himself into the face
OF the public assiduously and in most Of
fensive manner. Almost nightly since the
scandal became public he has conducted
prayer meetings in his church, abiding to
the scandal in his prayers and remarks and
cracking jokes upon it. On Sunday his fore
noon sermon was entirely devoted to it and
the promiscuous crowd in attendance were
highly entertained by his witty illusions.
We doubt if ever before sermon quite So
disgusting to decent people has come
forth from pulpit in New England city.
1t is gratifying to know that the best part of
his church and congregation has deserted
him. The rest of it, if it has any self respect.
after that sermon, will make haste to follow
suit 1t makes very little difference whether
he is guilty or innocent of the criminal aeon
sation as far as his usefulness in the ministry
is concerned. That ceased the moment he
betrayed his lack of common sense by keep
ing himself in the public view

Hodgdon, the Bath man who murdered his
mother, has been sent to the insane asylum
for inspection by experts 1t will be remem-
bered that Hodgdon deliberately shot his
mother without any provocation whatever
He had been drinking at the time, and there
were indications that he had reached the
state known as mania potu, which we be-
lieye is recognized by the law as form of
insanity and when proved is considered a
good defense. DeIirium tremens is generally
temporary in its character, and it is most
likely that the insanity experts will find Hodg-
don perfectly sane now. The case will then
come back for trial, and the question of his
mental condition at the time of the act will be
raised.

Ii the report that Russia has surrendered
all claim to the Zulfikarnpass prove true, then
the difficulty between Russia and England is
settled for the present The credit of the
pacific issue belongs to Mr.. Gladstone, who
spite of the violent protests of the Conserya-
tives that he was humiliating his country in
not rushing into war, refused to break off
diplomatic negotiations. Lord Salisbury,
however, is in position to claim it, mas
much as the consummation has been reached
with him in Office and it would not be sur
prisiDg if on the stump this fall he should be
found pluming himself on the success of
policy which in its inception he violently OPP

LITERARY CRITICS IN THE WILD WEST.
Chicago News.
1t is said Walt Whitman never used a
rhyming dictionary. Certainly not A man
who can sit down all alone in broad daylight
and make ''milkwagon" rhyme with Hub
bard squash doesn't have to use rhyming
dictionary. The one great fault with John
Boyle O'Reilly's new poem, "A Savage" is
that it does not make it perfectly clear
whether the title refers to the Choctaw In
dian, to Mr. O'Reilly, or to the person who
reads the poem. Pools would probably sell
about even with any of these choices against
the field.

Timothy F. Brown of Bristol has been
granted pension of eight dollars month
with arrears amounting to $1,000. He was a
soldier Of the Twentieth Maine Regiment
from which he was transferred to the navy
While in the service he contracted an injury
to his eyes for which he receives the pension.
Gen. Horace Porter, in his "reminiscences
OF Grant in Harper's Magazine, tells how a
Maine woman once saluted the general
I've come down here" said she, ''a-runin

Lieut. Mullen, pardoned by the President.
was conspicuous figure in the Ohio Demo-
cratic convention, and the knowledge that he
was out of jail and likely to be in position
to afford the Democracy his powerful aid in
October, doubtless greatly exhilarated the
spirits of the delegates. Perhaps the turn
ing out of Mullen was one of the reforms
the convention had in mind when it endorsed
the reforms of the administration.
The Portland daily press., 1885-08-25

The legislature which the Ohio Democratic
convention so heartily endorsed was the
same legislature that defeated George H.
Pendleton for the United States Senate be-
cause he advocated the Civil Service law. It
was the legislature also that increased the
local Indebtedness of the State by $4,000, 600.
Yet in the same breath that it endorsed
this legislature it endorsed the reforms of
Cleveland's administration. Are we to I'M
derstand that the Ohio Democracy considers
the reforms of Cleveland's administration on
par with the reforms of the last legsla-
ture or was the endorsement of the ad-
