THE ISSUES OF THE FUTURE.

That the Prohibition Temperance
Party is a live organization is shown
by the fact tnat it is reaching out to
other issues besides the vital one,
which has called it into existance.
In several important conventions a
demand has been made for an amend.
ment to the constitution of the Uni
ted States giving Congress the pow
er to pass a national law regulating
marriage and divorce. 1t has long
been felt that our conflicting State
laws are source of decentralization
and lead to endless confusion in the
relation of the sexes. Women are
wives in one State, and only mis-
tresses in another. Children are le-
gitimate in one part Of the Union,
and outside the pale of the family in
adjoining localities. Then property
complications result that are griev-
Gus loss to all interested except the
lawyers These temperance conven-
tions also lean toward a recognition
of women as voters. Should the gen.
tie sex get the ballot, The selling Of
liquor would soon BECOME outlawed,
polygamy could not be practiced In
the United States, while our loose
laws on marriage would give place
to wise general enactments that
would raise the tone of sexual NOR
ality, and add to the peace and hap
piness Of the family relation.-Dem-
orest's Monthly for October.

The Globe. Democrat of the 9th
says: Owing to the high and danger
Gus caving banks at points below
Vicksburg, boats are afraid to touch
at certain landings, and they have
to be moved from one point to an
other. Each of the Vicksburg boats
tow two barges, and generally take
a cargo amounting to between 45O
aud $50 tons. All the heavier boats,
principally of the Anchor Line fleet,
have to go to the bank during the
night between here and Grand Tow
er. The time of the round trips be-
tween here and Vicksburg, which
has all along been twelve days, has
been increased TO fourteen, yet some
of the best commanders of boats say
that it is simply an impossibility to
make the trips in the time mention
ed and tow one and two barges, as
is now at the low stage of water ne
cessary. The water at Cairo is on.
ly about six feet, hence large barges
have to be towed by the boats as
far down as New Madrid and Helena.

PERSONALLY Tools.

An experienced foreman, who has
an eye for philosophy, says that tools
apparently partake of the temper of
those who use them. A short grained
man generally has nicked bits; the
impetuous man broken ones; the lazy
man dull ones; the careless man bad
ly dressed ones; the man of one idea
one kind of dress for all kinds of
work; the soft man can rarely keep
the edge of his tools from turning,
while the good natured and even
tempered man always has the best
tools in the shcp and is pesteI ed con-
tinually by ill-tempered workmen,
who come to borrow from him when
ever they have a particular piece Of
work to do. 1t is quite interesting to
note the similarity in the temper ol
the workmen ana their tools.-Jour,
nal of Mechanics.

SOME HORSE TALK.
A Stable Out of Luok-BaIdwin and His
Horses.


New YORK, July 19th.-The Tribune says
of racing matters The Fairfax stable
started out this spring with flying colors.
1t was a new racing confederacy, and from
the liberal, not to say eXtrayagaut way in
which it spent money for good horses,
great things were expected of it. Horses
were not only purchased here in the East
but also in Kentucky and California.
Much of the help about the stables was
imported from England. Money was
lavished on everything Walcott not only
paid considerable personal supervision to
its management, but also has managers
and trainers. A Somewhat ancient proverb
OF spoiled ro,h is recalled when one con-
siders that the stable has only scored one
victory so far. Walcott was almost dis
couraged and decided upon a change and
transferred his horses, or those rather that
were fit to train, to the charge of that ex-
cellent young trainer James Rowe, whose
ability TO put horses in condition TO race is
well known. His success with Dwyer
Bros horses is still fresh in the minds of
all horse-men. Rowe gave up Johnsonis
horses when he took charge of the Fairfax
stable. 1t is 10 be hoped that the change
will work TO the benefit of the Lew con-
federacy.
voLANTE AGAINST THE WORLD.
OMAH3l, July 19th.-E. J. Baldwin, who
passed through Saturday on his way home
to San Francisco, said his horses would be
shipped from Chicago to Saratoga, where
some of them are entered for the races.
What do | consider the coming colts ?''
repeated Mr.. Baldwin to the correspond
ent's question. 1T is early to tell. Two
or three good horses have come out this
year; four or five three-year- have
Il oil -,
Using are Ben Ali, Ban Fox. Blue Wing,
Silver Tail and Silver Cloud. Ben Ali who
won the Louisville Derby, and Silver Cloud,
who won the Chicago Derby, ! consider the
most promising"
How about Volante?n
- / will match Volante against any horse
in the world for $4,000. Volante will run
against the Woodford horse at Saratoga
Are you intending to miss that race? ?n
''0h, no. I'm only going to San Fran
cisco for four or five days ON a little busi-
ness. and then coming back"
" lou have brought horses overland sew
eral seasons for racing. How do you think
they stand it?"
"Why, it handicaps them at first. The
Eastern horses can go much better when
they live East all the year round, and do
not have the disadvantage of travelling but
after our orses get over the travelling they
can beat the Eastern horses. We keep our
horses in California every winter and that
gives them an advantage over the Eastern
horses.
" You claim that California is the great
climate for raising fast horses ,"
"Yes. We can raise horses with bigger
lungs and that can stand more than those
raised in the bluegrass region or anywhere
East. They will learn it, too, when we
tha,,,
we sell our horses, and they are forced to
come 10 us to buy. No, we haven't offered
to sell yet, but | shall begin in about two
years. In ten years California will be rec
ognized as the country for fast-horse breed
ing"

signed Virginia." with the anonymous
letters warning Crawford against the
member for Chelsea and which evil
dently stirred Crawford up to the discovery
of his wife's alleged relations with Sir
Charles Dixie. The expert said the SINH
larity between the writing in the anony-
nous note and in the signed letters was so
great that he believed the same person had
written all the letters lie examined. This
testimony produced a sensation in Court.
