An Interesting Campaign.

The political campaign in the neigh
boring state of Wisconsin has been
opened by the Republicans in credit
able manner. On Saturday the chair
man of the Republican state committee
issued an address outlining the methods
by which the campaign was TIC be con-
Quoted. This is one of the most re-
markable papers ever sent forth by a
political association. 1t meets the
questions most prominent in the state
fairly and manfully, and declares that
the Republicans propose to conduct the
entire canvass on that plane.
One of the principal points is that
which treats of the attitude of the Re-
publican party toward the labor inter
eStS of the country. This question is
discussed and viii form principal fea-
ture of the campaign because of the
Democratic attempt to make capital
out of the action of Gov. Rusk in the
riots in Milwaukee in May last. The
Democratic press all over the state in
simulated that the party dared not in
dorse that action. The Republican
convention met this insinuation by
promptly renominating Gov Rusk, and
have accepted the gage of battle thrown
down.
The address of Chairman TAYLOR sets
forth in lucid terms the reason why in
this canvass Gov. Rusk represents, as
no other man can. the side of law and
order as opposed to violence and dis
order. 1t is not denied that another
man might have performed his duties
just as creditably rs Gov. Rusk But
the fact remains that GOV. Rusk was
the man who promptly suppressed the
riots, thereby calling down upon HIM
self the active hostility of all who
sympathized with the mob, and that his
defeat by any other candidate viii be
hailed with qualification by the law
breakers as in some sort a triumph for
them.
The Republican party is in the high
est, largest, and truest sense the friend
promoter, and defender of labor against
the grasping oppression of capital on
the one hand, and on the other the far
greater danger of the insidious poison
ingS of anarchy. The committee pro-
poses to 20 on the stump and discuss
this question fairly and fully. Chicago

Up to the present time twenty-five of
the fifty-seven chairmanships Of House
committees have undergone defeat and
been relegated 10 the rear by their con-
stituency. These Democratic members
recognized leaders-have either suf-
fered outright defeat for denomination
to Congress, or declined to enter the
contest. The reasons given for setting
these members aside are none other
than the policy of the administration
and its political complications and in
sincerity with its own party. \ re-
markable fact ia this connection is that
the defeated candidates were warm
supporters of the President and sup
porters of his policy. many Of them to
an unnecessary extent. Here is another
manifest evidence that the Democratic
party IS inherently unqualified to have
control OF government like our own.
rs well as assurance that that control IS
of few days duration.

In one part of his speech Mr. DIN
said that prohibition in Maine is so sue
oessful that to get drink one has to 90
down stairs and through dark passages
into obscure cellars, where liquor is
drawn from pipe leading to a vessel
away off under manure pile. In an
other part he said there are 81 Republican
saloon-keepers in Portland and thirty of
the same in Augusta, and that they are
Republicans because they know the Re
publican party could wipe out the sa-
looms il it wanted to. That is a mistake
No party whatever can wipe out saloons
or suppress the sale of liquor while large
part Of the community believe that a
little liquor, used in moderation, is
not AVERY bad thing, but rather a good
thing, and being good thing to be used,
it is a good thing to be sold; so they will

In his speech in this city Tuesday
evening Mr.. Olin said, referring to the
amount of revenue received by the city
of Lancaster from the license tax on
saloons, that the citizens would better
have law which brought from the sa-
looms nothing but the misery they cause,
than one which brought from those
places a revenue of several hundred
dollars, for in the former case they
would wipe out the saloons" Expert
ence contradiets this statement, par
ticularly as to this city and generally as
to every place. In 1874 no licenses
were granted in this city and it had
practical prohibition. But every sa-
loon in the place sold liquor rs usual,
in violation of the law. The city cot
not dollar revenue from them, got
nothing but the misery they cause"
but the citizens didn't wipe out the
saloons. The next year they voted to
grant the saloons license provided the
license tax was paid. So it goes gener-
ally prohibition does prohibit, of
course, for prohibit means only to for
bid; but prohibition does not prereat
the sale of liquor in any place where
any important number of the people
want to buy liquor. The only effectu-
Al way to prevent the sale of liquor
is to prevent people IRON wanting to
buy it. The evils resulting from the
use Of liquor as a beverage are indeed
numerous and terrible, but experience
has not shown nor reason does not de-
monstrate that prohibition is sure and
effective remedy for these eylls-nor,
indeed, any remedy at all

The color-line was the first thing to
present itself to the Knights Of Labor
assembling in national convention at
Richmond, Va. One of the delegates
from District Assembly No. 10, which
is located in New York city, is a colored
man, and hence was refused aecommo-
dations at the hotel where the other
delegates had arranged TO stop. When
this Slight was brought to their notice,
the whole delegation, so in number,
agreed that they would obtain boarding
places in colored families in Richmond
and thus give a practical demonstration
Of the feeling of brotherhood which
they profess. The example will have a
good effect, and the delegates deserve
the warmest commentator for this de-
cided action.
