Temperance Work.

The non-partisan w. c. 7. U. has discov-
cred, or rather is following, for it is no new
discovery, the only effective plan of tenn
perance work. In circular recently sent
out from Cleveland it states that more than
fifty towns in OhiD have closed their saloons
under provision of the Dow law, and adds:
"In every town where prohibitory ordi-
nance has been passed, it is the result of
bipartisan movement of the people. Pro-
hibition, under the local option law, in
Georgia and other southern states, has been
gained by non-partisan effort The lines
that divided the people into the wet and the
dry were not coincident with the lines that
divided the two great parties, and there was
no third party. The more than 323, 900 votes
cast for the second amendment in 1883, repre-
sented men in all parties Only by a non
partisan effort can municipal prohibition be
gained in any town in this state"
Mr.. O. d. Cotton, secretary Of the Non
Partisan Temperance union. is emphatic in
his declaration that only by the united action
of temperance people in all parties on a nom
partisan basis can the temperance cause be
advanced He closes an appeal to temper
ance workers in the following language:
Let those who are partisans or nothing
shout praises or denunciations according to
party interests, but let those of Us whose citi-
zenship and temperance principles are above
mere partisan advantage lay hold of and use
to the utmost any and all law that can b,
used to either restrain, suppress or prohibit,
the saloon traffic and at the same time let US
seek to arouse and develop temperance ssnti-
ment Thus shall we the most surely and
the most speedily suppress the saloon and Sc
cure prohibition. Let US, whether Democrats
or Republicans, cease trying to reform the
people by first reforming parties and turn
our attention and energy TO reforming the
people of which the parties are composed"

THE BUCKEYE PANORAMA BUSINESS.
A Place Where Big Paintings are Manu-
factured for Exhibition-Big scheme.

A Place Where Big Paintings are Manu-
factured for Exhibition-Big scheme.
Chicago is the center of the panorama
business in America And the panorama
business Is more extensive one than most
people imagine it to be There are several
panorama factories in town, or near by.
One Of these stands near the Rock Island rail
way tracks in Englewood-a monster turret
of wood. whose doors are closed to all visitors
except those accompanied by the proprietor,
DIR. Pierpont. In this turret-like house
painters are always at work upon panoramas
not creations, but copies of works already
known to fame. Gettysburg is the favorite,
and it is estimated that there are now in ex-
istcnce something like two dozen copies Of
this famous panorama. The copies are
known to the trade as buckeyes" though
the origin of the term in this application is as
vet mystery. These buckeyes cost al the
way from 5000 to $4,000 apiece, and some
of them are fine copies of the original. They
are sold to enterprising chaps in large cities
throughout the country, and exhibited usu-
ally in cheap wooden buildings. Some Of
them have made fortunes for their owners in
a few years
The cheaper paintings are carried about the
country DN railway tdlS- btlhk N'uilh Ii'i
shipment on a big spool. and exhibited in
tents. Some of the first buckeyes" manu-
factured were turned out by house and sign
painters, and sorry jobs they made of them,
too In addition to their ignorance of per
spective and coloring they only knew how TO
mix paints for wood surfaces, and some Of
the canvaseS which their clumsy brushes
,lauhed, and which have been carried around
the country until they are weary, cracked
and weather worn, do not much resemble the
original Gettysburg.
A queer feature of the business is that the
painters Of these buckeyes" pay the proprie-
tors of the originals nothing for the privilege
of copying Photographs are on sale of all
sections save one of the Gettysburg panorama,
the exception being the view of the wheat
field The copyers buy these photographs,
slyly take notes as to the coloring while pre-
tending to look at the canvas, and in the same
manner make hasty and crude sketches of the
wheat field.
Ii is said that there is scheme on foot to
procure Sl0oOO copies of Gettysburg, Shiloh,
