TheThil"d Party.

!. There is no paper more earnestly in
favor of pro hibition than the New York
Independent, and that paper plainly sets
forth its opposttiod to the third party
movement. 1t says:
The election in Maine settles the future
of the third party. 1t is not to be a
serious factor in American rel,tics 1t
has no future before it. Prohibition has
great future, thank God! but not the
Prohibition party.
If we may then say that the Frohibi-
tion party is substantial failure, the
question must next be answered: Why
is this so? Will not the people respond
to an appeal for prohibition Certainly
they will, and it is chiefly because they
wish to fight the saloon by prohibition
and in every other way that they refuse
to accept the Prohibition party. They
have common sense, and they see that
prohibition has hitherto gained glorious
victories by moral agitation and that the
political methods of the third party
actually endanger prohibition, Besides,
we can not co mccall it from ourselves that
the third party Prohibitionists are
showing themselves much more anxious
TO make much of their party than to
promote temperance. There is growing
and just suspicion that political ambition
has more to do with their methods than
a love of Temperance. This is seen in
the fact that their declared policy is "No
Compromise" which has the remarkable
meaning Of no voting for prohibitionist
unless he flies cur political flag, So they
will set up candidate OF their own
against an active and pronounced
prohibilionist Of the old parties, when
they know perfectly we'll that TO do SO
is likely to elect SALOON man. They
prefer saloon man to Republican or
Democrat pronibitoust- Now, the
COMMON sense of the people will see
| through that nonsense. Their utter
I
impracticaoility is seen in tneir method
of fighting the saloon. The common
sense principle of fighting the saloon is
to take ever inch you can get and retreat
never The political Prohibitionsts
have only one policy, and that is state
prohibition or nothing. Common sense
people regard free trade in rum as tht
lowest stage, and total prohibition as th.
upper stage, and they move forward jus
as fast as they can. The political Prohl
bitionist, If we can judge from hi
constnt policy, actually prefers the opel
hell Of the unrestricted saloon t
everything else except absolute prohibi
ton. He will not shut up one unless h'
can suut up all. If he cannot make i
impossible to open 4 saloon, he will no
tgive any help TO make: it hard o
