AYTEsALooN REPUBLICANS.

The national convention OF anti-sa-
loon republicans, at Chicago, last week,
was attended by 200 delegates. 1t
appears that Father Baker, OF the To
peka Commonwealth, was one of the
number, for he devoted more than
column Of his paper of Tuesday to a
review of the work accomplished and
yet to be attended to. lie says of the
intentions Of the anti-saloOn republic
cans:
Money enough was pledged at the
convention to organize every voting
precinct IN the United States. There
will be no primaries of the republican
party held, for the selection of dele
gates To national, state or county con-
VentiOnS during the ensuing two years
but what an effort Will be made to Sc
cure delegates opposed to the saloon in
terest. Documents bearing on the sub
jet will be printed by the million and
sent out to every voting precinct. Mr..
Griffin will be in the field from this
time until the national republican con-
ventiOn meets, organizing auxiliary So
cieties, appointing agents and working
generally for the cause. The intention
Is, IL possible, To get the national con-
yentiOu 10 place the party squarely on
a platform opposed to saloons. That
they will succeed, we have but little
doubt, but If they do not there will be
no boiling, but fight in the party will
be kept up till the object is accom-
plished. 1t is a mOvemement which
will bring all honest, clear-headed.
third party men back TO the republican
party, where they rightfully belong. 1t
will also bring to the republican party
thousands of democrats and sO-called
liberal republicans. All talk about
"sumptuary legislation" will fall fiat.
for none is proposed. 1t will, of course.
drive from the party the great bulk of
saloon keepers; but the party IS better
OFF without than with them.

And while we are joying in the bright
outcome from a severe winter, the news
of Friday morning brought to Our homes
the sad account Of lone more untortu-
nate. A man weary Of life, with nothing
to look forward to and nothing to live
for--alas the morbid mind--littS his
hand in wiltull self-murder. Launching a
soul into the presence Of the Majesty on
high a soul ungrateful tor the pleasant
air. the sunshine ungratetul for the lie,
God-given, that every man can make
something OF in better way It's a
frequent story, and yet It is a story OF
cowardlce. Ca:not a man be brave
enough to live live for noble hereat-
ter, even if suffering does come to HIM
here on this earth. So as we are told OF
the death Of this unknown man. We
cannot but think how out Of keeping
with hope, life and the pleasant airs
from Heaven such sudden taking of
must be.
