Republicans and Prohibition

A largely attended conference of anti
saloon republicans was held in Chicago
last week. The object seems to have
been to inaugurate movement to COM
nit the republican party to the support
of temperance ideas just far enough to
retain the prohibitionists. 1t is not like
ly they cen succeed. The prohibitionists
know just what they want and seem to
be very much IN earnest in demanding it..
No half way measures, such as high Ii
Ccnse, which is one of the panaceas pro
posed by the conference, will satisfy
them. On the other Fand, anything that
will satisfy the prohibitionists will alien
ate another and very large element of the
republican party. The bulk of the party
has no desire 10 prohibit the sale of lig
uOr. Ii the men who drink beer and
whisky when they happen to feel like il
were TO desert the party, what possible
chance would tue republicans have of re-
gaining control of the government
None at all. for many years to come, at
least, if ever. The republican party is
thus in very painful predicament. The
probimtionisis will be satisfied with moth
ing less than unconditional surrender
and they have more than once shown that
if they are unable to accomplish any
ching of themselves they have AT least the
power to defeat the republicans Ii

There are four candidates III the field, so

Piatt's friends claim great strength foI

are equal to the rest. They base theil
hopes upon securing the support of the

The great American hog is wHuIu@
away. Reports from nearly every part of
Winnebrgo county, says the Rockford
Register, give proof that the greatly dread
ed hog cholera or disease is making vast
inNioads into farmers pig pens. There
seems scarcely a neighborhood that is not
affected. Some farmers are absolutely
hogIcss, others have lost half of their
swine, and have little hope of saving any
others. The pork market must go up if
this continues, but soap ought to grow
much cheaper. James Atkinson was
bringing load of fine looking fat hogs
to the city few days ago when several
of the hcalthicst looking dropped dead
without even warning grunt. As a con
sequence he left the bulk of his load with
the soap men instead of the stock deal
ers. The disease seems to rage most vir-
uIently south of Rockford. Supervisor
Robert Simpson lost SO and more to fol
low W. L. Frishie lost 40 and shipped
all the well ones away. Messrs Williams
son, Moon, Smith, Fred Warner, of Ros
coe, and David Shean are among the
farmers who have lost heavily. James
Briden lost every rooter he had, 40 in all
The disease acts differently in different
instances. Sometimes the pigs look plump
and healthy and slick enough to eat with
out cooking or curing. and the little ones
even seem TO suggest the savory unc'
tiousness SO appetizingly described BY
