Bob Ingersoll on Prohibition.

Interview in Pittsburg Dispatch.
Have you any objection to giving your views
on Prohibtion2'
II am opposed to it Prohibition interferes
with the private rights of individuals. 1t breeds
spies and hypocrisy. 1t turns the home into the
saloon. 1t fills community with cant and pre-
tense, and makes every neighbor spy on the
other.
you can never make great people by keep
ing them away from temptation. We grow
strong by resisting temptation. AS people grow
civilized they grow temperate, and in order to
become civilized they must be free. Temper
ance goes hand in hand with liberty, because lib
erty Is the mother of obligation Of conscience"
hat do you think of the Murphy move
ment?"
Its principle is correct 1t is right to endeavor
to dssuade your neighbor from INDUCING in in
toxcants and becoming a drunkard. and moral
suasion is the method to be used. / believe in
temperance, total abstinence. Liquor is the
curse of this country. l have always been a
temperance man, and never drank drop of
whisky in my life"
What part do you think the Prohibition party
will play in politics."
THAT is hard to say. 1t may hold the balance
OF power, but hardly think SO. do not think
it is growing to any extent. and will not"

Says Tacoma exchange: woman suffrage
IS apt to bring about strange state of affairs
An illustration of this was afforded not long
since in convention i'll this county, where q
lady delegate in several instances voted in oppo-
stion TO her father, who was a delegate from the
same precinct But still more peculiar case
is that in Lincoln county. where Frank nj. Gray
editor of the Davenport Times, who was a NOM
Der. of the Territorial Republican convention, is
a Republican candidate for the Legislature
while Mrs. Gray, his wife and associate editor,
is candidate on the Democratic ticket for
school superintendent. This causes a contem-
po-ary to remark that it is safe to say that the
merits and dement's of the school superin tend
ent will not be very thoroughly cauvassed by the
Times man. Where there is so much enterprise
and talent in family, two editors and two ca
pable people, it is not necessary that any CRITICS.

fitted for the Office, for, if we understand it
Alright, she has often conducted the paper during
the senior editors absence and is, therefore, pos
sessed of abilities of no mean order. Here's sue

They stood at the front gate as the closing
scene of a long evenings engagement The con-
versation had dwindled to base hits, and his in
tellect had grown limp framing excuses for hang
ing on.
Charley" she began, rs she dropped Ian
guSdly over the gate, 'can you tell me who will
be GOVERNOR
''Why, certainly" he replied; Taylor will"
Then they laughed little ungrammatical rip
pie at Charley's break
But, Charley" she continued ''Tm serious.
Don't you think 'twould be too awfully bad for
them to have two brothers going around speak
ing against each other and saying all those hor-
rid thingsl"
Charley had not sifted the results of such an
evil. but replied: Eyes confess 'twould look a
little tough, bat then, you see, they wouldn't go
into personalities, but discuss the issues before
the people.n
What are the issues Charley?~
The line was too long, but with death rattle
in his throat, he stammered:
"Oh, you know, the Blair bill, suppose, and
oh-the tariff. and"
A great light kindled in her beautiful eyes,
and. leaning close over the gate, she whispered
in soft, balcony sigh:
Charley. won't you tell me all about the
TARIFF"
That swept his decks. His information wasn't
built that way.

The Mysteries of the Ocean.
Philadelphia Times.


Though there still deep mysteries about
the Gulf stream and ocean winds and storms a
great deal of light is being shed upon the subject
OF atmospheric and ocean currents 1t is known,
for instance, that there is constant current of
cold water setting from the poles of the earth to
the equator. and consequently counter current
or heated water from the equator to the poles.
The green shores of Ireland are on the same par
allel with the ice-bound coast of Labrador; Paris
is north of Quebec Liverpool is as far north as
the bleak countries where the Esquimeaux hunt
the seals in seas of ice. These differences of
climate, difference that gives to France and
Spain the vine and olive, are all the result of
that mystery of mystery the Gulf stream, which
is also supposed to be the influence that is max
ing In this country the seaboard within the
past year or two the winters warmer and the
summers cooler. Whatever the cause the hotel
men all along the coast are amazed at the cool
weather of the summer just closing and begin
to express the opinion that changes are taking
place in the climate of the country that must ut
terly change all the habits of summer pleasure
taking that have been in vogue.

long while ago a Moorish vessel was wrecked
on that coast, and its survivors remained

rest of the human family, with whom they have
scarcely any intercourse. They are swarthy of
complexion, tall. erect, sinewy, and, on the
whole, quite comely Several years ago the
Delaware legislature in compliance with
their petition, granted them a special school
fund. They have their teacher and
preacher, their own school house and church.
They have head or chief, who is counselor
