1t will be seen that, strictly following
the States rights doctrine, Justice Lamar
and the majority of the court with him
decide in this and in the Mugler case a
State can suppress the manufacture and
sale of liquor within its borders without
violating the Federal Constitution.

For the benefit of at least one man in
Bennington the whole number of Harri-
son electoral votes (239) are peculiarly
gratifying, because it shows that, al
though we lost Connecticut and New
Jersey through the efforts of the Prohi-
bitionists, we still had enough to elect a
Republican President without New

who have hoped great things from that
party how much longer they will en-
courage the division. Like mugwumI-
cry, it may have been corrective; it
may have served the purpose of sharply
calling the attention of Republicans to
the necessity of their going forward
from one reform to another; but as a
party Of popular interest, confidence or
hope,it is, like the mugwump movement,
a dead failure.
Therefore, as we have said many
times before, the true place for all friends
of temperance reform, election reform,
tariff reform, civil service reform, or any
other reform,is in the Republican party,
which is the great aggregation OF the
enlightenment, morality, civilization and
Americanism Of this country, ana which

THE PRoHIRIrIoNIsrs.

The Third Party men have failed ut
terly to smash the Republican party"
But they have succeeded is disgracing
New York and Connecticut by placing
them in anomalous positions-New
York, where she can do nothing for any
kind of reform by means Of the State
Government and Connecticut where she
stands alone in bad eminence among the
New England States as a supporter OF
Grover Cleveland
In New York their vote fell off. In
1SS6.it was $4,000. in 1887 it was. Al 800
and this year 1t was only about 1880.
This shows that the "rising tide" is not
in their direction. AS the coming
party" they are not materializing.
In Connecticut their vote for st. John
in 1884 was 2494; for Governor, in 1886
it was 1887. This great increase en-
couraged them 10 double their efforts
this year and they expected vote OF at
least 1000, which they should have re-
ceived to keep up the promise Of their
growth. But they received only 4845,
gain Of only 1853. So, while the Demo
Gratis increased their vote 81 per cent,
and the Republicans theirs 30 per cent,
the Prohibitonists increased theirs per
cent.
This makes it obvious that the element
Of growth is not 10 them. But they are
potent for mischief. In Connecticut, as
in New York they had the power to give
the State 10 the real friends of temper
ance and good government, but they
preferred to wound those friends. The
wound is like Tybalt's

RAILROAD TALK 1t is reported
on good authority that notwithstand'
ing the SHOWS of winter are on the
ground in the northern portion of the
territory, several parties of civil en-
gineers have lately been dispatched
in that direction, to take advantage
of all the favorable weather to COM
plete their work. This looks as if
railroad construction would begin
very early in the spring, soon as the
snow melts most likely. The Chey-
enne & Northern and the Burlington
will occupy the field if the Union Pa
ci6c obtains its desired extension of
time in which to pay its debt to the
government from the fftieth con-
gress.
The Northwestern, encouraged by
the development of the country about
Douglass and Glenrock and the pre-
parations for developing the oil ba-
Sins beyond, will not lie idle at its
present terminus while its rivals are
cavorting around it on all sides, but
will make another bold dash toward
the western boundary line of Wyom-
ing. There will be such activity in
railroad building in Wyoming in 1888
as has never been dreamed of in the
west before Laramie Boomerang.

TRUE WORDS FROM A BRAVE
POLITICIAN.
A Republican Paper That isn't
Afraid.

The prohibition convention which met on
the I'd inst, was at once surprise and a sug-
gestion. In numbers it exceeded expecta-
lions, and 1t was an intimation that the
party in whose interest 1T met is destined to
live until prohibition is accomplished. If
substantial, resolute men wed themselves to
cause in Richie county, so will they
throughout the country.
The Speakers who announced that prohi-
bition is the great issue Of the day, were
right. tits question that will not down.
The solid, sober sentiment of the country
is against the liquor traffic, and If prohibit
ton is not adopted and made effectual by
the old parties, the new one Will grow, and
grow, and grow, until 1t will overrun the
land. Men may give way to prejudice for a
time and fret and fume, and do foolish
things because their favorite candidates are
not elected, but before many years the great
chord of public feeling will be struck right,
and then the body polite Will throb and
thrill so as to cause such a shaking among
the dry bones as has not been known since
1850, at any rate.
Prohibition will be an overshadowing
thing in a few years, just as the evils 1t seeks
to remedy is now an overshadowing one.
The only question Is, how shall it come?
