The Republicans in the State Assembly
of New York have made cheap bid for tenn
perance support by passing resolution pro-
viding for a prohibtory amendment to the
Constitution of that State. 1t has passed
the Senate, but it will be two years before it
can come up for final consideration. 1t re-
mains to be seen whether the Prohibilonis,s
will be brought back to the Republican fold
by this ruse or not. Their growing strength
in that State may incline them to maintain
their own organization, with the hope of alb
sorbing the entire Republican party-an ex-
pectation which is very well founded.
The beer brewers of New York are in
the midst of a struggle with their workmen.
On Monday about eighty brewcries shut
down, throwing out of employment 5000
men. The brewers declare they will employ
no men who recognize any bosses but their
employers. The workngmen say they will
boycott beer, and if they do, it will be the
beginning of ii big temperance movement
From 100000 to 100000 barrels of beer
are consumed in New York yearly.
The deadlock in the House ofReprcscn-
tativcs was broken, last week, by the action
of the Democratic caucus in determining to
postpone the consideration of the direct tax
bill. The Democrats sustained the action of the
caucus, and their course shows that the
Democratic party may be regarded as united
on.any line of policy agreed upon by the
majority in the Presidential campaign.
Ex-senator Roscoe Conkling died in
New York at $50 o'clock, Wednesday morn
ing. The tribute to his high personal char
acter and brilliant intellect has been univcr-
sal and sincere. His contempt for meanncss
in all its forms and his respect for truth and
right have always been conceded even by
those who differed with him in politics The
death of such n man can not but he loss to

Politics in Western Maryland.

Ex-Governor VIM. T. Hamilton thinks the
outlook for the election of Il Democratic con-
gresham from the sixth district is rs bright
now as it was in the beginning of the last
campaign. He will not, he says, be a candi-
date. Our Western Maryland Democratic
friends had better nominate Col. l.. Victor
BaughmNn again. The gallant fight he made
the last time would appear to entitle him 10
their support, if he will haycit. Gov Hamil-
ton also says the Democratic forces through.
out the State are in good form, aud there is
no reasonable doubt about the State giving
Cleveland rousing majority in tie next
presidential election. He recogn yes the
fact that the Republicans are making vigor
Gus efforts to improve their organization, and
they will doubtless make an active fight
Their actions will have hcalthful effect upon
the Democrats, and stimulate them TO better
and more effective work

The Republican League Clubs of Mary
land hell II meeting in Baltimore, last week,
and organized State League, preparatory
to the Presidential campaign of this year
The Republican party appears to have entire
ly ignored the declarations in its national
platform in favor of tariff revision and has
surrendered itself entirely to the manufactur-
ing interests of the country, in opposition to
any change in the tariff which will benefit the
mass of the people With the aid of the
money and influence of the wealthy monopo
lis Of the country they will be enabled to
make an aggressive campaign, and it is
therefore time that our Democratic friends
were bestirring themselves. We may not
have as easy a victory in Maryland, this year,
as we have had heretofore

A Lie Nailed,

Mr. EDIToR:-Mr. Marden, of the
"leader,' exhibits his capacity for false
hood again in the last issue Of that
sheet. When be denies that he told
me that he had promised his support to
Mr.. Benedict two months before the
nomination, he denies what he knows
to be the truth. Mr. Marden came to
me on the Tuesday or Wednesday fol-
lowing the nomination to have talk
with me about my candidacy. said
to Mr.. Marden that the delegates had
nominated me against my wishes. He
replied in these words: Harry (who is
Mr.. Nlarden's partner and | have been
talking the matter over for an hour,
and Harry says: We don't want to do
anything to hurt Herman, but l don't
know how to get out Of it, as we prom
ised our support to Mr.. Benedict two
months before the nomination. To
this time | had supposed Mr. Marden to
be running straight Democratic paper,
and the leading question now is "What
is it," Mr.. Marden called on me last
Saturday morning before his sheet was
printed and asked me where the Union
got the "material for the falsehood It
published last week" | told him it
was no falseho3d, but it was the truth,
and, as he denies it in his last issue, he
denies the truth and makes falsehood
out of it himself.
Yours very truly,
HERMAN L. MoLIToR.

The Echo was too Good.

Talking about echoes, Col. Ogeechee
claimed that he had one on his place, a
few miles from Savannah, which beat
anything he had ever heard or read
about; one, in fact, which would
clearly repeat whole sentences. The
party of gentlemen were interested
but incredulous, and arranged to ac-
company Colonel Ogeechee home the
next afternoon to test the wonderful
echo.
The Colonel found, on getting home,
that in the heat OF the discussion he
had claimed more than the facts justi-
fed. Determined not to be beaten lie
called his Irish laborer.
Pat" says he, ''some gentlemen
are coming home with me tomorrow
afternoon to hear the echo. Now,
want you to 60 across the river before
time for me to arrive, so you can an
swer back whatever we may call out u
"You name fur me 10 play ikker,
sorr?" asked Pat, grinning.
That's it, exactly" said the Colo.
mel. Now, do you thoroughly under
stand that you are to answer back
exactly what we sayP''
"Oh, yis, SORT; We can depind on me
entolrely."
Next afternoon the Colonel took his
friends TO the river bank, and all were
ready for the experiment.
Making a speaking trumpet Of his
hands, the Colonel roared:
Are you there?'
Back came the echo with startling
distinctness:
"Yis, sorr; Ofve been here sence
av the clock"

President Van Buren.

Among the many stories tcld by
Thurlow Weed about Martin Van
Buren, was one narratlng an incident
which occurred on the deck OF Hud-
son river steamboat, on the way from
Albany to New York. The merits OF
Mr.. Van Buren were being discussed
when the boat touched at Undertook,
and THE Little Magician" as he was
called, came on board. One of the
party had been dwelling on his nom
committalism, and complaining that
"a plain answer to a plain question
was never yet elected from him."
"I'll wager the champagne for the
company" added he, THAT one or US
shall 60 down to the cabin and ask
Mr. Van Buren, the simplest question
that can be thought of, and he will
evade a direct answer. Yes. and I'll
give him leave, too, to tell Mr.. Van
Buren, why he asks the question and
that there Is bet depending on his
reply"
This seemed fair enough. One of
the party Was deputed to 60 down and
try the experiment. He found Mr.
Van Buren, whom he knew well, In
the salon, and said TO him:
"Mr. Van Buren,, some gentlemen
on the upper deck have been accusing
you OF non-committalism, and have
Just laid a wager that you would not
give a plain answer to the simplest
question, and they deputed me TO test
the fact. Now, sir, allow me to ask
you: Where does the sun rlsep"
Mr. Van Buren's brow contracted;
he hesitated a moment, and then
seld:
The terms east and west are con.
yentional; but l"--
"That'll do" Interrupted the inter
rogater, "we've lost the betl"
