was addressed by an outsider upon the in

he could pay toward the Republican cam

The net result in the Republican bill Is

From the Baltimore suu.
Iowa is not called doubtful State, but on
the tariff issue II Is reported to be not very
strongly Republican. The anti-prohibition
sentiment is also growing and with the
railroad issue, will cause, ii is said, loss to
the dominant party. 1t is noteworthy
that good deal OF opposition TO prohibi-

pie greatly, II Is said and the underhand
method OF obtaining II is injurious TO
morals. The law has not increased the
amount OF vice. In the year before it
went into effect there were ,502 convic.
tons in the State, and in the year closing
September 80, 1886, after the law had been
two years in force the convictions num-
bcred 1,6ib. The enforcement OF the
law falls, il Is said, into the hands
OF bride takers aud corrupt justices,
who work IL for private benefit. Mean
while great deal OF property is conls-
Gated practically by its enforced disuse,
and the cities and towns OF the
state lose needed revenue. In some
parts OF the State the law may be
said to succeed fairly well, but in townsiis
results are no licenses and free whisky.
Such, at least, are the alleged effects. The
consequences is deep discomfort, which may
have some expression in the voting next
