THE POWER OF EXAMPLE.

In referring to the vast amount
of good accomplished in Pennsylva-
uia by the Republican party by way
OF regulating the sale Of liquor, the
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette
says:
ut is to the Republican party OF
the sttte that the people are indebt-
ed for the High License Law. Had
the Democrats been in power the
liquor traffic would not have been
restrained in the least. Indeed, it ia
quite safe to say that the evils of the
saloon would have been steadily on
the increase under the specious plea
OF securing to the citizen "the larg,
est personal liberty consistent with
orderly government"
The example which the great
State of Pennsylvania has set to 9TH
or Common wealths in this most inn
portant matter is making itself felt.
The Republicans Of New York have
been waging a gallant fight for high
license as means OF restraining the
evils OF the liquor traffic and the
chief barrier in the way Of their suc-

The American Citizens VS.. Soldier.

Ii has been matter Of surprise to
many of the Potentates of foreign
powers that America preserves her
peace aud unity in tho manner she
does without the aid OF armed min
ions and large standing army.
Many of our own citizens have also
at various times entertained fears
that, in case of an emergency, our
Government would not be able to
maintain her stamina and enforce her
laws should there be au invasion by
foreign powers or an instruction at
homo These fears, however, are
groundless, as the history OF the
country will prove by taking into
consideration the attitude Of the
American citizen in general, whether
native born or naturalized. Foreign
powers maintain large armies, num-
bering hundreds of thousands, and
in some Instances over n million mep
