WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. c., March 16. l!

washington, ~. VI, Marcn 10. 1850.
"Who will get Blaine's strength" is
the substance of the question that re-
publicans are asking each other every
day. Who will get it is problematic at
this time, but the fact that no one has
got it so far, is very patent. The Blaine
supporters have not stampeded. They
say they have no second choice, but
will support any good republican who
may receive the nomination. AS long
as things remain as they have been
since Blaines letter was published, it
would be perfectly absurd to attem pit
to say who will be nominated by the
Chicago convention.
There is rumor here that Cleveland
has written letter stating that he will
not allow his name to go before the no.
minating convention, and further, that
under no circumstances will he accept
the nomination. This letter is said to
be in the hands of ex-mayor Edward
Cooper of New York city, who is au-
thorized to make it public at any time
he may see fit to do SO. Such letter
may be in the hands of Mr.. Cooper, but
it will be safe to wager somethingIhand-
some that it will never be made public
unless Cleveland becomes convinced
that Hill will defeat him for the nomi-
nation. In other words Cleveland wants
the nomination if he can get it, but if
he sees there is no chance for him, he
will decline it.
Mr.. Randall's own special little tariff
bill will reduce the internal revenue
about $60,O00,0O0 per annum and GUS
toms about S15, 100000. Many well in
formed people here think it very likely
that the republicans will support Ran
dall's bill.
Senator ingalls, was voted gold
headed cane at the G.. A. r. fair in this
city as the most popular presidential
candidate.
At last Congress seems to have be-
come aware of the fact that our harbors
and sea costs are in need of defenses.
The House military committee have
unanimously agreed to report favorably
the CutcheoD bill appropriating So, 49,
900 to build a gun factory and purchase
material for the manufacture of heavy
ordnance. The Senate Committee on
Coast defenses have also agreed to make
a favorable report on Senator Dolph's
bill appropriating $126,S7s,s0O for the
purpose of building Notifications at all
the ports of the United States.

Mrs. D. Huntley, in a paper read be-
fore the Wisconsin State Horticultural
Society, draws attention to the adorn-
ment of our homes with flowers and
vines, and dwells on the fact that all
artistic skill Of painters can not rival
with Natures own decoration, saying:
The climbing vines are NATURES dra-
perry, and with them she covers beauty
and deformity alike with mantle of
loveliness. It's certainly a pleasing
sight to come across cottage over
decked with Virginia Creeper and
climbing roses, hiding the dust laden
walls Of the happy home within, and it
impresses one favorably to enter a
ground spotted with fower-beds and
ornamented with vine laden trellis.

.A7a Excellent Investment.

The majority of men in middle life
remember when Illinois or Wisconsin
lands were thought dear at $3.50 per
acre. Present value, $25.O0 to $4,000
an acre. Careful examination of the
records has discovered number of
scattered pieces of the very choicest
land in Minnesota included in original
land grant lying near railroads recent
ly built, and adjacent to market. These
will be SOLD cheap, and in five or ten
years will unquestionabiy be worth
several times present price. A
profitable investment. For further par

For Morality.

President Anterior of the Distillers'
Protective association, set himself in line
with the Republican party by saying at the
liquor mems banquet:
lam certain that the wholesalers, and
will say also the bulk of the retailers, are
as much opposed to drunkenness as the
Prohibitionists themselves. 1t not only
Is against our convictions, but it is also
hurtful to our business. We recognize
that we have an important duty to per-
form as citizens, and we have as much
desire to perform this duty properly as
any one. We have no desire to offend
againt morality. 1 know there is q wide
difference in opinion in this country as to
what constitutes morality. There is no
iron bound code here defDing it. There is
nothing in the Constitution to regulate
our individual opinions. The question Of
personal privilege will not be brought for
ward by us. 1t is, as l understand it, a
fundamental principle of this free country.
If the people of the United States want
to curtail this privilege we can stand it,
for God knows we have been educated up
to it."

One of the most important and gratifE
ing accessions the new party has yet re-
ceived comes this week from Georgia in
the person Of Walter B. Hill, one of the
Leading lawyers of the state, and one of
the compilers of Georgias code. Mr..
Hill, like thousands of other leading Dem
ocrats south, can no longer tolerate a
party that stands squarely opposed, by
its national platform, to all prohibitory
laws, AM ignores the demands of the best
citizens of the south. Recounting the
d6astardly course of that party's leaders,
Mr.. Hill says:
And this is politics! By common con-
sent politics is mud and 'mire' and filth
Honor, principle, conscience-theset things
have no place in politicsl Then, in the
name Of almighty God and this mighty
nation, there is need for new party
that shall bring honor and principle and
conscience into politics; a new party
whose streams of influence, springing
from the mountain ranges of great mis-
Slon shall flush the sewers of our politi-
cal life Such n party find in the ma
tlonal Prohibition movement And its
leaders are worthy of the party whose
nigh standard they bear"

YOUNG MEN, BEWAREl
Old Party Politics an Extremely Danger
Gus Maelstrom.


We hear it said on every hand that
politics is dirty pool, and one which is
Especially dangerous for young men to
enter. But we ask, what makes it dirty
and what makes 1t dangerous? Is it not
because the old parties are STEPPED in
whisky? If we would make it safe and
clean for young men and old men let us
empty the whisky out. We read of dele
oates of the two great parties having bars
Established on the trains by which they
travelled to Chicago and st. Louis to at
tend their respective conventions, and in
some cases one or more baggage cars
loaded with liquors. And their head
quarters in both cities were little better
than the common saloon. What Young
men can enter politics under such circum-
stances without danger of being wrecked
The Prohibition party is protective
marty In the fullest sense of the word,
and It is the only party that has the right
TO claim that name, 1t believes in pro
tective tariff SO far as is necessary to pro-
tect American labor and industry from
competition with the cheap labor and
manufactures of other countries. Tbs
Republican party also claims to do this.
It's willing to protect the manufacturer
of the coat and shoes the boy wears, but
Is not willing to protect the boy, and is
willing to protect the manufacturer of
the bonnet and cloak the wife should
wear but is not willing to protect the
wife from the fury of drunken husband
or from poverty and rags caused by the
saloon. 1t is willing to protect home
manufactures, but not homes from vice
and poverty and woe and the multitude
of evils which innocent wives and mothers
have to suffer because of the rum traffic.
TWAS the Republican party that built up
the license system, and it ought in justice
TO the people to tear it down. The Prohibi-
ton party aims to save to the country
over one and half billion dollars that is
directly and indirectly swallowed up an
nually in the maelstrom of the liquor
traffic It's great work is to save to coun-
try and friends the thousands of precious
lives that are lost every year through this
accursed business, and in addition save
the homes of our land from being invaded
by want and mourning.
The Prohibition party is the represen-
tative of great moral principle, its fun
damental aim is to restore to every man,
woman and child on American soil the
right to life, liberty and the pursuit Of
happiness. 1t has entered the political
arena to stay until this great end is ac-
complished and means to fight it out on
this line, with Gods help, if it takes q
hundred summers to win.-Rev. Thomas
Magill.

The Methodist conference recently held
in Louisville adopted the Prohibition
platform enunciated at the general con-
ference in New York some months ago,
and now as this organization proposes to
fight our trade it becomes our duty to
keep our eyes on them. In word, when
ever we discover that any bishop, preacher,

ting liquor for any purpose whatever, we

An Object Lesson.

The Norwegian parliament has voted an
appropriation equal to about 81 900 toward
INC me expenses Of the third international
temperance conference, to be held in
G(dhardistiana, Norway, in the autumn of
1907 This friendly act on the part OF
suo Norwegian government for the pro
motion of the cause of temperance is a
oHnely precedent, and an object lesson for
our own government.

POSITION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Maine Is All Right.

The official figures from Maine, as usual,
give larger Prohibition vote than that
reported in the papers. Our vote was

vote in 1884 And this in spite of Mr..
Blaine's desperate effort to create q tariff
stampede.

POSITION OF THE CHURCH.

The liquor traffic is so pernicious in all
its bearing, so inimical to the interests of
honest trade, so repugnant to the moral
sense, so injurious to the peace and order
of society," so hurtful to the homes, to the
church and to the body polite, and SO
utterly antagonistic to all that is precious
in life, that the only proper attitude
toward it for Christians is that of relent-
less hostility. 1t can never be legalized
without sin. No temporary device for re-
gulating it can become q substitute for
prohibition. License, high or low, is
vicious in principle, and powerless as a
remedy.-Board Of Bishops Of the NJ. E.
Church.
POSITION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
We know that the principles of regu-
lation are eternal and will stand. And
to those principles of regulation and tax

lican party is unalterably committed
