Testimony of Our Enemies,

Brewers in some parts of Pennsylvania,
more especially in Philadelphia, have been
in many instances agreeably surprised to
find that in place of the decrease, antici-
pated in consequence of the high license
law and its stringent control of the retail
trade, their sales have very largely in
creased. This is an unlocked for result,
In view of the fact that subsequent to the
new law going into effect on June 1, only
about one-fifth of the former licensees
have received licenses under its regula-
tions. The explanation is to be found in
the phenomenal increase in the demand
for bottled beer and sixth barrel and gal
lon packages, the latter the smallest in
which malt liquor can be obtained directly
from the brewery. So greatly has the
trade increased, that manufacturers of
bottles have been unable to keep pace
with their orders, though working night
and day, and have largely increased their
schedule of prices, The measure was in
tended to prove practically prohibitory;
the result shows how much easier it is to
make laws than to control reasonable ap-
petites. Journal.

The IryepFessible Conflict.

The conflict is now upon us. 1t Is q
life and death struggle. Fhe government
Is on the side Of the beasts; the people
make the government. Shall the rum
TEND still carry on his carnival of death9
Shall the rum minions, at the still, be-
hind the bar. at the bar, in the gutter, or
In the mansion, rule? Or is there enough
Of manhood among US to save Christen-
dom from the damning shame? The an
swer we mako to that question deter
mines fate. II Christianity has not power
to save Christendom, where is our hope?
With what face. then. can we go to the
heather? There is no devil worship in
Africa more degraded, more lost to all
sense of shame than the demon worshiper
of rum; no high priest of the sorceries of
heatheRism more diabolized than the
minions of Christian states authorized to
manufacture and vend the poison Pagan
Ism can muster no miscreants from all
her realms more debased than the rum
army; no fostering pest house-not even
the Chinese opium den-more deadly to
virtue than the Christian rum hole. Must
1t be endured longer? Must the race be
doomed to 60 into the future with this
milestone fastened about it's neck by leg
islators of Christian states? Are our
tyrants too much for us? Then farewell
to hope.-Bishop Foster.

The First Concern.

Blaine has arrived, and Republicans of
New York and vicinity made demonstra-
ton in his honor. A procession of about
10000 men and boys marched through the
streets bearing banners and transparencies
and yelling for Blaine. Since his arrival,
Mr. Blaine has made many speeches, and
it may be fairly said that he has set the
key for the campaign. 1t is notable that
not single banner or transparency bore
the slightest reference to the FIRST con-
Germ of good government" and Mr.. Blaine
has utterly ignored the matter in his
speeches. Certainly we need never ex-
pect good government from party man
aged by such leaders

"a Republican Brewer, writing to Tho

Pretty, but Lacks Pith.

George W. Childs, editor of the Public
Ledger, of Philadelphia, voices the honest
sentiments of his party regarding the so
called temperance plank that was shut
out of the Republican platform but
adopted by reclamation after q stormy
protest just as the Chicago conven-
ton was about to adjourn He says
of it editorially: cit is declara-
ton in favor of neither prohibition nor
high license. 1t is pretty and good, but
1T lacks pith and substance The Prohi-
bitionists and high license advocates are
very intelligent, earnest folk, and tho

The following correspondence between

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 9, 1888
Editor Southwest:
DEAR SIR-Inan editorial in your paper
of June 3oth, ult., you refef.to Senator
John Sherman having met the liquor deal
ers of Cincinnati in q saloon over the
Rhine, just previous TO last election, and
there made promises and gave assurances
that their interest should BIO protected in
the approaching legislature In Ohio, if
they stood by the Republican party 1
desire to know whether Gen. Sherman
has made any denial or offered any cor
rection to the case as stated by you in
your paper. A response to this would be
highly appreciated by the undersigned.
Yours, respectfully, E. F. RIgTBH.
E. F. Ritter-The Southwest makes no
statements except on what it believes to
be good authority. John Sherman did do
precisely as claimed by this paper, and
we have the assurance from brewers and
saloon keepers who there met and shook
hands with him. Further, Governor
Foraker and his henchmen are playing the
same game now, temporizing and promis-
ing all things to our liquor interests if
they will support the Republican ticket
this fall
John Sherman-nor his friends-has not
and will not deny single statement
made by us. Will not, because wo are
prepared to back all charges with spec-
fications and affidavits. Ed. Southwest.

Old Chestnuts

Forty eight years ago, while Harrison
was nominee of the old Wing party,
slippery Van" Buren, of the Democratic.
and Birney of the new third party"
which afterward grew into the Repub-
lican party, the following objections were
made by the Wings against introducing
the question of slavery by a new party:
l. 1t is moral question. 2. 1t should
not be carried into politics. g. The time
has not come. 4. A new party will
drive away our friends. s. Voting the
liberty ticket will be voting for tho other
party and we must choose the least of two
evils. 6. It will offend the old parties.
Z; Educate the people first. s. You can't
elect; what's the use? Do these argu-
ments sound natural to political reformers
of this decade? If those who then be-
ieved slavery was wrong had candidly
said so by ballot, who shall say that ma
nonal blot would have been wi ped out in
blood?

.Driyen from their former position by
the liquor and monopoly powers and
forced to contradict their own record. the
Republicans hope to hide their own du-
plicfty and weakness by raising the false
cry Of free trade" It is deliberate
falsehood devised by the politicians, and
the sober sense of the people will not be
deceived by 1t. The great mass Of think
ing Republicans, who Endorsed the plat
form Of 1884 and approved the manly
declarations Of Garfield and Arthur in
their messages, are not going 10 stulttfy
themselves by swallowing their svn con-
victions at the behest of the liquor power
of 1888. And the secondary Argument Of
the RePu bHcan party in this campaign *
lie. The cry that they are opposing The
saloon is false cry. Rs falseness IS
proved BY the free whisky plank; 1t Il
proved again by the simple mathematical
fact that no party can mako a AeaAway
against the saloon that depends xpsn the
saloon vote fer existence rhus We have
the spectacle Of greab political party. Of
honored traditions, but now undsr vtclens
control by the substitution Of vote bid
ding instead Of live issues, going before
the people OF platform of deubd. false
hood. What will the popular verdict be,
We have faith In tho Intelligence and
virtue of the great mass Of the American
people. Abraham Einoeta once said:
you can fool some of the people all Of
the time. and all Of the peopla sssne Of
the time; bat you can't fool al Of the PEG
pie oil the time" And tho Republican
party will afford another historic verifca-
tioA Of this quaint statement Of our eoun-
try's greatest man. But how long will
they continue to fool some Of the people,
and who is going to be fooled this year,
These are practical questions for our Re-
publican temperance friends-Home

In answer to the question: "What is
inc real difference in the two policies pro-
posed to the country" The Springfield
Republican says: cit narrows down to a

democrats propose to tighten the tax on
imports with a moderate reduction on
tobacco, enough altogether to stop taking
an unnecessary hundred millions a wear

The Republicans of Indiana in their
platform make the following declarations
Politics and legislation must be kept
free from the influence of the saloon. The
liquor traffic must obey the law. We favor
legislation on the principle of local option,
whereby the various communities
throughout the state may, as they deem
best, either control or suppress the traffic
in intoxicating liquors. "

the party hopes to wash its hands en-
