The Register thinks it was quite right
and altogether good thing for a Demo-
cratic stump speaker to harangue de-
luded audience in st. Alphonsus church.
Suppose the boot had been on the other
leg? Suppose the speaker had been a
colored Republican speaker? There
would have been council Of the local
notablcs, as there always is when
there is something up in political way.
After the council the Chinese mani
DARN of the pink button, Tlom Dallah,
and Doctor OF Laws John o. Pendleton,
would have taken UP their favoritc
tools and gone to work shoveling the
columns OF the Register full OF oriental
and destructive English. They would
have gone into sort Of literary cake
walk, the prize to go to the artist who
could keep it up longest and with the
most vigor.
But then the boot wasn't on the other
leg, and the same talent will probably
be turned loose under the guisc OF
"workingman," "Wage-Earner," and
more similar freaks OF the imagination
to show that the St. Alphonsus affair
was altogether right and regular.

OF course the Republicans Of the SEN
ate will submit measure to reduce the
surplus in the Treasury. They know
before they offer it that the Free Trade
Democracy will not accept it, for it will
not be Free Trade measure.
But the Republicans in the Senate will
offer their bill because they ought to,
and because the Republican party is not
Il cowardly party. 1t does not at all
times and in all things so so far us some
OF its members would have it go, but it
has always gone to the front when a
great principle was to be asserted, and
this is the present condition.
There is IN assault on the policy which
has made this the greatest OF the nations
OF the earth. The Republican party
declares its purpose to resist this assault
and, il the people give it the opportunity,
to show that the surplus may be reduced
without reducing the wages OF American
labor. This is the issue, and this is why
the Senate will offer Il tariff bill.

The Pittsburgh Times has taken the
trouble to collect from all the counties
of Pennsylvania the license returns
under the Brooks bill, which so stirred
up the liquor interest throughout the
State. 1t is very interesting exhibit
for beginning. The whole number OF
saloons in the State has been reduced
one-half. The revenue from the tariff
has been doubled.
Perhaps the judges have in some cases
refused license to men as fit to be Ii
censed as some who were licensed. Per
haps they have granted license to men
who ought not to have had it. There
was some doubt ms TO the authority
granted by the law, and this in part ac-
counts for some evident imperiections
OF administration. 1t never will be pos
sible to get perfect law or one that can
be administered perfectly.
Viewed in the light OF the grand total
OF results, the law stands in bold relief
us practical temperance measure. II
is strongly armed with restraining
power Iteuts right and LETT where pub,
lie sentiment requires heroic work. 1t
makes the dangerous traffic pay twice as
much as it paid before for the damage it
does.
The law does not bring about an ideal
condition, under which the sale is
stopped. Neither has the prohibitory
law done this in any State which has
adopted it.

Is there anything to which the despe'
rate Democratic managers, big and little,
in West Virginia, will not resort?
For the first time in the history OF the
State political stump speech has been
made on Sunday night in the lecture
room OF a Catholic church. Under the
pretext of dcliveringalec on Catholi-
cism and the colored race, colored
stump.speaker has been struggled into n
Catholic church to give him IN oppor-
tunity to let go with a iirade against
party, its principles and nominees, and
a hurrah for another party, its princi-
pies and nominees.
OF course there is not Catholic in
Wheeling who does not feel outraged by
the rank indeccncy OF tie performance.
There will not be one in the State who
will not resent the attempt to prostitute
the sacred surroundings to such pur-
pose. The scheme was founded on the
idea that the majority of the Catholics
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1888-07-31

are Democrats who will consent to any
thing to help their partys But At hap
pens that there aree Republican FCath6-
lies as well as Democratic Catholics,
though, of course, not 80 many OF them
in this vicinity. 1t happens, alSo, that
there is no Catholic who loves his
church, but resents so indecorousa pro-
ceeding.
Why did the Democratic managers
think it necessary to smugglc political
stump speaker into any sort Of church,
They could have arranged for their col
ored orator to speak in a hall or out of
doors. But that would have been to
"give away" the real object OF his mis-
sion, and, OF course, that would not do.
The man had been wetnursed for a week
by the local Democratic managers, but
the church authorities and the people
who were drawn in to give the show
countenance did not know this, nor was
it intended that they should. The wolf
in sleeps clothing was to "come as a
thief in the night and so he did come,
to the disgust of all decent people.
1t is a fair question how much OF this
kind OF campaigning the dwindiing De-
mocracy Of West Virginia can stand.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which SO many seem now to be afflicted?
II YOU will remember a few years ago
the word Malaria was comparatively I'M
known-to-day it is as common as any
word in the English language, yet this
word covers only the meaning Of another
word used by our foreiathers in times
past. So it is with nervous diseases, rs
they and Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Biliousness,
and all are caused by troubles that arise
from u diseased condition OF the Liver
which in performing its functions finding
it cannot dispose OF the bile through the
ordinary channel is compelled to pass it
Of through the system, causing nervous
troubles, Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc.

A Turkey GoDblor Raises Family.

ShcphTliOlrn Rcgister.
Mr. George W. Wolf, living near Van
clevesvilIe, tells us pretty good story
of an old turkey gobbler that he owns.
Some weeks ago the gobbler showed q
very earnest desire to so into the bust
ness Of Matching eggs, and set around ON
old door-knobs, tin cans, &C., until he
was given charge OF Il nest containing
some chicken and turkey eggs. lie was
delighted with his new occupation, and
stuck to the eggs closely. Unfortunate
ly, some OF the eggs were broken, and by
the time they were ready to hatch only
one little chick and one little turkey
came forth. But the gobbler was salts
fled, and he bestowed all his afcc-
ton on his two offspring. He takes
good care Of them, and devotes all OF his
time to their welfare, lowering over
them whenever danger appears or night
time comes. He can't forget that he is
still Il turkey gobb!er, and sometimes
struts around as only turkey gobbler
can. But generally he spends his time
ioraging Tor his little family, cluCking
atIectionately to themand ever and anon
waging war upon various inquisitive in
truders 1t is not often that turkey
gobhler engages in such an occupation.
