ROORBACKs.

Last night in darkness and sscresy q
circular 1.-THE latest YVES distributed head
ed ''Lst Us Talk Business, and No Fool
ing" No one had the courfgs to father
Il. The Office that printed it was so
ashamed of its contents that it did not
even affix it's customary imprint 1t ID
in the interest of G. W. ATKINSON and
contains nothing but tissuect bold false
hoods atout JOHN o. PENDLEToN. In SO
far as men of all parties know Mr.. PEN
DLEToN to te an homes! man, the thing Is
q gross insult to tie public. 1t is circuls-
lated within few hours Of election in the
hip, Of gaining a vote or two from the
ignorant.
This is by no means the only roorback
the desperate Republics committee has
prom uIga.ed within tie past twelve hours.
They have posted on the walls large bills
contsi ming old ard garbled sentences from
one or two Democrats and forged quota
tons from foreign newspapers intended to
trick voters into believing that the issue
is between protection and free trade.
Trey havs in the same way been post
ing up everywhere false tables OF wages
and innumerable ether reckless lies Of like
character.
Now, the Demcc Gratis are not doing that
sort Of thing. They are not conducting
Inst sort Of a campaign. This ia tie
d ference between the two parties in this
canvas. Tie Democrats have devoted
all their energies and time TO proving by
fair and open argument that they are
right and to pointing cut ths multitude
of fallacies and falsities that their oppo-
nents have put forward. They have too
much knowledge of and respect for the
int l!igerce of the American voter, on
whose ballot this government CT ours, tie
b:ss in tho world, is based, to make any
other SORT of campaign.
TIE party ttat is compelled to resort to
these irrational roorbacks in handblils'
on the walls ar d in the pras, is lost. For
the people wfo are to decide this election
ale not fools"

TIE ONLY EFFRCr.

Politics generally have been so warm,
that the Prohibition Amendment has been
rather ove1shsdowed.
But we vote on il ntxs Tuesday all the
came.
And the question is q vitality important
one to the people Of West Virginia.
In the first place, does prohibition
amendment prohibit? We have the most
conclusive evidence in the world, and, in
fact, it is generally conceded, that in all
the States that have adopted Prohibition
LIQUOR is sold in abundance. Not only can
it be got as freely az it can bs had now In
VIE sling, bat the traffic has been driven
iato the worst hands.
1t is beyond dispute that State prohibit
ton does not, can not, prohibit.
What, then, would bs the effect CT pre-
hibition amendment in West VirginliE
We should, of course, sweep away our
license laws by the adoption Of the amend
ment. Tie next thing is to inquire just
how much money the pubic treasury
would lose by this sentimental proceeding.
Here are the figures for last year, erded
Nav 81. The traffic in West Virginia
paid into the National Treasury:
Beer Tax 30 m
L. s License lax on Liquors wv w
Total .Si4 60

wheeling city lceGse tax-....'....'''' s$i'sS77
state taN.........-......' ''''''''''''''''''''
ro.0, ........ s7oS0I OF
Total~Whesi State and Nationalist las 81
Here we have it, that, by the adoption
of a D. ohibi.:ou amendment, the tax-pay-
ers of VS.! Virginia would Rave to make
good, in increased tares, over $73. 4.Ol'
for Of the city taxes we only mention
Wheelirg's) the amount Of revenue that
would be Gu! off by the adoption OF the
amendment. We are not go much concern
about the National taxss. Many If the
illicit dives that would spring up in every
hole aud corner would in fact provide
agairst Interference By the National au-
thorities with United States licenses. Bat
the direct taxes of our State would, under
prohibition, have to be increased over
S79. 3O4 Oh. OF this amount $44 .62l.7S
would have to be made good in StAts
taxss, while $34 632 % Wheeling alone
would he compelled 10 make up by an
increased levy on her people.
What would We get in return for this?
Would the traffic be decreased? We have
shown conclusive proof that it would roS
On the contrary, it would simply Re made
free. Anybody who could afford q room
and jug of whisky could enter into it.
Situated as we are within step Of Penn
syIvania and Ohio, liquor could be brought
here with the greatest ease in any guam
tity.
Oar own valuable brewing establish
mepts, being usele'sly driven out of the
Sta,e, would still continue to supply rs
from Ohio or Pennsylvania.
We should gain nothing AID losa much
by the adoption of the amendment.
