and brings the young sprigs up to pubic
sentiment. mo- waiting for the sentiment
of the boys to lead her. Noah was
another fine illustration of bringing up
public sentiment to the standard OF one
brave r~esolute thinker. Noahs minority
got around to a majority quicker than that
of any other party, so far as we know, of
which history makes mention.
The fact of the whole business IS the
Republican and Democratic parties are
each afraid to lead in the matter of prohi-
bition and so throw the responsibility of
their failure on the people, or as they put
it, on the lack of public sentiment to back
up party action. That is about the whole
OF it. However, if the Republican party
dare not go ahead and make sentiment on
this line, if they cannot use the prohibit
ton pick and axe, we would like to see a
specimen of their tributary estopping now
and then. Il might do some good and we
are ready nov and here to give full credit
for whatever good work they may do on
that line.

We lift a warning voice and tell our
countrymen they have no timet to lose if they
would preserve from further piliage our
civil aud religious institutions. The two
hundred thousand saloons are hourly educat-
ing a vast mass of godlessness and throw
ing it across the path Of the Christian
Church. Under the saloon rule the Sab
bath is rapidly slipping away from civil
control. The rIotous element is fast out
stripping the growth of population. You
hear the muttering of the storm in the Gin
cinnati and Chicago communistic riots.
Rum is feeding this lawlessness. Shall it
crowd our country with a debauched, and
drunken, and Sabbathless populace? God
forbid such a calamity. Where is the rem
edy? In the ballot box there is deliver
aDce.
Don't approach that receptacle of a free
mans sovereign voice as cringing slaves
under crack of the party whip swung by
whiskey hirelings, but go bravely forward
and deposit ballots that speak righteous
convictions in defiance of d~emagogues, and
in defense of home and native land.-Er.

suffrage In the W. c. T. U.

The Roman's journal very clearly puts
the position of the w. G. I. I. in reference
to Woman Suffrage. Speaking ofthe great
advance the Prohibition party has made in
favor of the enfranchisement of women, the
editor goes on to say: 'Of greater signif-
icance is the advance the W. G. T. I. is
making in respect to woman's ballot. Moth
ing in the rapid and remarkable growth of
this most wonderful organization in all the
worlds history, is more remarkable than
the development of sentiment effort in
it's ranks in favor of Woman Suffrage. When
it started fifteen years ago to overcome by
persuasion and prayer an evil as old as hui
manity, it had no thought of ever wishing
for political power. But the stern logic of
facts and defeats has shown the need of the
ballot in woman's hands to carry out the
purposes of her heart" 1t has onle to
pass in the work of the W. c. 7. {. that a
patriotic man and a patriotic woman speak
from the same platform, upon the same
great subjects relating to the Government
of humanity. He speaks of s'the God-be-
slowed gift of franchise, and urges men to
use it nobly. Then he shows that when
good men shall have power to enact laws
they will give to women the ballot and she
will use it to help enforce these laws. And
so we must hear the most disgraeeful con-
~troversy OF modern times continuously
referred to by the most active thinkers, the
wisest, best and purest men and women Of
the country, and women must still bear the
result of her own cowardice, and ignorance
and weakness, and see the perpetuation and
growth of ian evil as old as humanity"
| because she did not take from the hand Of
the Almighty Father, the gift he extended to
her also, when he gave it to her brother,
when this country was founded. Let her
blame finale m an" because she is not ready
to take up her share of this social and pol
itical burden which it is her obvious duty
to bear, but let her profit by the mistake she
made two hundred years ago, SO far as Que
can profit by mistakes.

The speech of Senator Nevius, at Moore's
Opera House, Bridgeton, on Friday even
ing, Oct. 25th, was a grand and lnagnif-
cent one. as most speeches addressed to
the conscience, manhood and intelligence
of a listening assembly usually are. The
speech was quite free from the party
filings and rancorous p%hilippics character
istic of the campaign orator, and was a
manly and straightforward appeal to the
impartial Judgment of his hearers.
The address was most plausible, too,
skipping all the angular and sharply de-
fined political issues in controversy and
ION the prohibition question at least, the
only point We shall consider in this arti-
Gle, } gliding along to the discussion of what
in its presentation seemed self-eyident and
all sufficient facts. The speaker declared,
in effect, that the Republican party want
ed prohibition, and wanted it as much as
any other party, but did not want it any
faster or stronger than the people could
assimilate and make effective it's provi-

If our Republican friends expect to elect
their candidates, every mothers son of
them should go to work from now till the
polls close on Tuesday evening. There
will be lots of money in the hands of the
Democrats and they will try to buy every
man who shows airy disposition to vote
their ticket. The election Of Albeit for
Governor and Strang for Assembly is of
vital Importance to the rum sellers of this
State, who are running these men on what
they call in New Jersey the Democratic
ticket. Good Lord deliver us from all
such democracy as this.

YEAR BEFORE LAST

We bought and sold a few cases
of the LESTER BOOTS, made at
Binghampton, New York. They gave
such general satisfaction that We
quadrupled our order last year, and
this season we have already made
arrangements with the maker for a
much larger supply. All who have
had them want them again, and not
only them, but they send US new
customers, and SO it goes. 1T IS
THE BEST BOOT MADE. We
have yet to hear the first complaint,
but on the contrary all speak we'll Of
them. They COST NO MORE
THAN OTHER MAKES, and you
may as well have the best. Don't
forget US when you want to buy.

"We don't expect Strang to beat Ward,
but we think we can down Coles with
Kelly" said a prominent Democrat to a
Republican a few days ago. This is a
blind, and We can give those no are silly
enough to believe that kind OF talk a
pointer. They do hope and expect to elect
Strang. He was put there for that pur-
pose. They Of course would rather elect
Kelly also, but it makes little difference to
them if they don't. He was placed there
TO give the ticket a show Of responsibility,
and can do the run business nc good or no
harm. Strang is he man they have use
his election.

There are scores, yea, hundreds, of good
temperance Democrats in this county, who
are opposed to rnm-selling and rum-rule,
who will vote for Leon Albeit and Hiram
Strang, being trained up to the belief that
the county is better in the hands of Dem
oeratic rulers than Republican, and be-
cause they used to vote the ticket when
the party was run in the interest of the
people, and not for saloon keepers and
brewers, as it is in the State of New Jer-
sey in this year of grace. We confess
ourselves that in national politics we
think that Cleveland's election would
rave been better for the country than IIar-
rison's, but matters are different in our
state politics. The greatest good to the
greatest number of rumsellers is the bat
tie cry of the Democratic party in the
present New Jersey campaign.

We think the election of ex-Assembly-
man Ward from this county should be
made sure-his calling is already such.
The records of the late assembly term will
show that ~ all questions of public pol
icy, and more especially on the line OF
temperance legislation lin which Prohibit
tionists nave special concern) his course
and vote and influence was always
straightforward, honorable and consist
ent. We don't say this in the interest OF
the Republican party in any way, as we
have no interest in hat party further than
To secure the greatly needed temperance
legislation they have promised the people,
and will, we believe, be obliged TO rele-
gate them.

them, or perhaps We should say a couple

Ifyou believe in the perpetuation of the
rum-business and rnm-rule in New Jersey,
be sure and vote for Hiram Strang. He
was placed on nomination for that express
purpose and If elected will doubtless do
all he can to further the interest of the
liquor business. You car obtain a genu-
inc ticket at any tavern in the county, and
(although we dislike to say it) no doubt
possibly of official church members.

There are said to be eight thousand
saloons in New Jersey and millions upon
millions of dollars invested in breweries.
They all want Hiram Strang elected, II
if you are thinking that they won't try to
use every and all means to elect him,
wait till Tuesday and you'll have occasion
to change your opinion.

CLOTHING!

We read of large stocks of cloth
ing and low prices. It's an easy
matter to write d flaming advertise
ment, but sometimes difficult TO sus-
tain assertions by facts. We don't
aim to say anything in our
advertisements about II goods
that is not strictly true. 1t is well
known that our stock is at all times
the largest by far of any in this
county. There is none larger in
any town in South Jersey. 1t is as
well known that we are in position
to buy cheaper than others and at
all times prepared and willing to
work on close profits. This season
we are better fixed than ever be-
fore. We had most of our stock
made expressly to our own order.
Now therefore take notice, that if
you want to save from one to five
dollars on the purchase of a single
suit or overcoat, come to headquar-
tiers where you get full returns for
every penny you invest.
Buyers from Sw~edesboro, Salem
or Alloway, whose purchases
amount to TEN DOLLARS or
over, will have their fare paid both
