For many years past Kansas has been one
OF the strongest of the prohibition States.
Prohibition has been thought to be as thor
eughly entrenched there as in Maine, and
the idea of attacking it has been regarded
until lrecentlJ as an sbsurdity. The series
Of overwhelming defeats which prohibition
has received the past summer has encour-
aged the opposition In Kansas to such de-
gree that they are now planning an agita-
ton for the re-submission of the prohibitory
amendment to the people. No cause ever
suffered more from the ill-advised action Of
Its friends than has the cause Of prohibition
during the last year. Indeed If there were not
every reason,to believe In the sincerity Of the
Prohibition leaders, one would be impelled
DO eonstrue their performances Of a year past
as q disguised attack on the cause which
they had at heart. As 1t Is they can only be
attributed to lack of foresight quite phe-
nomenal. What sense was there, for in :
stance, In submitting constitutional prohi-
bition amendment to the people of New
HampshireP Prohibition was on the stat
ates, and nobody thought OF taking it off.
IL would have ayalled nothing practical to
have 1t put In the constitution. Yet for the
chance Of gaining mere shadow. the Pro-
hibitionists assumed the risk of losing the
substance. They.did not gain the. shadow,
and If they did not lose the substance they
greatly imperilled It, What prohibition
needs is some leaders of shrewd sense-some
leaders who will give their attention to the
advancement Of their cause, and who will
not fritter away all their energies in vain
effort to smash the Republican party.

be able to perceive that this is an express de.
mand for the enactment of civil service
law.
-FOUR years later the National Republican
convention, which nominated Mr.. Blaine,
declared that:
81, me reform OF the civil service auspiclously be-
gun under Republican administration, should be
completed by the further extension of the re,
formed system, already established by law TO All
me grades of the service to which it is applicable
The spirit and purpose of the reform should be
observed In all executive appointments, ana all
laws at variance with the object of existing re-
formed legislation should be repealed. 10 the end
that the danger to free institutions which turks in
the power OF Official patronage may be wisely and
effectively avoided.
Mr.. Blaine in his letter of acceptance en-
dorsed the sentiment of the platform in this
language.
Impartiality in the mode of appointments TO be
based on qualification, and security of tenor to be
based on faithful discharge of duty, are the two
ends to be accomplished. The public business
of the government from an control of appoint
ments and the executive will be relieved by sub
lecllng appointments to fixed rules and thus re-
moving that from the caprice of favoritsm.
Only one year ago the Republican party in
national convention assembled, declared as
follows:
The men who abandoned the Republican marty
in 1884 and continued TO adhere 10 the Democrat
iic party, have deserted, not only the cause of
honest governments Of sound finance, the freedom
and purity of the ballot, but especially have de-
serted the cause of reform In the civil service We
WIN not ian TO keep our pledges because thew
nave broken theirs: or because their Candidate
mas broken his. We therefore repeat our decls
ration OF 1884, to wit: "The reform of the civil
service. auspieiously begun under Republican
administration. should be completed by the fur
tner extension of the reform system already es-
taDnSned by law to all the grades of service to
which 1t is applicable"
zen. Harrison in his letter of acceptance
commented upon this plank of the platform
as follows:
The law regulating appointments to the civil
service received my support in the Senate, in the
belief that 1t opened the way to a much needed
reform. still think SO, and, therefore, cordially
approve the clear and forcible expression of the
convention upon this subject The law should
have the aid of a friendly Interpretation and be
faithfully and vigorously enforced.
The PRESS is curious to see if the Farm
ington Chronicle in the face of these decla-
rations will continue to insist that the civil
service law is relic of the nearly extinct
Mugwump, and ought to disappear, because
the Mugwump, its parent, is disappearing.

The revolution in Brazil appears to have
accomplished already what 1t set out to,
namely, the establishment of a Republic In
form. The King has promptly abdicated,
not unwillingly either, for some time ago he
manifested willingness to take himself out
Of the way whenever the people desired. 1t
is by no means clear, however, that the peo-
pie have had much to do with this revolu-
tion. The army seems to have been at the
bottom Of it. But whoever its originators,
1t seems, for the time at least. to have been
successful It Is very much to be doubted If
the new government, though 1t may be more
republican In form, will be more so in es-
senne. Dom Pedro appears to have been con-
tent to enjoy the forms land insignia of roy
atty without much Of its substance. The
government has been administered by the
ministry and the Senate and the chamber of
deputies, to which the ministry was respon-
sible. Indeed the government has ap-
preached as near to republic in its sub
stance as the intelligence of the people would
permit, and we doubt If 1t gets much nearer
now that the form of royalty is abolished.
The country is not far enough advanced for
arepublic like that Of the UnitediStates
founded on universal suffrage

Indigestion

S not only a distressing complaint, of
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
Liver complaint and Indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years suffered untold agony, was
reuuceo almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that took seemed to do
any permanent good until / commenced
the use OF Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
filla could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each day, and after a few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, / found myself we'll
woman, able to attend to all household
duties, The medicine has given me a
new lease of life."
