Rrohlbltlonlsts and DemoeFats.
If there were any doubt Of the pur-
pose and temper of the prohibitioniats
it has been removed by the election Of
last Tuesday. It is quite immaterial
to them who the candidates may be or
what their attitude, or even what the
attitude of their party may be toward
temperance Legislation. The one end
and ambition of the prohibitionists is
to break up aud destroy the Republi-
can party. They keep this object in
view first, last and all the time. They
seem to think that such des-
truction would lead to the upbuilding
and success of their own party much
rs the decline and demise of the Wing
party prepared the way for and rem
dered Inevitable the Repuplicauparty.
The votes in New York, Ohio, and
Iowa all point the same way, and give
emphasis to the conclusion.
There have been several such parties
since the war. the Greenback party
being the most formidable Of all, and
more are to be expected. The Repub.
licans must expect that sort of difficult
ty to arise. Political vagaries will
continue for many years to come to
dream dreams and see visions Of great
success, installing the Wing ghost for
their own shadows cast before. There
is nc escape from this. It is to be ex-
pected as a matter Of course. When
such a political disturbance, arises
there is only to abide its naturally
subsistence in the patience of hope.
Today the spectacle is presented Of
Governor Hill, the most extreme ase
Of subserviency to the whiskey inter-
est ever known 10 American politics
on a State scale, persistently aided
and abbeted by the prohibitionists.
The same general fact, with less
personality, is presented in Ohio aud
lova. Tie country 1t large can not
fail t" take note of this close and
abhorred alliance. It is inevitable
that the sincere friends of Prohibition
the nonpolitical masses, will become
Disguised with this sort of thing, and
prohibition as a distinct political Or
g~anization will go the way Of the
Greenback and the Henry George
parties and kindred political toad
stools. This may come soon,, " it
may be delayed somewhat, but. how
ever delayed, come It must. A party

An exchange is agitating the
scheme to name all country roads, as
streets are now named, and to number
the houses along these roads. THE
CHIEF thinks the plan is a good one
and should be adopted BY county
boards. At present the roads have
no designation except as iu"idently
fall to them, and it is often difficult
for strangers to find their way with
out frequent inquiries. Name your
roads and let the name appear on
