WHERE DOES THE TROUBLE COME IN?
To the Editor OF The Pioneer:
j. w. Bruce is right. and Abraham
Lincoln was right. The heavy load
the Church is carrying is it's dead
members. 1t seems to me that they
are not Christians. If they were they
could not countenance. encourage and
sustain wrong with their voice, vote
and influence. IfChrist were on earth
to-day, would He give His voice and
vote to party that depended on the
saloon vote for its success? Would He
give His influence and vote to party
that bought votes at the polls and sold
them in the legislative halls? By that
measure, church that do so
are not Christians, If to be q Christian
is to be follower of Christ.

HOnOrlng the Dead.

Memorial services will be to-mor-
row at 1870 A. M. in the Central
NJ. T.. Church, of Cleveland, on the
death of Prof. M. S. Campbell, Prin-
cipal of the Central High School of
that city, whose death occurred 1t
few days ago.
Prof. Campbell was raised in this
County and many of his relatives
reside here. He was educated in
our common schools and at the
Ohio University, but by some mis-
understanding did not graduate
with his class. For n number of
years he held the position of prin-
cipal in the schools of Portsmouth
and filled the position with such
honesty and usefulness as to bring
him forward as one of the success
full educators of the State.
In Cleveland, where he has been
engaged for some years he was
held in high esteem both as a
teacher and christian gentleman.
The name he has carved for him
self is an honor to the health
ful hills and honest teachers of
Hooking, and will be long held
in honorable remembrance by
our teachers who last year attend
ed our Institute at which he was
principal lecturer.

Republicanisni.

The anti-popular government
tendencies of the Republican
party is well eXemplified in the
government of Logan.
Owing to the influence of local
causes, the council has had Il Re.
publican majority for the last two
years, and every effort has been
made to force Republican officials
on the people. During last winter
the office of Street Commissioner
was abolished, ostensibly for the
incumbent did not perform his
duties to the satisfaction of the
intelligent Republican gentlemen
who compose the majority of the
council.
The Street Commissioners Office
was filed at the time the the off
ice was abolished, and for years
before been filed by n Democrat,
of course electe dby the people.
The Republican majority clearly
saw the strong probability of the
Office continuing in Democratic
hands hence it must cease to eX-
ist.
Better to rob the people of the
right of election than to jeopardlze
the chances of a Republican, and
so by the grace of Republican
majority in the Council a man who
votes the Republican ticket now
holds a nameless doubtful sway
over the streets and alleys of our
town.
Republicanism, if it has any prin-
ciple, is antagonistic to popular
government, and apes the garb of
royalty.
Two of the councilmen who
voted to rob the people have been
refused Il reelection and in proper
time they will all be retired to pri-
vate life. The voters have these
things in remembrance and will
not fail to enforce their rights.

This Regt. was mustered out at
Victoria, Tex. Oct. 81, 1865, and Mr.
Pursell's name does not appear
among those discharged.
Since the above record he has
not seen fit to use the initial an"
in his name but the proofs that the
present Republican Postmaster of
Logan and the party named in the
above record are one and the same
is full and complete.
Yet this deserter receives recog-
milton from this administration and
from the Party that poses as the
special friend and guardian of the
interest of the faithful and patriot
ic soldier, in preference to honest
applicants.
If we turn from his record as a
soldier and seek Il cause for his
appointment in his record as pol
itician we discover the same bar
renness. While acting as editor of
the Charleston, w. Va, Tribune he
advocated the election of Camden
for U. S. Senator, a political oppon-
ent and received two thousand dol
lars as the price of his perfidy. -Four
years ago he wrote articles against
r. w. Keynes, the Republican
candidate for Representative in
this county and aided in his defeat.
OF his private character we say
nothing. Here then is the man
who receives the Endorsement of
John Sherman, who assisted to
steal the preSidencyin 1876, and of
the first "Christian Administration"
the country has been blessed with.
How honest men can endorse
such Il party and such an adminis-
tration is, like the ways of Provid-
ence, past finding out.
Let us hear no more concerning
Republican honesty and Republi-
can patriotism, since this political
prostitute and deserter is preferred
before honest men and honorably
discharged soldiers.

The Honesty of the Republican Party.

If it he true, that "a man is
known by the company he keeps
the same may be said, with equal
truth concerning party, and
measuring the Republican party by
this standard the present admins
tration provokes the contempt of
all honest men.
Mr.. Harrison was elected and in
Quoted into Office with flourish of
claims for christian integrity un-
paralleled in our history, yet his
administration thus far has been
renowned only for its subserviency
to the most dishonest and disre-
puable elements of his party.
Notwithstanding the loud pro-
testations Of Mr.. Harrison that
competency and honesty, rather
than party service" should be con-
sidered in selecting persons for the
various positions under the govern
ment, yet the facts are that in al
most every appointment these bla-
tant protestations have been given
the lie.
The man selected for Postmaster
General, who, of all the Cabinet Of
ficials, bears the most intimate re-
lation to the masses of our people,
was given the position at the sug-
gestion of Senator Quay, of Penn
sylvania, for no other reason than
that Mr.. Wanamaker had raised
the sum of 100000 for the purpose
of corruptiug the voters at the cleo
ton, and who after the place is
obtained, by circular under date
of April Sth attempts to secure the
influence of every postmaster in
the land to increase and extend
the private business of Wanamak-
er &c Brown of Oak Hill, Phila. Pa.
1t is the first time in the history of
the country that a person occupy
ing the exalted position of a cabin
ct Office has attempted to use the
prestige of his place, openly, for
private gain and it is well to note
that this occurs under the loudly
hepalded "Christian Administra-
tion."
We might prolong this article to
a wearysome length with instances
of bad faith toward the people in
the selections of men for office, but
one other instance mt this time will
suffice,

that city are receiving wages so
low that they are compelled to ac-
cept charity or starvc. Such con-
dition in u country calling itself

too Infamous to require comment.
Spectators roaling the ill-gotten

MED enough return for their toll to
ward off starvation. Does history

instance, and still the somber
clouds gather over the nation. Is
it unreasonable to look for the
flashing of the tightening of popu-
lar wrath and the crashing of the
thunders of the indignation of the
people dayton Democrat.
WHY should protectionists object
to the assertion that their exploded
theory is upheld only by ignorance
and immortality Here is an eX-
tract from newspaper published
in the interest of unnecessary tax
alton at Racine, Wis: "China is
free trade country, and, according
to the theorists of that political
creed, ought to be rich. She is the
very opposite, and when q calam-
ity like the overflow of the Yellow
river occurs her people die by tens
of thousands, and the remnant can
only be saved by outside charity"
China is the home of the protective
system, as well as of all other
heathenisms. Every school-boy
knows that it is not now and never
was Il free trade country. 1t is one
of the few nations whose ports were
opened by outsiders by violence.
The Chinese wall is the oldest "pro-
tective tariff" that was ever laid.
From every point of view the
Chinese empire is monument to
the wickedness and the folly of
policy of exclusion such as has been
introduced in America for the eX-
elusive benefit of capital.-Dayton

The postmastership of this place

for the character of the Post
master the President is personally
responsible. We now desire to
ask the Republicans of this vicin-
ity what qualification Mr.. Pursell
possessed, over his numerous COM
petitors, that entitled him to the
office.
Surely not his service in the
army for that was but trifling in
comparison to several others who
were applicants. In fact under
the laws of the u. S. the record of
his gallant service should have
constituted the chief obstacle to
his appointment. The following is

ihe Prohibition Defeat in MASSACHUSETTS

The blow against Prohibition in
Massachusetts is staggering one.
But the Prohibitionist leaders
whistle to keep up the courage of
their followers. They say the con-
ditions in Massachusetts, and in
New Hampshire are altogether diff
ferent from those i'm Pennsylvania.
This may be granted. But how
about the condition in texas, Ten
nessee, Michigan, Oregon and West
Verginia?
TO place provision in the Con-
stitution, which would not com.
mend itself to the general judg-
ment of all the people would be to
weaken public respect for the
fundamental law.

This is the Way Our Export Trade il
Lost.

bUsts
Before the Sugar Trust was
organized this country's export
trade in refined sugars had risen to
more than $l0,0O0,000 a year, in
spite of the competition ofthe beet
root product of Europe. But the
sugar refiners saw that more could
be gained by combining against
American consumers behind the
tariff, and as Il result the export
trade in refined sugars has been
destroyed. While refined sugars
cannot come in over the tariff wall
the Trust has forced up the price
so high that none can 60 out.
There in but one effective way
of defeating the Sugar Trust, and
that is by reducing the duty on
refined sugar to revenue stand
ard. Then, should the home mon
oply send up the price too high,
the foreign sugar would be brought
in to redress the balance in favor of
American consumers. Under pres
ent arrangements American con-
sumers are at the mercy of the
Sugar Trust, and will continue at
it mercy so long as the prohibitory
duty on refined sugars shall stand.

shrewed game last november in
electing Il Republican Congress
man to get a Territory admitted
to the Union. Now that that re-
suit is accomplished, the return to
their party allegiance and pile up
big Democratic majorities as an
earnest of their intention of how
the State is to be represented in
Congress. Instead Of securing eight
Senators from the four new States,
the Republicans will have to fight
for halfofthem, with Il good chance
of loosing all while they are man
oeuvering to build up victorious
high-tariff party in the South.

Prohibition Doomed.

For the third time this spring
a New England State has recorded
the verdict of its people against
what is called Prohibition.
First came New Hampshire.
whose close affinity to Maine led
the Prohibitionist to be sanguine of
success. They were badly beaten.
Then came little Rhode Island,
with similar expectations and a
like result.
Yesterday the greatest of the
New England States, Massachus-
etts, voted upon Il constitutional
amendment in terms as follows:
"The manufacture and sale of in
toXicating liquors TO be used as Il
beverage are prohibited. The Gen
Court shall enact such suitable
Legislation to enforce the provis-
ions of this article"
Our dispatches state that the pro-
position was overwhelmingly de-
feated. 1t did not even have a
third of the popular vote in its sup
port.
There would seem to be pro-
found lesson in the course which
New England has of late pursued
on this solemn question. Prohi-
bition had its birth there. Prohi-
bition has failed there. The people
have lost faith in it. Theyare now
for High License and regulation.
