Temperance LepiSlation

1t would indicate deplorLble and
un-American sameness of character il
we all agreed on such u subject as
this. Neither is it to be expected that
similar measures will be advisable in
all cases. The most that we can hope
is to find our common principles, and
to act uuitedly and aggressively SO far
us we can; ready to make sacrifices in
minor matters OF meth ID for the sake
of agreement, and not standing stub
bornly for abstract principles at the
expense of practical results. Extrem-
lists must remember, too. that while
the moderate should be ready to
advance halfway to meet them in
matters OF detail, they clnnot be ex-
pected to yield single point Of
principle for the sake OF harmony. 1t
will therefore often be necessary for
those who would prefer to 60 the
furthest to make the greater conces-
sion. Those who believe that a given
measure is best can ask no compromise
| from those who believe that 1t is
wrong. Moderate measures are AT
least right, even though they be moi
the best. 1t is true there are those
who declare uncompromisingly thai
nothing but prohibition is right, and
WHO carry their belief to a logical con,
clusion. Certain OF these in the Wes
not long sicnc complained that in {
local election they were only offered
the choice between high and low Ii
cense, and so, as they could not con
SciQntlously vote for either ware prae
ideally disfranohised. Evidently, it Il
useless to count on the cooperation o
so sensitive consciences in the effort Il
secure practical temperance legisla
ton. Still, there is reason to believ,
that they are not very numerous
Probably they we're all incl uded in tn,
prohibition party of 1884, when tn
party's total vote was only about on
hundred and fifty thousand, and inclu
ded in that number thousands Of dis,
satlfed Republicans, Charles Woroes
ter Clark, in Atlantic Monthly.

THERE is nothing in the defeat of the
proposition TO prohibit the liquor traffic
in Pennsylvania TO discourage friends
of the reform in other states, fof it is
demonstrated that the movement was
not sufficiently advanced or senti-
ment sufficiently crystalized to warrant
a submission at this time: The repeal
of the prohibitory law in Rhode Island
by pronounced majority three years
succeeding its adoption is the result of
Indifference In enforcement. And in
this result is a lesson to friends of the
law in states which have adopted it
The law must be enforced to demon
strate its virtue. Where violations are
permitted or winked at it will become
unpopular and be declared failure
even by its friends. IT'S violation in
Iowa IL calculated to inoits coatempi
for the authority Of the state, to reflect
upon the sincerity Of the elements
which enacted the reform measures
and to stimulate the monumental braz-
enry of the democratic party, which
alone of organizations above the saloor
keepers conspiracy, dares to advocate
the repeal Of a law ~ sysry way in thu
best interests Of the state and peoBie
The laws as they stand should be rigor
ously and incompromisingly enforced
in every state, when there would be n,
question as to their remaining on TIN
ststute books. But the true friends o
temperance are not yacillating o
easily discouraged, ana Yi4 gegasd theg

Sons and Daughters OF v eterans.

The Audubon delegation to the en-
eampment OF Sous Of Veterans and
Daughters of Veterans held at Iowa
City last week was literally honored in
the disbursement of offices. Mr.. ID. l..
Freeman was elected Lieutenant
Colonel of the Iowa Division, 5. ", a
position for which he Is well qualified
and of which he is eminently worthy as
those who know best of his devotion to
the order and work in its interest
testify. From the time of the organiza-
ton Of Chas. stuart Camp his efforts
have been unremitting and much of
the success of that organization Is due
to his untiring devotion, while in the
Division assemblages he has been equal
ly interested. Several votes were given
him for the Colonelcy, but he gave his
personal opposition to this scheme.
The Daughters were no less fayorahle
to honoring Audubon. They elected
Miss Eva Freeman delegate-at-large to
the national encampment to he held at
Patterson, n. j., in September, Miss
Ada Cross, alternate. Miss Lena Ro-
senberg was elected department inspec-
tor. The attendance of Daughters was
quite large when it is considered that
this was the first stats enedmpMent
held in Iowa. About 1875 Sons were as.
sembled. All of the delegates speak in
the highest praise of the entertainment
given them by the good people of Iowa
City. and especially of the zeal and in
terest of the local members Of the order.
The next annual encampment will be
held at Washington. From the news
paper organ of the fraternity published
during ths encampment we make the
following extracts in regald to the Au-
dubOn delegates:

How the Girls in a New York "a,

How the Girls in New York Fac
tory Secure Carriage Rides.
IL don't think women faint MS easily
as they would have us men believe"
remarked horny-handed young man
who is employed in West Side facto-
ry.
There are number OF girls In tho
shop" he continued, ''who work where
the heat is often oppressive, and every
now and then girl succumbs TO the
heat and faints dead away. The head
OF the firm is kind-heartel man, and
he has given instructions to the fore
man in events OF this kind to order q
carriage and send the girl home. A
girl who can faint fluently is an object
Of envy and admiration among the 9TH
err girls, and she is sometimes regarded
with jealous suspicion, too.
'"Not long ago serious accident
happened to one of the girls while Mt
work, and then followed one OF the
most narrowing fainting recitals ever
witnessed. The girls fell in all direc.
tions; some went into Mysteries and
others had fits and tried to bite tho
gallant workmen who endeavored to
revive them. AS fast as they fell they
were carried out of the fainting de-
partment, and u doctor, who had been
sent for at the time of the accident
applied restoratives. Then, when they
were able to travel, they were sent
home in carriages, barouches and
cOupes, each girl in charge OF u trusty
male employee. A fat blonde, who was
among the first to lapse into utter un-
consciousness, was being carried out
by u little sparrow-legged Norwegian,
who had clasped her about the waist
from behind. AS he staggered along
under his burden the obliging girl held
her feet clear of the floor to make the
trip easier for him. But she went
home in a carriage just the same. Well,
the excitement had about died Out
when big, red-cheeked 200-pound
girl, who had never before been known
to faint, suddenly slid into state Of
coma. A dozen muscular workmeu
got plank under the girl and carried
her out to another room, where an
attempt was made to revive her, but
without avail.
The doctor was feeling her pulse
another girl was plying fan, the fore
man was pouring water down hel
back, and two men were slapping her
feet when big policeman came in tt
make a police report Of the accident.
He approached the group surrounding
the unconscious girl, when she acct
dentally opened one eye. AS she
caught u glilnpse of the big copper she
jumped to her feet and shrieked:
Il amt agoin' home in no ambu-
lance

ASH Shall Wiah.

Another year, beloved, has just lapsed
In the silence Of the yoceless past;
Another birthday dawns, and this, perhaps,
BY earthly reckoning may be your last.
Should this be so, and If surely knew
That ere another twclvcmonth should stand
Alone and sorrowful, yet glad that yOn
Were safe and happy in the heavenly land,
How should prize the precious hours so few,
I'm when our souls colld sweet communion
take!
How welcome every burden borne for you!
How cheerful every service for your sake!
Though heart were breaking, you should never
lack
For glow Of sunshine In my face each hour
All harsh and lasty speech would keep back,
And tenderness should be your daily dover.
Within that golden time, how sclfishncss
To loving sacrifice would yield the sway!
My constant aim would be to help and bless,
And prayer for you my greatest joy each day
But since, beloved, 1t doth not appear
Whether our pathways shortly shall divide,
Or whether, In Gods mercy, one more year
We shall in earthly fellowship abide;
will begin, on this your birthday morn,
To serve, and speak, and sacrifice, and pray
As shall wish had, when you are gone
From empty arms and longing eyes away.

A Pointer for Marriageables.

The marriage of Mr.. L. w. Krittinger
and Miss Rosa Heuss in Lincoln town
ship on the 14th inst, was the culmina-
ton of courtship so novel and effec.
tive that we are confident certain of our
esteemed readers will be grateful for a
few of the particulars, a brief outline Of
the modus operandi. We shall be sat
isfied, at least, if some one shall find
bliss by the means suggested in the tale.
Mr.. Krittinger is very promising and
industrious young man, who had evinc-
ed but little interest in the fair sex.
But very thoughtful neighbor lady
with becoming solicitude for her sex re-
GREETED to see young man so well
qualified for the married estate drift
ing inadvertently into bachelOrhOOd,
hence she very casually took q reef in
his matrimonial sail by speaking of her
friend Miss Rosa Heuss, resident of
Texas, as a young lady of gentle ways
and large heart; one who would be
likely to take in time the stitch
to save nine, and who would keep a
warm lunch on lodge night. The idea
was rather precipitOus for Mr.. Krittin-
ger, but when resuscitated from his sur
prise he took kindly to it, and on the
first succeeding rainy day he secured
some rose scented stationery and indited
u delicate epistle to the unsuspecting
victim, gently suggesting the scheme Of
their mutual friend and further OK
pressing the willingness of Barkis, pro-
vided everything proved as represented.
His request for her photograph was
complied with, and the reproduction
was so attractive as to give a wonder
full impetus to the scheme. Mr.. Krit-
finger sent his photo to Texas and all
was as good as settled. Hoth were de-
lighted with the photographs. The
mutual friend invited Miss IIeuss to
visit her here, where she arrived accom-
panied by her father Monday, the 10th
inst. Mr.. Krittinger met the young
lady at the home Of the friend; each de-
clared the photograph Of the other a
base impostOr, a caricature and libel.
All arrangements were perfected dur
ing two meetings between the arrival
of the lady OH Monday and the happy
elimination before the altar presided
over by Rey, A. Ehlers, of the German
Lutheran church, In Lincoln township
on Friday, the l4th, in the presence of
small cOXpany of immediate friends.
The happy couple was in Audubon the
day following, secured the goods nee
essary to their comfort as well as a
splendid group photo at Harper's, in
which we imagine the expression shows
much more happiness and cOntentment
than is shown in the individual pictures.
Mr.. and Mrs. Krittinger constitute a
fine appearing and happy couple and
the wonder is they have remained to
entef the matrimanial estate by this
novel means, which mystery must re-
main unsolved until the books are f.
nally opened, revealing confirmation
of the long and fondly cherished sus-
piciOn that matches are made in heaven.
IIere is happiness and prosperity to Mr..
and Mrs. krittlnger ana rose jar and
potpourri to their mutual friend.

The most inveterate loaferS on earth
are the veddahs, or forest-dwellers, of
the Cingalese coast swamps. They
live out doors entirely and submit to
unmistakable hardships of winter rains

to the trouble of constructing wealth,

siOnately fond of sweet fruit, but such
is their horror for labor that even the
