1t has been we'll said by the Egening
Post of New York that "the experience
of the Michigan Republicans shows that a
manly and Straightforward fight against
the saloons is in the long run the best
policy. The attitude of the party did at
first hurt 1t, and some of the faint heart
ed at the last state convention wanted to
adopt a compromise policy; but the ma
jority held that the only safety was in a
square fight. and it was made. The sa-
loon influence went en- masse to the Dem
ocrats, but the Republicans more than
made up for any losses of that sort by
gains from the better class of Democrats
electing two.thirds majority in each
branch of the Legislature. If the Re-
publican party will take the same bold
attitude against the saloon in every part
of the country, it will accomplish every
where the same result that it achieved in
Michigan.

THE LOCAL OPTION LAW.


The following address has been issued:
10 the friends OF practical temperance re-
form: at conference of the representa-
tives OF the various temperance organiza-
rions IN New Jersey, held recently in
Trenton, the undersigned were appointed
COMMITTEES to carry out the conclusions
OF the conference, which were, that eff.
forts should be made by petition and by
public hearing before the Legislature TO
have the Local Option High License law
retained on the statute book without
any amendment which shall weaken its
provisions or lessen its penalties"
The committee suggest that all temper
ance, law aud order, Sabbath and other
organizations favoring the present Local
Option High License act, appoint repre-
-sessatives to attend legislative hearing
in Trenton at such time as the Legisla-
ture may appoint, to present reasons for
the retention of the act.
The committee call attention to the
fact that the movement which result lied
in the passage of the Local Option law
was entirely bipartisan and non secta-
rian; that members of both political par
ties voted for it in the Senate and in the
Assembly; that if it was a Republican
Legislature which passed it, it was
Democratic Court which pronounced it
constitutional, and that in all elections
held under 1t partisan and sectarian in
terests have been sunk out of sight 1t
was peoples movement which secured
the law, it is the people who welcome the
law, and it is for the people to ask that
it be retained. Under it elections have
been held in Cape May, Cumberland,
Salem, Gloucester and Warren counties;
and it was received with as much favor in
Democratic Warren as in Republican
Cumberland. In nearly all the remain
ing counties preparations are being made
to hold elections or to secure orders for
elections. Huhter,lon votes early in Janu-
airy, and other elections follow.
The demand for repeal comes, not from
the people, but from the saloons. Let
those who do not wish the saloons to
sweep SO good and equitable law from
the statute book, and take from the peo
pie right which they have long craved
and are faithfully using, send their pro-
test at once to the committee through
Rev. A. E. Ballard, of Ocean Grove, New
Jersey, so that these protests may be col
lated and presented to the Legislature.
(Signed by the committed II. X. Car
roll, Plainfleld, Chairman A. V. D.
Honeyman, Somerville, Secretary; A. E.
Ballard, Ocean Grove.

An historic hoase has just been demol

An historic house has just been demol-
ished at Harrisburg, Warren county, N
j., known as the General Hill House. ,"
IL was built toward the close Of the last
century, and was still in good state of
preservation when torn down. The house
for years has had the name of being
haunted. There is story of crime con-
nected with the Hill mansion. General
Hillwas commander of the militia in the
year 1f99. On September 25th of that
year soldier named Uriah Alberston did
something that greatly incensed the com
mauder He then ran away, and General
Hill pursued him, overlook him aud ran
the end of his sword into his eye, pene
trating the brain and causing instant
death. He was tried for murder and &C.
quilted, but, so the legend runs, he was
pursued by phantom day and night un-
til the hour of bis death, which occurred
in few months afterward from remorse.

Settle Up.
The first of January is the annual set
Ting up time. In order that we may pay
our debts, it is necessary that we col.
lect what is due us. There is an mex.
plicable Indifference on the part of many
people to their obligations to the printer.
Not only do many subscribers let their
subscriptions run two, three aud four
years before paying, but our job printing
department also suffers from 'long time"
customers. With almost all kinds of
trades, bills are due at thirty days, but
people who settle promptly with others,
allow the printer to wait six months and
year in many cases. Business is bust
ness" Hereafter we shall expect the
same prompt settlements that prevail in
other branches. We have sent out many
bills and shall send out others this week,
and we expect a prompt response.

Buying Votes.

The Louisville Courier Journal Dem. J
says of vote-buying: "The best men
weep over it, aud wipe their eyes to write
subscription to the election fund. Very
pious men smother conscience with the
self communion fancy that what they give
is attended for the legitimate expenses of
the campaign. But every one knows,
from the preacher to the poll worker,
from the exalted giver to the lowest down
takef, that in election funds everything
goes, all trickles down into the great buy
ing fund. While we all deplore it, and
shake our heads, why do we all do it ?
Why will not both parties honestly agree
not to use money? Why mnst the most
truly pious and honest Of us have our con.
sciences thus wrenched every time an
election comes on

We trust the Republican members of
the Legislature will meet the Democratic
proposition to reduce the license fees with
the counter proposition to double the
rates fixed by the present law, and fight
it out on this line resolutely and unitedly.
They will have the right in their favor,
and it is by no means certain that they
will not be successful. But whether they
succeed or fail, the issue will be sharply
presented for next Falls campaign, and
of the ultimate triumph of High License
as something more than a name there
cannot be the shadow of doubt. Nor

lawyers to replace the present Local OPP

The Democrats seem likely to lose two
members of the next Congress that have
hitherto been conceded to them. 1t is
said by the Milwaukee Herald, that Bar
wig and Bricker, the only two Democrats
elected 10 Wisconsin, are not entitled to
seats because they are neither native,
naturalized, nor the sons of naturalized
citizens, and unless satisfactory proof is
produced to the contrary the Republicans
will object to their being sworn in.
