The population of Brockway Centre
is about 900, and we would say at least
one-half are troubled with some affec-
tion OF the throat and lungs, as those
complaints are, according to statistics,
more numerous than others. We would
advise all our readers not to neglect the
opportunity to call on their druggist
and get a bottle of Kemp's Balsam for
the throat and lungs. Trial size free
Large bottles soc. and 81. Sold by all
druggists.
y number of sharp women, claiming
to represent a Chicago firm, are can
vassing the country for the pretended
object Of introducing n new kind of
soap as a sample, asking that it be
tried and the result noted. In couple
of days the party returns and asks the
lady of the house to sign a printed tes-
timonial of its excellence, which is to
be presented to the grOcers to induce
them to handle the soap. The testi-
monials generally turn up as orders
for from 80 to $40 worth of tho soap at
big prices. The wording is very in
genious, and 10 out of 20 ladies will
sign it without an idea that it is any
thing else than what it parports to be.

The New States.

In the draft of the constitution for
South Dakota, which has been pre-
pared for submission to the people,
there is one requirement which is
step in advance. It is required as
qualification of voter the ability to
read the Declaration CT Independ-
ence in the English language. This
may appear an unjust requirement of
intelligent foreigners, who may un-
derstand the character of our free
institutions; but there is an absolute
necessity for some intelligent qualif-
cation more than is at present insist
ed upon. Our form of government
is based on the intelligence of the
people, who are in fact the sovereign
power. The idea that an illiterate
people can maintain and uphold
republican government is preposter-
Gus. The qualifications for voters
In this state are not what they should
be. When voters are sometimes
seen, at the polls of election who
cannot read the ballots put into their
hands, it must be clear to all think
ing men that the interests of the
country committed to such men can
not be safe. But it is no easy mat
tel to change the voting qualification
in state after it's institutions have
become settled. In new states, like
those now preparing for admission
into the Union, it is easy to regulate
the right of suffrage in accordance
with the advanced intelligence of
the age. The ballot is a sacred
trust; it involves the rights of the
people and may be productive of
evil if not intelligently exercised.
Whether the safeguard proposed for
South Dakota is the proper one, is
an open question. The people will
no doubt adopt some suffrage quail
fcation to prevent illiteracy from re-
tarding the progress Of right govern
eminent in the state.

ments should not be on the statute
book. It is doubtless true that in
most cases laws prohibiting the sale
of intoxicants have failed to accom-
plish what was expected of them.
But it does not prove a law morally
wrong because the people do not
enforce it. IF it were the rule to
judge only such laws wise as public
sentiment is disposed to enforce, and
take from the statute book all such
as are not made effective, it would
throw out many really wholesome
cnactments. If all the laws in Wis
consin for the protection of morals
and good order, which are not en-
forced, should for the reason Of their
being imperative be repealed, the
state would be charged with relaps-
ing into heathenism. 1t is unques-
tionably true there are not few
members of legislative bodies, who
vote for laws regulating public NOR
ais which they do not themselves ex-
pect strictly to obey, but because
they are demanded by an enlightened
constituency, they are voted for.
The prevalence of crime is not, as
many suppose, chargeable to the
want of more stringent and better
laws, but it is for the reason public
sentiment is too weak or indifferent
to their execution. If the laws of
this state were all enforced to the
letter, it would bring about radical
change in the condition of society in
many towns, and especially in every |
village and city in the state Many
people are looking for
ward for more stringent laws for
the evils resulting from
the liquor traffic. 1t is the opinion
Of able lawyers, who have given the
matter consideration, that our pres
ent laws are sufficient to reach all the |
necessary reforms. All that is need
ed to achieve desired results is a
united public opinion. Our advice
to temperance people for the present
is to hold fast what they have.

IT is interesting to contemplate
the wonderful changes in the facili-
ties of travel and intercommunica-
ton between different countries and
parts of the world during the past
half century. Nations a thousand
miles apart, which seldom inter-
changed visitors, now by the con-
struction of railroads and improved
facilities for travel by water, are
brought into near proximity, Seven
ty-fve years ago, a worlds conven-
ton called to meet in London or
Paris, was deemed an extraordinary
undertaking. Now worlds conven-
tons called for the consideration of
religious, moral, educational or other
interests are no uncommon occur
rences. The worlds Sunday school
convention, which has just closed it's
session in London, is reported to
have been great success Most of
the countries of Europe were repre-
sented by delegates. The largest
representation was from Great Brit
ain, followed next by the United
States and Canada. Australia, only
a few years ago an almost unknown
country, was we'll represented in the
convention, Australia, commonly
reckoned in distant part of the
world, is becoming a model of gov
eminent: the ballot reform is credit
ed to Australia The meeting of the
worlds Sunday school convention
gives hopeful view of the strong
hold these schools have taken on all
Christian denominations throughout
the world.

Do Prohibitory Laws Prohibit !?

Certainly not always. There is
not law in the state prohibiting
wrong-doing, from the crime of muir
der down to minor offense, in
which the law has proven an effect
uaI prohibition. Violations of laws
involving criminal offences, are &C.
urring with alarming frequency. In
dancing over the columns of sin
lie number of a leading Chicago
c1aily paper, about twenty paragraphs,
long and short, were counted involv-
ing criminal offences. This is the
record of one day in one public
journal. What must be the total in
the whole country ? The press has
industriously sounded it throughout
the land, that laws prohibiting the
sale of intoxicating liquors do not
prohibit, and therefore such enact

What Does It All Mean

A German Republican Milwaukee
resident takes vigorous exceptions to
the threat of Paul E. Sauer. of
SHADES Corners, concerning the
votes of German Republicans and
replies thereto in the Daily Senhuel
as follows:
Who is Paul E. Sauer, of SHADES
Corners, anyway? / have taken a
great deal of delight in the broad
gauge manner with which he pos.
lures as a." the German Republi-
cans. He is too public spirited al
together in the matter and had bet
ter look more to his health. It is
quite big operation, we are told,
for the tail to wag the dog, and in
this case I fear that the tail will suf-
fer severe injury, because the dog is
such very big dog and the tail is
altogether too thin.
/ am also a German Republican
and would say to my cross corners
friend that | can find him in this
state a hundred German Republicans
every day as many days as his pa
thence will last, who are most hearth.
ly in favor of the Bennett law. He
himself can write good English
why does he want to allow bigoted
or uneducated pedagogues to bring
up our boys and girls, who in a gen
Grafton will be the state, without an
equal chance !? There are schools in
the state where even the poorest rud-
lments of learning are hard to &C.
quire. Now if it is the interest of
the parents to have their children
learn Norwegian it does not concern
us, but it does concern us when Nor
wegian is the only language taught,
as in one instance | heard of in this
state, SO that the scholars learn less
of the official language of this coun-
try than they would learn in a COM
mon school in Norway. 1t is for the
best interests of this commonwealth
that all its citizens shall have a COM
mon language-it will not be neces-
sary to argue on this point-if Mr..
Sauer objects to even the bare rudi-
ments of English being taught in the
schools, let him say SO and not mince
matters. If the Republican party
does what is right it will gain more
votes from right-minded citizens
than it will lose.
But what has the Republican party
to do with this The Bennett bill
appeals to good sense and political
wisdom, not to party prejudice
Must l be Republican to ask that
reasonable amount of English
shall be taught in schools? Would
my vision be dim because | happen
to disagree with my excited friends
in politics Would I not want this
law enforced, being an honest Dem
ocrat as much as if I were a Repub-
lican ? Furthermore, what is there
in this bill to prevent teaching Ger
man or any other language or study?
Why should German Republicans
take it to heart more than Irish or
American Republicans or Democrats?
What has the Sentinel ever said edi-
torially in this matter that you can
object to? 1t certainly has taken
the position that 90 per cent. of the
intelligent citizens will take.
Did it ever occur to our friend that
principles, not race prejudice, make
the Republican party? That what is
right and good will triumph even if
progress once in a while strikes i'm
pediments. Why, my dear Mr..
Sauer, there is even a man down in
Georgia who says the earth stands
still and the "sun do move"

The Worlds Statesmen.

If the question we're submitted to
the people of England, Scotland and
Ireland, who of all their leading men
is the greatest and most influential
statesman, the choice would fall on
Gladstone. So if the same question
were asked of the intelligent people
of Europe, the like answer would no
doubt be given That too, if we
judge rightly, is the opinion in this
country. A distinguished trait of
Gladstone, and one which has helped
him to achieve greatness as states
man, is his avoidance of counting ap-
plause. He has often espoused
causes which he knew for the time
being would be unpopular. An ex-
ample of this is seen in recently Civ
ing his influence to the government
measure to increase the income of
the Queen contrary to the strongly
expressed wishes of a large body of
the people, who declare that the ex-
penses of the Queen are now too
large and should be curtailed. Mr..
Gladstone doubtless assumes it to be
a settled fact that ma jority of the
people of England have no desire to
dispense with royalty, therefore, the
Queen should be placed in position
where she. may in accordance with
long established custom, dispense
benefactions on her worthy subjects
and charitable objects. This is not
the republican idea, but it attaches
to the monarchial forms of govern
ment, Gladstone has passed
through many severe conflicts of
opinion and often assailed, yet be-
cause of his inhexible adherence to
what he believed to be right, has
come through unscathed.
France, Germany and other ma
tons of Europe have their chief
representative statesman. Who &C.
cupies that position by common con-
sent in the United States there are
probably some differences of opin-
ion. But for far reaching and CON-
prehensive views of national affairs.
probably, if not now, the time is not
far off when James G.. Blaine will be
accorded that distinction. Among
his plans for the advantage of the
nations on the American continent is
a congress of the states and nations
of North and South America to set
tie and adjust all matters of differ
ence calculated to lead to war. Mr.
Blaine brought this measure in the
interest of peace to the attention of
the people several years ago and
urged action at different times. It
is stated the effort to secure such a
tribunal for the arbitrament of dis
putes will be renewed the present
year. The ultimate success of a
plan which will lead the civilized ma
tons to abandon the barbarism of
war will entitle its author to the ap-
pellation of the worlds statesman"
