PRESS OPINIONS.
THE MAIN CAUSE.


Cleveland Leader
The fight in Ohio was a whisky and
Sunday observance fight. Although the
taxation and restriction of the liquor
traffic and the enforcement of Sunday
observance are intimately associated, the
latter even more than the former was
the cause of Governor Foraker's defeat
and the loss of the General Assembly.
If Governor Foraker had not appointed
a police board for Cincinnati that was
determined to enforce the Sunday laws,
and if he had not written the letter urg-
ing the enforcement of these laws, he
would not have been defeated. His
course in this matter aroused the liquor
interest in both State and nation to ex-
traordinary and successful efforts for his
defeat. The elements in the large cities
opposed to Sunday observance were sol
idly combined for his defeat and ran him
1900 to 10000 votes behind the re-
mainder of the State ticket. Elsewhere
in the State the detection against Gov
ernor Foraker was on account of the
third term business and dissatisfaction
with his course at the Chicago conven-
ton, and was too small to have affected
the result.
The Republicans lost Ohio through
the effort to enfore the American idea of
Sunday observance, and the loss is a
terrible one to the people of the State.
1t means the repeal or great relaxation
of the laws that have given to the cities
of the State reasonable observance of
much desired Sunday quiet. 1t means
in some of them the absolute non-en-
forcement of all the Sunday laws and
the free flow of whisky for seven days
in the week. 1t means that because the
Democratic majoyity in the General As
sembly is pledged to directly bring it
about, and dare not fail to make good
its promise. 1t was on that issue they
won, although they masked their attack
behind "home rule" and "Forakerism."
The blow is one from which the cause
of law and order will not recover for
years if ever. 1t is definite triumph
of demagogy and misrule.
The tariff issue was not involved in
the fight in Ohio, and any effort to show
that it was simply betrays ignorance of
the situation or purpose to misrepre-
sent it.

PERFORMANCE OF THE PRoHIBs.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
1t ought not to be so hard lesson to
learn that laws are not properly educa-
tional, but ought to be the expression of
matured conviction and to respond to
public sentiment. The legislator should
pause and be very thoughtful before US
ing his capacity to turn a notion he may
entertain of doing something for the
public good into law, if he is not fully
persuaded that it is wanted by the peo-
pie. One reason is that law is certain
not to be enforced unless sustained by
public sentiment-and to go adding
laws that will become dead letters, is
not to help the people, but to degrade
the law and weaken the moral forces
that bind up the community.
Take the case of prohibition, which is
kept before the people with ridiculous
perseverance by those who have no other
chance to become great than to ride
some hobby that they call holy, though
it may be the merest sapwood or the
poorest spelter. There is no use at all
in putting prohibition into constitu-
ton, for it is patch on the constitution,
which can only cover hole by appro-
pirate legislation; and the legislation is
just as easily procurable and as effective
without the constitution. This amounts
to an axiom, and yet your Prohibitionist
gnaws his heart in an agony of aspira-
ton to get his dogma in the eonstitu-
ton. We have all the prohibition in
Ohio now that can be obtained in any
State-a great deal more than there
would be if we had all the prohibitory
laws ever proposed-for prohition does
not prohibit, but is one of the worst
forms of the free whisky nuisance and
abomination, unless sustained by local
sentiment. We have provided for the
expression of that sentiment in Ohio,
and thus enlarged the areas, not of dead
letter prohibition, but of actual whole
some temperance.
Still the Probibs pop up sereuely and
vote as usual daring to disregard the
unparalleled claims Governor Foraker
had upon every man of them to vote for
him. He had taken the faults of others
both legislative and administrative up
on himself, in his letter to the Mayor,
aud the whole force of the saloons was
1agrantly against him, but the Prohibs
stood back, and prated some story they
heard of something he had said about
the consequences to the country of the
Prohibition misfit, and so they voted for
their own what's is name.
Thus again are they in alliance with
the saloons-and have placed the State
under saloon rule-and they have aided
in the vindication of bribery, and also Of
forgery and yet their foolery has not
run its course. We presume as they are
constituted they feel happy in having
turned over even Iowa to the Democrat
ic party There is an object lesson for
you, Iowa gone Democraticl We sup
pose this must be because there are not
temperance laws enough in Iowa. There
must have been forty or fifty bills in
troduced, each Of which were little
more impossible than the other-the
passage of which would have saved the
State. There is Maine. with forty wears
or Prohibition record, and the venerable
Prohibs still clamoring for an addition

HOADLY is HAPPY.
HIS EXPLANATION OF THE DEMOCRATIC
TRIUMPH IN OHIO.

HIS EXPLANATION OF THE DEMOCRATIC
TRIUMPH IN OHIO.
NEW YORK, November 7.-Ex-Gov-
erner Hoadly was delighted with the
news from Ohio. He had received tel
egram from Mr.. Campbell declaring that
the State had gone Democratic by 10000,
and that there would be Democratic
majority on joint ballot in the Legisla-
ture.
"Mr. Campbell is my warm personal
friend" said Governor Ioadly, "and 1
am very glad that he is elected. He will
make a good Governor. Ohio is Re-
publican State, but it has developed
habit of going Democratic about once
in six years or so. Six years ago l was
elected, and six years before that Mr..
Bishop carried the State for the Demo
crats. The canvass was very energet
ic one and / am informed that Senator
Sherman actually excelled himself in
his efforts on the stump to help Govern
or Foraker to a reelection.
"The Democrats were arrayed square
" on a tariff reform platform, where
they always properly belonged. They
sweryed from it once, against my pro-
test, lust after Senator Sherman had
made an effort to cut wool out of the
tariff and failed. The Ohio Democrats
thought they could down Sherman by
declaring in favor of restoring the tariff
on wool, but they were inconsistent in
so thinking, and they lost the election.
I made a careful investigation of the
wool forces of the time, and l arrived at
the conclusion then that they had al
ways been over estimated. If the Dem
ocratic party in Ohio should declare
fatty in favor of free trade in wool l
don't believe they would lose at the out
side more than 500 Democratic votes,
and those would have very little effect
by gains by the tariff reformers in the
opposition parties. :,
1.-THE present victory is doubly graft
flying, because it saves us U. 5. Sena-
tor in place of Mr.. Payne, who will moi
be candidate. He is 80 years old anc
does not care for reelection. VINO
the candidates for the succession of his
seat are will be made apparent very sooI

SOUTRRETS.

Most squirrels keep two or more stores
of food. Wood, the British naturalist
tells of friend who found one of these
reserve stores, which squirrel had pro-
vided for an exigency, and the friend
in moment of thoughtlessness, deter
mined to play joke on the squirrel.
He accordingly replaced the nuts by
small round stones, and carefully con-
cealed all evidence of his visit.
One cold day in winter he passed the
rpot and found that the squirrel had
called there short time previously
This he knew by the fact that ten inch
es of snow had been scratched from the
top of the hole, outside of which the
stones had been cast by the disappoint
ed animal.
This struck the Joker with remOrse.
He said: 81 never felt the folly of prac-
tical Joking so much in my life. Fancy
the poor lii d fellow with scanty food,
but foreseeing long winter, resolved to
economic his little horde as long as
possible. Fancy him at last determined
to break this-perhaps his last-maga-
zine, and cheerily brushing away the
snow, fully confident that a good meal
awaitad him as the reward of his cold
job, and after all finding nothing but
stones. 1 never felt more mean in
my life, and really would have given a
guinea to have known that injured
squirrels address. He should have had
as fine lot of nuts as would have put
him beyond the reach of poverty had he
lived to be as old as Methusaleh."

The bravest battle that ever was fought,
Shall L tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you II find it not;
Twas fought by the mothers of men.
Nay, not with cannon nor battle shot,
With sword nOr nObler pen;
Nay not with eloquent word nor thought
From mouth of wonderful men;
But deep in walled-up wOman's heart
OF woman that would not yield,
But brayely, silently bore her part
Lol there is the battlefield.
No marshaling troop, no bivOuae song,
No banner to CLEAN and wavei
But o, these battles! they last so long
From babyhoOd to the grave.

MANS reason, ,suborned by his feelings,

unlike many dishonest officials who re-
turn overcharged bills, returns under
charged bills. If there be a transgress-

Mr.. DEPEw takes a philosophical view
of the late elections. One great fact in
regard to the Iowa election he is the
first to bring out clearly. "Gov. LARA
bee,' he says, 'as L understand it, had a
scheme for the general confiscation of
railroad property. This lost the sup
port of all the railroad employees and all
interested in railroad rorerties-These
men number 10000 in Iowa. On the
other hand, it was charged that the pres
ent Republican candidate was a railroad
man, so the railroad men would not vote
the Republican ticket because they were
afraid their wages would go down, and
the farmers would not vote it because
they were opposed to the railroad COM
panies."
AS to the Administration, Mr.. Depew
says that "when-a new Administration
comes into power there are always a
great many men who put high valua-
ton on themselves. Their estimate is
much higher than other peoples, and
each one demands that you accept his
own estimate. AS the old saying is, if
you buy such man at his own price,
and sell him at what other people think
he is worth, you will lose money. These
people make trouble at election time,
and whenever there is any factional di-
vision the Republicans lose district. =
Some men seize the opportunity to in
jure man in their own party. They
think that they feel good about it after
ward, but they are so ashamed of it that
they never tell it. There are always
plenty of accounts to square, and the
party that has the most gets licked the
