STILL FIGHTING.


THE GLOBE took night off and last
evening went to hear few thoughts on
prohibition at the court house. The
speakers were Mr.. TEMPLEToN, candi-
date for congress in this district, and
Col. J. II. SoUTnGATE, of Durham. A
prohibition speech necessarily implies a
great deal of what we have heard before.
THE GLOBE does not take any stock in
prohibition, but it takes stock in the
opinions Of smart men, and respects them,
whether it believes what it hears or not.
has no idea of what oratory is, or else he
is the only orator in the country. AS to
his logic, that perhaps is matter Of opin-
ion. He said that the republican party
died in 1868 and had been walking around
in it's grave clothes since that time, and
in the next breath he said that the repub-
lican party was dying. We object to
such vague and incOmprehensive propo-
sitions. If the republican party is dead
as Mr.. TEMPLETON stated, then we want
to call coroner. If it is dying, as Mr..
TEMPLETON also stated, then we want to
call physician. In short, Mr.. TEMPLE
TON did not present his case. He COM
menced with an apology for the prohibit
ton party's existence, defended it's exis-
tence throughout his talk, and finally
concluded by declaring that the third
party had a right in the field.
In the first place, no living man ever
had the supreme gall to claim that the
party if they wanted to. No man ever
questioned the right of prohibitionists to
meet and vote and do whatever they
wanted to do so long as they were peace
full and law-abiding. An occasional crank
has risen and shot down leader, but
that did not represent anybody. GUITEAU
killed GARFIELD, but he was a crazy man.
4 crazy fool shot HADDOCK, and another
fool killed HALLET, but neither of them
were sane. An assassin with disordered
brain shot the great LINCOLN, but the
democratic party was not responsible for
it. Some hot-headed idiots applauded
BOOTH, the same as some hCt-headed
idiots applauded the butchery of HALLET
and HADDoCK-but the people opposed to
prohibition did not endorse the latter
murders.
Mr.. TEMPLETON occupied the same
position in the prohibition speech that a
republican heeler in the North occupies
in his political speeches. He waved the
bloody shirt We object to this on moral
grounds. He slanders too many good
men when he includes all anti-prohibi-
tionists with the murderers of HADDoCK
and HALLET. The bloody shirt in the
prohibition party is garment as much
out of style as is the bloody shirt in the
general politics of the country. The
man who uses such means to make q
point confesses his inability TO argue a
proposition on logical grounds. MR.
TEMPLEToN is not a public speaker and
he will never be a congressman. Men
who apologize for starting party will
never succeed at the polls. \ party that
needs apologists should disband. But
the prohibition party does not need any
apologies for establishing itself. The
two dominant parties are the ones
which should apologize for making a
third party necessary.

An exchange from the Dominion gives
the following statistics: "Canada has
an area of 100000 square miles and
is larger than the United States. At
the time of confederation ana for some
time after it was thought that very
large portion of the country was un-
suitable for cultivation or for settle
ment, but the opening up of the
northwest struck strong blow at
that idea and it has been further
dispelled by the results of recent in
vestigations, such as the facts made
known regarding the great Mackenzie
region. Exclusive of the area COW
cred by the great lakes, Canada has
an area of over 3,47O,0Oo square miles,
or about 40 per cent. of the area of
the whole British Empire" With
such delicious slice of the British
empire attached to the United States

The message of Mayor Moody to
the common council last night has the
true and correct ring to it, and will be
fully endorsed by every one having
the best interests of the municipality
at heart. His showing of the decrease
of Indebtedness is very compliment
ary to the financial ability of the
mayor and encouraging to property
owners. On the matter of sewerage
the message appeals to every one in
fsrested in,the health of the commu-
nifty, and no tine should be wasted by
the council in foliccxing the plans
suggested. As regards water we are
glad to note that the mayor aVi3ces
the determination to carry out the
course adopted by the council, and we
can assure him he will have the full
and hearty support of every water
consumer in The Dalles, with the pos

We are surprised to gee the delega-

the laboring poor by placing its stamp
upon dollars and half.doilars. Moth

arguments. Labor is the basis of all

OUR BOYS AND GIRLS.

Around the rising generation CEN
tiers the hopes and aspirations of all
true American citizens. The young
men and women, before mature habits
are formed, are more susceptible of
outside influences than at any other
period in life, and are very liable to
be debauched from associations OF
dwarfed intellectually from comming-
ling with persons of the lowest types
For this reason the greatest care
should be taken of our boys and girls,
because from their daily intercourse
they may develope into models of de-
pertinent and character or become
permeated with the seeds of brutality
and viciousness, fitting them only fol
the penitentiary or gallows. There is
no doubt in the mind of any reasona-
BILE man that too much care cannot be
devoted to the training of the youth
full mind, Just budding into manhood
or womanhood, for in this epoch of
existence impressions are more easily
received and more permanently re-
tanned. If parents allow their child
rem to be in attendance on police
courts every day and thus become
familiar with the lowest and most de-
basing crimes they cannot expect that
they will exemplify the nobler facul
tiles of manhood or womanhood.
Evil communications corrupt good
manners Is as true now as 1t was when
we copied it as writing lesson. This
is true in boyhood or manhood, in
girlhood or womanhood, and to make
the human character what it should
be careful training must be had and
the greatest watchfulness exercised
That this is not done is clearly evlnced
by view of the streets of an Amer
ican city any day in the year. Child
rem of very few years of age, hardly
out of their s~aadling clothes, are
found around street corners, police
stations, viewing crime in its most
revolving forms, and listening to the
language of scullions and bummers
Such influences are debasing, and if
parents have any solicitude for the
future of their boys and girls they
will forbid their visiting these places
where vice and brutality are exposed to
the common gaze, and keep them at
home where the influences of love and
peace will shape their characters prop.

mothers have a duty to perform
in this regard which cannot be
evaded, and which will rebound

The ire of the Celestial empire has

of money. American capital is in

the great empire, and if retallatory
