KELLY AND rHE Fl.oHIBIr1oNlsrs
His Resigna ton as G Ibernatorlal Candt
date offered-W Win 1t be Accepted

The LEAF-CHRONICLE yesterday
published a paragraph from the Ban
ner to the effect that DIR. Kelly had
rendered his resignation as the CUB
ernatOrial candidate for the prohibit
tiOnists and would quit the canvass.
The following from yesterdays Ban
ner leaves the matter yet in doubt,
for, although DIR. Kelly has rendered
his resignation. he leaves it with the
executive committee of his party
as to whether il shall be accepted or
not, and at the present juncture
there is not much probability that it
will be accepted. The main points
of DIR. KelIy's interview, as it APP
peared in yesterdays Banner, are
given below:
In reply to the yeporter's question
concerning the accuracy of the Ban
ners statement, DIR. Kelly said:l
1.-The publication was premature as
TO any determination on my part to
quit the position Ct nominee of the
prohibition party
'In the second place, the report
was right as to the fact that there has
been q correspondence between
Bishop Keener and myself, and also
between myself and the executive
committee of the prohibition par
ty."
1.-The committee" continued DIR.
Kelly, "now have the question I'M
der consideration, but 50 far have
expressed an unwillingness to ac-
cept my resignation.
"In case they decline to accept the
resignation, what course would you
then pursue ?" asked the reporter.
eff they should determine that
my remaining in the canvass is a
necessary factor for the success of
the Prohibition cause, / shall hold
myself bound by their determine
ton"
When asked in reference to his
pastOrate of the Gallatin church, DIR.
Kelly said at has never been,
from the first, my intention to hold
my pastorate relation with the
church, or claim the salary at the
hands of the Gallatin church after it
was fully decided that / would give
myself to the canvass OF the Prohibi-
ton party"
ut the committee should insist on
your making the canvass for Govern
or, then what step will be taken in
reference to the church ?" asked the
reporter.
I'm the event the committee insist
on my making an active canvass, the
presiding elder will supply the
church, as he has already made ar
rangements looking 10 this end"

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass off, and it is only
when a case OF lull-hedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences of
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages Of consumption, use Eilerts Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-

And what is true of their cities is be-
coming true of ours. Rum is the
prlmum mobile of the crazy socialistic
movements; it is directly responsible
-or their growth, for if it were not for
rum the class of thriftless, drunken,
dissatisfied, poverty-stricken people who
become enamored of them would have
no existence. They would be decent,
Woodworking men.
In proportion as rum-drinking in
creases poverty spreads. And it is not
honest but unfortunate poverty; it is a
absolute, lazy poverty, that viciously
proposes to steal the savings of ener-
getic, handwriting men in order to get
money to spend for more rum without
having to labor for it. There have
arisen within the past few years num-
Der of would-be prophets, with moon
SHINE theories for abolishing poverty
and making every body happy. Their
theories are unavoidable because the
drunken masses, who are rapidly becom-
ing menace to property and govern
ment, are not material for an ideal COM
munity.
But there is one thing that can be
done to abolish poverty, that is perfect
~ feasible, and which is the shortest
practical route to that desirable end; ii
Is to abolish rum, the cause of poverty.

BOOKS AND READING.
Compilation of the Sayings of Men
Famous in Literature.

Famous in Literature.
A great book that comes from a great
thinker-it is ship of thought, deep
freighted with truth, with beauty, too.
1t sails the ocean, driven by the winds
of heaven, breaking the level sea of life
into beauty where it goes, leaving be-
hind it a train of sparkling loneliness,
widening as the ship goes on. And what
a treasure it brings to every land, scat
tering the seeds of truth, justice, love
and piety, to bless the world in ages yet
to come!-Theodore Parker.
Read not to contradict and confute,
nor 20 believe and take for granted, nor
to find talk and discourse, but to weigh
and consider. Some books are to be
tasted, others to be swallowed, and some
few to be chewed and digested; that is,
some books are to be read only in parts;
others to be read, but not curiously; and
some few to be read wholly and with
diligence and attention.-Lord Bacon.
Every book that we take up without a
purpose is an opportunity lost of taking
up book with a purpose; every bit Of
stray information which we cram into
our heads without any sense of its i'm
portance is for the most part bit of the
most useful information driven out Of
our heads and choked off from our
minds.-Frederick Harrison.
To-day it is reading that furnishes
both news and knowledge to the people
at large, and that moulds their opinions
and determines their actions. Converse
ton is meager appendix to the use OF
books, periodicals, or newspapers, and
is seldom much besides retailing of
what they have furnished.-A. Curtis
Amy.
If book come from the heart, it will
contrive to reach other hearts; all art
and author-craft are of small account to
that.-Thomas Carlyle.
A good book is the precious life-blood
of master-spirit, embalmed and treas
ured up on purpose to life beyond life.
John Milton.

BREVITIES.

THE Dublin Freeman's Journal says
Archbishop Walsh has organized plan
Of Temperance reform, with the concur
renee of his clerical brethren, by which
he hopes at once to secure a free and
sober Ireland.
A MILWAUKEE educator says that in
the districts of that city where saloons
are most numerous teachers complain
that many of the scholars are so stupid
from drinking beer that work on them is
almost useless.
THE Bishop of Newcastle says that he
is persuaded that in all atmospheres, in
all work, in all relations of society, a
man or woman is better without alcohol
than with it. His lordship has been an
abstainer for fifteen years.
OF the fourteen hundred and ninety
seven persons confined in the Hartford
jail during the year 1883, only seven
were temperate persons. Thirteen hun.

moderation and one hundred and twenty
