The 'sSubsidized Press"

Bribery and fraud are the hardest
charges in the world to establish
beyond dispute; but at the same
time they are crimes against society
that the people are sure to detect
and condemn if they cannot punish
outright. For a good while the
intuition of the honest masses has
convinced them that corrupting
means were being brought to bear
to further the aims of the lottery
company, and their convictions are
strengthened every little while by
developments that leave very small
room for doubt on the subject.
The latest exposure in this line
comes from Sabine parish, and
shows that the lottery claims to
nOac control the press of the State,
for which it has expended large
amount of money" 1t also con-
firms the proposition first advanced
by Mr.. Marshall, that the lottery
also intends to control, if possible
with liberal use of money, the ward
and parish organizations through
ont the State
1t seems that one j. E. Howe, a
printer working on the Sabine
Banner, an anti paper, wrote to
John A. Morris, asking him for a
''loan" of $500 to establish a lottery
paper. This request was declined
in a carefully worded letter. Howe
then wrote letter No. 2, proposing
that John A. buy out the Sabine
Banner, and let him run it in the |
interest of the lottery, thus getting
rid of disagreeable anti paper,
and at the same time establishing a |
power in aid of the lottery.
The three communications above
designated were seized upon and
published with great gusto by the
lottery papers, some of whom went
30 far as to charge that the editors
of the Banner were behind Howe
in his dickering with the lottery.
This put the editors on their mettle,

ALLEGHENY TO THE FRONT.

Our twin sister looms up with checker
club of no mean proportions. Thirty play
ers have enrolled themselves as members of
the new club, and among those we have
some very prominent players-Mr. Smith,
one OF the city Councilmen, William Harri-
son, Jesse Johnstone and son, Mr.. Wise
man and others. They have rented hall
in the rear of Gumbert's shoe store, 230 Fed
eral street. This evening will be devoted to
the election of officers and the formation of
bylaws to govern the new club. The men,
bership fee is 81, with the additional month
ly dues, the amount not yet determined
upon. We wish the new club every success
and also trust it may be the birthplace of
many good players, and we hope that the
projectors may give their early attention to
the training of the members with a view of
team matches; and we hope they may soon
issue challenge to Pittsburg to test the
strength of the two cities.
To the Checker Editor of The Dispatch:
wish to state through your department
that during my stay of three years in Chi
cago was in the most intimate and friendly
terms with all the members of the Chess
and Checker Club; never had q disagree
ment or harsh word with any of the mem
bers, but one exception. 1 have always
testified to this fact in every place 1 have
been, and my praise of the members, both
as PLAYERS and gentlemen, has never been
questioned. JAMES P. REED.
PIrTsBURG, December II.
1.-THE above letter has been forced from Mr..
Reed because of what was published in THE
DISPATCH few weeks ago. What we pub
lished was not got through the medium of
Mr.. Reed. We never heard Mr.. Reed speak
of Chicago or its people other than he states
in his letter above, but we have not pub
lished anything but what is the general feel
ing Of the players in this community The
article in the american Checker ReufeD vol
iii, No. II. seems to us a nice way of parting
in friendship. As men, our whole nature
rises up against such fnsinuations as that
article speaks of. We have had little in
sympathy with Chicago since the Willie.
Dunlap and Reed muddle, and as far as we
are concerned we still feel that though we
cannot sympathize much with Reed in his
late connection with the Wyllie forfeit, vet
we believe that though he shoulders ali re-
sponsibility he has only been the scapegoat |
for another's greed, and being in that others |
power he has, like others, to do as he is told, |

GLEANINGS FROM CHURCH FIELDS

Oberlin is nothing if not radical. In the
ante-bellum times preachers and teachers of
that celebrated Ohio town were conspicuous
for their onslaughts on slavery. Since the
slavery question has been decided, Oberlin
ceases not to war against the sins and follies
of the times The occupant of the Oberlin
Congregational pulpit, Rev. ]. Brand, a
pulpit once occupied by President Finney,
in paper presented to the International
Council, held in London last summer, had
this TO say of preachers devils.
''Most of us are possessed of about four
devils. First there is deaf devil, who pre-
vents us from hearing the crv of Gods poor.
That must be cast out so that we may hear
lhe voice, not simply of mems desires and
ambitions, but the voiceless cry of their
which keeps us silent and acquiescent when
selfish culture and cut-throat competition
need manly rebuke. That must be cast
out that our tongue may be unloosed TO
vindicate God. Third, there is the devil of
self-seeking. He must be east out.
We must stop the sin of working
for our own glory. We must rediscover the
lost art of self-denial. We must illustrate
the spirit of the crucifxion. Lastly there
is the rationalistic devil of unbelief: who
denies the gift Of the Holy Ghost. He
must be cast out, that we NAV believe in
that fundamental part of the gospel-the
gift of power. These demons. like the one
Of old, go not out save with fasting and

SUNDAY SHAVING QUESTION.

Helena Not the Only City in Which it is
Being Ag;tated.
Duke Dutriuei!le, the old-time barber on
the corner of Jackson and Grand streets,
talking yesterday about the Sunday closing
question said that bigger cities than Helena
were agitating the matter of closing the
barber shops one day In the week. In
Philadelphia, he said, the Barbers' Sunday
Closing association has decided on an az
gresslve campaign against Sunday shaving.
Their executive committee has engaged the
services OF six detectives who will report to
It the names of the proprietors and the To-
cation of all shops open and doing business
on Sunday. The association has decided to
prosecute all against whom it's detectives
succeed in securing evidence. The COM
mlttee has already begun the prosecution of
fifteen Sunday shavers and propose inau-
Rurating a rigorous campaign against all
who persist In keeping open i'll defiance of
the law.
The Philadelphia association numbers
s.9l members in good standing, with a large
contributing membership among the EN-.
lloyers who do not wish to join outright.
but are in sympathy with the movement.
The Philadelphia Sabbath association
has, it is said. joined hands with the Bar.
bers' Sunday Closing ASSOCIATION in its bat.
tie, having contributed to it's fund for The
prosecution of violators of the Sunday law
and offered its aid in trying to secure con,

Not at all Uncertain as to the Future of
Castle.
Mr.. James King, the well-known heavy
mining operator, who has resided in and
about Helena for thirty years, and is the
owner of the great placer mine in Confede-
rate gulch, which is deemed the largest and
richest of any in the United States, arrived
from Castle a few days ago, where he has
acquired large interests. He has Just start
ed for New York. Before his departure, in
respons to a question as to what he thought
of Castle, he said: Il believe that in Justice
to that coming great camp / ought to answer
as we'll as | know. A district with two
railroads that will soon commence to build
toward it must have a great future,
! doubt if another camp in Montana will
surpass it in the large amount of desirable
ores it commands. At present everything
there is very lively. You can scarcely com-
mand a house. The hotel is inadequate to
accommodate the people arriving. The
three lines of coaches that run from the
railroad are all arriving crowded. Mum
bers of worklngmen are coming looking
after work. The season, on account of the
snow, has not yet fairly begun. 1t Is diff
Guilty for these men to procure work. I
would say to such persons wait awhile and
you will find all the employment you
want"
