Col. Breckenridge is for Mills
and Mills is for Whisky.

1t was the only exception to the
rule, that in the famous Texas
Prohibition campaign, the Demo-
Gratis We're for Prohibition and the
niggers not the negroes; that's an
other race-and the Republicans
were against it.
Jeff Davis and Roger @. Mills,
however, distinguished themselves
by differing with their Demo-
cratic brethren in Texas, and the
two We're given the credit, both
by the rumites and the PrOhibi-
tionists, of having defeated Pro-
hibition in Texas.
Mrs. Mills is therefore very
dear to the heart of our "Silver-
tongue" and 'Silvertongue" wants
Bro. Mills to get the speakership

81 am a sincere bi-metalist, and as
the friend of the party of the two
metals, am anxious to avoid division
in the Democratic party"
To man who has lived by
Billy Breckenridge, aud has seen
him start with a fine fortune, and
in few years be unable to pay
his debts, and remain chemically
so, there is severe irony in the
fact that he was taken from a
condition of hopeless impecuni-
osity and put on the Finance
Committee In Congress. While
he was there and when he and |
were as thick as any other thieves,
| used to send him my paper; but
with no more thought OF ever get
ting a nickel for it than if l were
sending to the veriest dead beat
in the United States; aud ofconrse,
| never got cent for it, and
never expect to.
That part is all right my
chances are about one out of
forty. | took that, and lost my
money, and on that score | have
no right to kick, and don't do so.
But when a man who would not
have silver, gold, nickel or copper
in his pockets, if his debts were
paid, gets to spouting about his
being a "bi-metatiist," it makes
me tired; and when he walks
right out of the Christian church

The system has spread ruin and desc

may be learned from the fact that the
temperance reformers have recently
secured the closing of over ten thousand
liquor shops in Madras aloDe.-Chlcag.

10 PREVENT ALCOHOLISM,


Poor Food and Overwork as Incentives to
Drink.
The prevention of alcoholism is a
physiological life. The cure of alco-
holism is return to a physiological
life. The ways by which either the
prevention or cure of alcoholism are to
be affirmed are as multiform as the in
dividuals involved and the varieties Of
human existence. At another time we
have called attention to the part that
good food, well cooked, so as to be
easily digested, plays in the prevention
or cure of this disorder. We know of
no such potent means for preventing
alcoholism as the presence upon every
table, at every meal, of such food.
Labors toward this end should be en-
couraged by all who desire to see alco-
holism wiped out of the community.
Another means of preventing alcohol
ism is the avoidance of exhaustion.
The overworhed literary, scientific or
business individual must get rid of
