municipal saloon project, which has
been the foremost topic Of CONVERSE.
ton here since last council meeting,
was brought UP before the council
Monday evening, but vas postponed
until next Monday. A majority report
in favor of the proposed plan was sub.
mitted signed by three of the four
aldermen on the committee. The re.
port after declaring that it Is q notori.
Gus fact that prohibition is n failure as
a solution of the problem in Sioux
Falls, and the further fact that q ma
jority OF the people Of the state have
declared against the license system
asks whether some plan cannot be
adopted that would be a compromise
between the two and acceptable TO
those who oppose the restricted saloon.
and to those who are against such
stringent sumptuary legislation rs
the present prohibitory law. The
report further recommends that
the plan be tried in the city for thirty
days, and if it fails that will be an
end to it,
The solution in substance. is that
five municipal saloons be established,
one for each 1900 people. They will
be put under such restrictions rs will
protect the city from bad faith or dis
honesty in the management of the
business, and also to completely re-
move the evils that usually surround
the liquor traffic.
Mr.. War, the dissenting member
OF the committee, submitted n minor
ity report. Although admitting that
the p~rohibitory law was n failure he
was opposed to the plan and insisted

A LIQUOR Papers View.

The truth in the controversy
which of the two great political
parties is the better liquor party,
is to be found ON a neutral middle
ground. The opposition to the IL
auor traffic and the tendency to
restrict the traffic as much as pos
sible are as clearly defined in GER
tain sections of the Democratic
party as in certain sections of the
Republican party. There are
fanatics and iberal-minded men
in both political parties. 1t must
be admitted, however, that the
new attitude ON the liquor ques-
ton taken by the Republicans of
this State in their Rochester plat
form-which is a departure from
their former policy-offers moro
equitable and practical solution Of
the liquor problem than anything
the Democratic party has ever at
tempted in this State. Wine and

COL. Balm TALKS.
He Predicts That the Prob ibi.
ton Vote Will Show
Good Increase.

CFrom the National Prohibition Press BureauJ
A representative of the National
Prohibition Press Bureau met
Col. Balm the other day and had
quite long talk with him about
the Prohibition campaign. In
the course of the conversation the
Colonel said:
81 have been in Pennsylvania
and Ohio the past two weeks and
will be in Ohio, New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut during the
remainder Of the campaign. While
old parties seem to lack enthusiasm
and flaming posters with bands
Of music fail to stir the people, our
meetinge are large and enthusias-
tic. Wherever | go | am told Of
men breaking from the old parties
and joining our ranks. In McKees-
port A. X. Williamson, Prohibi-
ton candidate for Congress, is
making converts by scores. Old
party lines are growing weak
everywhere, and but for the whips
used by those who expect the
loaves and fishes of Office there
would be general Generalization
along the party lines.
"Is the tariff going to monopolize
the attention of the people in thi s
campaign"
81 find the people are losing in
terest in tariff talks, and though
the line OF debate is more distinctly
drawn between the two old parties
in this campaign than in the last,
there is less disposition to hear the
subject discussed. The subject is
not one of general intelligence,
and a majority of those who dis
cuss it create confusion instead of
conviction in the minds of hearers.
There is no question about the ir-
revocable day being near at hand,
when tariff and other questions
used to obscure the greatest ques-
ton of this age will stand aside
for the solution of the liquor ques-
ton"
"What do you think of the gen.
eral outlook for the Prohibition
voter
Il believe our vote will increase,
and when the general break comes
we will be amazed at the vigor of
the movement, and the force of
the long pent-up power. A lead
ing Democrat of my own State
said to me as he looked at a picture
of Bidwell: Sir, if business men
were not towards that man would
be President. We know the sal
oon is the great enemy of business,
both in taking money that ought
to go into our tills and in
effect upon our employees, but we
are afraid to declare against the
great boycotting monopoly. Yet
when the break comes it will be
like Noah's flood, for we all know
it is the enemy of every interest in
this country. / never had more
faith in the triumph of Prohibition
than | have to-day"
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1892-11-03
History Repeated.

Accordingly the most violent
conflicts was had, and the most
outrageous mobs we encountered,
were led on or instigated by per-
sons protesting to be religious.
= OF the 10000 ministers
of all denominations in the United
States | believe not one in a hun
dred ever raised his voice against
the enslavement of millions of our
countrymen nor lifted finger to
protect one who had escaped from
bondage. 1t must be left for the
future historian of our republic in
the nineteenth century to tell to
posterity how fearfully the Ameri-
can Church and ninety-nine hun
dredths of the ministers were sub
iugated to the will and behest of
our slavc-holting oligarchy.
1t cannot be denied that the most
formidable opposition we had to
contend against was that which
was made by the ministers and
churches and ecclesiastical authori-
ties. When the future history of
the anti-s!avsry conflict shall be
fully written and the sayings and
doings of pcoacLers, theological
professors. editors of religious per-
iodicals, and OF presbyteries, asso-
eia6ons, conferences, and general
assemblies. shall be spread before
the people IN the light of our en-
larged liberty. no one will fail to
see that practically the worst enc
mics of truth, righteousness and
humanity were those who pro-
fessed to be friends and followers
of Christi Had they been gener-
ally faithful and fearless in behalf
of the oppressed, no other oppo-
nents would have dared to oppose
the just demand for their mmedi-
ate emancipation. -SamuelJ. May

Slavery Conflict. "

The Prohibition Party's Influence

1t is due to the Prohibition party
to say that the fear of its growing
influence acting upon the regular
parties was the cause OF High Lii
cense laws by several States. 1t
can scarcely be questioned that
the passage of the admirable High
License law of Pennsylvania was
secured, not directly by the Prohi-
bitionists, who opposed it, but in
directly by them. The Republi can
leaders feared that if the liquor
traffic were not restricted and reg
ulated the Prohibition party would
receive the support of formidable
numbers of those whose views
upon the question were more mod
crate, and who would be satisfied
with the High License provisions.
To prevent that they consented to

Run-Sellers in Politics.

Men may be free drinkers, and
even hard drinkers, may frequent
saloons, may haunt bars, may
even be periodically or habitually
intoxicated, without yielding up
their manhood to the extent OF
being content that the laws shall
be made for them by the dealers
in rum. Indeed, it strikes most
men as humiliation that in poll.
tics, especially in the cities, the
liquor dealer is considered an inn
portant factor, and the liquor
dealers association receive more
attention and courtesy and favor
than any other class or element in
the community. The tendency in
this has been to place rum-seflers
in innumerable positions of public
trust, which have generally been
most unworthy and viciously tilleo
by them. When their domination
reaches the extreme point of con.
trolling the State Legislature, the
Governor being already their alb.
ject slave, the revolt of public
opinion is a force which even hide
bound politicians at Albany can
feel and understand.-New Yorl
