The Iowa Campaign.

DES MONIES, a., Nov. THE Mitch
ell men Republican bolters) and
straight PrOhibitionists are working
we'll in harmony, and the friendly feel
ing between them is increasing.
Ehe vote for Mitchell will run from
10000 to 10000. The Populists will poll
probably 10000 votes. The legislature
will contain large number of Repub-
licans who have rejected the rotten
thirteenth plank of the platform and
have been endorsed by the Prohibi-
tionists There will also be number
of Populist members whose platform
pledges them to retain the present law
until government control with profits
eliminated is practicable. If legisla-
ture favorable to the liquor interests
is chosen they will have their way, as
either Boies or jackson will sign a
repeal bill.
The Republicans have made u hot
campaign, whooping up one half the
thirteenth plank in the interior coun-
ties and the other half in the river
counties, but mainly distracting atten-
ton by talking tariff, calamity and the
bloody shirt.
The Democrats have left Gov. Boies
to fight the campaign out almost alone.
thus giving color to the assertion that
the corporation and whisky ring which
has both old parties by the throat has
decided that jackson is the best man
for their purpose.
The Populists have made the best
campaign they ever did, and will double
their vote. They have had large
number of outside speakers, and have
in consequence of the state of con-
gressional affairs talked mainly about
silver. The Democrats have lost heav-
lily to them. In many places they are
taking vigorous part in legislative
contests.

The crank crop is increasing. If
Pendergast had been promptly swung
up to lamp post instead of being Ii
onized by sympathisers, the crank crop
would have been diminished Clarion
Ledger.
When mob violence, no less than
murder, is one of the crying evils of
the times, it is amazing as we'll as rep
rehensible, that journal of the Clar-
ion-Ledger's pretensions to respecta-
bility and influence, should be found
willing to give expression to such SEN
timents as the above. The cranks ought
to be suppressed, beyond doubt, and
so ought the editors and newspapers
which advocate mob violence, if this
country is to be long worth living in.

Send stamp for circular.

There is no inherent right in
citizen to sell Intoxicating liquors
by retail; it is not a privilege of
a citizen of a State or of citizen
of the United States. As it is a
business attended with danger to
the community, it may, as already
said, be entirely prohibited or be
permitted under such conditions
as will limit to the utmost its
evils. -California VS.. Christensen.
No Legislature can bargain
away the public health or public
morals. The people themselves
cannot do it, much less their ser
wants. Government is organized
with view to their preservation,
and cannot divest itself of the
power to provide for them. -
Stone VS.. Mississippi.
For we cannot shut out of view
the fact, within the knowledge of
all, that the public health, the
public morals and the public safe
ty may be endangered by the gen
eral use of Intoxicating drinks;
nor the fact, established by sta
tistics accessible to every one.
that the disorder, pauperism, and
crime prevalent in the country
are, in some degree at least, trace
able TO this evil.-Mugler VS..
Kansas.
The injury, it is true, falls up
on him in his health, which the
habit undermines: in his morals
which ii weakens: in his self
abasement which it creates. But
as it leads to neglect of business
and waste of property and gen
eral Generalization, it affects
those who are Immediately con-
nected with and dependent upon
him. By the general concur
renee of opinion of every civil
lied and Christian community
there are few sources of crime
and misery to society equal to the
dramshop. California VS.. Christ

Special to The Mississippi Leader.
CARRoLLroN, Nov. 6-The election in
Carroll county on Oct. 31st resulted in
a dry majority of 22322. Every box in
the county gave Prohibition MAORI
ty, even where the saloon men counted
on carrying every thing wet. Our peo-
pie did noble work for the cause of
right and home. The saloon advo-
Gates are at last convinced. and say
the whisky question is settled in Car
roll for all time, this being the third
election that has gone against them.
Every thing passed off very quietly.
