OUTWlTTlNG AN EDITOR.
AN Exciting Political Scheme In Which
McCullagh Figured.


When David r. Francis was candi-
date for governor of Missouri, his
friends succeeded III using The Globe
Democrat to further his chances of elcc-
ton Editor McCullagh had turned on
Our Dave, as Mr.. Francis is known
i'll st. Louis, with his short paragraphs
with telling effect, and Francis friends
got together and concocted Il scheme to
offset the editorial work of the paper.
They wrote out Il display advertisements,
and at late hour of the Saturday
morning Immediately preceding the
election of 1888 took it to the counting
room of The Globe Dcmocrat. The clerl,
on duty gave the copy Il casual looking
over and without Il word accepted it.
1t occupied full page, and at length
and i'll glowing terms set forth the
great business capacity and eminent
qualifications of Mr. Francis to occupy
the gubeinatorial chair of Missouri. -
That advertisement caused the big
Eost row ever witnessed III IL newspaper
office i'll ST. Louis. When Editor Nc
CullaSh found what had been done, lie
ragged and StOrmcd for II week The fast
mail had distributed the paper Ill over
Missouri before McCullagh had his at
tention called to it, He left his quarters
ut the Southern hotel on a trot. Reach
ing the corner of Fourth and Pine
streets, he found the streets and the
Office of The Globe Democrat TANNED
with people, who were clamoring to
stop their subscriptions. McCullagh had
filled column on the editorial page
with 'squibs'' strongly opposing Fran
els and advocating the Republican nom
incc, but the big display of Francis
friends was the first thing scon on open
ing the paper.
Mr.. McCullagh at once issued IN cx-
ira, i'll which he deprecated tho over
sight by which the advertisement had
found its way into the paper, but it
was some time before The Globe Dem
ccrat Office recovered its equilibrium.

addressed by Mr.. Anthony Comstock and
DIR. Wilbur F. Crafts, Of Washington, D.
c. Mr.. Constock said: wherever there
is race-track gambling there is corruption
among public officials. 1t is dangerous
thing to condense the large sums of money
that every race-day reaches the hands
of professional gamblers upon race
tracks into hands of INSCRIPTIONS men.
Money they acquire is used lavishly to
secure immunity from punishment and
protection for their crimes. Another
argument against race-track gambling is
that professional gamblers from other
States, non-residents of the State where
racing takes place, go from race track to
race track, tempting young men and
others to dishonesty, collecting large
sums of money by their unlawful bus
mess, and taking that money outside of
the State to be spent in many cases in
backing faro banks and other games.
The professional gambler is skilled in
tricks and devices. He has no compute
ton of conscience about lying or cheat
ing. His whole object in life is to obtain
other peoples money without making
any return OF value therefor. The ex-
perience of these kinds of offenders in
New York and New Jersey has shown
that they are utterly inscriptions, heart
less, selfish and grasping They will take
a mans last dollar, and when the victim
appeals for enough change to take him
home, turn upon him with curses and
laugh him to scorn. In recent cases in
New York where certain pool gamblers
had been arrested whose cases came up
before magistrate. upon examination
their counsel asked for an adjournment
on the ground that these men were book
makers and were in Maryland in
business
Mr.. Comstock said further that in his
Judgment the only way to stop this bus
mess is to enact stringent laws with a
fixed penalty of not less than one year S
imprisonment. He said he did not be
lieve that fine should be mentioned in
the law as penalty.

A New Church.

1t is on the taps to establish new
church or denomination. Steps are being
taken to change the Prohibition party
into religious denomination, the corner
stone of which shall be prohibition. John
G. Woolley appears to be the leader or
apostle of this movement. His discourses
are epigramnatic and fervid to an intense
degree. The new Prohibition party that
appears 10 have sprung out of the wreck
of the old organization, and which polled
at the Presidential election 10000
votes for lowering, is evidently plan
ming to become a new religious de-
nomination or separate church. Woolley
promulgates his new gospel of politics
through the New York Voice Of March
4th under the caption of the Money
Question" but the money question" is
barely mentioned in his epigrammatic
appeal What slight mention Mr.. Wool
ley makes shows very plainly his pro-
found ignorance of that question as the
following paragraph demonstrates
Il am personally in favor of the single
gold standard ard improved national
banks, and of direct legislation and of
Woman Suffrage, and protection in the
just and honest meaning of the word, and
the strict control of common carriers and
what are called national monopolies, and
| if so long a step be necessary i'll order to
control these things and prevent or dis
solve trusts and hurtful monopolies 1 am
i'll favor of government ownership In
deed, l am not sure but what trusts de-
partment-s stores and monopoles are not
natural processes in trade t0oOard gov
ornamental ownership'-at the discretion
and power of the people,
Any person familiar with, or under
standing the money question knows the
"gold standard is by far the greatest
national monopoly" of them all. He
even steps over the line to the socialists
and would include trusts, department
stores and lnonopolies as proper subjects
of government control, and yet the gold
standard monopoly, the greatest monop-
oily on earth, Mr.. Woolley and his new
Prohibition church would leave i'll con-
troll of favored few; power that abso-
lutely controls all trusts and nlonopolies
So much for Mr.. Woolley, his new Pro-
hibition church and the ''money
question"
This movement for the establishment OF
Prohibition church is being systemat-
ically agitated throughout the country.
Two meetings have been held in Rising
Sun as preliminary movements in the
cause. The movement embraces the
creation of Prohibition church treasury
and systematic agitation of this new evan
gelical political movement. To vote as
we'll as to pray is to be included in their
confession of faith or discipline, and to
vote against the manufacture, sale, im-
portation, expectation, of spirituous or
alcoholic liquors in every form. This new
movement which is led by Mr.. Woolley
means the shifting of the Prohibition
party from purely temporal political lines
to spiritual political methods.
M. Woolley's confession of political
faith as above stated by himself is a
strange mixture of good and evil, with
the mammon gold standard principle at
the head.

Confidence" was to pop up the next
day after the election and Prosperity
was to be seen close behind her. She
didn't naterialize that day, aud the day
was fair weather day, too. Then the
Hannaites said the time was almost too
soon, that they were little too previous
owing possibly to their over-anxiety, and
that she might in reason be expected, and
certainly would come with the New Year.
Well, the first of January came and the
whole month passed, still Prosperity
hadn't been seen or heard of anywhere
in the country. The next period set by
good timers was when the new Mckinley
tariff "opened the factories in place of the
minis" But having failed so often in
their predictions and promises, they are
evidently somewhat skeptical now, and
the bankers say that prosperity need not
be expected till the greenbacks and other
legal tenders are destroyed aud bonds to
their value issued.
Some OF the most cheeky among the
goldbug papers stoutly assert that the
long promised better times have started
and are steadily progressing. These fell
lows appear to think if they tell the peo-
pie this and stick to it that the simple
people will believe that they are really
happy and i'll the midst of prosperity
They have made them believe fully as
ridiculous things in the past, why not in
the future.
