How the Bar=ROOm Wins.

The old parties are our friends, and for the
last thirty years they have held the reins of
government; and during all this time our busl-
ness has prospered and increased beyond our
sanguine expectations. AS long as they control
we are safe. Depose one or both of them and
we might as we'll hang our harps on the willow
tree, for our vocation will be gone. Our duty is
plain. Keep both parties in the field, divide
the spoils of office between them prevent the
hopeless defeat of either We have the power
to do this. Let us it without fear and
trembllng for one blunder, one false step may
precipitate our ruin All, but you ask: How
shall we prevent the fanatics leaving the old

Profits of Saloons.

The Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, which
is far from being enthusiast on the liquor
question, says:
According to the statement of saloon
keepers before the Supreme Court of the United
States the average daily income of saloon is
$15. There are in Cincinnati Ito Saloons
Assuming that each receives $15 day, the
aggregate is $2,6OO,OOo year. How much Of
this is profit? A gallon of beer sells at wholesale
for rs cents. The saloon keeper re ;eives for it
80 CENTS profit of 220 per cent. The profits
on whisky even greater. Surely the people
of this city must be prosperous when they can
pay such profits to ITO saloon keepers, while
they support but 101 grocers, nearly one-fourth
of whom sell liquor besides.

''In truth, ninety days hence this tariff dis

REFORMERS GET TOGETHER.
Hennepin County Prohibitionists Satisfy
The Inner rlan and Talk of the Conflict.

Nearly 200 Prohibitionists men and women,
of Hennepin county, assembled at the banquet
given by the county committee at Harmonic
hall, Minneapolis, on the evening of the 9th
ult.
After dsposing of the substantial and tooth
some meal spread by Dorsett the caterer, the
assembly was called to order by j. W. Lansing
county chairman. A rousing prohibition song
was sung by the Foss Church quartette, who
received an enthusiastic encore. Rev. J. W.
Conley, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist Church
of St. Paul, spoke of 1.-THE Ideal Pl ohibitionst
His typical reformer a broad man. The
broad man in science and in the world of affairs
is the one who seeks out great principles. The
broad man in the sphere of reform is the one
who appreciates the comprehensiveness of great
movement like this and throws himself into it
with energy. He is charitable man, not over
looking all otfenses but battling against wrong.
He is persistent man and man of faith, of
faith in his cause, in his mission and in God.
Rev. T. W. Stout put himself record in
short and pointed speech as a dyed-in-the wool,
old-fashioned, year around Prohibitionist. The
manager of BACKBONE spoke of the hopetulness
of the outlook and presented the interests of
the paper. Two hundred subscriptions were
taken After another song, Rev. Mr.. Riley, the
new pastor of the First Baptist Church, Mime
apolis, spoke. He said that some time since he
broke away from the political faith of his
fathers. He preferred free whisky joints, if it
were necessary to have them, to licensed
saloons, as with the former the blood of the
victims of the liquor traffic would not be upon
his soul. He endorsed Dr. Conleys utterances
as to the narrowness of some so-called breadth
and the breadth of some alleged narrOwness.
He was looking to see God raise up some great
man who should lead the nation to victory over
the saloon.
The program was heartily received, and the
hearts of the assembled reformers we're strength
ened for greater endeavor.
