 the canteens was enacted, so that most of the reports would not show the effect of the new law upon them.
 But this is not to the point. The in
 spector general is speaking only of official. written reports. From the verbal reports obtained in interviews with officers it is easy to see fhat their formal reports would be. One point is specially worth notice in the testi- nlony of Major Sharpe and Colonel Sanger. It is that the abolition of the sale of beer and light wines practically amounts to the closing of the post ex- change altogether, and this involves loss of the social life which the sol
 dier found there under the example and restrait imposed by his officers. We doubt very much whether General Miles is as competent to judge of the new law as the officers under whose

Our dispatches this morning carry the cheerful news that the American people

Our dispatches this morning carry the cheerful news that the American people
 have in no wise re- THE ceded from the position RESULT. they have taken at the
 polls in recent years. The republican party still has the con fidence of the nation as the party best fitted to manage the affairs of the country.
 In New York state. in Ohio, in Con nccticut, in Iowa. in Massachusetts and New Jersey.-aIl states in which off year conditions might have been ex- pected to contribute to large demo- cratic gains,-it is shown that the re- publican party is as strong as ever. Comparisons being made with the last off-year elections, the gains in some instances are surprising.
 The magnificent victory of Seth Low and the ticket championed by the fu- sion forces in Greater New York. is victory full of inspiration for every lover of American institutions, be he republican or democrat. It is one of the best illustrations in our history that the American people when aroused are patriotic to the core.

The prohibitionists of Arizona-they form considerable number-will learn
 with dismay that the A champion prohibition PROHIBITION ist of Kansas. Albert BACKSLIDER. Griffin. has renounced
 the faith. For more than twenty years Mr. Griffin has been a zealous expounder of the doc Urine that the proper method of deal ing with intemperance is to abolish by- law the liquor traffic. He has at last reached the conclusion that prohibi- ton is not the best means of promo-- Ing temperance. He has written d pamphlet on the subject which takes a strong ground in opposition to the views which he has advocated since 1880. He states that the temperance cause Is losing ground where prohtbi ton prevails. and explains it in these words:
 Years ago. finding that the temper ance cause was losing ground every where. I began diligent search for he reason, and found it in the fact that the general cessation of personal ccTn- mitments against She drink habit ana the substitution of the plan Of com polling people to cease drinking trans forms most drinkers from not unfriend- ly neutrals into active. and. in many cases. bitter enemies of every kind of temperance work. In consequence. the number Of tipplers has steadily in creased; that Of total abstainers has 
 has waned. In short, we have disin- tegrated our own army. and needIess- F. driven into the opposite ranks host of nertrals that might have been drawn into our own.
 While many prohibit:onists admit that more moral suasson work is needed they usually insist that prohibition must be kept in the foreground as the ultimate aim; and. in practice, from nine -tenths to ten-ninths of their efforts are expended on purely political lines. Worse than this. they persist catly inject their pagan method into the purely personal work others try 10 do.
 Therefore, as might be expected, it is no longer possible to persuade the drinking element to attend such mis- called temperance meetings. On the contrary, it keeps others away. and counteracts the influence of temperance workers by every possible means. It is useless for prohibitionists to insist that prohibition ought not to have this cTect-nor even to assert that it does not-for the fact will remain that this is the way it actually operates

Those few citizens who oppose the proposition that the city purchase a block in the northeastern portion of she city for park, are exceedingly shortsighted. Instead of being a det- -irnent to adjacent property, as hey seem to suppose. a park would be a positive benefit in the matter of in- creasing values. Somehow. it seems, the impression prevails with these op- ponents of the project that the pro posed park will be converted into a beer garden How such an absurd idea could find acceptance it is difficult to imagine. In any event, 1t is he duty of the council to consider the in terests of the whole city in matter of this importance, rather than the prejudices of 9 few misguided citizens. however earnest and honest. Now is the time to lay the foundations of 6 great city Now, when property is cheap. is the time to form the com plete programme as to parks. It ought to be unnecessary to urge upon any body that nothing so quickly attracts visitors and comments city to inves- tors as do beautiful homes and parks.

The little daughter of MT. J. N. Powell jumped on an inverted rake made of ten penny nails and thrust one nail entirely through her foot and a second one half way through. Cham berlain's Pain Balm was promptly ap- piled and five minutes later the pain had disappeared and no more suffer- ing was experienced. In three days the child was wearing her shoe as usual and with absolutely no discomfort. MT. Powell is well-known merchant of Forkland. Va Pain Balm is an anti septic and heals such injuries without maturation and in one-third the time required by the usual treatment. For sale by Elvey &5 Hulett

It is very suggestive that General Miles broad indorsement of the anti canteen law. unaccompsnied by any comment upon the testimony of army Ircn in/ regard thereto, should have been followed the next day by specific evidence of the benefits of the canteen md the injury that has resulted from its abolition. This is contained in the report of Inspector General Brecken- ridge. which recites the testimony of Colonel Burton in Cuba, Lieutenant Colonel Read in Dakota, Major Sharpe in Colorado and Colonel Sanger in the Philippines. Each of these officers. whose duty it was to be thoroughly in- formed as 10 the effects of the can teen, contradicts the declaration of General Miles.
