TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION.

TEMPERANCE LEG'SlAIluN.
The position of the Republican party |
in Ohio, in regard to the temperance
question is thoroughly insincere and
dishonest. 1t proceeds upon the Nc
Kinley theory that "the people are
easy" and it thus tries to catch both
the temperance and the liquor vote.
IL the truth must be told, it has had in
this line tolcrable success. 1t begins
by putting tax upon the saloon-a
tax not imposed upon any other kind
of business IS such, and this in the face
of State Constitution which requires
entire uniformity of taxation, and
which in so many words forbids any
license of the liquor traffic. BY jug
glery of words, pitiful in the annals OF
Jurisprudence n court is found to say
that protection is no longer the
correlative of taxation; that n business
may be made to pay money and yet
be an outlawed traffic; that we may
take the saloon-keeper's money and
give him nothing in return; that the
public may collect his taxes and yield
no immunity to his bar, and that at any
rate the transaction ''is not license"
But the saloon-keepers are logical
sort Of folk; they think, In contempt
somewhnt-of the courts, that to take
their money and give no value for it
In the way OF protection to their bus.
mess, is plain coniiscation, robbery and
nothing else and that public OPINION
more honest than the pollticians-will
not tolerate so III a thing, and that safe
ty lies In paying the tax.
SO they pay It and are contcntcd.
The taxpayer the road to whose po-
iltical conscience lies through his pock-
ct book, sees In the situation tighten
ing of his own burdens, and he too Is
satisfied.
The office holder and ward. heelcr
Hnd In the revenue thus raised an ad.
dcd source of gain and more public
money to spend, and they, consequent.
ly, are not saying word.
The men OF temperance principles
WHO believe that the saloon Is II
standing menace to the welfare OF the
people aud the safety Of the com
munity, and who wish to see its traffic
put down by law, or at least kept
within due bounds, are consolcd wher
the politician points out to them that
while we have roundly taxed the sa
ioonkecpcr, we have Just as many and
just as severe laws against both him
and his business ms ever there were
that a Republican Supreme Court has
said that we may take his money anc
outlaw his bar at the same time, thai
the real purpose and effect of the party
legislation along temperance lines ii
TO starye out the small holes In the
wall and disroputable gn.mllls, nnC
that the liquor men are thus being
made to pay for the hard luck of theil
fellow traffckcrs.
Thus, everybody being satisfied, good
Republicans are left TO vote the ticke
without any prickings OF conscience
and the party organization, at one anC
the same moment poses as the eY
ponent OF the temperance morality O.
Ohio and reaches out for the practica
absorption OF the saloon vote.
We submit that the foregoing is
fair and not exaggerated statement o
the purpose and policy of the Repuh
iican party, upon the temperance ques
tiop, as now pursued In Ohio. AS /

Richard Maxwell as soon as he was
with his son, but without expressing
the least sign of anger.

day or two at least, with the under
standing that if at any time l desire
you to return you will do so without
demur."
Certainly, sir"
That was all there was of it, and
Craig Thompson, when he heard what
had taken place (for Lisle did not re
gard it out of place to repeat the con-
versation to HIM, was delighted.
"Lisle," he said, you've got more
force and sand behind that pretty girl

'Tain't sense, is it? If yon know
enough to know that we're all born of
women, and l suppose you do, you
know that woman was your mother,
and there's one little fact you want to
tie to all your life, because if you don't
there won't be anything else that is
worth trying -. It's this: Your mother
was a good woman if every other wO-
man ever born into the world was bad,
and so was my mother and the mother
of every one of that wild set of fellows
thatll soon be raising hades around
here. A woman may be bad before
she's q mother, and she may be bad
exceptions TO the rule that every one of
'Gm is good when she's a mother, so,
you see, Isle, didn't cast any rehec-
lions on your father when | said that.

so that Lisle had very little chance to

might have embarrassed his theories

mind of the youth, and day after day

was rarely. too, that Craig Thompson
found an opportunity to converse with
his young friend, for whom he had
conceived such a strong and unaccount-
able liking.
One day, when the work of sorting
and separating was nearly completed,
Craig rode over to MaXwelrs camp and
asked for Isle, and one of the men
having pointed him out, at some dis
lance, where he was riding slowly to-
ward the slope of the mountains, Craig
gave chase and soon came up with
him.
Say, Lisle," he said as soon as they
were side by side, do you remember
Jim Cummings"
mo; l never heard of him, was the
reply.
"Well, he thinks he has heard of you.

II don't believe that you know" said
Lisle quietly, but with such deep con-
viction that Thompson gazed at him
earnestly for a moment in silence.

voice that was perceptibly altered

so that it snorted and made two or
three buck jumps before it settled
down again into ordinary decorum.
The ranchman's face was working in
the strangest fashion, but whether
with an effort to suppress a laugh or
an oath it is impossible to say. At last,
more to himself than to the young man
at his side, the Nevadian remarked:
ANY man who will give a boy that
sort of fodder to chaw on is a blamed
scOundrel."
Lisle Maxwell heard the words. He
halted his horse as suddenly as Thomp-
son had previously checked his and by
a sudden pressure Of one of his knees
compelled it to turn so that it stood di-
rectly across the path of the other ami
NAL. His right arm Strengthened out,
and Thompson found himself looking
into the barrel of "A"
Take that back, Craig Thompson"
said Lisle in low tone, but there was
an intense meaning behind the words.
The ranchman had never been nearer
death than at that instant, and he
knew it. But he only smiled, and
there was something in the altered eX-
preston of his face which Nevadians
were not accustomed to see there. All
the hard lines had disappeared. All
the harshness was gone, and his eyes,
which ordinarily gave back a steely
glitter for every gaze which they en-
cOuntered, softened into a translucent
sparkle while he said slowly:
