In Partnership.

IL has been charged that the state adrniniatra
ton is In partnership with the liquor traffic and
that everything II could do TO increase or maintain
the present number Of saloons would be done in
the interest of state revenue. Some of the very
excellent temperance people who comprise a re-
spectacle element OF the Republican party have
denied this a league of the G. o. p. and the ga
looms seemed to them to be too atrocious be con-
sidered for moment. But the proof is at hand.
The extra session passed law which had for its
object the wedding out of the cheaper and more

number OF licenses in the interest of morality or

the bill and assigned a a reason the fact that IL
would reduce the number of liquor lic.nses and
thereby reduce the states revenues. Therefore

accept the Journal as the person.

of the high saloon license Dawson

One of the reasons why The
ARGUS thinks the Republicans
should nominate Thomas B. Jack
son is his refusal to allow the ring
to dictate who should run for sher-
i'll this year. As THE ARGUS is the
unrelenting foe Of ring rule in pol
itics it has a kindly feeling and a
high regard for a candidate who
has the manhood to defy the ring
and appeal to the people for their
Endorsement for the Office which
he seeks. If all signs don't TAIL
this is the year in which the peo-
pie are going TO nominate.

Congress is still standing pat. Even
