The Matter With the Governor.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL. Evident
ly our governor has been unduly exposed to
that old mental disease known as Estate
rights" and 'Jeffersonism simplicity" and if
the complaint has its full run the end is not
doubtful. He admits the State is for prohibi-
ton, but says the cities want local option. Now
as all the wards in any city do not want local
option, but only the unclean quarter wants it,
his disease in its next stage means ward
option, and as all the men in the worst ward
do not want that, and as no law, under Demo-
crat rule, can be enforced against public opin-
ion, the next step and final end of the disease
is red-nosed option. This is the quintessence
of Democratic simplicity, and the final end of
the malady, just like in the good old days. Is
there no help for the governor?
