W. E. DOUSKY, Chairman. Fremont. June 9. 183. The Journal named Dorsey and lira dy, yesterday evening, as the republi can candidates for 1884. It probably forgets that these men were prosecuted bv a republican administration and cleared by a iurv. two-thirds of which were democrats. The Ohio democratic convention is in favor of a "judicious and properly craded license system" in "regard to the liquor traffic. In the democratic lexicon, "judicious and properly graded when applied to the liquor traffic, meats just as about as little regulation as one can possibly dream of. It is a meaning less phrase, and is intended only for li cense democrats. The liquor men will all vote for such a platform, for they expect their kind of lellows will "prop erly grade' it . Si'EAkino of Judge Hoadly, the dem ocratic nominee for governor of Ohio, the editor of (he Omaha Herald calls him the "matchless candidate." We were at a loss to understand the Her ald's rhapsodies over this democratic prodigy, until It leaked out the other day that this man Hoadly, was the only democratic lawyer in the United States who had cheek enough to get up an ar gument. in defense of red nosed Croain, of Oregon fame, who attempted the feat of national larceny, by stealing the electoral vote of Oregon for Mr. Til den and reform .It is clear to ns now. In the ground scuffle for place, had in the Democratic Convention in Ohio, day before yesterday, that sturdy old bourbon, Allen G. Thurman, he of the " red bandaner," made a manful fight for his old friend Durbm "Ward, and warned the Ohio Democracy not to nominate the other fellow, nor ' trim " in making up their platform ; yet the old man was unceremoniously sat down upon ; the other fellow was nominated, and an evasive platform was promulgated. The Democratic hope of carrying Iowa is no doubt a slim one. The sit uation, however, does not justify the Republicans in taking any more risks than are necessary. Their majority has gra lually dwindled for a few years past. Formerly a solid Republican delegation to Congress was naturally expected from the State. This custom was broken by the Greenl.ackers, and in the next House there will be one Greenback and two Democratic Rtp resentatives. The Prohibition ques tion may cause a still further diminu tion of thaparty's strength. The cam paign this year will be the most earnest the State , ever witnessed. While the Republican State ticket is probably safe, it would not be surprising to see the party's candidate for Supreme Court Judge defeated. If such a re sult ensues and the Republicans are weakened, it will be caused manifestly by allowing a few extremists too much influence in party councils. N. Y. Tribune. " GERMAN VOTERS AND THE OHIO LIQUOR LAWf. The Scott law was approved by the Ohio Republican convention, and no fair-minded republican can discover in that any tendency toward ''ultra sumpt uary legislation." The howl that is raised ogainst the operation, of the law emanates altogether from the liquor and beer brewing interests, which do net want any reduction in the number less gin and beer mills of the larc cities. The "beer drinkers are not af tected in the least by the law, neither in point of quantity to be drank, nor price to be paid for the article con sumed. As far as the German Ameri can voters are concerned, it has been observed that they begin tfl recognize in this continued opposition ot the dis tillers and brewers to all fair and equitable legislation that tends to regu late the liquor and beer traffic the fact tnat their votes are only the political capital with whish it is sought to en force special claims of exemption from taxation. The license of 8100 imposed on a beer shop by the Scott law is not in any sense prohibitory, nor dqeq t place a stigma upon the lusines, as the brewers woatd like to have their dupes believe. The whole question Is simply one of revenue, and the manufacturers who hail the establishment of each ad ditional gin mill or beer shop with anticipations of increase! profit and gain, are naturally opposed to the im position of tax. That it Is becoming plain to the average German beer driukers, and sooner or later they will decline to be made the political foot ball of beer manufacturers who. cre fr nothing but the increase of (heir own wealth and capital. New York Repub-ihcaner. Temperance Departmenl Under the auspice of tlio riattamoittli W. C. T. V. COMIl'TKI BV MR. .?. N. W'ISK - To whom all communications I r thin depart ment eliould be addressed. Mrs. J. N, Wise: Dear Sister I have just come to tlie hour, and really the first one, when I conl-1 fulfTil my promise to tell you something of my work in the state As some of my appointments prove to be (like one stormy W. C T. U. so ciable) disappointments. I will only mention a few. Merc and more, as I ps over tlie face of tliis beautiful stale, and see tlie evidence of its marvelous growth, its cities and villages, springing up in a day; and its very trees that beautify their streets, confirming tlie faith in the wonderful gourd that sheltered the prophet at Xinevah, do I feel that this must have been in the dim distance, when the prophet's eagle eye caught the vision of a "wilderness that should rejoice and blossom as the lose." I grow to appreciate Nebraska as never before; and yet, though I go away out toward the mouutains or to the far north west, where the Union Pacific has scat tered so many blessings, in spite of tlie many cursings it has received, if I stand and look at the newly opened streets of the town of a day, or rest in the homes that have been builded a whole decade, I am frequently brought to see the pic ture as Moore has drawn it of tho Peri standing at the gate of Paradise and listening to the angel "poor race of men" said the pitying spirit, ''dearly ye pay for your primal fall. Some flowerets of Eden still ye inherit them all.". But the trail of the serpent is over for right along by the side of the pioneer who has come to stay, and to build for himself and his dear ones a homa, glides the serpent, and when ho has set his stakes, and begun to bu'ld for the future, the hiss is heard, build up and I will destroy; educate your children, I will degrade them, and as you sit un der your own ''viue and fig tree" tl ey shall shelter me. Nut that they hear these words, (more's the pity) because' the air is full of the noise of the saw and the hammer, and the buzz of machinery, tL-3 hisses are unheard, but they mean business. At Madison, I found to my great sur prise, a verp pretty village, three nice churches, with good schools and con gregations, and as intelligent an audi ence as I have seen in Nebraska. And yet here the demon of Eum had plant ed himself by the side of the church and the school and asked for the sun- port of the town, as well as the rest o! the institutions for the public benefit, and strange to say, men had listened, and for the greed of gold, had given him place; Organized a union of 20 members and 6 honorary members. from Madison to Columbus, to attend the State S. S. Convention, the 1 est, many say, ever hed in Nebraska. A resolution, offered by a lady, pledging the convention to make the effort to pledge every child in the S. S. Schools of the State to total abstinence, and to be more thorough in temperance instruction, was received with much feeling, and unanimously adopted by a rising vote. Thence to Osceola, the capital of Polk county: Here the committee showed that they thought the motto of the W. C T. U, "Tor God. and Home, and Native Land," meant some thing, and was worthy the attention of God and true men and. women. Meet ings wera held in the court house ; we were welcomed by the band, which dis- discoursed grandly its inspiring strains, The Glee Club added their melodies and so sustained, we made an effort to speak of this great question. There were large audiences each evening; as a result a Union was. formed forty- six ladies and about half the number of gentlemen Mrs. Nance, wife of Hon. Albinus Nance, former Governor of this State, being President, and Mrs. Jennie K. Kyle, wife of a rising you.ng lawyer of the coun;$yt Corresponding Secretary, There has never been a li cense granted in Polk county yet, but think not the serpent has forgotten', An effort has been niad,e t& controvert the desires v'zena of Osceola by forcing a saloon upon them a peti tion having the required nmber of names being obtairied4 promising a " first class 3r4aoa( eminently lespecta ble.'t nut as soon .'is this was known, all honor to the business men of the, town a remonstrance, signed, by the best and truest including lawyers, doc tors milliners, hankers, and not least in ' influence, is ex-Governor Nance, protesting against it. So, for the pres ent, it is shut out. Rum cannot en dure to see prosperity unless be may come and en'oy it tH$ and for rum to enoy the prosperity of others is to tear down wba.t they build.

More anon. Truly Yours, for God and Home and Native Lund, Emily M. J. Coolkv. The aetion of the Democratic conven tion which met and nominated a state ticket at Columbus, Ohio day before yesterday, will certainly prove a bitter disappointment to tho free trade wing how bravely they whistle through the ' -.1 ..T Al....- 1.1 A...1 gravuyaiu ui men unisiiu iiujn;s unu expectations. Rut one day before that convention met, the Omaha Herald, the mouth-piece of bourbonism in Nebraska appealed to the democracy of Ohio to declare against the tarill plan in ringing tones. Said the Herald : 'Tomorrow tha democratic conven tion in Ohio will meet to nominate a 'state ticket headed by a governor. It "is of the utmost importance, not only "to the commonwealth in question but "to the country at large, that the men "and principles advanced on this occa sion should bo decided, strong and "sound, and ring the the key note for "this and. the greater campaign that is "to follow. The tarilT it is conceded "will be the coming issue." The convention met and here is their declaration upon the "coming issue." "Wo favor a tariff for revenue, limited to necessities of the government, eco nomically administered and adjusted in its application as to prevent unequal burdens, etcouraging productive indus tries at home and afford just compensa tion to labor, but not to create or foster monopolies; that acts of the republican congress reduciong the tariff on wool, while at the same time increasing it on woolen goods, was iniquituos legislation discriminating in favor of monopoly against agriculture and ought to be corrected."' A tariff that will enoour "age productive industries at home and "afford just compensation to labor, but "not to create or foster monopolies." This hasli "ring" to it and may be the "key note" for the great campaign that is to follow" but the ring and the note is that of protection to our "productive industries", although just what produc tive means in the connection Tn which it is used in the platform will most probably be hard to explain; but this convention evidently afraid this declaration in favor of protection was not strong enovfgh for the intelligent Buckeye, emphasize it with the further argument that it may, "afford ju6t com pensation to labor." Thus we. Siul the democracyof Ohio,,th.& Mate thatamong j its "prod. -Motive industries has produced such blatant free-traders as Mr. F'auk Hurd, and several other Iroquis chiefs, i making a declaration on the tariff ques tion that would suit the most energetic protectionist from the iron regions of Pennsylvania; and It this Ohio -key note " is to be taken as an instruction to be followed by the forthcoming National Democratic Convention, pro tection to home industries is to be a cardinal tenet of the Democratic faith for 1SS4. In view of all this, it now remains to be seen what tho heroes of the Detroit M diet of isms " are going to da about that " independent party " with w hich they were threatening our Democratic brethren ; and it will be but fit .and proper for the editor of the Omaha Herald to invoke the rustling spirit of our antimonopoliat friend from " Arbor Springs Lodge " to de clare hi3 position through its columns in view of this Ohio heresy; but this Ohio Democracy go still further and join lustily in the "Ohio kick;" on the Wool question, it declares, that the reduction of tariff 'duties upon wool is " an iniquitous proceeding. " We venture the prediction that for clear dodging and evasive twisting, the Ohio Democratic Convention, which adjourned yesterday morning, has put forth a platform which will not be equalled by any other conven tion, during the season of 1SS3.
