Among : tbo problems which remain to 1
solved by our legislatures nono are so grai
and pressing1 and none threaten consequence
so disastrous to all that is sacred in our insl
tutions as the American 6aloon system. Tl
'
Kepublica n party platform says ( in its annea
"The first concern of good government is tl
virtue and sobriety of its citizens. " Thisv
all know is true. How to curtail aud final ]
destroy this evil is the great problem of tt
hour. Its solution stands next on the world
calendar of progress. It has been called u
for trial and it cannot be postponed or di
missed. Tho 6aloon has boldly entered pol
tics and it has come to stay until vanquish !
or yictorious. This malignant power has o
ganized and massed its mighty forces for tl
conflict. This is the great battle of Armagei
don that the people of this day are called upo
to fight On one side is Error supported by a
the powers , of darkness , on tho other is Trut
supported by all the armies of heaven. Tl
saloon power has organized its vast force
from its political alliances and now couscioi
of its strength bids deflauco to law and publ ;
sentiment. It bus hoisted tho black flag an
proclaimed that all who will not swear alleg
ance to it. . shall politically perish. The tira
has therefore come when the issue must t
met. Political parties cannot longer evad
it. Private citizens must take sides openl
for or against the saloon. Neutrality is hence
forth impossible and indiiTerence is a betrayi
v
of the trust involved in citizenship as in reve
'
lutionary times and in tho days of a nti-slaver
agitation every lover of freedom and of In
manity must rush to arms. Not carnal woai
ons , this time , but you must gird ontheswor
of the spirit , the word of God's truth which i
mighty to tho pulling down of strong hold
and for overthrowing wicked spirits in th
high places. These wicked spirits in the hig
places of our land are entrenched in the 1
censed saloon , protected by the highest at
thority in our government. That they nr
wicked spirits is seen by their work : to main
tain tho right to get money by the wholesal
destruction of life and health and propertj
It corrupts tho ballot , bribes legislatures
tampers with juries and seeks to intiun 'dut
by arson and assassination. Not less thai
eightj thousand victims go annually to th
drunkard's grave from the homes of our pec
pie. Alas ! bow terrible is this judgment o
the saloons. Oh ! that from every hill top am
every valley , from every mountain and prai
rie , from lake to gulf , from sea to sea then
might arise the voice of one sixty million o
people in a solemn declaration of indepen
dence from this cruel monster. As did ou
fathers when they resolved to throw off tin
absolute authority of a bad king. So let in
give some facts to a candid public. This mon
ster sitting supreme in the politics of tin ;
county has enacted laws to license slaughte
houses in our towns and cities where men
women and children are destroyed withou
mercy. He is the cause of nine-tenths of al
the woes that curse our people. He hidej liii
deformity under forms of law enacted by hi !
vassals over .whose heads he cracks the slave
driver's lush in the halls of legislation. He de
bauches innocent children ; tears sons fron
the arms of sorrowingmothers and sends then
to dishonored graves. He wrings hot tear *
from the widows whose husbands he has sacri
flced at the drunken shrine of Moloch. He
governs courts of justice and makes masters
of the law and legislation his servants. He
marches annually eighty thousand of our citi
zcus in a staggering procession to death hik
hell. His butcheries go on nightly and hourly
in the sight of our homes. V. 'e can Lear the
(
shriek of Lis victims and the wail of tht
bereaved. Oh ! for an uprising of righteous in-
aignatior.an aroused American eonscienco foi
patriotic devotion to homo and country that
will drive this monster from our 'fair land.
Under nil forms of license the work of ruin
and death goes on. The prohibition of the
liquor trallic is the demand or the people ; it ie
In the air nothing can.resist the onward march
af , a genuine reform for it is the Messianic
purpose to set judgment in the earth. Dear
friends , have we the courago to issue our dec
laration of independence and with a firm re
liance ou Divine Providence pledge our lives ,
Dur property and our sacred honor that from
this time forth no word e > r act of ours may be
construed into allegiance to this felon king.
He must bo driven from this place of power
ind utterly overthrown. The conflict is upon
us and it will be a lifo and death struggle.
Huppy are they who espotiso this most right
eous cause for they shall be called faithful
ind true aud nt the last shall receive the crown
if victory , which tho Lord , the righteous Judgo
.vlll give all them that love his kingdom and
tppeariug.

A great amount of political engineering will
be done by friends of candidates to secure for
their man the first place on the ticket , and the
best man will probably secure the coveted

Little Boys by a'Little Girl.
From Chatter.
Boys is men that have not got as big as their
papa ; girls is young women that will be young
ladies by and by. Mnn wag made before wom
an. When God looked at Adam he 6aid to him-
self ; "Well , I guess I can do better than that
if I try again , " and then he made Eve. God
liked Eve so much better than he did Adam
that there has been more women than men in
the world oversince. Boysareatrouble ; they
are verv wearing on everything but soap. If
I could have my way , half the boys in the
world would be little girls , and the other half
would be dolls. My papa was so nice to me
that I guess he must have been a girl when ho
was a little boy.
Their Business Booming.
Probably no one tiling has caused such a
general revival of trade nt A.MeMillen'sdrug
store as their giving away to their customers
of so many free trial bottles or Dr. King's New-
Discovery for Consumption. Their trade is
simply enormous in this very valuable article
from the fact that it always cures and never
