Tite Omaha R )MfcZica7 lias been aud
is, under its present management, doing
splendid work in discussing the industri
al question.
The prohibition party of the county
is to be pitied on account of the man St.
John, who is ever present at its conven
tions and in close states, making demo
cratic speeches under its banners. His
liarrangue in Omaha the other evening
certainly lays him open to grave sus
picion in view of the charge that he i.
in the employ of the democratic party,
and his appearance in Iowa delivering
the corsest kind of democratic harrangues
against the prohibition party of that
state is evidcuc: which we can sec m
other way of explaining. The republi
can party of Iowa has not only enacted
prohibition but it has enforced it by
stringent laws which smack of the era oi
puritanism yet, in the face of this fact
St. John i found in Iowa denouncing
that party and the particular plank in
its piariorm which advocates tne same
policy touching the internal revenue tax
on whiskey that the national prohibition
party advocates. Can these antics of the
professional prohibitionist be explained
from any other than a mercenary point
of view ? .When a party claiming to be
founded on a great moral principle fol
lows a man like St. John and endorses a
jjolicy on the party of its own party,
which avowedly advocates the success oi
the great rum party of the
country, abandoning its electora
ticket in sections when the possibility oi
its support would endanger democratic
success and makes open war on prohibi
tion itself where it finds it enacted and
enforced by the republican party, it
should not complain if plaia matter-of-fact
people lose confidence in the honesty
of its purpose and cease to have respet t
for iU high professions. We have no
kind of respect for demagogues and pro
fessional reformers of the calibre of John
J St. John.
DEMOCRATIC LIES.
The other evening the Journal printed

forth by the Omaha Herald, to the effec t
that Levi P. Morton, instead of donating
food to the suffering people of Ireland.
sold the ship load of provisions (sent b
himself) to that hungry people for the
highest market price. The facts are yen
fully set forth, we notice, by the Omahi-
Republican of the ICth inst, in an article
in which the paper asks the Omaha lit-
raid if it has enough common honestv
left to correct the lie, and it may not b
offensive to the good morals of this com
munity to call the Journars attcntior
to the lie and see if that organ of democ
racy is willing to correct the falsehood it
lias been a party to scattering against Ire
land's friend, the Hon. Levi P. Morton
candidate for vice presdent on the
iionai repuoiican ticket. March 10th,
1880, the New York Herald published
the whole facts in the case as follows:
We print a most welcome letter from i

cities will make up the balance.
rvEW Iork, 3Iarch 10, 1880. I learn
from the secretary of the navv that the
frhip Constellation, which he proposes to
n na witii contributions of food to Ire
land under authority of both houses ol
congress, approved February 25. 1880, if
at the Brooklyn navy yard, but that no
tenders of cargo have been made. You
ore authorized to announce that a "entle-
inan, personally known to you, offers to
pay for one-quarter of the cago of the
Constellation if other parties will make the
balance. The capability of the ship is
equal to 2,300 barrels of flour, but her
cargo should be made of flour, oatmeal,
and seed-potatoes, which last would ar
rive in time for planting and replace
those which the sufferers have leen
forced to use to sustain life. I shall de
sire the distribution of the cargo to be
made by Mr. liennett's committee. As
you are aware these articles of food will
be delivered frco of cost, save to me
government If you approve the idea
you can make the proposition without
for the present at least using my name.
You can assume to guarantee the perfor
mance of my offer. Believe me, yours
very truly, A Fkiesd.
Eight days later, when tha total cargo
had been subscribed, the Herald, with
out consulting Mr. Morton, made his
- 0 ,
name public, explaining: "As his offer
was conditional and it was uncertain
wheter the condition would be complied
with he had a reluctance to see his name
connected with an offer which he might
not be able to fulfill. But, now that the
cargo is complete and the offer binding,
we take the liberty to state that the gen
erous donor who infused life into this
movement is the Hon. Levi P. Morton.
If Mr. Grace, who was an equal contribut
or, falls behind Mr. Morton, it is because
he did not lead the way, but followed,
instead of setting an inspiring example."

In the spirit of those great leader' and of our

which is the fundamental idea of the republi

great act of emancipation which completed
the abolition of slavery throuhout the two

may soon congratulate our fellow citizens of
