W .v*" The force bill in to the average demo­ s"' erat what a rod fla*f Is to an enrag-cd Lv,,. tavine--the signal for adriitional rage pfr. * tend rant/* One would suppose that a , miniature army with infantry on guard, ,iX, and artillery and cavalry in easy hail- lug distance, was to be in attendance at *' • every polling place to menace and ter* •% >, frorize the innocent voter, making life a ; v>. burden at every election. '$t -* The main provision of til© force bill • Was that on the application of one hun- ... tired voters in any congressional district ,two supervisors, appointed by the fed- ?" /; * i era! ,courts, should be present at the ', Registration offices to witness the regis- tering of voters, and at the polling y£ places to witness the voting on election day. One of these two supervisors was t \ to be a democrat,the other a republican. In case there arose a dispute as to the ' election these two supervisors were to testify before the elections committee It*' of congress as to the proceedings they 2V witnessed at the polls or at the regist ra- ,k; tion offices and produce such evidence J|Lrr-jthereof as they might have been able f$/ to secure on the spot and preserve, fe;, In 1870 a law was passed under which federal supervision was exercised by f ^ Supervisors of election, representing .LVViboth parties, in all cities of 20,000 br j,j i;; toore population. This supervision was ? '•? '• ffiven on registration and election days, | -tend the law had the support of all the ** J leading democrats in congress at that time, including W. G. Whitney. S. S. Cox, Gen. Slocum and all the congress­ men from the city of Brooklyn. This supervision was ordered ou petition, and as many democrats as republicans requested the appointment of the su- :. pervisors. At nearly every election since 1870, this law ha6 been invoked in large cities, at congressional elections, and always with satisfactory results. In Chicago both parties have united in asking for the service, and the super­ visors were always equally divided be­ tween the parties. Now, the force bill, so odious to the democrats, is nothing more than the application of the law of 1870, operative in v large cities on xe- quest, to the country everywhere, south as well as north, and it is this feature that so alarms the democrats. So long as eleetions in the south can be lun as now, with white men at the | machinery and to do all the voting and ! counting and the black man kept in political bondage by shotgun per­ suasion, just so long will the demo­ crats north and south be happy. But a proposition, eminently fair, unquestion­ ably just and peremptorily demanded, to protect citizens in their God-given rights of manhood and blood-bought privilege of the right to cast a free­ man's ballot and have it honestly counted, gives the democracy ajll tjjbe. symptoms of excessive indulgence in un­ ripe fruit. All " Unconstitutional." One of our distinguished generals' Awing the war remarked: "When I bear a man declaring everything un­ constitutional I always spot him." The general could have gone one step fur­ ther, and after spotting him. a closer examination would have disclosed the fact that the constitution shrieker was a democrat of the fire in the rear draft re­ sisting type. Certain it is that the vio­ lent opposition manifested at every stage of the contest came from the same class of men, all appealing to the constitution. "Yourd--d draft is uncon­ stitutional," said a democrat, who at a safe distance was listening to Col. iT'*>• Bob Ingersoll, in one of his grand ap­ peals for the rigorous prosecution of the-- ' 'What do you know about it," re­ plied the orator. "Ten to one you can't iell the constitution from a leather apron;" and the colonel was not far out of the way. In 1860 they declared it to be unconstitutional to send relief to Maj. Anderson in Fort Sumter; uncon­ stitutional to cross the line between the loyal north and seceding south; un­ constitutional to march through Balti­ more to the relief of Washington; un­ constitutional to free the negroes by proclamation; unconstitutional to pre­ vent armed traitors marching on Wash­ ington in 1863; unconstitutional to issue greenback money; unconstitu­ tional to amend the constitution; un­ constitutional to suppress the copper­ heads in 1863; unconstitutional to make our paper money good as gold in 1879; and unconstitutional to build up home industries by protection in 1892; from all of which it would seem as if the con­ stitution itself was utterly unconstitu­ tional. In spite of the constitutional shriekers on the one hand, and the ca­ lamity shriekers on the other, t.ViU country is destined to live and prosper under the joint auspices of constitu­ tional protection to American indus­ tries. . Patmerisra Boiled Down. A farmer having occasion to hire for awhile, and, later on, to pay off and discharge, a man who wanted work very badly at the start, returned in the even­ ing to find the discharged man very mnch at home on the porch, but idle. The following conversation took place: Farmer--"I thought I discharged you this morning?" Laborer--"Well, what of it?" Farmer--"What of it? Well, that's eooL I propose to put you off'these premises at once." Laborer--"You cannot do H.n Farmer--"I own this place, and you must get out." . Laborer--"There you're' off, squire. Tour wile is interested in this farm as a partner. 1 heard her tell you yester­ day that you didn't own everything on the place. That partnership makes this farm a 'public institution' according to Senator Palmer, and I have a right to remain here as long as I please. That old farmer is not in love with Palmer. Republican Reciprocity Did It. In 1891, during the ten months end- teg April 30 of that year, the exports of carriages, horse cars and cars for steam railroads from the United States to Brazil amounted in value to $482,780. En 1892, under republican reciprocity , during the corresponding period, our exports, of such articles to that country amounted in value to $7 4.%483. This increase of 1262,TO3, or 54.5 per cent., was caused by republican reci- W €. T; U.

The bitterest tiling to meet is prejudice prejudging--making up your mind be­ fore you have seen the evidence. People who even seem candid will do this. "Yes, I will read, but not things published by your Temperance Society; I wont read thein." & Now here is just the point--they will not take evidence, and that gathered by peo­ ple whose business it is to set forth the evidence. We marvel sometimes at the Jews, who were said by the prophets to shut their eyes and ears and harden their hearts; but the same thing is done in our day.^ If men do not want to be convinced, they will calmy shut out conviction. A man was talking to me the other day of the evils which threatened our country, until he really feared civil war- He was a perfectly temperate roan but not enough awake to the subject to see that the mpney made (or lost) by strikes goes to the rumseller.. ° When the men are on a strike they drink; if they fail they drink; if they succeed they celebrate their victory by drinking; and the ru m and beer seller is the earnest promoter of strikes. Any hope we have aside from the word ot God and prayer lies in the action of the various states in self-defense on the score o! temperance, and that must come from public sentiment; for we can't make the laws better than the people and have them obeyed. Our people talk of tyranny, but there is no tyranny like that of alcohol. OUR STOCK OF TISSFM^D FINE SUMMER & FALL CLOTHING Is very complete now, and more now clothing Is now arriving.
