The Columns of THE TIMES are open to
all who
desire a candid discussion of questions of inter

course we do not hold ourselves responsible for
correspondent'sopinions.

THUBSDAY, AUGUST 22,1889.
The Argus Leader says the popu
lation of Sioux Falls is 14,583, that
city making again of 4,254, the past
year.
John L. Sullivan has been sent
up for one year in Mississippi, and
the officers are after Kilrain with
eveiy prospect of giving him the
same treatment. Good for Miss
issippi
And the Minneapolis Tribune
gives the community a little "song
and dance" about "the old mother
of rebels, braggarts and bullies"
redeeming herself by the convic
tion of Sullivan. The truth of the
matter is, candid men who are
acquainted in the two sections, say
that laws are observed in the south
and the people there are just as law
abiding and as good citizens as can
be found anywhere. Why not give
Mississippi—and in fact the south
due credit for trying to do right,
without on every occasion throwing
"rebel" and "traitor" and "lawless
ness" at her. We shall see whether
the next proposed fight in Minne
apolis will be stopped or punished.
One occurs there every little while.
They are called sparring exhibitions.
The Northern Dakota and Nor
thern Pacific elevator companies
have effected such business deal ias
to do away with all competition for
grain, on the ground that a single
line of elevators could do thehan
dllng of grain this year. Will the
the time ever come when the north'
western farmer can ship his grain
directly to the trade centres and
knock out the middle men now sap
ping the life .out of him. The far
mer should be able to deliver his
grain nearer to the people who
manufacture it into flour and to
those who consume it. The first
step toward this system would beL
however, the lifting of home mort,
gages and the erection of individual
granaries on the farm producing the
grain. When that time comes the
farmer will be in a position to de
mand bis righto.
Mr. Miller Nominated.
The people's interests in the Re
publican fold of North Dakota have
triumphed, and the Hon. John Mil
ler has been nominated for gover
nor. It is the first signal victory
ever recorded on Dakota soil for the
people against the great combine
which has always heretofore domi
neered over and brow-beaten every
thing and everybody into submis
sion. We were in Fargo Wednes
day and it is true that the contest
was one of the most terrific on
record. The old and powerful com
bine had its trained wheel-liorpek,
who cover every phase of life in the
northwest, on the ground ami
strained every nerve for a continua
tion of their supremacy but goocl
fortune attended the brave fellows
who stood by this feature in the
people's interests in this great
struggle, aud who now promise at
least decency in the conduct of
public state matters, the trimmers
were downed, and the Democracy
it is now said, is saved the trouble
of electing the first governor 'of
North Dakota. The people oppos
ing corruption and,' carpet-baggism
and Mr. Miller combining the peo
ple's party, constituted his strength
in the struggle.
It was Gov. Church who first
called public attention to the Sage
of Dwight in these simple but true
words: "John Miller of Richland i»
one of the few men who came to
Bismarck with honorable intenr
ttons." And in view of the ill
mannered fight heaped upon Gov.
Church last winter, let it be remem
bered to his everlasting credit Sir.
Miller took no part in or sympa
thized with it, these words were
quoted all over the northwest, in
cluding the twin city papers and
actually set John Miller's star In
the ascendancy and it is just thi(s
of public decency on his part
fidelity to honorable intention
which makes him the people's can
didate in the Republican party fpr
the first governor of the new state
-of North Dakota.

Mr. Springer on Prohibition.
Congressman Springer of Illinois
in Minneapolis last week, and being
interviewed on various questions,
and always talking to the point and
entertainingly said of prohibition in
the new states:
I hardly think it possible to enforce
prohibitory laws, however, and do
not think an attempt in that direc
tion will be made, as the new coiners
will profit by the returns on that
issue in staid little Khode Island.
You cannot enforce prohibition un
less a large majority of the people
in a given section are in favor of it.
When I was in Bangor, Me.,
last year a friend informed me that
there were over 60 places in that
town where a man could get liquor
over the bar, and why should laws
be made only to be broken?
The Pioneer Press heaped ridicule
upon Gov. Lewry of Mississippi for
attempting to stop prize fighting in
that state,claiming that the authori
ties there were only making a pre
tentions claim to decency. It is the
common thing for these bullies to
indulge in their prize fighting all
over the north, and tlio idea that a
lawless and unrepentant rebel state
should undertake to do anything de
cent and lawful was more than the
virtuous P. P. could stand, hence its
ridicule. But since Gov. Lowry of
that state did send north and cap
ture Boston's new candidate for con
iss and otherwise distingushed
citizen, the southern courts having
convicted him of prize fighting and
sentenced to a year's imprisonment,
the P. P. reluctantly works up a
halt column in Sunday's paper the
gist of which is that since the law
is to be vindicated in a "community
which is not particularly distin
guished by its reverence for law of
any description," it ought not to be
difficult to enforce the law in other
sections, etc., presumably distin
guished for good things. We think
it a pretty good rule to be always
ready to give the devil his due.
But then the P. P. like most repub
lican organs, is great on playing
upon sectional prejudices. In fact
that is their stock in trade. It was
in Minneapolis Sullivan had his arm
broken a few months since.
Probibition in Massachusetts.
Here are samples of letters writ
ten during the late campaign which
so effectually buried prohibition in
Massachusetts:
DR. JOHN DIXWELL.
After some nineteen years' work
in charity, and fully realizing the
fearful results of the abuse of alco
holic drinks, I am convinced that
such evil can only be prevented, or
lessened even, to any great degree,
by the honest, careful instruction of
the masses, old and young, as to the
average consequences of using
strong drinks habitually or to excess,
I do not believe that any law can
work much permanent benefit in the
real interest of temperance.
JOHN DIXAVELL, M. D.,
52 West Cedar street.
Boston, March 18,1889.
KEV. PERCY BROWNE.
Your question as to the expedi
ency of making Prohibition a part
of the organic law of the State
is,
practically, a question as to the most
effective method of preventing in
temperance. To my mind the prac
tical answer ought to be deter
mined by what experience has thus
far taught of the relative value of
Prohibition and high license a:
methods of preventing intemper
ance. I think experience in both
methods has shown high
license
to
be most effective for cities and,
am, therefore, compelled, in the
terest of temperance, to vote "no"
to the Prohibitory proposition.
in-
Yours truly, PERCY BROWNE.
Roxbury, March 18, 1889.
CHARLES P. CURTI8.
,,, Fully alive to the evils of intem
perance, I am nevertheless opposed
io the adoption of any amendment
Jto the constitution prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of intoxicat
ing liquors.
The constitution establishes gen
eral principles of government and
leaves these principles to be carried
into effect by the Legislature, guid
ed by public sentiment.
Should the constitution descend
to the detail of prescribing what a
citizen of Massachusetts must not
drink, it might as reasonably pre
scribe what he must not eat, or
what he must not believe.
Public sentiment must be educat
ed up to the point where juries
will convict and this must be done
through the agencies of the day
schools and the Sunday-schools.
Yours truly,
CHARLES P. CURTIS.
Boston, March 18, 1889.
MRS. JAMES T. FIELDS.
I should like to believe that Pro
hibition would prohibit. I would
?ladly
do anything in my power to
revent the manufacture of intoxi
cating liquors in Massachusetts, but
I firmly believe that a cordial en
forcement by the people of the laws
we now have, would do more to pre
vent drunkenness than any further
legislation at the present time.
While the cases we already have be
fore the courts are not prosecuted,
how are we to obtain prosecution of
the still larger number of arrests tin
ker sterner laws While our police
Officers are discouraged from arrest
ing the well-known drinkers and
abusive men at present reported to
them, what will strengthen their
wills when twice the number of law
breakers are pointed out to them,
j- It does not appear to be legislation
tfiat is needed just now, but "a lit
tle plain religion" among our people.
ukk^i.
MRS. JAMES T. FIELDS.
With the September number of
"Godey's Lady's Book" comes a
shower of good things. We felt
when we opened the magazine we
could not close its pages until all
had been read. The opening illus
trations, "Catch it Quick," cannot
fail to attract young and old, while
all the fair sex will be delighted
with numerous colored and black
fashion pages and work designs.
The opening story,(illustrated)"A
Dude's Undoing," by Dulcie Weir,
will teach a favorable lesson to the
fashionable world. "At Heather
hill," by Cornelia Redmond, is a
good story. "A Model American
Girl," by David Lowry, gives us
some strange glimpses into Wash
ington society. "A Summer Butter
fly, by Marian C. L. Iieeves, is a
bright little spot for a summer day's
reading, "A Fair Decision," by J.
E. L. The continuation of "A
Woman's Way," by Elsie Snow, and
the sequel of "Self Betraved," by
Anna M. Ford, ate both full of in
terest. "Ashes of Violets,', by Ada
Marie Peck. A humorous article
"How our Ancestors Cooked, or
What the first settler ate," by Ar
thur dudlev Vinton. "The Beauti
ful Home Club," numerous good
pieces of poetry, articles upon home
comfort, recipes, work table, foreign
gossip and fashion articles, complete
an exceptionally good number.
Five Harvest Excursions.
The annual harvest excursions of
the Northern Pacific railroad will
occur on Aug. 6th and 20th, Sept.
10th and 24th and Oct. 8tli, when
round trip tickets to western points
will be sold very cheap. F6r full

Democratic papers try to make
capital out of the fact that some dis
tant relatives of President Harrison
have proved worthy of being ap
pointed to office. If the president
cannot trust and appoint his own
relatives whose relatives shall be ap
point.—[Aberdeen News-
It is npt, perhaps, that the Demo
cratic papers find fault with this
republican practice, so much as it is
simply calling attention to the fact,
that with the latter, public office is!
not only a private snap but that to|
fully develop the idea and to showj
that republicanism means dollars'
and cents to the men wielding it
its first representative of the land in
stalls all of his relatives, now some
thirteen of them, into fat positions.
If that doesn't prove that "public
office is a private snap" with the
president, we do not know what
would.
COST OF PROHIBITION.
Ruinous Tax Rates—Values
Destroyed—Costs Increas
ecl—Facts that Voters
Must Face.
Facts are the most convincing
arguments. The following state
ment of the exhorbitant rates of
taxation existing in prohibition
states prove that prohibition does
increase taxes.
Taxes in Sioux City, Iowa, have
increased 113 per cent, under prohi
bition. The tax rate in Burlington,
Iowa, is over 53 mills on the dollar.
The tax rate in Council Bluffs,
Iowa is 80 mills on the dollar. The
rate of taxes in Des Moines, Iowa,
has reached 62 mills on the dollar.
The tax rate in Ottumwa, Iowa, is
44 mills on the dollar. The tax
rate in Lawrence, Kansas, is over
56 mills on the dollar. The tax rate
in Topeka, Kansas, is over 42 mills
on the dollar. The people of
Wichita, Kansas, pay 25 mills on
the dollar. Taxes in Atchison,
Kansas, have reached 57 mills on
the dollar. The tax rate in Marys
ville, Kansas, is 65 mills on the dol
lar. The rate before prohibition
was 25 mills. Property has depre
ciated 30 per cent. The average
tax rate in Kansas towns is over 40
mills. Taxes in Atlanta, Ga., in
creased 40 per cent, during the first
year of prohibition, and the city
was forced to sell 890,000 of gas
stock to pay expenses.
While these high rates prevail in
prohibition states, in neighboring
high license states the rates £re less
than one-third as high. Kansas
City, Missouri, for instance, pays
abont 14 mills on the dollar. This
indisputably proves that prohibition
increases taxes.
Under prohibition the towns,
counties and state of Pennsylvania
would lose millions of revenue.
This means an increase in general
taxes to make up the deficiency.
There were 1700 building unoccu
pied in the city of Des Moines,
Iowa, in June, 1887. Store-houses
are now offered for rent at one-half
the rentals obtained for them be
fore prohibition. 64 large brick
store-houses in the center of the
city are unoccupied.
The loss to Iowa from prohibi
tion is estimated at 810,000,000 per
year.
Rents in Atlanta, Ga., declined,
under prohibition, 15 to 60 per cent.
Two hundred stores and nine hun
dred residences stood empty. Under
license this has changed.
The cost of conducting the crimi
nal courts in Iowa increased from
8384,000 in 1883 under license, to
8452.000 in 1886, under prohibition.
This does not look much like the re
duction in expenses, which the pro
hibitionists say would follow the
adoption of their law.
Only two states in the Union have
ever lost population they were pro
hibition states. All states, without
exception, which have adopted pro
hibition, have increased in popula
tion slower after they adopted the
law than they did before, and have
increased faster after they repealed
the law than they did while it was in
force. All states, also, which have
adopted prohibition, have increased
in population less rapidly than sim
ilarly situated states under license.

The Jamestown Capital, official

You were not sent there to bar

capital location deal*. No man who
votes to fasten that imposition upon

elected to a position of trust in
North Dakota. Let the mark of

"Pick a Back" is a charming pic
ture the wood illustration, "The

pretty. The illustrated article gives
prvariety of head dresses and cos

ing way. Miss Bowman's serial,
In St. Tammany Parish," ends
most touchingly, while the other
continued story, "Ted and I," ends
in as sprightly a manner as it com
menced. The short stories are ex
pectionally good and the fashion
and household notes are as complete
as ever. The "Talk by a Trained

that India will export little, if -any,
this year. The Russianwheat £rop

"I've jus' got a letter Matilda
From our old Friend Tom, Vou Know,
He wants us to come to Milwaukee
To attend the Encampment show.
You know Matilda, ol'Tom and me
Fought sine by side in the battle.
And he was always a smilin'
When the bullets began to ratt le.
We both tit side by side
Thro' the long and bloody war,
And now we're goin' to meet again
With the loyal G. A. R.
Thai's one thing certain, Matilda,
Vou know I've always said
If old Tom and me ever met
We'd paint Milwaukee red.
We'll give her a coat of Vermillion,
•Tis a color I've long admired.
And we'll whoop her up lor the American
Flag,
'Till we both get awfully tired.
Milwaukee's a beautiful city,
We'll have a glorious time.
An' the ride will be par excellence
On the Wisconsin Central Line."
