There is no more promising patriot iD this country than John A. Brooks.—Gen Jas. A. Garfield. Hugh Harrison, our candidate for Gov ernor will be here Oct. 81. Also the crank quartette. The managers of the Republican Na tional campaign are no fools. They un derstand perfectly well that to win in this campaign they must get a good share of both the liquor vote and of the tem perance vote. They propose to have it. They have secured the Mail and Ex press to scatter broadcast among the tem Serance people the statement that tb Republican party has taken such a stain for temperance that all the saloon keep ers and distillers and brewers are leaving its ranks in a body. That is to catch the temperance vote. Then, to get the liquor vote, it has se cured tbe services of a German paper ol St. Louis—the Tribune—thousands copies of which are being circulated bj the National Republican Committe among the German saloons: This paper being printed in German, does not giv the "snap" away to the ordinary individ ual, but the New York Voice got onto and has translated the following iteir from it: "German Democratic party men neve omit to point to tne Prohlbitio States of Iowa and Kansas whenevt they wish to slander the Republican pai ty in the eyes of the German. The quet tion, however, is: Have they, theDemc crats aright thus to reproach us? and ev ery sensible man will immediately hav to answer 'No,'for it is just as if a mu* derer were to call a petty thief a lav breaker. How is it in Democratic states Here in Missouri our Personal Libert has been systematically murdered W the Bourbons Under Loeal Option laws already one-half of the state is suffering under Prohibition almost every one of the Prohibition counties gives a Demo cratic majority. Would it have Jbeen possible to carry these counties for local irohibition had not the Democrats voted or it? And then our splendid Sunday laws! Are they not the work of the Bourbons? In the southern states the Democracy is thoioughly Prohibition Democratic Georgia has an abominable Sunday law. There a saloon keeper, who keeps open on Sunday and sells any thing, must pay a fine of $1,000, and-is condemned to one year of hard work in the chain-gang. The people are not even permitted to enjoy themselves in accord ance with their own wishes, behind the four walls of their own houses. The moral of this is, that the German voters in each state must ally themselves with that party which is the least iBfected with this temperance contagion and in Mis souri, and so far as national politics is concerned, that party is the Republican. It had the courage to declare in 1872, 'we oppose prohibition,' and to this day it has not retreated from this position." It must be remembered that these doc uments are being, distributed from the National Republican headquarter in New York city.—Beacon. f*ot a Good Prophet. Georgia is substantially a Prohibition state an election upon that issue would doubtless be carried by the Prohibition ists but if there be a Prohibition elector al ticket in that state we venture to pre dict that it will receive very few votes. The Georgia Prohibitionists are also Democrats, and they will not throw away their votes upon candidates who have no chance of an election.—Milwau kee Sentinel. As a comment on this comes the vote in the Atlanta senatorial district, Oct "4: Rice, Democrat 3.888 Small, Prohibitionist .2,887 Van Pelt, Republican .1,768 New York Tribune (R^p.) Sept 27: "One of the developments of this cam aign which is going to startle every joay will be the number of saloon keep ers who are now talking and will be found working and voting for Miller I Republican candidate for Governor of Sew York) and high license.
