Dana, that veteran journalist says that Cbaancejr Depew “would un doubtediy beat out of-eigbt in New York any man the Democracy could put up, with the exception of Govern or Ilili.” It pains ua to sec that Bre’j Dana still insists on essuming the role of a prophet, notwitbstand ing the fact that it has repeatedly been shown that he is anything but g prophet. To our certain knowledge, none of bis political prophecies has oome true since those daily predic¬ tion* of Mr. Cleveland’s defeat which A the Sun was accustomed to reiterate •along in the fall of ’84. TALK AGE ON HOOD LIQUOR. The Rev. Dr. Talmage is in favor of pare, good liqar, and is down on the vile stuff usually drank over.bais. At a police court in New York he made thesepbservations: “Drunk and down was the charge made against most of tboBo who were put under scrutiny, ftnd most of us would run right oft into temperance harangues. Bat I do not believe that genuine brandy or whisky oi wine does the most of this. The most of these de ;V~ 5 have not gtroyedjnen and women had an honest drink for ten years. The liqnor sellers mix up all sorts of poison and call it ram. Genuine ram tabes one more gradually down, de sconding only an inch a mile, and de ceives him with the idea that he is not descending at all, until it is too late to bait, bnt the awful slnfl these wretches buy for three cents a glass diops them as by a stroke of apo plexy. They are as certainly drug god as though some ono had poured down their throat a dose of ‘Paris green.’ •‘While our temperanco men are lighting rum(and way God give them gpoedy victory) the offioers of the law should, with chemical experts, go through the liquor saloons of New York and show that not ono of them, from Central Park to the Battery, is selling what they pretend to soil, amt present the horrors of liquor adulter ation. When a few mornings ago I saw the people arraigned for drunk ness and noticed their burnt cheeks and cracked lips and bleared eyes, and consumed manhood and woman hood, I telt like crying Fire! Fire! In the swill that bad been fed them by the liquor sellers were mixed log wood, sugar of lead, yarrow, deadly nightshade, turpentine, copperas, oc colas indices, sulphuric acid, indigo, potash, cochineal, blue vitriol and other delicacies. “Wbat is tho use of the Board ot Health in any city if it allows such liquid infamies? Great outcry against oleomargarine in butter, and chicory iu coffee, but bow harmless these compared with this beverage of dyna mite! Tell these poor victims what you are going to give them when you fill their glasses on the counter of the groggery and they would decline the sanctification of body and soul!“ An Imperative Necessity.

Spalding County being entitled by the rotation rule to the Stale Sena tor from this district, the agitation of the subject which has been going on lor a week or so past is not premature. It i* well that it should como soon, in order that a candidate may bo se lected who is agreeable to the whole party. Especially does this seem to be the case in view of recent divis ions caused by the prohibition ques¬ tion, and Democratic leaders are obliged to be cautious to avoid swelling the contingent of the third party. Outside of this, however, it is true of this district, as ol all other dis tricts in the State, that an able and competent man should be chosen to deal with the important questions that will come up in the next General Assembly. So far we have heard but one name mentioned prominently in con nection with this position; and that is tho name of Judge John I. Hall. While Judge Hall has made no pub lie announcement that he is a candi date, yet bo has signified to b’s friends that he would be willing to accept the office if tendered him. That he would make an admirable repr“senta tive there can be no doubt. Ono of tho ablest and most prominent law¬ yers in tbe.State, with a thorough ac quaintance not only with State mea¬ sures, laws and policies, but with men, there would be none in the Senate who could outrank him. Ilis views have already been published, and are wise and conservative. He has not been a partisan either for or against prohibition and his declar ation that he is not in favor of chang ing the present status of that ques tion by legislative enactment should be satisfactory to the anti prohibi tionists, while it has already been endorsed by the former organ of the prohibitionists. will find better Where you a man fitted not only for the position but for tho situation! In four weeks of May the receipts Of cotton from our Southern plan¬ tations amount to 39,464 bales, against 24,095 bales, the average for that period of the two years last pre¬ ceding. There were 6,711,297 bales of the last crop already counted and sold at the end of last week, and if t he average additional supply of the last two years, 246,434 bales, comes forward by September, which ends the cotton year, the crop of 1887 yielded 6,957,731 bales; but if the present weekly excess holds through tho season it will be 7,105,591 bales. This, tho biggest crop of all, is the crop that the humbug Bureau of Agriculture estimated at 6,300,000 bales. Storms of many varieties raged over the country Sunday night and Mon day morniug, A waterspout that was more like a river from the sky than anything elso burst over a section of Nebraska, doing great damage. Un precedentecl rainfalls ate reported from Illinois. Hail fell in Iowa. An amatuer cylone swept over a portion of Ohio and West Virginia, unroof ing houses, carrying away fences and causing other destruction. Sev oral lives were lost. The Kentuckian who brings a heavy damage su>t for tho Joss of three inches of his hair, may not know it, but he is bulling the wig market. Hair is scarce and costly lux ury, and we are losing more of it every year. Tho man who has lost three inches of tiair should not make a noise and bring a lawsuit, bnt he he should quietly apply a little coal oil and hope for tho best. Sweet Opera Singer Strikes a High Note. Hearing that a member of of the t’arleton Opera Company, which delighted Chicago audiences with comic opera, held one-twen¬ tieth of ticket No. *>,114, w hich drew $50, 000 in the March drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery, thai Miss a Truvler Clara representative Wisdom was informed was the fortunate person.
