Taking this brief statement for a text, the south ern pa iter* arc pitching Into tho alleged author of it at a lively rate. Potrlbly nil thin In premature. The address has not been published. We have not even a reliable synopsis of it. Mr. Cable H too mniblc a man to dream of forcing such a thing a* social (quality, ftocial distinction* separate not ouly races, but d/flcrent chimes and circle*. The matter cannot be changed by leglHhitiou. Huinnu law* are utterly Inoperative when applied to the social status of antagonistic am! uncongenial (IflUsc*.

Men who believe In the social equality foolishness arc simply cranks, nothing more. Ir Brother Blaine bud bad more to do with Hot Hprjpys and Its* with Little Rock lie would proba bly be u purer man than lie i*. Tin: old holy Lockwood has her share of trouble In this phenomenal campaign. She h by no mein* sure of tlu support of her own aex and tho mile hollo c ry In woman???s rights. The difficulty with old lady lad wood 4s that she ha* a sneaking prejudice fu furor of tho divided isklrt. Now there are million# of women wh fcnvo no use for till* bifurcated article (i w i tiring nopartl. They very properly regard ft ns a base imltatloii of the clumsy hnbiliinenti worn by the horrid men, and they will have none of it. In thi* embarrassing situation it has oc curred to old lady Lockwood that tho best thing to do Is to temporize. Hho therefore makes the point that tho divided skirl 1* In no rente a uafiouai question. It i* purely n local a flair, and so far a* till* campaign is con cerned slie proposes to dodge it. This pusillan imous polic y will pot work. A similar line of conduit on tho part of Mr. Blaiuo ha* brought Mm Into contempt, audit will biiug to grief the candidate of tho wroman???s national equal right* pwty. t Will I* the voto for Ht., John will probably bo_a small cue, it Is believed by many that the prohi bition Issue will soon divide national party lines. It is argued that the liquor question is not a local issue. If It is, why cannot each household settle It for itself T Let the experiment bo tried and it will be found lliat the minority of a prohibition household will visit another household whore the drinkers arc In |ho majority and get drunk with them. Try local option, nml what then? One town votes ngul- st liquor mid the next towu vote* for It. 1???eople lu thu first town who want liquor go to the second town and get It., Hometime* they carry It homo lit a Jug and proceed to paint the ir prohibition town red. Thou some earnest reformers rise and pronounce local option a fail ure. The legislature yields to the pre??$urc and passe* a general law ruling liquor out of state. Presently It I* ??? discovered that men are gettlug drunk, and the rich continue to have wine on their table*. The tcni)H'rance reformer# look around and see that the adjolniug stale 1* a whisky state aud 1* shipping liquor to its prohibition neighbor*. Tearly, tills won???t do. The federal authorities appealed to, and a prohibitory amendment to constitution of tho United .Stile# 1* called for as the only means of making prohibition cttectu.il. Tht* i?? what the prohibitionist* are now working for, and this makes prohibition a national l**uo. That Ibis policy Is rnlculnted to Injure the etu <o of gen uine temperance cannot lie doubted by thuja who know anything of human nature. Morality mu not legislated Into a man, and a man???# thirst e-innot be taken uw ay from him by a nm??tltut!onal amend ment. The follower# of HI. John would do well to sillily Georgia method* and Imitate them. lu thi* ???rvatlvc, liberty loving state we have dealt with the liquor question In n truly democratic way. Who e n locality wanted t > try the locat op tion plan the will of thu people ha* been allowed prevail, and where high license wo* favored, that plan has been given a trial. Wo have had no lUsnde," no "erase,??? but have experimented quietly und with a proper consideration for the )hi.*oua] right# a improperly littered* lurolr- d. It may be too early to predict tho outcome, but if any chuuge takes place in our temperanoe mctheil.* it is probable that the local option sys tem will give way to high license. This latter ???y??fem may be made virtually prohibitory, or it may re arranged so as to greatly uimini*h the number of drinking saloons, without caustug the -e a dollar of revenue.
