' caqse I hardly know why but! am i u braid of new things and ahm - stick to the old ruts marked out by I our forefathers. It is a tribute of respect we owe to their memory-, id.sides Prohibition does npt pro- [ i Dibit, and / never did believe in half doing a thing. Of eoqr&a! whisky is an evil thing, and it I; had all there in the world, and • and all that Mill be on the banks! of t he Mississippi I would not lies-; date one moment about sweeping I it in ; but it is not there and never I will be, so that settles the matter with me. I am a Democrat, because I hard ly know why but nearly all well informed people aro Democrats, au.d as I never studied very much about politics and don't fully un derstand what is meant by the term Democracy I must depend on those whom I believe to be able to direct mo aright. Besides nay father has always voted Democratic and he is. top much confirmed in his opin ions to change at this late day, and it would not look well to see one house sc divided. I am a Republican, I can’t ex actly know why, but they have a majority pn their side and I always make it a point to be with the ma jority; and if every body would act in the same way there would be iess contention,. It is very clear to my mind since 1 studied the matter over that I am for the Blair Bill. You need not question me for I only heard one side of the question and I don’t think there could be any thing said on the other side to change my mind, so I am stead fast in my convictions. Besides I believe in taking all one can get lot the consequences be what they may. I am against the Blair Bill be cause I herrd some one say it was a ‘political dodge.” The part} was tpo busy to explain what they meant by that expression so I am in the dark some-what; but I haye the greatest confidence in their opinions and am willing to be guided by them. lam for High License l:*. reuse public opinion is incline a i: mat direction and a person is u. crank who would try to argue against public opinion. But should the scale turn on the other side I am not so obstinate as not to move with the currant. lam against High License; why shouldn’t I, when with Low License one can buy a bonnet or hat for half the price now paid. Since the aim of life is to eat, drink, dress and be merry, it behooves us to put down fhi» horrid law which so dist irbs domestic felicity. lam for Woman’s Rights. In the first piece women have been trodden under foot long enough and kept back in the kitchen toil ing for man. There are thous ands of women in our free America skimping themselves and econo mizing in ev my way so that their husbands may appear in company and look like other men; when she is able mentally to take his place even if it is to * o to Congress and help tc make laws. Now I believe it is time for a change to come, time for mon to don cook aprons and walk into the kitchen and cook, scrub and wash dishe ■ and let pc ir tired, over-worked wo men have a rest. Now don’t sirn ; per about strong minded women ; jif you had been cooped up in the ;kitchen all your life you would be i strong minded foe. hay a woman can’t cK-ke lawn ; wann van expect 'her to cook a dinner without "ow v.ood and have it ready jiyit a' the j time you in ay happen to 'v.int it, r I a -» aii. s*.

Who v ade it what it is? Did wo ' l -• Whq f fight, and suffered a.- • . ed and died that we the },eo piii of the U, 8. might be relieved from tqe oppression of Great Bri tain? Did women? Nay verily. This government then rightly be belongs to men they have earned if by great.sacrifice, and now have women a right to gfcj to the front and sav how it shall be govarened? Would it he right? Would it he just? Besides doing well is hard to be;;.'. The men arc getting on very well with government affairs; and I dare sav*should any weighty political question co,vie up where they think woman’s help would hi of any advantage to them, they will come up like men, and make their requests known ; at least they have never failed so far to show their faco whop anything was want ing. And womens brain will be sufficiently hardened puzzling over crazy ps ten-work to tackle almost anythin^. • ' • • ‘V Bill Arp says —and I am inclin to believe it for lie has studied considerably politics arid travel.d some—tiun women c one vote already and ha caiWjßk* rh'we is to < o&firm me Y, mvWic'f. I wouldn’t tell ev ry body you needn’t mention it, but I flunk wo men can afford to give men a little the advantage and then be on equal basis. And aa for the next Presidential election I can’t toil you now exactly where I stand, I haven’t heard father say : and v,nil tell you more about it iater.

Killian. “Steady emplyment and better wages!” Such was the promise, made the working me:i before the election by protect! in orators and monopoly hirelings. The ten thou sand men and boys thrown out of employment in the Pennsylvania coUeries, with starvation staring them in tho face, will now have am ple time for reflection upon the i emptiness of tin se promises and the deceit and hypocrisy of men which made them . Shut downs, reductions of wages, and strikes have been the order of the day since the party of protect ion was restored to power. No more fitting opportunity than the present for a study of the workings of our unjust and burdensome sys tem of taxation could possibly arise. Barely, the humbug of protection is on its last legs. The working men can bo deceived no longer. They bear the heaviest of burdens and should be the first to cry out against paying unnecessary war taxes in times of peace,—Colum bus Enquirer.
