By some hook j or crook the editor h is got hoid of j enough type to set up both reading j mutter and advertisement, ami last i week he threw away the carpet tacks 1 horseshoe nails and buttonhooks which have been doing duty for the I last year in his advertising coluuius i This is a step ahead, and now if he j will get some real ink, use a glue rm-1 ler to put it on and steal his editor!- I als from the St,. Louis instead ot the Denver papers t here is no rep sun why he cant make a go of it. Sam Colfax of the Turkey Bend Boomer is promising his subscribers a ripping good paper after his new press arrives Yes, Sam nor only needs a new press, but a new head on bis shoulders. We dont know where or when he learned the English language but what he is got of it is peculiar to himself. Such trifling things as 1 orthography, grammar, punctua 1 tion.etc ,dont worry Sam. He’ll never have an income of over $7 per week out of a news pa per,but as that is $2 per week more than he could earn at anything else he d better stick. The Turkey Bend people like Sam because he got two eastern men to invest $5 apiece in real es tate and boom the town, and as i not one iu ten of his subscibers knows how to spell ‘cit‘*lhey have > no fault to find with his newspa- ■ per. The Little Valley Star reached i us with a new herd last week. The • one it h»s used for the past two ; years was cut off the end of a saw ’ log, while the nt wine his I. mu carvedout of a plank. It is an improvement, however, ■ and we are pleased to chronicle , the fact. When we were over at Little Valley a few weeks ago, Mr. John ( eon, the editor and proprietor of The Star, had just purchased an acre of ground to establish a pri vate graveyard, and he assured us that he had at least six victims marked down for slaughter. On that same day, an hour after we left, a man entered his office with only a club for a weapon and drove Mr. Johnson under the edi r torial table and made him beg for his life. He may pick up, however, aud I The Star may yet become the lead . ing family paper of the world, as he predicts. We shall at least say I nothing to discourage him. The Rocky River Journal of last w'eek referred to us on its alleged editorial page as a “viper,” “cow ard,” “office seeker,” “villian” and several other things. The Journal is a four page weekly pa per published by a man named Otis. As most <>f its issues have been printed on a cheese press, with molasses and lampblack as a sub stitute for ink, we have never been able to read except an occasions , line here and there. Some two years ago Mr. Otis was driven out of New Mexico into ( Utah. They shot him out of Utah | into Montana, and the Montana , people kept him hanging at the , end of a rope until he agreed to leave for Arizona. We had something to say about these things a few weeks ago, not knowing thut this Otis was the Otis ref- rred ti and cf course he feels like getting even. Well, we are not saying tnytlung. Sons day we shall meet Mr. Otis and take him by the ear and d< m uid an apology, but there is no hurry about it. lhe Gila Ki ver Chronicle resutucc publication last week a suspen sion of foui weeks.

Prohibitionists are iu no wise] pessimistic, for we believe there is no power iu eiMth or hell—and both are combined in this traffic — that can prevent the ultimate abolition of lhe saitain curie ttvd the upward progress of the human rac- 1 , but we believe at lhe same time that this advancement may come by the proper conduct of hu man iiistrumentMiilie- through the peaceable fruits of riuhtwou-- ness; otherwise it will' come through Heaven’s inexorable law, the wrath and wickedness of man beinx made to praise Him Amer ica's great poet utters this tiue philosophy : ‘•But if man before his duty listless stands, Era long the Great Avenger takes the work from ont his hands.” Recent church utterance against the liquor traffic, and against the complicity of license-party voters in its sin and crime, tire most out spoken and emphatic. Everywhere the Church seems to be coming up to the position that the man who fails to vote against the sin of le galized drunkard-making is equal ly guilty with the drunkard-mak er. The General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church, in session last month, adopted the sollowing: “Resolved: 1. That we regard the liquor traffic as the overshad owing curse of this nation: an enemy to the peace, purity and prosperity of the home, the Church and the State. To license this traffic is a sin against God and a crime against humanity. Being morally wrong it can never be made legally right. ‘For the Son of God was manifested’ not to reg ulate ‘but to destroy the works of the Devil.’ In this connection we lament the fact that one of our State enjoying the benefit of Pro hibition has taken a backward step, mid its legislature has so far forgotten the dignity of law as to bargain for the violation of its own statute. We believe that the time has fully come when Chris tians should cease to he indiffer ent, and should unite their efforts, regardless of previous party affilia tions, for its complete suppres sion. “2. That in our judgement no Christian can be held innocent of wrong-doing who, when a moral question is at issue, so votes as to be counted against the side of righteousness.” The Colorado M. E. Conference at its late session adopted this resolu tion: “Resolved, That the Colorado Con. ference of the M. E. Church pro nounces it a sin for any Christian man or woman to endorse, by their ballot or otherwise, any man or party that favors the licensing of this traffic among meu. ’ STRONG WORDS FROM BAPTISTS, Th J Barnetable, Mass , Baptist Association passed this resclution un • -FPLAININC MILL* We Mean Business Call and Gret On • before Buying, We are Selling Ges SASH, DOORS AXI) IHJADs Flooring, Ceiling, Moulding, Ballusters and Brackets A_t Bottcrn Prif Oo HUME & PERKINS animom lv at their annual session’ i June 20 :.ind 21, nt Masphee , Mass ResolvedJ That the Word of God alike condemnsdrunk'irdsand drunk iird-tnaking; that as Christians and Baptists we are impressed to utter our earnest convictions that he who gives his influence an his votes for men an I'parties who sustain license, will not hold him guiltless.” REFORMED EPISCOPALIANS. The General Council < f the Re formed Episcopal Cliurcb, lately con vened in Christ Church, Chicago, un anitnously reaffirms 1 its standing res- i olu ion relative to the liquor traffic,as ; follows: bigb or low or the Gothenburg system of license, or the laws of the State ' which permit the manufacture of New • England i-mn, which is sent to Africa , and other foreign yarts, subverting Christian missions, or any measure i which legalizes this atrocious liquor • traffic, is sinning against Jehovah, wh “RESOLVEd:I.That all Christian men and women should, both by precept and example, uphold the cause of temperance, and do id 1 iu their o iwer to suppress the liquor traffic. “2. That no Christian can consis tently engage in this traffic, or profit by it, either by easing or letting the i building in which to carry it on, or i otherwise. ‘•3.

Ihe New England Christian con vention in June declared; Concerning the liquor traffic of our country, which is such it mighty foe to our Christian work, which is so thoroughly organized, and exert so mighty a political power, we would express our unqualified and unalter able opposition, and would most ear netsly exhort our poo pie to use all honorable means for its suppression • to give no aid to compromise mens ures under whatever captivating title, and to give no support, by voice or vote to men or measures which do not seek the enforcement of the prin ciplcs ot total abstinence for the in individual, aud Prohibition for the State. u BEAT EVILS OF THE TI.uES.
