IVOULD THE ELECTION OF STJOHN I
HELP PROIIIBITION?
As the campaign draws to a close and
there is unmistakable evidence that St.
John and Daniel, the Prohibition candi-
dam‘will receive a large vote, efforts
are V' g made to dissuade men from
casting t eir ballots for them, and the
argument is advanced that a President
elected on the Prohibition issue could
not help the cause of Prohibition. Two
documents have becri circulatod in this
city to induce thibitionists to vote the
Republican ticket, onc entitled “Reflec-
tiom on the Prohibition Banner,“ the
rub!!! “Shall we Vote for St. John?" The
first is ably satirized by “Rev. Bonanza
U. Spike” in another column, therefore
this article will be devoted to the stall.L
merits and arguments in the second.
The first point made is that the Presi-
dent has no power, because the liquor
traffic is, under the Constitution of the
United States. left exclusively to tho
States. and therefore. if the President
and every member of both houses of
Congress were opposed to the liquor
traffic, they would be powerless to shot
one grog shop door or releive one man
from the snares of inteiiiperance iii any
State in the Union. This is true. and
yet it is misleading and deceptive. for
while the President could not eiiacta
law for the suppression of the liquor
traflic. a President elected on the Prohi—
bition issue could and would exercise a
very decided influence thereon.
Suppose St. John were elected. It
would, especially at this time when party
lines are drawn as closely as laissible. be
proof positive that a riiajority or a very
large minority of the pcoplc favored Pro~
hibition. Elected on such an issue he
certainly would recommend to Congress
the subniisit‘ion to the people of an
amendment to lhet‘onstitution prohibit
ing the liquor trailic. Then the respon-
sibility Would be upon Congress. The
Constitution providl's for its aniondnicnf
as follows:
Thorough-an u lll'll\’\ \‘I lRtirllllnls of bulb llouscs
shall dlv‘m if iilxa-sxary, ~~lur|l propane Amendments
to the t‘onsliluuon. \ililt‘li shall be valid to all or
tents and pllflltuk‘i llF lh‘tl'li “I Illt‘ (‘tinfltlllllltlll
when ratified by the li‘L'l-lflllllt“ of thru- fourlhs of
the several stall-s.
The vote necessary to elect St. John
would be a virtual appeal to Congress to
submit the question to the people. Is it
unreasonable to suppose that Congress
would heed that appeal. and pass the
necessary enactment to permit the pow
pie to vote upon the question. Congress
men would not be asked to commit
themselves for or against the amend-
ment, but simply to afford the people
opportunity to give expression to tho"
will in relation to the matter. \Vc doubt
if any congressman would defy such an
appeal. and if he did he would at the
first opportunity be relegated to private
life, for the people are jealous of their
rights, and would rebuke such arrogance
on the part of their representatives.
Taking it for granted that Congress
would submit the questionto the people.
at the next state election cvery represen-
tative would be chosen upon the Prohi~
bition issue. and thus theqnestion would
come before the whole country at sub-
stantially the same time. The line would
then be distinctly drawn, and men
would have to \‘bte for or against the
tramc, or dodge the issue by not voting
at alb Thus, in three years at the
longest would be brought about what it
ould take, at the present rate of pro-
.‘ess. an eternity to accomplish by what
is termed the state or local method.
The only objection left is that perhaps
the required vote of the legislatures of
three-fourths of the states could not be
secured for the amendment. There is a
possibility of this, but it is hardly proba-
ble. With all the agitation that has
been going on in the country for years,
with the general admission that the
liquor traffic. is the greatest evil of the
age. it is but fair to claim there is good
sense and honest christian sentiment
enough in the country to elect the neces-
ml'y number of legislators in the requi~
site number of states to prohibit the
liquor traffic, which Senator Platt says
will overthrow our republican form of
government unless it shall cease orbe
materially diminished. Men who be-
lieve the traffic wrong and prohibition
right, but who under present circum-
stances doubt the advisability of voting
for St. John because they fear their vote
will be thrown away. would under the
enadltiom herein ret forth have no hesi-
htion in voting for P‘rohibition, and. as
Vatisast two out of three declare fhern~
.lv' in favor of Prohibition. the suc-
"‘ tuba-cred. We therefore hold that
item of St. John would he the

‘1» document states that the Demo-
cratic party has invariably been in favor
of free rum and against prohibition. An
assertion absolutely false. Practically
both parties favor license. In North
Carolina. and in all the other southern
states the Pruhibiticniats are or have
been Democrats, and in no northern
state have Republicans gone farther than
in a few instances to favor the submis~
sion of the question to the people. In
fact the' last Republican National Con-
vention ignored and repudiated the
question, its candidate for President
dodged-it as a state issue, its press and
public men declare that the party is not
committed to Prohibition. In short they
are bidding for the liquor vote, as the
conduct of their candidates and docu~
merits sent out from Republican head-
quarters for the use of the Republican
press plainly show, from one of which
we quote the following:
4"Among the qurstions invoked in the prwcnt
national canvass there is one which especially ap~
pals to all manufacturers. and that is the question
of protection of American industries against ruinous
fun-inn competition. The prosperity of all our great
manufacture: is confcsrcdly due to the policy of
protection. This is esptv-ially the fact as to the
brewery business. No brewer who believes that
self-protection is a primary duty can afford to vote
with the party of free trade.“
The document further says that third
party movements always fail. To refute
this we quote from another document:
“In all moral reforms. \\licrc two political parties
arc allicd to and connected with any cvil thc pcoplc
dcsrrc to be rid of. (I (Mn! party is the only force
that ran thoroughly accomplish the work, bcvausa-
ucithcr of the ofhorpartitw- “Ill act in the matter
until [UM to do so by public opinion. and public
opinion can he made mon- rcariily by ballots than
in any other way.“
“To prm c the success of this third lmty. we point
to history. and demonstrate our theories by analogy,
Theanfielavery people were like the rhildnur of
Israel, forty years in the wilderness (from Is!“ to

but \otlng for it do! both parties were then allied to

The document refers to the tariff bug
bear and makes the false statement that
the Democratic party is for free trade.
and that a vote for St. John (presuming
that all Prohibitionists would vote for
Blaine if St. John were not in the field)
is virtually a vote for Cleveland and free
trade. Most of the I'niliibilionists who
were formerly Republicans feel about
the Republican part y as Rev. .I. W. Lana
ton expressed it in the toast, “(loll bless
it for what it has been and dissolve it for
what it is." They will vote for a princi-
ple and the men who represent it. re
gardless of all the outcry about throw-
ing votes away. They will make them
tell this time. Until it became certain
that they vvould vote as they talked lllt‘
the Prohibitionists were ignored. They
have been deceived heretofore by Repub‘
lican party promisr s. They now propose
to make themselves of as much im-
portance in politics as the distilleis,
brewers and liquor sellers. They not
only propose to be heard. but to be felt.
They will vote for St. John to elect him.
Whoever may be defeated thereby is of
no consequence to them. They hope to
drfeat all other candidates, but do not
expect to, and whoever may be elected
they will score a grand victory for some—
thing of more importance than the elec—
tion of any man—a sound principle that
cannot fail of final endorsement in this
country.
The most deceptive thing in the docu-
ment is the statement that St. John him—
self did not think a third party move
ment the best and that Miss \Villard is
not in favor of a third party movement.
Miss Willard, Nov. 24th, in Brooklyn, at
a St. John ratification meeting said: "To
carry this movement (Prohibition) out
there must be an organised. concentrated
power, and that power is a party. There
is so much that is bad now attached to
the name “party“ that people forget
what a magnificent thing partisanship is
when it is on a basis of loyalty to that
principle which the party embodies.“
She is and has been one of the most ear-
nest laborers for the success of the Pro-
hibition party. Before the assembling
of the Pittsburg convention, and when
asked if he would accept the nomination
of the Prohibition party, St. John wrote:
“I am unconditionally for a third party,
and shall earnestly support the nominees
of the Pittsburg convention.” He is
true to his word, and has since declared,
in answer to the appeal of a new tem-
perance society, signed by the Republi-
can presidential elector-at-large of this
state, to retire in favor of Blaine,that he
will never do so so long as there remains
a licensed grog shop in the United States.
Temperance voters will stand by their
candidate this time.

“\\'e'nro now at the close of Scptcun
her, just where \veuught to be :it the
close of October," said a leading lllftlllh
facturcr lately: “that is to say we have
no orders ahead, whereas, to keep a shop
in good running order. it should liavo at
least two \vct-ks' \vork ahead all the
time."
Such a state of affairs. while pleasant
and profitablo for the retailer, is much
the reverse for iiiaiziifaclurcrs. In tho
case of the former it enables him to run
very close to the wind. ordering from
hand to mouth as his sales demand. The
whole frarlo hlua been draggy and slow,
and bids fair to I‘t‘llllllll to until late in
the fall: at the sumo time it is more than
probable that vvliori books are closed at
the end of the season it will be found
that an average busincss has been trans»
acti‘tl.
City trade is very flat indeed, with no
possible prospcct of a rush now that the
season is so far advanced. The Iilllt‘f~
ence belwvcn the present season and that
of a year ago is very marked. as then it
was iliiimssililc to deliver hats ra'iidly
enough. A disagreeable featureoi the
present dullni-ss is the tendency upon the
part of retailers to be finical and un—
reasonably particular about every detail
of their hats. expecting wrfection where
perfection is not prism do and finding
fault. with goods that in a rush of trade
would be moved off without a murmur
with urgent orders for more just like
them.
All agree. however, that the present
.indications are hopeful signs for the
future, and that there is not the lermf
danger of dealers being overstocked. as
has been the case in provious seasons.
To those who can stand it this state of
affairs is likely to turn out a blessing. as
it keeps stocks clean and in good coudi~
tion. “'e hope that everybody can
stand it and will be in good shape to
take advantage of the turn of the tide
when it comes—Hatter and Farrier.
American Oysters iii the lhtltic.
{Prom anurv (London. 'l
lluring the last fifty years several at-
tempts have been made to form oyster
banks in the Baltic. The first attempt
Was made about forty years ago, when a
t antity of European oysters were laid
own. but it roved a failure. and the
oysters soon ied. In recent years, how~
ever, experiments have been made with
the American oyster (081ml t‘r‘rgiairmul.
which. according to the researches of
Professor Mobius is a different variety of
the European. The idea of laying down
American oysters in the Little Belt was
due to Mr. Meyer, an engineer of Ilad-
ersleben, who formed a-company for the
purpose of carrying it out. to which the
russian government granted a ooncee~
ion for forty years to form oyster banks
up to latitude 55° N. In the autuiini of
1879 Mr. Meyer went back to the United
States. whence he brought back to Bad—
ersleben a million and a half small and
half a million large oysters, which were
laid down in ten different places from
the Danish frontier to the southern part
of the Ala sound. Recent examinations
of these spots have shown varying results
In some there are only a few oysters left
and in others considerable quantities
Where seaweed is verv plentiful the
oysters have died. The t result was
found on the southeast coast of Ala. Dur
ing the present summer fresh attempts
at oyster~haiching are to be made in
these rte, and the German Fishery as.
sociat on has ranted Professor Mo-
_bius a sum 0 about fifty pounds
toward expenses. On the west coast of
Norway, too, strenuous efforts have been
made in recent are to improve the
oystery fisheries t ere, which were for-
Lrnerly very important. Several opmfinies
have beenfornied for acquiringold ate
and restocking them. - In some places
