Bro. I). M. Doty, of Dalian, in
a communication to the JVurAtm
I'royrcm last week, says that the
Prohibition party is the second
party, not the third paity. The
editor of the same paper, in the
same Issue, says that the Prohibi
tion party isthe third parly. Verily
they do not speak the same language,
and when they call for brick.they
take them mortar.
The .unpardonable stupidity
evinced by the Portland Dispatch a
few days since in criticising the
TelegranCt sensational article about
the "Cochnuie-Knight" affair,
while the columns of the DispaH
were reeking with the "Cot win"
scandal at .Salem at the same time,
was more than ordinary credulity
Hhould have imposed upon it. The

The story that Speaker Crisp
came of a family of actors recalls
the fact that pretty Minnie Crisp,
the actress, who died at Helena,
Mont., on Christmas day, 1879, was
the speaker's niece. The Helena
Jndqwndvd says: Henry Crisp
was a famous theatrical manager
in his day. Ho had four children,
the present speaker, Henry Crisp
jr., now dead, and two daughters,
Jessie and Celia. Jessie's daughter
played under the name of Minnie
Crisp, and was tho wife of manager
French, now of the Park theater in
Portland. Her mother is still
alive. She played ingenue parts
In Sawtell's old stock company,
a member of which was Harry
Fiinery, now in Helena with his
his wife, Katie Putnam. He
remembers Minnie Crisp as an
actress of great promise and a
woman of charming personability.
8he was very popular with players
and public alike. She was but
twenty four years old at her death.
A couple of weeks since the pro
hibition club at, Monmouth was
addressed by l!ev. Mr. Bunnell,
and he began his remark iu these
words;
In the United States of America

ties.' llrottt ago distmgulslu'H the

our political enemies' admit our
claim to great Ideas, In fact, they
claim that our hit as tuts so trail'
soondeidly great that we never can

We presume that Mr. Bonnet)
refers to the Democrat to party us
the oue of "great ago," and in thic
he is certainly right, for the doe
it it e enunciite.l Uvday by .that
party began iu the house of J ulius
CVcsar. It was there that, the
Kaipt r r's daughter suggested
division of ruling power, and it
was then that the first triumvirate
was formed and absolute monarchy

civilisation, a republican form ol
government, with its comer stone.
Democracy. A woman's brain
and heart evolved the great idea
of the Democratic party, and hence
no oue can iruinsny our claim ol
Mug ancient and right. That the
Republican party is one of "great
achievements'' we will not deny,
But that the Prohibition party h
one of "grv.it ideas'' is a projHwl
lion which needs demonstration
Anidea'' may be practical or im
practical. An idea, or notion, as
.Sir William Hamilton calls it,
may le evolve! from tho mind,
or originate with circumstances;
and yet it must bear the test ol
logic, and depend upon testimony
for Its entertainment by reasoning
people. An idea may require but
little testimony fur its ex 1st cure,
when provoked almost wholly by
prejudice. Prejudice, as a distort
cd condition of the mind, forming
au opinion "without duo examina
tion, a leaning to one side of a (tin's
tion from other considerations than
those belonging to it," lends to
grave errors, and it is not ahvay
e!l to arrogate to oneself the pes
session of all the "great ideas'
which may be enjoyed by the pee
pie at large, csj wially so hen
there are so few in America who
have braius enough to hold these
"great ideas," nd so many "good

Now out of 401, I'M votes east in

Wo all believe in the same object,

possible that we have lost to some

would have tho problem nearer
solved than it is to-day.
Now if Uro. Uonnell will give us
some concrete, ellective measure
for the suppression of whisky
drinking, we shall lly to it as the
steel to the magnet. Wo must not
dual in platitudes; we must have
something that will stick. We
want to bo understood. We do
not believe that the Prohibition
party will ever effect tho destruc
tion of the whisky traffic und
whisky driuking. Prohibition is
one thing and the prohibition
party, as a political integer, is
quite another. thing. Solid facts,
not Utopian generalities, uro what
wo want. -
Wis are pleased to say that every
new enterprise that has been advo
cated by the Wkht Bidk,' has
started, and you can rest assured
that we shall not try to raise a
wild-cat boom about impossible or
improbable undertakings, either
