I want a record made of thed sfussion of this ques tion in Oregon, so that when we shall have voted the amendment down (as I hope wo will) the peo ple of Maine may know that we did it with deliberate purpose and after due consideration not from mere blind prejudice against tein Iterance legislation. There are fundamental grounds on which all unite. I am an old surveyor, and in making a survey in any field uiy first care is to find the starting comer. In our conn try we have a great patty which we can agree to be a hundred years old the democratic party a paity w hich has powerful convictions and sets forth claims to the performance of many important sl rvices to the country. We have another great ptity tho republican a third as old as the other. Their differences al out w here the stake should be set in tho survey have cotrt much, but have been settled. When we go back on the lines of survey, we find a point where the tvva parties come together on common ground where tho democrat and reitubli - can meet and shake hands. If we bgrs. It continued still. Then . "fast increasing evilof intemper j,ljwv l.utljl th liies ti uipri'iJgPi -w3 (cut-. of3& iheu aiif.. I hopc the pt-tple will get take the bearings from the witness ji.le "living' of the non-conformist rid of th s fustian. They say tree and dig down where the lines converge we shall find the corner the rock planted by the fathers of tho republic. We can always make a correct stmt here for our survey. That corner is the declaration that tho citizen is capable of self govern ment. To be a sovereign people wo must accept this principle. For ages kings, hierarchs, despots have denied the principle and have based on their denial the divine right of kings and the authority of ecclesiat lical potentates. When we abandon this we give up the fundamental principles of our gov ernment. If man is inc pable of self government, there can be no republic, and the strongest man can gather and rule, as many us he can handle. Individual sovereignty must le exercised in o der to exist in foree, and it must have opportunities for cxercis'. Tho prohibitionists would settle a man so low in the scale of sovereign citizenship that they would take away f.om him even the right to refuse to dr,ink.1 They would tako iiway the oppor tunity to exercise his manhood and develop his character. Tho democratic and republican parties are together at tho great corner stone of our govern meiit, but there is another great party that is spreading and is already, os wide as the republic. I don't want to abuse it. I am with it in its " pur poses for good, but at war with its methods, it is called the national reform party, and it wants to re-, model the constitution of tho Unit ed States upon un ecclesiastical plan. Its great left wing is the Women's Christian Temperance Union active, persistent, powerful. Its right wing is called tho Great Prohi organization. It is organiz ed in throe fourths of the states and is spreading its literature broadcast over the land. It is speaking fiom thoiiHiinds of pulpits every week. Their corner stake or Btaiting point means that the citizen is not capa- bin of self-government.

' ities of the dominant church, and, alj feared Heaven- 'as a place of dismal weeping and wailing through time everlasting, in contemplation of the sins of the ilesh during the probationary years of life on earth. Similarly in Vermont, to live in ac cordance with the statute law, one is perplexed to determine whether a career of sin is not preferable to . strict observance of law. Divorce is a logical consequence of this rigid code. Human nature in it humors is like the senses and their powers. Destroy the sight and tho other senses become keener, the fac ulties aro strengthened and 'sharp ened. A leg or arm is taken, and into the remaining limb there come an added power, as in recompense. Similarly with the humors of tho body. They can be likened to the Lernean hydra of many heads. Cut off one head, and another ap p ared in its stead. Suppress one humor, another breaks forth ; and the latter may be more . harmful than the one it supplants.. If the nature w hich requires liquor is pro hibited from it a diversion is made from it to some other humor which can be gratified. It may rt3ne the survival of the fittest: it ia more the suppression ,of the laet viciou tin devi 1 pment of the rnost immoral. In a state whose popu lation is made up as that of Ver mont', with a large preponderance of the female sex, the suppression, of the humor for liquor is apt to lead to the indulgence more to b shunned, and divorces are common in communities in which the pas sions have more temptation and. greater license. Divorce is the fruit of ill-considered marriage or of vic ious inclinatioa after marriage. It is the result of passion breaking loose f.om love, and violating the most sacred of obligations. Divor ces causo deeper pain and more grievous wrong, and shame and bit ter regrets to children, than a drunken parent. The sin of in ebriation in the father often serves as the example to the sou, and causes him to lifelong abstinence from intoxicants. But looseness in the married life, to its sacred obli gations, begets in the household a disregard of that sanctity which hedges matrimony, and the bad ex ample of parents contaminates the natures of the children. Divorce may be as the cutting of the Goru inn knot, but the contaminated . blood has descended to course through the veins of progeny, and its poison will rankle and ul timately destroy. Lives are blas ted and community is smirched and polluted. If this be one of the consequences of prohibition in Ver mont, tho people of Oregon do not want it. It is bartering virtue for a questionable quality. "Goo I gracious!" exclaimed a lady visitor to the sporting editor'a room, as." with terror in her eyes, she mad a dart for -the door, "is there murder going on outside?" "Be calm, madam," said the sporting editor,' with s 6mile, "it is , nothing. It is only the religious editor swearing ut his proofs." Boston Courier.
