In Georgia and Florida they have a kind of local option, where prohibition i enforced by a direct vote of the peo ple of the county or parish. In Flori da this law( has been upheld by the Su preme court of that State. In about one half of the counties of Florida pro hibition is in force, where the beverage cannot be had for money or influence, the enterprise, will soon be made mani. I fest. Governor Sherman of Iowa, says that he does not believe any prohibitory legislation could be passed through the Legislature. He looked to see the wine and beer clause in the constitution repealed, and all liquors, as beverages put on the same footing. But strin gent measures which would effectually suppress the traffic, he did not believe could be passed. These admissions from the Governor, show that the late campaign was for naught, and that af ter all the vow that was raised nothing practicable had been, or would be ac complished in the way of prohibition.

At the J nne election approaches the bosses are busily engaged - organizing their forces and as the dial of time pastes orer the ace of the political horoscope the preconceived determina tion of the bosses to force Mitchell on the people of Oregon, is plainly seen through the lense. The old ring are determined to force the great bigamist on the people of ths Stat. Their pro giam bow is to nominate him for Con gress and by aid of the party last and the corrubtmg influence of money and she aid cf repeaters in the city of Port land, secure his election. This will en able him to triumphantly march di o:tly into the Senate, with an endorse? Cent of the voters of the State. There can be no doubt that this pro gram was settled on shortly after his failure to bo elected Stnato-, and at this tune the move is assuming vast proportions. M. C George, the present incumbent, stand no show for the nomination. Whilo ho has shown himself the willing iooi pi corporate monopolies, he is lack ing in force and ability and they have no further use for him. Mr. Mitchell with his known activity aud familiarity "with committees, is at this time of groat benefit fco the monopolies, and they will furnish enormous snms of money to secure his seat in Congress at this time, whoa the tendency of the en tire country is to regulate these gigan tic institutions. - Tho time is fast approaching when a Dmber of little country newspapers that jtave been secured for the purpose, mil commence bringing him before the people in a way to create a sentiment (n. his favor.
