Slatlngton JVcics Editok Advocate: Tho moral .and re ligious element in tli Republican party, brought to It and raised up In It during tho time this party championed tho slavery question, Is still tho strength and hopo of tho party. The moral and more particu lar, the religious clement of all denomina tions, Irrespective of party, believe In and uphold tho prohibition of tho liquor traffic. On the principles Involved in tho question of tho prohibition of tho liquor traffic tho best people of both tho old parties aud tho third party aro a unit. They agree that tho traffic should and must bo prohibited; they dlsagrco only as to method. The third party prohibitionists believe in the enactment of prohibitory taios anil prohibition party back of these laics. Many people who beliovo In tho prohibi tion of tho liquor traffic claim that for tho present a prohibition party back of pro hlbltion laws Is Impossible, therefore not practical, and that what Is needed In practical politics" Is less turning of con ventions Into prayer meetings, etc; but that tho singing and praying should bo left to the ministers and mothers and wives and sisters, and giyo tho management of "prac tical politics" in tho hands of more skilful and less conscientious workers. If doc trines of this kind encourage men like B. Sigley, editor of tho Gazette, to at tack ministers of tlio Gospel, and premedi tated and deliberately attempt falsely, by Insinuation, to blacken the character of a good man, and mako It appear that ho spoke falsely In public, then It is tlmo that wo call a halt to "practical politics" and pray the moro earnestly for conscenfous workers in "practical politics." Whatever may bo said against tho practicability of the third party methods, it must ho admitted that for honesty of purposc,;ln- tegrlty and character, the advocates of this method aro of an exceptionally high character, and that Rev. J. S. Beyer is no exception. Ho is a minister of tho Gos pel In good standing in tho M, E. Church. Is this no recommendation To throw mud at such a man by a man like Sigley will not stick. Ic may drop whero Sig ley don't want It to drop. Docs tho editor of the Qazttte think that members of tho Methodist church aro so lost to all honor that they will meekly submit to his abuse? They lovo their church, they lovo their pastors, and many of them are third party men and two of their bishops. Then mem bers havo confidence In the honesty add Integrity of their pastors. They have con fidence In their piety. The word of lympathy and encouiagenient fitly spoken to their members has struck a responsive chord and endeavored them to the people. To attack such men Is to distroy con fidence In Republican "practical politics." Is it a fact that tho workers in tho Re publican party have no conscionco? Tho presence of such men as Sigley and Bob Iugersol. brewers and distillers among their workers makes it look yery much that way. If these men would retlro and go clsewhore, It would be a great relief and very much improve tho Republican party. The servlco of such men in tho party; tho activity of such conscienceless workers, reacts on the party. They drive better men out and mako work hard for good men who remain, ll'c would have no straddles but for tho prcsenco of such mcu in the party politics. Wo pre diet that tho work of such conscientious workers, if persisted .in, will react In tho party. It should react, It may react on tho county ticket, as a rebuke. It was dono "before, It may be dono again. Has tho candidacy of W. C. Weiss, accepted by lilm not so much as an endorsement of the third party but as rebuke been forgotten?

Straddlers aro always danger ous and in themselves havo a tendency to weaken confidence Mr. Mulharen, as a member of the legislature, Is expected aud undoubtly will voto to submit to the poople a prohibition amendment to wipo out tho business of his fellow candldato on the samo ticket, Dildine Snjdcr, hotel keeper at Parryvlllo. And how theso two men can stand on tho samo platform, and work together arm in arm, two jolly good fellows well met, Snyder votlnc for Mulhcran to clvo Mul licran an opportunity to help depreciate, Ills property ana distroy ms business is bo yond comprehension If art parties concern ed are honest, how can this be reconciled? win not tno uncalled for attack by tne uazetle on a minister of tlie Uospcl react on Snyder. will the temperance peoplo voto for Snyder; can they vole for Mulhcran If Snyder will voto for Mulharen, and jjuineran vote tor bnvder. Tbo arguments of the third party men had better bo met In a stralcht forward maulv wav. To abuse and slander tholr advocates is cowardly, and calls out opposition width otheiwlso would not appear.
