Heme of Iho leaders' eu'tibtli sides in
Tuesday's battle give interesting views as
te the result. Mr. JolinSchaum,pirstdent
of Iho Licensed Dealers' 'association, 'te
bem was chlelly due the efficiency of the
organization against Iho prohibitory
amendment, said: '
' 'J'lie leading politicians of both parties
and the business men very generally fell
In Willi us, us well as man' residents of
the county at large. The farmers them
selves had been hi ought te leek upon the
adoption of the amendment as Involving a
less of invcnue te them. Our iclatieus
uith the agricultural class have always
been pleasant. The cst-puckct voters, te
our great surprise, were largely with us,
although they had generally been counted
en the ether side, lu this city u large or er or
centage of tlie vete for prohibition was
cast by habitual drinkers. There twis no
iMityissiieauy where In this city or count v.
1 traveled the county for six ecks, and
we succeeded in forming a most efficient
organization. In every district we were
represented by a llepublican and a Demo
crat, generally active party workers, and
tliey weiked together most harmoniously."
Luther S. KaulVmau, chairman of the
icgular Prohibition county committee, but
who was net in perfect accord throughout
the campaign with the amendment
people, said: "I am net disappointed
jicrseually, because I have for seme tlme
seen that the jKilltlcal machines of both'
paities were openly and actively opposing
tlie adoption of the amendment. New, il
is iiatent te oterybedy that this defeat can
be largely charged te the opposition of the
Ileiublicau machine, and the indignation
of the geed people of Pennsylvania will
be felt against the Itepuhlican patty at the
ballet-box In the coming fall. I predict
that the results of yesterday's work will
bring about tlie greatest political revolu
tion in Pennsylvania that lias taken plaie
in forty years. In less than ten years we
shall have prohibition en our statute books,
In ought about by a political party com
mitted te that policy and pledged te secure
its enactment and enforcement."
W. V. lleuscl, cx-ch'iirmau of the Dem

Debauching the Ballet.
Dr. Oeorge K. Heed, president of Dickin Dickin
eon college, preached a sermon in Harris
burg, Pa., Sunday, which has somewhat
exercised the politicians in that vicinity.
It was substantially in line with Bishop
I'etter's uiomerable centennial address.
President Heed's theme was the " Perils of
Indillcrentism." Concerning the duty of
voting he said that hundreds or men held
themselves aloof from primaries and want
caucuses, from all Uie tnachlne work of
politics, as it is allied, simply because they
care net for tliese things. Thoreare theso
who refuse te vote ter candidates or for
measures en the ground that in tliese
things they have no interest.
He next proceeded te discuss the Indif
ference of American citizens in the prcs prcs
euce of efforts at the ballet box by which
the will the people Is suppressed. Ite called
attention te the bribery practiced lu the
purchase or votes and te the fact that In all
states thore Is a " floating vote," se called,
which is annually un for sale, lie directed
particular attention te ene state, en the au
thority of a leading politic i in, w he asserted
mai incre were irein leu te illlecn thou
sand votes always in the market thcre te
be thrown en ene side or the ether accord
ing te the extent of the boedlo In the hands
of the various parties. Theso facts, he
said, no one denies. Political leaders un
hlushlnglv admit them, and still the people
remain silent under this gigantic wrong.
Hardly a voice is lifted in pietcst.
' "J belong," continued Dr. Heed, "te a
great political party. I wish it te triumph,
because in general I believe in its princi
ples. Hut I say unhesitatingly that i would
rather a thousand times that the party te
(Which I belong should be defeated at the
polls year after year than te see it go into
power through dishonerablo means."

the blowing out of a match, both te typify
the solemnity of the oath, were fcatuics of
the occasion. The Chinaman had been
called by the defense In ihe case of Ix-e
Ycclc, Ie Linn, Lev Dick and Lee Wall,
all charged with keeping a tan-fan gam
bling house. Chung Sey was the llrst w li
nes. Sey said he belonged te a society for the
suppression of gambling. Sey swere Unit
he hud neither a certlllcate of membership
nor a book of rules, but he had seen the
latter. Lawyer Kneass asked the witness
If he was a member of the Hip Seng Teng.
".'e," answered the Mongolian. "Bad

"What are the Hip Seng Tongs T"
"A highbinder society, llrst started In

A book was offered by Iho dofense, pur
IHirtiug te be ene giving the by-laws and
regulations of Se's society. Sey indig
nantly stated the book was a mero " black
mailing scheme" and did net belong te the
society. Here Ling Yeu, ene of Iho spec
tators, leaped te his feet and yelled lu
Chinese, ''You'd better tell the truth."
Alter the confusion had subsided a match
was held near Sey's nostrils, and hu sud
denly snulled it. Previously Sey had
taken nil oath by bringing an iron bar
down upon a saucer and exclaiming; " If
1 should tell a lie in my etldcuce In this
cae may 1 die as this plate Is broken."
