"Fair Plat'" cornea hack at us
this week, claiming that we put
! misleading Leadlines over his ar
ticle in our last issue. and denies
t!? at he originated the impression
that lite HaskeiUre?. negroes awl j
liqaor dealers wiil be allied logeth-j
* er. What we objected to, was t iie ?
?evident effort to class ail the oj>- 1
ponents of the bill together in, as;
' we stated, "an undesirable alli-1
' ance." No matter what* uFair>
Play11 may say his in\ention was,
the fact remain?, as is cleanly]
proven by the fallowing extract i
? from his last week's article:
**Thcy (the liquor dealer?) wIU appeal {
tu the ;:egro. i{ need be, to aid them in !
^?curing political power to regain their j
vbiskey traffic. Cfeoatrse they will sup- J
port the* Haskell fiction, who eppjsed
prohibition as well a* the I fi-* j>t-:ia.ar\.
l:'.w. If the Dispensary Jaw work.-? satis
factorily, then the co-ali.ron of h.juor
dealers. negroes ani Haskelii'.es, w:!!
auioont to nothing. Otherwise, look out
lor a bitter canvass at the r.ex; ge neral
^lection- It behooves temperancc men
and reformers to watch for traps set by
their enein'e* to divide and d.ftat then;.
After enumerating Haskdiiies,
liquor dealers and negroes, he cau
tions,4,temperance men and reform
ers to watch for traps s?t by their
enemies." Any man with enough
intelligence to draw an}* conclusion
at all can see that there was an ef
fort to band the ''temperance men1*
and the "reformers'1 together and
to cast an odious reflection upon
?\
the opponents of the l).'spensar>
law. The most . sensible remark
made by "Fair Flay'1 is what he
says this week that 4vit would be
&
folly to ignore the _fact that the
vvrhiskev dealers *n 1 the Antis ??will
9
tight and -are mrsr fighting the Ad -J
ministration?' It would be not
M T '
? only "folly to deny that the Antis
-wiil 'fight the Administration, but1
'sclf-stultification, for if the}* were
not opponents ? f the administra
tion, they would not be Antis, and
it'is. natural to suppose that the
* whUkey dealers will oppose 'die fac
tion that is respona.il le for t-he pas
sage of a law that will tak^j awa\
their means of iiv< lihood. Hut we,
for one, do not believe that they
will appeal to the negro. There
was no attempt or disposition on
the part of the Antis last year to
appeal to the negro. As is well
unde^tood, we, in no sense of the
?Vord justify the course of the
Haskeliites in 18;)0, but because of
the rash actions of a few misguided
gentlemen then, there is no reason
whatever in supposing that the op
i ponents of the dispens?j^i law u-jU
if.ppeal to the negro in li: future.
The presentment of (he grand
jury contains some excellent re
commendations. Tl/e present jail
?is undoubtedly unsafe and the court
house is nt a v^rv inconvenient dis
tance for ali purposes of business
to be tran*?cled there. We ::l*o
^believe that if the countv commis
v ners were to borrow money at 8
per cent., and have the ca-h on
hand to pay current claims, that
. tSey could reduce the expenses of
the county at leastS per cent, an<;
pay the interest in that/wXy, as
parties hoMiug claims for work
? done, would be jrlad to take a much
Iw'ss amount when sure of geuin
promptly, instead 'of having to
discount the claims at 15 to 20 per
cent. w 'frequently the case at
?present. Both /recommendations
-.-should be favorably actfd upon.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
'From our reirnlar correspondent ]
Washington, Feb. 7, 1893.
It is prftTisirie that there will
*oqje taiijf legislation at this
session after ail. The ? H.mse
Wavs an/1 Moans Commit lee favor?,
and there is very iittle opposition
anywhere/ the repeal of thai, clause
i f the MfKin!ey law which raises
the tariff on linen 'goods fifty per
cent ob and after January 1, 1894.
It is admitted l>v the Republicans
that this clause has failed io ac
complish what it was intended to
do ? develop the linen industry in
the United States.
Senator Harris./ of Tennessee,!
says that J udge Jackson of that
slate who h?6 been nominated to
th*! vacancy on the Supreme Ourt,
:ilihou?rh commonly classed as a
Democrat, and appointed to his
present position on the Bench of
lire Circuit Ourt by My (> leveland,
is as good a Republican as Mr gar
rison. That there will he strhng
opposition from both sides of the
Senate to Jackson's confirmation ik
certsin, but whether it will be\
strong enough to defeat him is not
yet apparent. Some Republicans
will oppose hi is because he i>
classed as v. Democrat, others br
j cause they had served notice on Mr
i Harrison that t hev would oppose
my nominal ion ho made t.? the
; vacancy. Most of the Democrats
who oppose the confirmation do so
| on principle ;?hey believe the va
t cancy Should have been lcfi for Mr
( Cleveland to fill but t'.iere are 0U1
jers who while not opposed to Judge
Jaekson personally will vi>te against
! this confirmation because to vole
I for him morallv binds them to vote
for Mr Ha -lison's nomination to
the vacan. v which hia/confuma
tlon woaid .leave is. the Circuit
'fouri, and it is considered cerium
that a Republican would be norni
| nated. It is creditable to Judg<*
Jackson .that one word has
beea said by anybody iigamst nir>
ability and personal fitness for the
honor. Contrary to precedent his
nomination was referred to a com
mittee, and it will surprise very few
shou'd that committee fail to report
it back to the Senate.
'The Hawaiian commission h.iv
i ng presented the petition of ihe;
government the\' represent for an
nexation to ti# United States, to
Mr Hartison, twrongh the See. of
Slate, ir^now waiting as patiently
:is they it ay for an answer. In
spite of the mystery with which
the officials of the Stale Depart
ment are trying to surround the
matter there would he lilile doubt
of the character ? f the answer were
it not so near the rlose of Mr Har
rison's term. He u:>questionol>ly
favors annexation, hut may, so
long as it can hardly he consurninat

publish v. communication -c. '-Trod "Fair
j rit'j'' on the Dispensary v.;? v. Your
linos" to s ii.l romni i.i: ; tion are
I calculated to prodj- dice the mind <?f the
i reader before he has rea l : he article.
Some ninrlit consi^-r tha' *! is was "not
playing exactly fair" witn ' Fair Play.''
j In a communication which appe : re<l in
1 your is- ue of Jan 27. 1VJ1, on ''the Dis
pensary law."' in which tho ot'ner side
jot* the measure was discussed, your
"head lines'* were quite different.
There was no oiTort on t ? j?? part of "'Fair
}'!??>?" the impression that the
-'.:ssr y :iK-rs, Ila.nkeliitcs and negroes
1 be alii -i] togctlu r. The fact
s \*?.!: known that the Haskellites in
the S?enatft ar.d I Ior.se o? Representa
tives voted soli lly against b. ?t } i the lif
ter- Prohibition T?i 11 and the Evan's Fu
J pens:irv Bill. Of the 3* votes ca.it fur
the It oper Bill i:i the Iheise, n.*t one
was cast by n. Haskelhto. Of the 27
votes cast in the S ;nate for the Evans'
Hill , not one was cast by a II iskelltf*:'
Of the o" votes cast in the II >?i?e to snb
stitute the Even's f >r the Roper Bill.
; not one was ru^-t by a Jlaskellite . There
| fore "Fair Play" only recognizes exist
ing conditions. The impression wasl.?n<;
since created that th^ IIa*keli faction ''
allied with th> whiskey dealers ;is their
championship of their cause in and out
j of the legislature fullv proves. The llas
| ke'.lit?*3 in 1S90 appealed to the nejrro
and therefore we presume iht-v would
do so a?jain. We do net wai t a faction
al fight en this issue. But the fijrht is
on. The HasJBellites have made it a f ac
tional fight frontjjthe beginning. The IT ?
formers have n<l&piade the fiiht facti-n-,
aV Some of off# best Reformers ha
voted apainst both the Prohibition and |
Dispensary bills. It would be folly to j
i^jjore the &ct that the whiskey dealers
and the Antis will fight, and are now
fighting, the administration and the Re- j
formers on this issue. Who doubts!
that they will appeal to the negro? In i
their argument* against the prohiUtion |
vote in the primaries, th ?y claimed :
that the negro was unjustly excluded, j
Of course i* was a democratic primary in
which no one could vote but Democrats.
N'u Democr tt whs excluded on account of i
his color. Hence, thU w.is intended as I
an appeal to race predjadice. which de- !
pen (led oi? the ignorance f the ne^ro!
for its iuccex*. But r.s straws indicate |
the course of the wind , so this indicated
a design to use the negro in the faction
al fight against the administration on
the issue of the Dispensary law. Vhy'
not give* the 'aw a fair trial and if it
proves ur?{*tfsf#ctory, repeal it and try !
something clsel If ft ^unconstitutional I
