SECOND EDITION.
Bat wedo not put oar demand npon tbe gwnmd'df necessity or policy alone. There 1s a higher and better reason for following 'the oonrse Which we urge And it is, that tbe Baxter Bill is a good law, and so ought to be retained upon the statute book and enforced. Wheth erit is the best law possible we do not attempt to say. Bat we do say that whoever attemps to urge another ita place, will be regarded by tbe friends of temperance as creating a diversion iu favor of tbe enemies of temperance, The law may need some changes, snd these will readily be made. The clause making drunkenness a crime, which has been declared vnoonstitutional on technical grounds, needs to be made constitutional. There should be a fee demanded from all parties securing a permit. Perhaps the nine o'clock feature should be changed. Bat those and other amendments may easily be made. But despite its slight imperfections, the lew is good one and ought to be enforced.
It is right in principle. It leaves the question whether saloons shall exist in a eertain district to a majority of the voters, and nothing could be more just. It makes those who engage in this dan' gerons business responsible for the results of carelessness In oondacting it, which is a wise provision, despite all that is said against it. It puts the man who rents bis property for this busi ness, sad tkns supports it with hit capital, on the same footing with the salooh-keeper, which is just the place where he belongs. Let the "respectsble" and "pofaUc spirited" citizens who are shore tbe liquor bnsineas, sad yet are net above receiving ten or fifteen or twenty per oent. upon their capital in order that this business msy have a looal habitation, sqalrm ander a few indictmenta la oar courts, sad feel the power of tbe public opinion placing them «id the liquor-seller In the same boat, snd tbey will think twice before they permit this business in tbelr bniidings. These sre the main, snd perhaps most n^jectionable features of tbs law. And these sre ell good points snd have been-declared oomstltattonal by oar highest ooart.
This law ought to be retained, beoause the and perhaps tbe most ressonsble objection to it, thai It la In advance of pafetio sentiment, is test disappearing. Pnblle sentiment has made tremendona strides within a year. Even before tbe "Crusade" began the Baxter Mil stood far h(gherkin public estimstlss tfcsn when it was enacted. There has beens steadily grow* lng sentiment inlts flavor and an In* creased feeling, on £be poirt of the public, that tt Is good law sad muat be enforced. Since the "Crusade" began public sentiment has made a wonderful growth in this same direotios. Tbe law baa not been snforosd la oar own «lty. Bat now pnbita sentiment de* maods Its enforcement, and will not fee satisfied till its deaaand is ootn plied with. Ws doabt whether it is possible for any person to secure the names of majority of tbs voters of any ward of UM city, unless It fee UM first, upon a petition for permit to sell liquor. We do not believe the Commlssiooars will grant any more permits or peti Uons on which the asmet «a«not be read, or that thsy will say, beesasss number is pat down oa the pstitieo, that there mast have been name tbsre, tbongh there is i» other evidence of one. If they do, there Is a public sentiment hsrs that will make itself heard, and the feet thai tbe one who points oat these defects In tbe petitions Is sot a fitvoHas «r tbe ooort will net shield from this indignation. We be* Itevs that la leae than two months the rlty aathorltiea v*ni tad Has Messes* ry lo lake aottee of violations af the Baxter BUI, ae of violations Of the l*w against theft,

FA CM TBM V8IO—A28D WHRMEFOJtE. Laat weak we expreoaed the opinion thai tbe wiaeatconrae for the Repobtioan party to puraoe in the coining cam paifo in city and state, ia to declare iteelf fairly and aqnarely for the Baxter bill and its enforcement. It will be certain death to yield to the demand of the Gorman editors and declare it* efelf for tbe repeal o! tlris low. It will not do to attempt to tkxlge the tarae by keeping mum, for neither the antl temperance men, nor the temperance men, are in a frame of mind to endure any hide-and-seek game. Tbe German editors demand implicit pledgea, and by this demand they have forced tbe temperance people to require the same. Neither party will tolerate any attempt to throw sand in their eyes. Both alike intend to know whether the political party which* demands tlieir soffrsges is for or against them. Face the naneic, gentlemen.
Tbe
often heard, that it ia advance of public asntlmeat, falls to the ground. Tbe good reealta of the law demand Ka eontlnuanoa. Despot* the IWttai it has not toaan tboronghiy enforced, it hss done ag immense amoaat of food, eapecially in tbe country. Tbere are entire coontiee that have been rid of saloona by means of It. Tbe amount of draokeooeM nod the grrests for Crime* committed in Intoxication, hsvs very sensibly diminished in the State. And now thst It bss been' taken in haod In the cities, it ispfoving sflldent there also. In Lafayette nearly all the petitiona for permits si tbe lest sitting of tbs Commissioners foiled, and some of tbe largest and Oaest saloona of tbe eity have been cioeed. In Indianapolis twenty out of twenty foor petitions for permits failed^ On some of them were foand, in German characters, tbe names of Hour Krotal, snd Schweiser Kaese and the Commisaionera did not think theee were voters in the wards covered by the petitions. Tbe law has closed hundreds of saloona and dimln labed drunkenneaa, eapecially in the country, and Is jast becoming effec tire ia tbe ait lea. Therefore it ahould be retained.
So aound policy and right principlee demand of tbe political parties, especially of the Republican party, that they put themselves iairly and square* ly on tbe platform of tbe Baxter Bill and ita enforcement. Are yoa ready for tbe question, gentlemen

IS IT LUCK OR PRO VIDRNCS7 The Temperance movement in this city may, or may not be, fortanate In its friends: but, it certainly is exceed Ingly fortunate ia its enemies. Probe bly no temperance meeting, not even that of last Sunday evening, has done so much to strengthen and unite tbe anti-liquor sentiment of tbia city as the mass meeting held a few weeks sinoe under tbe direotfon of the German editors. And now just ss the influence of that meeting has beoome fixed uppn the public mind, tbe saloon keepers oome to the front with their resolutions most unfortunate for themselves, and most fortanate for this great move ment. Tbia threat to punish temper ance people for their principles and for the deeds of themselves and their wives, by withholding patronage, waa the sil liest thing Imaginable, and there was not a man or woman heartily intereated in this movement who was not made glad by those resolutions. It does seem as if it must be rue that "There is a divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them as we may," and that some* body has been praying that this divini ty would send confusion upon the antitemperanoe party and ihu prayer had been answered.
It may be worth while to notice, In tbia connection, the character of tbe "Crusade" in this oity. We have watched it with not a little anxiety lest it should take on objeotionable features. But thus far our fears have not been realized. There seems to be no disposition on the part of the women, or others, to resort to any annoyances, or to interfere with the rights of any body or class. Praying iu streets and saloons is discouraged even by tbe clergy. The purpose now seems to be, to see that the law is properly en fore ed, to ask the citisens not to sign petitions for permits, property holders not to rent buildings for saloons, druggists and physicians to dispense as little liquor as possible, liquor dealers to quit tbe business, tbe Commissioners to discharge their duty in exact accordance with tbe law, and tbe city authorities to demand a fee for liquor selling aad to eoforce the law. All this la perfectly proper. No rights are Interfered with, nothing wrong, aothlag even in violation of good taste, has been done or prapoeed. The movement here ia exceptionally free from all fanaticism, and baa that for kept strictly within the bounds of right and propriety. And it is this foot that makes the saloon keepers' resolution* *o injurious to themselves and their cause, and eo help fnl to the temperance party. a

THE FAIR CRUSADER. The Richmond correspondent of the Chicago Times draws tbe following lovely picture of fair crusader:
The most charming member of the sisters is a Mrs. Dr. Haughton, lady of about twentv-slx, with an oval face, dark-brown bsir, blue eyes, of a tender expreesion, veiled bv long, dark lashes, clesn cut mouth, whose red lips, when parted, reveal rows of flashing teeth. Every attitude of this woman waa artistic. Whether kneeled with uplifted fooe, or bowed her head upon the shoulder of her companion, or stood negligently up to speak, she seemed slways to have tbe pose of finished ststue. Her voice is low but penetrating, and exquisitely modulated. Ifyr utterance is distinot, full of pathos, and her sentiments constitute an sppeal that it is resistless. When she took the brswny, knobby fist of Woeste, the saloon keeper, in her nervous, shapely fingers when she leaned over to him till her breath swept his impassive fooe: when she unclosed her lips and flashed ber mouthful of pearls at him when her large, tender eyes opened full upon him their flaahes of entreaty when she appealed to him as "dear, dear brother," in the most flutelike or voices when—when, that's far enough to carry this thing. I think, however, that under tbe glamour or I the spectacle I about made up my mind to buy out a saloon somewhere in town, for the sole purpoee of hsving this charming Quakeress come around nnd try to get me out of the wicked business.
