BySTKOLtiER. For the Truth-Iodfx. If I were asked the question for if hat U Salisbury noted, I should unhesitatingly say, for its pretty women and muddy streets. Of course there are ether institu tions in Salisbury, but it seems that, here, as in others parts of the world, the spirits of good and evil are about evenly matched. I never I , see a woman coming up the street without con trasting what she is walking upon, with what is walking upon it. ; Then too, Salisbury is noted for the men who think they have the best lookipg women in? the town. - ' I believe I like Mr. John Hen derson's bill for the protection of the women. I am opposed to di vorce, and in nine times" out of ten. I believe the men are to blame for domestic infelicity, and a premium should be placed upon conduct that leads tosuch results. There are many flaws that may be picked in this bill, but the worst that can be said of the bill is that on account of its forcing a man to support his divorced wife, women might encourages divorces and earn an easy livelihood: This would be a very valid obpetion, but for the fact that it is a wild, visionary theory' against a pretty condition women don't do things that way. lam talking every day with preachers and bar keppers.

They have inaugurate ed against saloons that wont end with the Sunday sermon. And then the women are against you. You could'nt ffo wroncr in that crowd, could you? I don't know what to tnink. I never did and never will take a drop of liquor, But I'm surely worried as to how I should vote. I often tjiink when writing of whiskey, what it is that causes its use.

But the editor, unlike the ministers assigns the Bible as the cause of whiskey drinking. I don t believe the Bible encourages it, never saw it anyway. I read Mr. H. S. Trott's on the "Wright Bible bill." There were I " some things in it that were good and well. I am sure however that Mr. Trott's article cannot serve any better purpose than to raise a discussion that would neer end Weknoffof him Well anough to feel certain that it was offered in the best of good spirit, so I hardly feel moved to offer an objection to hia' observation s. Still,! think he errs grievously in trying to prove by a reductio ad absurdum argument that he and his fellow believers are not given recogni tion. Very true. But it should be so. In this great State, there are probably within a few Ihous- and of voters, as many men in the Republican party as the Demo cratic party has. But majority rules. An absolute, demcracy is impossible, if there were more deists and wrnoatica in tha conn try. they should govern unless we change our political system. the Roman Catholics predomi nate, adopt their Bible.
