The decisive utterance of the Dominion Grange in favor of total prohibition as soon ai may be. and a vigorouR enforcement of the iScott act in the meantime, is a fitting reply to the despicable appeals to the selfish- ness of the farmers by those who argue that prohibition will destroy their mcrket for barley. The most intelligent of the farmers, as represented in the grange, scout the notion that a great moral problem is to be considered from the huckster paint of view of profit and loss, or that mere material advantage should stand in the way of tlie abolition of a traffic which lias caused such untold misery and degrad- ation. The barley argument is a slander upon the intelligence, no less than the conscience, of the farming community. â€" News. AHamoroas Letter liy Abraham liincoln. // m Hoaor B»ll of 8. S.
