OLCOTT Milor Niagara County The ipr'ng strife is past, nnd a season of quiet awaits us. The dead and wounded will no douht be properly cared for. The fall eampaigu will bring forward a 1 gber toned claim of men; alien the battle will be re-1 slimed with all of it* former tierceneas. 1 have become thoroughly convinced, and bave been for aeveral years; that wo have too much politics in our country For seveial years there has been Iu fact, no Issue of iin portance before tbe |>eople; unless we nsin** the Tariff, and I have many doubts whether that wiii ever be settled Our would-be-wisa men, and tbe best tenants of the country, have had it under discission for tho pasl fifty years b> my certain knowledge; Including our most prominent Statesiuvu. and it is still an unsettled and o[4>u question—it is a Big H«re that two can ride, and be can with the greatest ease be made to Uot, pace or gallop to suit tlu occasion. At preoeul all eyes are turned toward the Teni|>eranc* question; and here too is an issue equally as knoltyaa that of the Tariff The same cause governs both questions - uiouey. In the Tariff, the manufacturers' Interest Is at stake; in that of the Temperance question, the l.iquor dealers run !*■- machine, I lacked up by tbe tipplers in either case, tbe great mass of tbe people suffer-especially In tbe latter. There Is not now. nor ha* there ever Iwn, a measure before tbe people in which tne better portion—l mean outeide of the habitual drinker' are so slow to come to reasonable oonclust'ans,as that of tbe liquor traffic. Tbe general tax payer cannot or will not allow himself to see, that a very large p oportion of bis taxes goes directly to sup|<ort aud keep iu full for c the millions of heartless men no* in tbe trade; saying nothing of tbe suffering of motbeis and children. We bave one rase la oar immediate neighborhood, wbo tbe past winter, after having been allowed to drink to excess by men In direct violation of law; bas several tiows gone home and turned bis family out of doors to shift as best tbey Could Tbe naked truth ia, if you want to take tbe last grain of roashood out of a drunkard or Use man that sells it, let blm engsge in the businaas, and tbe wurk is done.
