The speech of DIR. l. T. Monahan in
front of the Court House last Saturday
night was the ablest effort we ever
heard him make. We differ with him
on many points of his argument. but
that does not prevent us from saying
that he presented his points in an able
and ingenious manner. 1t was little
difficult to know just how he stood as to
license. He argued at some length in
favor of licensing the liquor traffic, and
then said he thought he should vote
against license. He was positive he
should vote against the the constitution
as whole, and thought he should also
vote against the license clause.
The DR.. had large and very respecta-
Bile audience. The large attendance and
quiet department of the people should be
hatterlng to the Dr., and the good con-
duct of the people at these street meet
ings confers honor upon the town of
Jackson.
