Prayer vs.. Whisky.

The war ofthc praying women goes
bravcly and vigorously on, in some
small towns, with marked effect. In
large, corrupt cities, like Chicago, New
York, DC, the power Of darkness seems
to prevail, While many saloons have
succumbed to the winning smiles and
yet more winning tears and prayers of
the fair besicsers, a great many are, as
yet, seemingly untouched by the pray
crrul shots fired at them for about two
or three weeks. While one wholesale
dealer in Atlanta, Georgia, says he is
going to quit the disrcputablc business,
being influenced by the far off prayers
nnd teas Of the ladies', another in the
same place has branded his whisky
t. Betsy Ward" Such is lie. Such
are the different views that are enter.
tanned by those now and heretofore en-.
gagged in the liquor traffic.
We know the drinking Of strong
drink is an evil practice that cause,
more crime than all other causes com
blned, but we do not think it will per
maneaay yield to prayer, hut the strong
arm ofthe law will have to assert It's su
preinacy to arrest. suppress, and ex-
terminate. root and branch, this terri
Die, gigantic evil. Let the law be re-.

Col. CoIvar, in his cali for a CONVEX
ton Of johnson men in Nashville next
May, thinks the question most likely
TO disturb Conservative and Democrat
ic harmony in the election Of a United
States Senator, and proposes II new
method He says:
As the Legislature cIccting aSrna
tor are the servants Of the people, it
will be proposed 10 let the people in
strnct She Legislature, by each volcr
putting on his ticket for the election
for Governor and members of the Gen
cral Assembly, the name Of his choice
for Senator, 50 that the Legislature
when IL meets will l@"r the benefit OF
knowing who is the choice of the re.
spcctlvc parties for that high office"
Why not let the Senator he elected
by the people at once and candid ltcs
announce themselves But, we like The
old plan Of the Legislature elec.ing Il
Senator. And we would not object To-
Johnson or any other able man, 80 rs
to have harmony and not hayea Rad
