Encouraging Evidence.

The prejudice of the editor of the
Chillicothe Advertiser against the
mode the women have adopted and so
successfully prosecuted against the
liquor traffic, is evidently yielding to
popular sentiment on the subject of
praying, singing and pleading with the
liquor dealers to abandon their busi-
ness. We yet have hope forthe editor,
and our hope is based upon the follow
ing article which we clip from his pa
per of last week Although it is not
exactly what we would like to see
from his pen, yet it does give evidence
of a yielding to popular sentiment on
this great and exciting question:
When the editor RECEIVERS from his
freight at this women's movement, and
becomes satisfied that no harm is in
tended to the Democratic party by it,
he will be all right on the side OF
praying and singing temperance wo-
men. The following is the article re.
fered to:
Fayette County herald. [volume] (Washington [Washington Court House], Fayette County, O. [Ohio]) 1860-1???, 1874-03-26
A GOOD IDEA.

A gentleman of this city, and as
good and pure a man as our city can
boast, man strictly temperate and q
friend of the true temperance cause,
has advanced plan for the saving OF
drunkards which we believe every cit
izen will adopt and hail with joy.
He proposes that the women now
engaged in this work divide themselves
into squads; one squad for every ward,
aud they shall make it their duty to
find out what men and boys are drink
ing too much, and they shall labor
privately with those parties and seek
by prayer or any other means to have
them stop their evil practices.
This will be a labor of love. Il
will not create hard and bitter feelings,
and will do far more good than all this
foolish parading that is now going on.
Ladies, we ask you to think of this
gentlemen's plan.
