Thanks, brother. We have doub-
lie faith in all good wishes coming
from the Third District, since 50
many of your counties are hosting
the clean flag Of Prohibition.
The new prohibitory law of Kan
sas denies the use of wine at the
sacrament, and renders preachers
liable for its use, 1t compels every
| physician to take an oath not to
| prescribe any article into which al
cohol enters unless it is necessary
for the health of the patient, and
every druggist to take a similar
oath not to put up or sell any such
article except by prescriptions, duly
signed, of practicing physicians.
Under this law no one can buy spir-
its Of camphor, cologne or tlayoring
extracts except upon a physicians
prescriptions Weston Republican.
Don't be frightened, friend there
isn't word Of truth in all that
stuff, concocted by the apologists Of
the traffic. If you are Christian,
YOU can take the sacrament with
out risk and if you get stomach
ache, you can get camphor; or if
you're q dandy you shall have
1
you're cologne, and not have a
bloody temperance policeman stand
ing over you either. You've been
imposed on, that's all.
It is almost time tor the
"FREEMAN" to stop its miserable
practice of continually crediting our

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
Reasons Why the Court Grant
Licenses.


Court at its last session by a vote of
two against one, granted license
to sell Intoxicating liquors in this
county. Hon. Samuel S. Spencer,
President Of the Court, opposed the
applications, and in his opinion,
which was given at length, he gave
the traffic some terrible blows, He
had witnessed the effects of the
use Of spirituous liquors. He had
stood by the tombs of some of the
brightest men in this country who
had been swept away, into prema-
ture graves by the Demon Intern
perance. He had seen fortunes
squandcred, lives lost, character
wrecked, families ruined, bright
hopes blasted, all by the use of liq-
quor. He could call to memory,
and name (but it was not necessary
