forth i'll the report of the board of
trustees:
The great state of Iowa has fallen-a
helpless victim of ignorant zeal aid
blind fanaticism-crushed by blow so
powerful and annihilating that the very
hands which directed were startlsd by
its results. The legislature of Ohio
has slowly advanced by cnntenting it.
self with the passage of obnoxious laws,
the legislature of Indian has made sud
den strides by adopting a resolution to
submit TO popular vote constitutional
amendment altogether prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of our cOmmodi-
ties. Kansas bows still to the sceptre
of st. John. Nebraska is on the very
brim of being engulfed in the wild
maelstrpm of prohibition fury; and
Missouri, our very neat neighbor, barely
escapes from similar danger. And south
of US the symptoms are alarming in the
highest degree. The states at North
Carolina and Arkansas need only be
mentioned, and the late appearance of
the prohibition specter there will at
once recur to our recollection.
