Prohibition Day.

July 4th, 1888, was emphatically
a Prohibition Day in many States
of the Union.
In Iowa twenty-five enthusiast
tic Prohibition County Conven-
tions were held on the 4th, and
such thrill of patriotic impulse
for Freedom from the liquor tyrant,
was sent throughout the State, as
never felt before.
That the Fourth of July was so
largely given to Temperance Mass
Meetings and Prohibition Conven-
tions, is fact that speaks volumes
for the future. Many such meet
ings were held throughout Ohio
and other States, as we'll as our
own.
A general advance toward Ma
tional independence was pushed
forward all along the line of tenn
perance work on Independence
Day,

perance men and women who are

That BOmbShell.

The Rev. John R. Thompson
threw a bombshell among the pro-
hibitionists during his address at
Moundsville on the Fourth
Wheeling Register.
Well, s'pose he did; did you see
any loyal prohibitionists flee to the
saloons for shelter, as the Register
always does +?
The fact is, if the bomb was
thrown at all, it never busted"
till after the Fourth was over, and
the editor of the Register went fool
ing about the fuse with his license
matches.
If Mr.. Thompson declared tor
high license, as the Register claims,
it was bad for Mr. Thompson, and
no good for the Register. And as it
cannot affect the prohibitionists of
West Virginia in their well defined
principles and purposes, we see no
prospect of a panic at all, at all.

Silly Nonsense.

The silliest little bit of nonsense
we have seen in long time was
done up for the liquor organ of the
State by a Weston agent few days
ago.
He told the Register in substance
that the absence of whisky and
beer in Weston had reduced bust
ness one-fourth, and it was proving
the death of the community to
keep sober. (However, prohibi-
ton don't prohibit. Bear this in
mind.) An Intelligencer correspond
ent takes up the cause of truth and
utterly annihilates the slanderer
of Lewis county, by showing the
vastly improved condition of
things since beer was banished. He
gives the testimony of Weston's
beading citizens and business men,
-attesting the new life of the COM
-munity; the peace and order that
has come to them, the increased
business, brighter prospects, secur-
.er homes, and, in a word, the uni
versal joy of a redeemed commu-
nifty.
Out upon writer or newspaper
that would say aught to bring back
the hideous curse upon commu-
nity once freed from it!

True Democracy.

The following littl e Fourth Of Ju.
ly sermon, clipped from last weeks
Wetzel Democrat, breathes forth the
spirit of true Democracy, pure Re-
publicanism, lofty patriotism and
wise political economy:
THE SERMON.
Attention, boys, and don't forget
this: Next Fourth of July, in
stead Of swinging beer all the morn
ing, do you get together party of
nice, sweet girls, and go off upon
the hill tops among the breezes of
heaven and spend the day together
and you will never regret it. Next
day you will feel that you are
among those who are worthy to
bear the grand name of gentle
man." And you won't have the
headache, either.

After paying high tribute to the
grand work of woman in the tenn
perance reform, the speaker briefly
reviewed the progress of the Prohi-
bition movement in West Virginia,
denouncing the political treason
and trickery that had delayed sue
cess, in decidedly stalwart Fourth
of July English.
In closing his brief remarks, as a
red-hot welding addendum to Mrs.

Judge Ferguson promulgated some
very pertinent and pointed ''proph-
ecy" for the joint benefit of the po-
litical parties of the State.

"Well, yes he replied; eve

the Judge followed in a speech, and
referring to the proposed partner
ship, said: "After hearing Mr.

to take him into the firm as a full

MURDERER ARRESTED. - VIM.
Peyton, who killed his wife at
Barboursville, Cabeli county, on
the 9TH inst, was captured within
half a mile of the scene of his crime
last Saturday. He killed his wife
because she refused longer to sup
port him in idleness. There was
a reward offered by the Governor of
the State of 5000 and one of $100
offered by Sheriff Kyle, Of Cabell
county, and the money was turned
over to Peyton's children.-Cres-
cent.
This disposition of the reward
was generous and commendable on
the part of Tyler Swami and 9th
ers, who made the arrest.

DR.. SMITHS ADDRESS.

DIX. SMITH ADDRESS.
In the evening, after some stir
ring songs by the Choir, and pray
er by Rev. w. B. Griffits, of Wheel
ing, DR.. J. E. Smith, of Fourth St.
M. E. Church, Wheeling, delivered
the exhaustive and mastery dis
course of the two days meetings.
In word, DR., Smiths lecture
was most eloquent, dashing
charge against the whole line of
objections raised to Prohibition, and
the utter demolition of every i'm
provised fortress of the enemy. By
logical approaches, all the liquor
lines were surprised and by broad
sides of truth and fact, all their
sham batteries of license" "mod-
Grafton" and regulation" were lit
orally blown decentralization.
Starting with the proposition
that "Prohibition is indispensable
to the Temperance Reform" the
eminent lecturer, by facts and fig
ures abundantly proved that all
other efforts to cure the evils of the
traffic had been miserable failures,
and that Prohibition, wherever
tried, had been a marked success.
All the temporary shifts and
compromising expedients incident
to The temperance agitation, were
in order taken up, dissected by the
Doctors keen logic, shown to be ut
terly futile and useless and cast
away. So did he with the "moder-
alton" shift, the Fighter beverage
theory, "taxation," license" and
"high license" and in their stead
set up the invincible standards Of
total abstinence and Prohibition.
70 deliver such lecture to the
small audience Of Tuesday evening
was cruel task to exact of any
speaker. 1t was misfortune that
the masses present the next day
were not privileged to hear it.
Wednesday, July 4th.
The morning dawned bright and
promising, and soon the populace
came pouring in from all quarters,
AS the day warmed up, the cool
groves were sought out and the
lemonade and ice-cream stands
largely patronized, but the grand
outdoor "hall" in the midst of the
cottages, soon became the center of
attraction.
| TEMPERANCE PRAYER-MEETING.
At 9 o'clock Rev. G. S. Allemong
conducted a temperance prayer
meeting, in which the singing was
most inspiriting, and the talking
and praying of those taking part
full,of earnestness and hope.
AT 1920 the regular exercises
were as follows:
Singing, Crown Him Lord of All.
Prayer, by Prof. D. B. Purinton,
of the University.
Singing, Marching for Temper

charge Of the program, with brief
but eloquent com pliments, intro
duced the orator of the morning
REV. J. r. THOMPSON.
The Rev. Speaker started out
with reading a chapter of liquor
traffic horrors as gathered from the
New York Dailies, of one week,
and taking these as text, pro
ceeded to paint the hideous mon
ster of incompetence and portray it
/ before the audience in al it's horrid
ugliness.
He showed that the list of
suicides, murders and other hor-
rors recited, were but an inkling,
an indication, of what was trans
piring behind the scenes Of this
awful traffic. What he had shown
was but the opening Of the door,
just a little, to q perfect HE'LL, back
of it,
