both the Democratic and Republi-
can Conventions Of Jackson county.
Wood county Democratic Con-
vention passed Sept. I'd, 1882:
"WHEREAs, There are diverse
opinions concerning the question
Of prohibition, subject which is
now agitating and disturbing the
political parties Of this State, and
whereas there is a great demand
that the question be submitted to
the people for ratification or re-
lection at the polls; Therefore, be
it by this Convention,
"Resolued, That it is the sense of
this Convention that the question
of prohibition is one that ought to
be submitted to the voters Of the
State by the next Legislature"
Wood county Republican Con-
vention passed Aug. 10Th, 1882
"And we favor the sub
mission of the proposed Pro-
hibition Amendment to the State
Constitution to the suffrages of the
electors. 1t is for the people to
make such changes in their laws
or Constitution, as the majority
may adopt. A free ballot makes
the people free"
Clay County Republican Con-
vention passed Aug. 7th, 1882
"ResoIved, That the Republicans
Of Clay county do fully endorse the
Prohibition Amendment, as pre-
sented to the Legislature of West
Virginia at its last session. That
they will support only such candi-
dates for the offices of State Sena-

favor said amendment, and the
right of Petition by the people"

What More ?

we give our readers on this page
the Memorial and accompanying
documents, as prepared by the
State Temperance Executive Com
mittoe, and respectfully submitted
to the Honorable, the Legislature
of our State, on Monday.
Surely this array of documents
and facts, expressive Of the impor-
tunate prayers and determined
will Of the people will be readily
and eagerly accepted by their wor-
thy representatives
Surely the Legislature has been
sufficiently importuned, and surely
the righteous prayers Of the pa
tient, supplicant sovereigns of the
State will not longer 90 UNDECIDED
and unanswered
Indeed, what more could be done
than has been done? The peo-
pie have spoken, individ-
ually and collectively. They have
petitioned, singly and in mass
meetings; they have appealed by
resolutions in public assemblies,
secular, political and religious, of
every name, party and creed,
throughout the entire State. From
the Rostrum, Pulpit and Press the
cry has gone up, earnestly, impor-
tunately, persistentIy for this inal-
ienable, a2odetea8jble, INEVITABLE
right of the People to be heard on
a matter that Immediately con-
Germs their "life, liberty, and
pursuit of happiness" All has
been done that can be done to bring
to the ears and hearts Of our wor-
thy Representatives the desires of
their constituents: and we rest
well assured that enough has been
done to warrant and insure from
the Legislature, the submission,
without further delay, of this
vexed question that politicians SC
much dread, to the independent
Sovereigns of the State for then
fearless and impartial arbitra-
ment. So mote it be.

trict, held at Point Pleasant July
II, 1882, among other things, it
was declared:
rs. The right of petition is an
inalienable one, and should be re-
spected and preserved"
And the action of the last Legis-
lature was condemned for having
"turned a deaf ear to the prayers of
the people in asking to be permit
ted to vote on a Constitutional
Amendment, prohibiting the man
ufacture and sale of Intoxicating
liquors"
The Greenback State Conven-
ton, held at Parkersbnrg, July 1st,
1882, resolved as follows
"15. That we regard the action
Of the late Legislature of this State
in refusing to submit to a vote of
the people the proposed Constitu-
tional Amendment to the State
prohibiting the manufacture and
sale Of intoxicating liquors, as an
unwarranted disregard of the wish
es and desires of large number
of the voters and people of this State
who had petitioned for such sub
mission"
Resolution passed by the Lewis
County Democratic Convention,
July Goth, 1882:
"ResoLvsd, That we regard and
hold as one of the cardinal princi-
Piles Of the Democratic party the
right of the people to be heard
on all questions touching their in
terests and well-being when de-
manded by respectable number
thereof. Therefore, inasmuch, as
so large and respectable a number
of citizen voters of our State ask
for the privilege of voting on the
question of Prohibition, we hold
that such privilege should not be
withheld by the Legislature Of our
State"

Oct. 1st, 1882, declared as follows:
"Reso1red, That we will do all we
can consistent with the work of the
Christian Ministry to secure legal
and constitutional prohibition in
the State of West Virginia"
The annual Conference of the
United Bethren Church, held at
Parkersburg, April I'd, 1881, resolv-
ed as follows:
eve therefore, as a Conference,
heartily endorse the Constitutions
al Amendment now pendingin

and humbly and most earnestly
ask the passage of the same"
And at the next annual meeting
of the same body held at Grafton,

ed:
"The time is fully come when the
friends Of Temperance must not

those who will at the next meeting
Of the Legislature send this whole
question down to the people to be
settled as they may elect"
The Baptist General Association,

ing:

stitution of West Virginia, pro-
hibiting forever the manufacture
and sale of intoxicating. liquors

that we earnestly pray God to give
success to this movement"
And again at the last annual
meeting held at Hinton, Nov. II,
1882, it was again resolved
"3. 4; * 4; We con-
fdently expect that the present
Legislature elect, will submit the
Amendment the coming winter"
IS. Repeating the oft-prayed de-
sires Of the suffering people of West
Virginia, in the name of the 81
900 Baptists of the State, we DO
earnestly beg the members of the
present Legislature to submit the
proposed Amendment to a vote OF
the people"
The Annual Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, at
two successive sessions, has like
wise declared in favor of submit

WEST VA. FREEMAN: The out
look for the Amendment is very
hopeful. We count forty-seven
Delegates who have given positive
assurance that they will vote for
it. Two or three more pledged
that they would do SO and num-
Der of others we have not heard as
to how they stand.
There seems to be no doubt but
that it will pass the Senate if the
House passes it.
Judge Holt had introduced the
old Amendment, but upon con-
sultation, that was withdrawn,
and the proposition as now pend

There seems to be very close corporation in

which are Senators Brown and Voyles and
Representative Jewett
The committee appointed to investigate
the affairs of the new State-house, met last
night and organized, and determined upon a
plan of work, which is kept secret for the
present.
Representative Wright of Grant county,
is making an excellent record. He hasn't
introduced bill this session, but is keeping
a sharp lookout for queer" provisions in
the bills introduced by others.
Representative Heffren yesterday intro
duced a volumnious fee and salary bill,
which is similar in its provisions to that in
troduced by Senator Sayre last session. 1t
provides generally for a system of salaries
for county officers dependent upon the pop
ulation.
Representative Cabbage introduced bill
yesterday in behalf OF the downtrodden
jackass, which was received with shouts of
laughter, and referred to the committee on
rights and privileges 1t is entitled, IAN
act for the announcement and protection of
breeders of fine stock" and make the breed
ing fee a lien on the progeny. The gentle
man from Warrick is statesman.
The defeat OF John Horn, of Floyd county,
for prison director. has created great dissat-
isfaction. especially among the Germans,
whose candidate he was His canvass was
managed by Tom Hanlon, of New Albany,
who wants to be warden of the Southern
Prison. Horns friends claim that mis- defeat
was due to the treachery of some of those
who professed to be strongest in his support
and they are correspondingly disguised.
Haulon says he is ashamed to go back to New
Albany.
Representative Wiley yesterday introduced
bill providing against voluntary intoxica-
ton of public officers and prescribing means
for their removal. The bill makes it the duty
Of prosecuting attorneys to bring and prose-
cute all proceedings for such removals, and
the prosecution shall be in the name OF the
State ex rel. of the prosecuting attorney.
The existing law simply provides that any
citizen of the State may institute proceedings
for the removal of public officers who volun-
tarily become intoxicated, and it is inopera-
tive because it makes it every body's business,
and hence nobody's business. The bill, ii
passed, will prove beneficial.

Mr.. McCulocn, in reply to question, stated

10 ascertain the facts. The question as to
whether the confession is entitled TO "A seat or not

charge Of bribery. 1t won't 90 for the Senate to
say when a charge is made that MEM
Der Der has been guilty OF bribery that
nor should We simply count depositions'
but rather we should send for witnesses and
weigh Testimony. 1t is due to the member against
whom the charge is made that the committee
should have the witnesses meet the Senator
charged face 10 face. He would favor bringing
the witnesses before the entire Senate, that each
member may weigh the testimony.
MIR. SayTe thought under the view presented
by the senator from Gibson (Mr. McCuilnch),
the resolution should not be- adopted. The sup
Elemental charge is not ground for contest.
The investigation should not be had on the
grounds before the Senate, no time, person

observed here in courts of Justice. The meanest

the most Incompetent judge in the State.

adopted.
On motion of Mr. Magee, the courtes;es of the

Mr.. Spann offered a resolution TO instruct the
committee on elections TO make a separate re-

ing Senator Overstreet with bribery and hear
full, complete and searching evidence on that
charge disconnected with and independently of
the contest now pending between OVerstreet and
