under the banner of Prohibition.
The speaker paid his respects at
length to Senator Price of the
eleven" who defeated the Amend
ment, and we assure our readers
the respects" were in all respects
vigorous and complimentary" so
to speak.
He said if any of these eleven"
who spurned the prayers of our wo-
men and defied the will of our peo-
pie, were Christians and ever pray
ed at all, they ought to be honest
and tell God just how mean they
acted In voting against submitting
the amendment.
These men who can stand up and
say, "the people sha'n't have a
right to be heard---there are
enough honest Democrats and Re.
publicans standing ready to bury
all such, and he wanted to be at the
funeral and read the burial service.
He would give them historical bu-
rial, face downwards, at the forks
of the road, with a stake driven
through each corpse--that is, fig
uratlvely speaking, in the polit-
ical Interpretation thereof.
The Doctor made an eloquent APP
peal to the people of Mason county
to bestir themselves in the interest of
their own homes. They ought at
once to get a petition and protest
against license mile long and bear
ing it before the commissioners, tell
them in tones of authority, Here
IS the peoples aoiN"
Before closing, the speaker sup
plemented the good words of others
in that behalf, by presenting the
FREEMAN's claims in the strongest
practical terms, especially urging
Christian families to take it into
their homes, assured that it will
carry in with it nothing that will
do any harm to anyone.
The meeting was one of deep
practical interest throughout and
closed with general good feeling
for Prohibition in West Virginia.
The Report was adopted by an
enthusiastic rising vote, no man
being there to stand up in response
to the call for the negative.
1t were superhuous to add that
the FREEMAN subscription list was
largely increased

TO ADVERTISERS.
Over $50 Points of In teresf.

To Business and Professional
men, DESTROYS of advertising their
wares or brains, we beg to submit
A FEW FREEMAN FACTS.
We don't say
Ii is Fact, that the FREEMAN has
better general circulation in West
Virginia than any newspaper pub
lished either within or without
the State; but we do say
II is "a Fact, as our regular sub
scription mailing books show, that
during the year just closed, the
FREEMAN has been going to regular
subscribers through more than
40 WEST VA. POST-OFFICES.
II is a Fact, that for the last seven
months, our regular weekly issues
have numbered $500 and upwards,
to 1000, never below the former
figures.
10 IS Fact, that advertisers, and
all parties interested, can learn the
exact number of each weekly edi-
ton by reference to the standing
figures at the head of the editorial
page.
II is Fact, that we aim to ex-
clude from our columns all adver-
tisements of a doubtful or suspi-
cious character.
II IS a Fact, that we are glad to
confer and negotiate with Business,
Professional and Enterprising men
