DEAR SIR:-Wc take pleasure in in
forming you of the good work done by
your Hand Grenades at our Factory in
Alameda, yesterday. A fire caught upon
the shingle roof of a large frame struc.
ture, and burned furiously, and for
time endangered our entire works. The
fire was burning over about one hundred
feet of surface when the alarm was
given, and the men all being on the first
floor, seized the Grenades and had to go
up three flights of stairs to the top of
the building, which is sixty feet high,
and there was difficulty in gaining ac.
cess to the fire on account of the steep
ness Of the roof and the absence of
cleats, which occasioned considerable
delay. When the men reached the fire
they instantly eXtinguished it by the
use of your Hand Grenades, although
the shingles were well burned. We be.
lieve your Grenades saved the building
from total destruction. Please send us
an additional supply Immediately.
Yours Very Truly,

EDITORIAL NOTES.

When people talk as if this, that
and the other good work cannot sue
ceed in Honolulu on account of
local jealousies, they are trumping
up an excuse for neglect of duty.
If all the good that has been done in
the world had depended upon the
efforts of people who were afraid to
encounter, and unable to overcome
prejudices and opposition of all
kinds, the state of the human race
to-day would bea very dreary con-
temptation.

Two Points Gained.

Two points Of immense value 70
the sober, thinking people of the
State, were gained by the discus.
sion in the Republican Convention
on the submission" plank.
1st. An occasion was afforded for
a public exhibition of the intoler.
ance and tyranny of the LIQUOR
power, with headquarters in
Wheeling, which proposes to ride
rough-shod, with whip and spur,
whoop and hurrah, over all the de.
cent, home-loving people of the
State.
2. 1t brought to the front our
brave men and true, who will be
the wiser and drawer for having
confronted in open battle this great
enemy of the Home, of Society and
the State. A skirmish that dis.
covers the enemy's weakness and
shows the strength of the right, is
always a substantial victory.

COWardice.

The Republican party OF West
Virginia gives no more promise or
hope to prohibitionists than does
the Democratic party. True, In
two successive Legislatures OF the
State, no Republican outside OF
Ohio county had voted against
Submission, and we had hoped,
therefore, that the Republican
State Convention, held in this city
last week, would rise above all fear
of the liquor power and declare It
self in favor of the peoples right
to be heard on this prohibition
question at the polls. But not SO.
Party policy was placed above
principle and right.
AS before the State Democratic
Convention held the week previous,
so before the Republican Conven-
ton, the Submission question was
urgently pressed. 1t was discussed
on every hand. 1t was the Invest
question OF the day. 1t took up
more time and attention of the
Committee on Resolutions than all
the planks of the platform togeth-
er. But the committee were afraid
to do right and ignored the ques-
ton in the report.
A plain straight resolution in
favor of submission was voted down
by vote of three to one. Thus
did the brave old party that in
years agone, dared to break the
letters of slaves and fight for human
freedom, cover before a handful of
whisky men in Ohio county for the
sake Of policy
Thus are the thousands who are
determined to have an opportuni-
ty to express themselves at the
ballot box, as to W whether the in
iquitious drink traffic shall be per.
petuated and legalized in West
Virginia, spurned, ignored and
thrust aside by both the political
parties in this State. Again we
repeat and inquire, What think
they, we temperance voters, Dem
ocrats and Republicans, are going
to do about 9t2
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1884-08-06
Change Front to Rear.

The Democratic Convention re-
fused to declare for Submission,
pronounced against prohibitory
legislation in the "sumptuary"
plank, and nominated for Govern
or Of the State a man on record
against Submission.
Had the Republican party &C.
cepted the issue thus presented,an
so improved its splendid opportu-
nifty, it would have gained thous-
ands of Democratic votes on this
issue alone. This it failed and re-
fused to do. And now how do m at
ters stand with the temperance
torces2
During the weeks past our faith
full leaders, regardless of party af-
filiations, have been pressing for
ward toward the State Conven-
tions, hopeful that both parties
would commit themselves to the
righteous and non-partizan policy
of referring this great question OF
the liquor traffic to the people at
the polls. Ia these fond hopes the
temperance people have been sue
cessfully fanked and baf1ed by the
politicians, and it is putting it
very mildly to say they are sorely
and sadly disappointed. But they
will waste no time in improbable
regrets or idle repinings. Theil
course is plain, their duty impera
tive, land their action will be prompt
and decisive. Let the command
"Chamget front to the rear" ring along
the temperance lines, and let
Simultaneous charge be made or
every county and Senatorial dis
trict. Let the Legislators and Sen
ators be captured in detail, and lei
no candidate pass the temperance
pickets who fails to pronounce thu
"shibboleth," Submission!

National Prohibition.

National Prohibition is coming.
and it is coming fast. By towns,
districts, counties and States, it is
coming rolling on with a tide of
reform that is already irresistible.
We intended in this issue to give
a summary Of the enthusiastic
proceedings of the grand gather.
ing of National Prohibition dele.
gates, at Pittsburg, but matters of
immediate home interest have
prevented. We give the National
Prohibition platform on an inside
page. 1t is clear but rather elab.
crate statement of the live issues
of the day, and should be read and
carefully studied by every true
American citizen.
More than 600 delegates were
present and after harmonious and
enthusiastic sessions, Governor st.
John, of Kansas, and Hon. VIM.
Daniel, of Maryland, were nomin-
ated by reclamation for President
and Vice President.

Altogether Fitting.

Mr.. Dovener stood savagely for
the saloon against the Home in the
Republican Convention.
1t was altogether fitting that the
Ohio county candidate of two years
ago, who gave assurances to preach
ers and Temperance committees,
that he would vote for submission,
and then bartered these pledges to
the Saloon power, should be found
standing for the Saloon interest,
during his second candidacy. He
could hardly find market now
for any second hand, duplex pledg-
es with Ohio county Temperance
people.

"Our Appeal unto Caesar.

AS the great apostle Paul, after
repeated buffetings, insults and
scourgings at the hands of politi-
cal rabbles and rulers, in the maj
esty of his righteous cause, hushed
their jeers and stirred their fears,
by appealing unto Caesar, SO now,
must the Temperance people Of
West Virginia, turn, hopeless of
Justice at the hands of the ruling
parties, and appeal unto their
Caesar, the sovereign voters of the
State.
1t is for parties to choose their
policy and for the people to judge
of their choice; and voicing the
will. of the people, whose sole right
it is to direct, control and settle
all questions of public policy, the
FREEMAN dares to speak out and
speak plainly.
The action of the Republican
Convention, last week, puts both
leading parties in the same unhap-
ply plight before the Christian and
Temperance voters and praying
women of the State, who have for
years been petitioning and plead
ing for the right of self-preserva-
ton. AS organized parties, both
have deliberately and heartlessly
spurned the peoples repeated
prayers, by ignoring the one great
question of the submission of the
Amendment, that concerned them
above all other possible issues.
Thus, in the life and death
struggle between the Home ano
the Saloon, both parties have de
termined that the Home shall moi
have so much as an even chance
in the race. They still persist ir
securing, by license, a full length
the start to the Saloon in every
contest.
Thus have they done in the past
and thus they still do, studiousl!
refusing to allow the Home an ever
start with the Saloon at the ballo
box.
Failing of justice at the hand
of parties, our appeal is unto TN
People, who are the makers ant
must be the masters of parties.

The Spirit of the Traffic.

What kind of a foe are we fight
ing, and what kind of an ally are
the great parties seeking? If we
are conquered, what will be our
fate? And what can we hope from
rulers in league with such foe
Let US look a moment at the spirit
Of the liquor traffic.
1t possesses the most insatiate
spirit of rob berry. There is no pat
riotism, no interest in good govern
ment, no desire to build up the
country; but the sole aim is to
gather in the money Of The people
by a system that ruins their souls,
wrecks their homes, destroys their
property, violates their laws and
devastates their country. 1t is
true the business is legalized and
the money is not taken as rule
without the consent of the people );
bat the spirit Of robbers is there
all the same. Only a powerful
temptation is used instead of force
or stealth. The highway robber
presents a pistol with the demand,
"Your money or your life" The
saloon keeper presents a deadlier
weapon, with the more fearful de-
man, Your money and your life
One scares a man out of his money
and spares his life. The other
tempts man out Of his money by
a drug that destroys his life. 1t is
robbery in the one case as we'll as
in the other. The traffic need only
grow and thrive to utterly consume
the country in the end.
We see here the murderous spirit
also. The traffic deliberately kills
more than 10000 a year in this
country. The Devil is called a
murderer for tempting man to do
that which he knew would cause
his temporal and spiritual death.
Saloon keepers do the same thing,
and render themselves worthy of
of the same name, They regard
not the lives of their customers.
They sell them the cup of death,
till they get all they can out Of
them, and then see them die at
their hands with egret for the loss
of their custom, but not of their
bodies and souls.
The traffic also manifests the
spirit of the most savage cruelty. It
is not moved by the pain and sor.
row of its victims. 1t needs not the
cries of their starving children. 1t
laughs at the groans and agonies Of
their sorrow1ng mothers. 1t mocks
at the prayers and tears of their
broken-hearted wives. The perse.
cutors of the Inquisition tortured
their victims, because they deemed
it necessary to save their souls
The merciless savages tortured
their victims in revenge for the
wrongs received at their hands
But saloon keepers torture theil
victims simply because they car
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1884-08-06

Having looked in vain to par
ties, now let US look for men.
Wherever temperance voters can
find friend in a candidate, cleave
unto that candidate and stick to ham.

Our State Agent, DR.. Warner,
strikes the key note of the situa-
ton, in his appeal in this ISSUE
The free people have got the ballot
left. Let them use it without fear
or favorl
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1884-08-06

ordinary benevolence would hest
tate to engage in any bushes that
would be offensive to any consider
able portion of the population.
But these men engage in a bust
ness that is offensive to a majority
of the people, and that of the better
class, regardless of their feelings.
They put their saloons in the most
public places where they will be
most offensive. They insist on
continuing them there against the
most solemn and earnest protest.
When helpless parents and wives
beg them not to sell to hus-
bands and sons, they answer their
prayers by sending them home
drunk again, and while they laugh
and mock at the fruitless prayers
and agonies of soul-tortured moth
ers, they will savagely thrust the
dagger of sorrow deeper and deeper
into their hearts. Fruitless pray
ers, did say7 The judgment day
is coming, "And shall not God
avenge his own elect who cry day
and night, though he bear long
with them? ?" vengeance, is mine,
l will repay, saith the Lord"
The traffic further is full of the
spirit of characterization. 1t will
not submit to the will Of the ma
jority. 1t defes and violates the
laws that are made for its regula-
ton. 1t fights the Courts to the
bitter end. 1t brides juries and
intimidates authorities and resorts
to any and every device to defeat
the will of the people.
Saloon keepers organize, and seek
charters, and raise money for the
avowed purpose of resisting the
law. Witness their open rebellion
against the Scott law in Ohio, and
their bold defiance of the Prohibito-
ry law in a number of places in
Kansas and Iowa. They are not
abiding people. They make
law-breakers and they break law
makers. They are properly rele-
gated to the criminal classes.
Finally, the traffic possesses the
spirit of insolent tyranny. 1t
would crush everything in the way
of its own selfish ends. 1t insists
on lording it over the political par
ties and controlling the government,
1t resists the liberties of others and
insists on unwonted liberties for
itself. Whilst it everywhere de-
MES the sacred right of petition, it
goes to Congress and asks special
favors at the hands of the Ameri-
can people. We feel its tyrant
hand while it sits on the footstool,
and woe be to our liberties if it gets
on the throne.
This is the foe we are fighting |!
Shall we surrender? Shall we
even falter? With US it is victory
or worse than death. If we yield
the traffic will increase. 1t will
bind us with its chains. 1t will
rule our country. And then, like
jeremiah of old, we can only sit in
our helplessness and weep day and
night for the slain of the daught-
ers Of our people. We dare not
yield. Such foe must be conquer
ed. We are fighting in the name
of God and home and native land !;
and so sure as we fight and God
reigns, victory is ours.
This is the foe whose good will
and patronage the great political
parties are seeking. Can we trust
a party that is dominated by such
a foe? The Democrats promise it
