A GREAT VICTORY!
Montgomery County Leads off in
the Work of Redemption!
Prohibition Triumphant!

Winona Times.
In no spirit of ungenerous or
arrogant exultation, but with a
deep and thankful sense of the i'm
mense value of the great work &C
complished, do we make the judi
liant announcement of the success
of Prohibition in Montgomery
county on Tuesday, the Sth day of
July. Let it be red-letter day in
the history of the county for all
time For we honestly believe that
the question decided on Tuesday
was the most important one, in its
bearings upon the future, that has
ever been submitted to a vote. The
great victory achieved here will send
it's triumphant fash over the entire
State, and arouse and encourage
other counties to go and do likewise.
Winona, our own little town, gal
lantly and gloriously leads the van.
Many of her most prominent business
men and property owners, turning a
deaf ear to the plea that Prohibition
would cripple the commercial pros
eprity of the town, nobly responded:
"Let it come. We will not let any
pecuniary considerations govern US,
but obey the higher impulse of
duty" And they did good service
in the good cause.
Winona was the great central
point of the struggle, and here the
contest was sharp. The young men
Of the country came to our help with
almost entire unanimity, and on the
morning of the election, as club
after club came marching in, assur-
ance ofsuccess deepened and bright
ened. All honor to the young men
of the beat and of the town who
thus helped in the great redemption.
Prohibitionists now feel like
shaking hands all round. To those
who differed with them they would
extend the right hand and say:
THE people have spoken; all unite
TO make the voice the unanimous
sentiment of the county, so that
within all her borders peace and
order may prevail"
The following is the official vote
of Montgomery county, at the cleo
tion held July s, 1884, on the ques-
tion Of License or prohibition"

Some structures on Judge Whar-

comply with the principal attorney
for the prosecution in the case:
BRANDON, Mss, June 2, 1884.
Judge T. J. Wharton, Yazoo City, Miss:
My Dear Sir-Yours of May 25th
received, and would have been an
swered, sooner, but / have been
absent from home. While / do not
think it proper for me to enter into
a controversy with the authors Of
the article you allude to in the St.
Louis Globe Democrat by making a
general reply to the article, l am
willing to give my statement as to
what l feel and think about the
Wheeler trial In Copiah county.
believe your whole desire was to
have a fair and impartial trial, and
that you exerted yourself to that
purpose. l know your bearing as a
Judge was, throughout the trial,
dignified, polite and courteous to-
wards every one. will say further
that throughout your judicial history
| have never seen a more impartial ,
upright and faithful Judge, nor have
l ever seen more cultured, Chris
tain gentleman than l regard your
self. AS to the change of venue,
while / was of the opinion that it
would have been proper it was a
matter about which minds might
differ. AS to the verdict which was
in the province of the jury and not
the Judge, / can only say the jury
reached conclusion different from
mine, for if l had not thought the
defendcnt guilty l would not have
prosecuted him for murder.
In your vindication you may use
this letter in any way you see proper,
and l am glad that l have the OPP
portunity Of writing it in justice to
you, for ! am sure any one who
reads the article impugning your
character would agree with me if he
had been present at the trial.
Faithfully yours,
A. j. MCLAURIN.

PROHIBITION IN MISSISSIPPI

No friend of peace and good gov
eminent can fail to be gratitied at
the rapid aud steady progress this
great cause has made in Mississippi
within the last few years, and es-
pecially within the last two or three
On first page will be found cir
cular recently issued by Rev. j. II.
Gambrell, State Lecturer, giving in
condensed form the work thus far
accomplished, and which furnishes
ample encouragement for still
greater effort and zeal. We may
also say here that to Mr.. Gambrell
personally belongs much credit for
the splendid showing he is enabled
to make. His fidelity and zeal have
been remarkable, and at times he
has labored under the most dis
couraging circumstances, yet with
that courage and determination
which are only born of deep convic
tion and a sense of duty to Others.
He has also devoted much study
and preparation for the work in
which he is enlisted, and is no doubt
better posted on the liquor question,
in all OF its phases, than any other
man within the State.
With the victory achieved in
Montgomery county last week, Pro
hibitionists have fresh reason to
take courage. The cause should
never be allowed to lag on account
of lack of financial support, and we
are assured it will not. Let there
be an advance all along the line.

The Work of the National Demo-
cratic Convention.

The deliberations of this great
body, extending over four days of
last w,ek, while bringing disap-
pointmcnt to the unsuccessful can
didates and their immediate sup
porters, taken as a whole, terminatd
most happily. While not our first
choice, We conceive the ticket to be
among the best that could have
been named. The popularity Of
Cleveland FAR exceeded that of the
Plumed Knight in Convention No.
l., and the vote for him was practi-
cally unanimous on the second bal
lot. His nomination, demanded by
the overwhelming sentiment of the
party, will be hailed as an omen of
success all over the United States
from the lakes to the gulf, from
Maine to California. The associa-
ton of the name of Thos. A. Hen
bricks with that of New York's
Governor brings into the campaign
the great Republican crime of 1876.
Samuel j. Tilden steps aside. With
his approval his friends and admir-
ers put into his place Grover Cleve-
land, the heir to his reform prin-
ciples as well as to his State and
National honors. Cleveland and
Hendricks stand practically as the
representatives of Tilden and Hen
bricks. Governor Cleveland's nomi-
nation means a triumph for the
better element of the party and for
better methods of Government and
reform over machine and disap-
pointed office holders. Fortunately
these candidates stand on q sound
platform. The convention has made
no blunder either in it's choice OF
men or it's declaration of principles,
Nothing in the platform is objec
tionable TO any Democrat. 1t con
tains not a word in favor of free
trade, not a word about revenue
only" Yet it unites the party
Morrison, Watterson, Carlisle, Ran
dali and Converse stand on it, side
by side. There is in this no renun
citation of principle. The happy
result is simply due to the adoption
Of a conservative middle ground
favoring a tariff for revenue witt
reasonable protection limited to The
necessities of the Government anC
opposed both to high protection ant
free trade.
With such candidates on such :
platform, victory ought not to b.
doubtful. "
