Jealous Master.
Galveston, March 23.-The News Laredo,

through the city to-day when it became
known that across the river in the town of
Laredo Nueva, Mexico, there had been COM

recorded. Certain details are suppressed. A
Mexican had becomej Jealous of his mistress
q young Mexican girl about eighteen. GO
ing to her room at daylight he locked the
door, Invested her of all her clothing, Sc
curely tied her to the wall with ropes and
then deliberately cut strips Of flesh from
various parts Of her body, and under threats
Of cutting out her heart, compelled her to
eat her own flesh.
Her frantic screams finally brought as
sistance, Just as the human fend had
finished cutting of the end Of her tongue.
The brute was arrested and jailed. The
victim is dying this evening.

The Governors Message.

The FREEMAN is under obliga-
tions to His Excellency, Governor
Jackson, for pamphlet copy of
his Biennial Message to the Legis-
lature.
From the examination we have
had time to give it, it seems to be
eminently straightforward bust
ness document from beginning to
end. 1t is frank in its review of
the several State Reports and bold
in its recommendations
The suggestions as to abolish
ing the "Irreducible School Fund"
should be considered by the Legis-
lature with great care, and if some
way can be devised to make this
fund in fact srredacible, we think it
would make largely for the future
Interests of the State.
Among the wisest and most i'm
portant recommendations of the
Governor, is that in reference to Co.
Education in the University. The
Message treats of this pressing sub
ject at some length. This portion
of the document, with such flu,
Their observations as may seem
fitting, our readers shall have in
next issue.

country members of county and
district party organizations and all
the intelligent signers of these vol
umes of individual petitions, are
unreasonable, and would come to the
Legislature with an unreasonable
prayer. But all this presumptive
testimony aside--who is he that
will stand up and say this prayer
of the people is unreasonable?
The people are groaning and ago
pizing under an infamous and cruel
curse, and after suffering under it
and studying it in all its hideous
aspects, they simply ask that they
may decide for themselves as to the
time and manner of its removal. Is
his ON unreasonable prayer? Surely
not.
But even granting the possibili-
ty OF a mistake on the part OF the
people as to the practicability or ex-
pediency Gas some insist Of the pro-
posed remedy for the admitted
curse, surely an intelligent discus
sion for two years will prevent the
consummation of the mistake.
And if the discussion should de-
feat Prohibition and teach the peo-
pie better and more efficient reme-
dy for the evils of the Liquor-T
fc, surely the State can we'll afford
the small expense of taking the
vote for so great good secured to
the people.
Surely there is no reason why the
peoples reasonable prayer should
not be granted.

THE WAR OPENS.
Whisky Rebellion in Kentucky.

The Cincinnati Enquirer gives
full particulars of an open rebellion
against the recent stringent Prohi-
bition law enacted for Rockcastle
county, KY.
A number of saloon keepers
banded together to defy the law,
and openly declared their purpose
to fight for their privilege to de-
bauch and destroy the people.
Warrants were sworn out and
officers sent to arrest the offenders.
The officers were resisted and driv-
en- off. The sheriff then gathered
posse and surrounding the saloon
where the law-deGers had assem-
bled for defense, sought to reason
them into surrender. During the
parley one of the besieged fred on
the posse and thereupon all at
tempted to escape. The fire was
returned by the Sheriff's party,
with the result of one man killed
and several wounded.
The officials are determined that
the rebellion shall be quelled and
the law indicated.

If Dakota is to have a Democrat

the liquor traffic. That civiliz-

and encourage by law, "the whole

Signing the Petitions.

Notwithstanding the strange
and unaccountable opposition on
the part of many hitherto ardent
friends of our cause in West Vir-
GINA, the petitions to the Legisla-
ture have been largely signed, and
in some counties, where ;ney fell in
to the hands of true men, they have
been generally circulated. That
good cause should be opposed by
its friends from any spirit of pique
or spite, is of itself sad common
tary on human nature, and is
sufficient answer to any skeptic as
to the doctrine of total depravity.

Again!

On Monday, Mr.. Fisher of Brax-
tor County introduced before the
House of Delegates at Wheeling,
joint resolution No. 8 proposing a
Prohibitory Amendment to the
Constitution of this State.
Never in the history of West Vir-
ginia has any other matter Of equal
im portance claimed the attention
Of her Legislature.
The annual liquor bill of West
Virginia IS not less than $SOOOOO.
1t equals the entire revenues paid
into the State Treasury. Thus
the money wasted is itself a drain
upon the people equal to the State
. tax. The misery, crime, and other
evils following in it's train make it
4 burden upon the people four fold
greater than all taxation.
What shall be done about it?
The Legislature is again asked
to submit the question to vote of
the people of the State.
Is it matter of so trifing i'm
portance that the Legislature will
deny the people this right when
thousands of her best citizens are
respectfully asking it? We think
not.

was introduced in the House of

What do they Ask!
Is Their Prayer ReasomdbleF

What is it the people are asking
of the Legislature? And IS their
prayer reasonable?
In answering these questions, let
it be first mentioned that it is no
new thing they are asking. 1t is
a matter that has been pressed up
on the attention of many Legisla-
lures for years past, and will con-
tinue to confront the Legislative
bodies of every State in the Union
until the prayer of the people is
answered ; for it is fact incontro-
vertible, that when free people set
their hearts on great reform they
never stop short of success. One
by one the great States have yield
ed to the persistent demands of the
people to deal directly with the Ii
quor question, and now the upris-
ing has become we'll nigh univer-
sal and will soon be invincible. 1t
requires no prophet to see in the
near future the results of longer
resistance to the peoples persistent
and repeated petitions in this be-
half.
The people are not asking the
Legislature to pass law affecting
anybody's rights or property.
They are simply saying, let us, the
people of the State, and who are
the State, decide for ourselves,
what laws shall govern US and
what measures we shall take to
protect ourselves and save our
families from great and continu-
GUS and damning curse in our
midst. They say submit to our
votes, as our Constitution provides,
an Amendment to that Constitu-
ton, which Amendment we insist
will be vastly to the interests of the
State, morally, physically and f.
nancially, in which opinion we in
sist that large majority of the
sovereign voters of the State will
concur
Is it asked, who are the people
praying for the submission of the
Amendment prohibiting the drink
traffic? We answer, every Christian
denomination in the State have for
mally and repeatedly asked it in
their general meetings. Every
Sunday School Convention has ask
ed it.
Many of the Teachers Institutes
throughout the State have asked
it, County and district political
Conventions of all parties, in all
parts of the State have declared in
favor of the peoples right to be
heard on the question. And be-
sides all this, thousands upon thou
sands of the sovereign voters of the
State have repeatedly sent up their
individual petitions.
And now, we submit, without
going further, that the second gues=
ton, propounded at the outset, is
already answered. For it will not
do to say that all the intelligent
Christian people of the State-all
the Sunday School workers-all the
School Teachers nearly all the
