We Hit Him Again.

The West Virginia FREEMAN, the
Parkersburg Prohibition organ,
again devotes over column to a
studied and malicious misrepre,
sentation of the Intelligencer. There
is no more Unfair method known
to degraded journalism than that
-shis alleged FREEMAN employs to
place the Intelldgencer in false
light before the public.-Intelligen-
Ger.
It is an easy matter for the Intel
ligencer to make such charges as
the above, but not quite so easy to
prove them.
AS we quoted in full the re.
marks upon which our comments
were based, it is hard to see where
there was any opportunity for mis-,
representation.
The facts in the case are just
this: The Intelligencer made an at
tack upon the Chief of Police tor
stopping the gamblers from plying
their trade On the Fair Grounds.
We quoted the article, and gave
our opinion of it; whereupon the
IntelLigencer flies into rage, calls
names, accuses US of "malicious
misrepre sent ation," etc.
Now, We claim that these charg-
es are made without any founda-
ton in fact; and as the Intelligent
Ger did not permit its readers to
see the article which called them
forth, it has been guilty of grossly
disappearing US to its readers.
If it can quote anything from the
FREEMAN which will prove its
charges, let it do so. If not, let it
either retract. or admit that it has
descended to one Of the most un.
fair methods known to "degraded

BREWERS CONVENTION.
Fighting Prohibition, and In
Fine Financial Con-
ditiOn.

PEORIA, ILL, Sept. 15.-The Sixth
Annual Convention of the Liquor
Dealers Malt and Brewers Associ-
alton was held in this city to-day.
A permanent organization was ef-
fected, and the election of next
years officers was postponed until
tomorrow. One hundred and fifty
delegates we're present, and the ad-
dress of the Board of Trustees was
full of scathing sentiment against
the Prohibition movement. The
Association is in a fine financial
condition.
There is much nourishment for
weakened Temperance people in
the last two paragraphs of the
above dispatch.
If Prohibition is Intellectual, as
partisan politicians urge, why do the
liquor men organize and procla i'm
"scathing sentiment against the
Prohibition movement" and spend
hundreds of thousands of money to
hinder and delay it?
The last statement that the CAS-
ISOLATION is in fine financial condi-
tion," is suggestive of the fact that
when the leech is full of blood the
victims veins are empty.

Ohio MethOdiStS.

The bull-dozing Efforts of the
Com. Gazette and other partisan
thugs to drive Ohio Methodists to
false grounds, have utterly failed.
We have noticed the Ohio Confer
ences closely,and in every instance
where Republican zealots have
tried to induce them to take parti-
san grounds against the Prohibit
tion party, they have been signal
ly rebuked. The Conferences have
invariably and boldly stood their
ground in favor of Prohibition, re-
pudiating alike the cowardly posi-
ton of the Republican and Demo.
cratic parties in favoring taxation
and license. The Ohio Methodists
are both sound and firm.

That Model Union.

All our FREEMAN friends who
were SO fortunate as to attend the
Mt. Lake Park Interstate w. G. T.
U. Conference, have been very i'm
patient for the "Model Union,"
which we had hoped to give them
several weeks ago. We have been
delayed and hindered, beyond all
our own patience with ourselves;
but here we have it at last, nearly
two pages of it, in this issue. If it
does come late, we are sure our
friends will enjoy it none the less.
There's good, rich, palatable meat
all through it. Read it and hand
the paper to your neighbor, not
forgetting to ask the neighbor to
subscribe for the FREEMAN. If you
want a copy to file, send for it.
If you want the "Model Union"
in pamphlet form, with DR.,
Smiths splendid address, and the
Proceedings and reports Of the con-
ference complete, send five 2 cent
stamps for the Conference Minutes,
just now coming from the binders.

Personal Liberty.

The saloonists say they want
"personal liberty" There are some
other people who want personal
liberty, too.
Young ladies, who cannot pass
through the streets of our cities,
unattended, even in the broad light
of day, without fear Of insult from
drunken saloon loafers, would like
to have a little personal liberty.
Women and children who are
compelled to 60 hungry and cold
that the saloonists may pocket the
earnings of their husbands and
fathers, would like a little personal
liberty.
Taxpayers who are burdened al
most beyond endurance by the ex-
pense of supporting the paupers
and prosecuting the criminals pro-
duced by intemperance, would like
to have little more personal lib
erty.
Wives who are being slowly
murdered by the cruelty Of drunk
en- husbands, would be glad to have
a taste of personal liberty.
Ministers who are driven from
their pulpits and subje cted to all
kinds Of spiteful persecution by
whisky apologists for daring to ex-
press their honest political convic-
tions, would be glad to enjoy per-
sonal liberty.
By all means, let US have person
al liberty; and as the first step to-
wards securing it, let US drive ev-
cry saloon out of existence, since
they are the very worst foes to hui
man liberty that the world has ev-
er seen.

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. %, 1885
Our Reckless NeighbOr.

Our neighbor, the State Journal,
appears to draw its Temperance
news from very untrustworthy
source.
In the issue of September 18th,
it says, Henry Ward Beecher
writes to the New York Post Es-
press, denouncing Prohibition"
Now, considering the fact that
there is no such paper in existence
as the "New York Post Erpress,"
and that Mr.. Beecher has not ode
nounced Prohibition" at all, we
submit that fidelity to its readers
demands that the Journal seek some
better source of information.
By the way, can the Journal give
any authority whatever for Its
statement that the majority of the
Cincinnati Conference regard DR..
Leonard's course as a disgrace to
the ministry The account given
by the Com. Gazette, DR.. Leonard's
bitter enemy, warrants no such
conclusion.
On the contrary, the Conference
promptly suppressed every effort
to in any way reflect on DR.. Leon
ards conduct or candidacy.

Apology to Virginia.

We were greatly perple1ed on
finding an ugly error in the Finan-
cial Report of the Conference Min
utes, which are now coming from
the binders hands. The report is
correct as found in this issue follow
ing the "Model Union" But as it
appears in the Minutes, by a blum
der in correcting the final proof,
the $50, contributed by Virginia
to Conference expenses, was chang
ed to IS. The total footing is cor
rect, requiring this item to be $50,
as it was before the laundering
change. This is our opology to
generous Virginia. The total ex-
pense footing is also correct, though
by mistake the last side footing is
omitted, as the Report appears In
the Minutes.

This is certainly most valuable

so pages, and would be read with
delight by all earnest W. G. T. U.
workers, if they but knew what
was in it and how to get it.

Starving the Preachers.

The Pittsburgh Christian ADVOCATE
has an able and scathing article on
"West Virginia Conference Sala-
ries," by Hon. G. W. Atkinson.
The rapid emigration circumference
talent to better fields in the West,
is reviewed with much anxiety for
the future of the Conference, and
starvation cited as the cause. An
appeal is made to the churches to
pay their preachers if they wish to
keep them.
Mr.. Atkin son shows from the
Conference Minutes of last year,
that the average salary to West
Virginia ministers, was only
$389.06, and that the Central Hi
nois Conference, to which num-
Der of West Virginia ministers
have recently gone, paid an aver
age of s773, "a, lacking but $2.14 Of
being double that paid in the W.
Va. Conference.
This is certainly a lamentable
showing, and yet we are very sure
there are other denominations in
our State that would gain no cred
it by comparing figures with the
M. e. Conference.
We have purpose in noticing
these sad facts, and that is, to en-
phasize Mr.. Atkinson's appeal to
the churches to quit starving their
preachers, and keep them in West
Virginia, where they are needed as
much as in the West.
