publicans, and we shall draw from
both. 1t depends altogether upon
the locality in which the vote is
cast as to whether it will affect the
the Republicans more seriusly than
the Democrats, or vice versa. In,
Ohio we shall probably deplete the.
Republican ranks more than their
opponents, while in the recent cleo
tons in Kentucky We drew more
from the Democratic party"
lis the Prohibition movement
as an organized sentiment making
much progress in the South ?"
at has been making most won-
derful advances in that section of
the country. Look, for instance,
at the Kentucky elections. In 1884
it polled little over four hundred
votes. This August the Prohibi-
ton vote showed an increase of
1900 per cent, and it carried thir-
teen counties. Look at Georgia,
too. 1t is nearly a Prohibition
State. The number Of its dram.
shops in proportion TO those of
New York State, and in proportion,
to the respective populations.
is as one to seven. Mississippi has
eight hundred dram-shops to Cali
fernia's ten thousand. Prohibition
is in favor in Tennessee and even
in Texas. 1t is, in fact, growing
everywhere"
ITO what do you attribute the
great augmentation in the number
Of Prohibition voters?
ITO the cowardice of the Repub--
licans and Democrats. They have
no issue between them. There is
nothing to influence the people to
side with them. except the distri-
button of few fourth class Post
Offices. Their platforms are alike,
to all intents and purposes, and.
they are both run by the -
grog-shop. Some twenty years ago

Republicans and Democrats, but
now it is impossible"

Prohibition in Sweden.

Bishop Hurst, writing of his
travels ia Sweden, in the Western
Advocate, thus speaks of the TEN.
perance Cause in "Gefe, a beauti.
ful city situated on a gentle bay
reaching in from the Gulf of Both
MA" which place, he says, may be
taken as safe specimen of the
growth of the Temperance cause
throughout Sweden. There are on
ly four saloons in the whole city, or
one for every four thousand inhab-
ltants. Already men of prominence
are coming out boldly in favor of
this good work. Last night, at a
social service in the Methodist
Episcopal Church, was introduced
70 Sodermark, acknowledgement
OF Smaland, who is a bold and
strong advocate of total abstinence.
1t does not injure a man nova
days in Sweden, either socially or
politically, to be recognized as an
advocate of total abstinence.-Pro-
hsbIsonist.

Progress of Prohibition.

Ex-Governor John P. St. John,
the late Prohibitionist candidate
for the Presidency, in an interview,
says: 1.-THE prohibition movement
is spreading all over the country,
and is penetrating into the furthest
corners, growing stronger day by
day. The movement will never
stop till it has removed every dram
shop inthe land. It will not, and
ought not, to stop short of that"
What effect will it have upon
the election in Iowa, Ohio and
New York this fall ?"
II can't tell you that. That
question can be best answered after
it's effect will have been felt and
appreciated. In Ohio the Prohi-
bitionists will poll four or five times
the number of votes they did at
the election last fall. I can't say
that L expect our Prohibition can
didates will be elected in Ohio, but
we will elect our principles by an
overwhelming majority. In New
York we will poll about three times
the vote we had in last Novem her !"

the Prohibition vote come in these
States, the Republican or Demo-
cratic ?"

Mrs. Woodbridge at Piedm ont.
September "a. 1885.

September "a, 1885.
Mrs. Mary Woodbridge, of Ohio,
addressed an audience at the Opera
House at this place last night,
composed of more than five hun
dred of the most attentive and ap-
preciative people that ever sat be-.
fore a public speaker The Rev.
Henry Baker presided and made
the Introductory speech. The Rev.
erend gentleman was in the hap
piest of moods and made telling
hits continually, and worked his
audience up to the proper pitch to
fully enjsy the magnificent and ell
oquen: talk Of Sister Woodbridge.
The lady spoke for more than an
hour and held her auditors SPELL
bound by the resistless logic and
apt illustrations she presented.
Upon every side she touched this
growing question, and clinched ev-
cry argument with an appeal in
behalf of the Prohibition Party.
The people are to-day discussing
the question as never before in this
community, and the general ver-
dict is that much good has been
done. We hope for results from
this beginning of our efforts that
shall tell foroibly in the near fu-
ture.
The Hon. T. R. Carskadon, of
Keyser, followed Mrs. Woodbridge
in few well-chosen remarks,
which were received in the best
spirit by the people. The Gilbert
cornet band furnished music DUR -
ing the evening.

Oil Spring Library Association.

Or the evening of September 10,
the Oil Spring Musical and Libra.
~ Association gave Concert, con-
sisting of instrumental and vocal
music. The Reformation" song
sung by Prof. Smith, and the sing
ing by the juvenile class seemed to
be in special favor with the au-
dience, but no less was the song en-
titled the "Oil Spring Medley"
1t was received with continued
applause and was called for the
second time.
The receipts of the concert will
be used in paying for a public H.
brary at that place. This is the
first move toward forming a pub
lie library in this County that has
given evidence of success. They
now have 100 copies of we'll selec-
ted books, as nucleus around
which to form a public library.
They have also purchased good
bookcase, and have taken meas
ures to secure the proper care of
their books. They will add new
books as they can.
The people Of Oil Spring certain
~ have taken an unusual interest in
education. The advantages to be
derived from public library are
very great, while the cost is NOM
inal. The fee of membership will
bring to the person investing
threefold income. 1t secures for
him the privilege of reading good
books, and will be used in obtain
ing new ones. By this method,
the people will be able at small
cost to keep up with the advance
ments in literature and learning.
This takes a little tact, energy,
and work, but are we not taught
that no worthy action is ever done
without some cost?
1t is an investment that pays a
greater dividend than any other a
community can make. Would
you have the children read nothing
but good books, you must place
good books within their reach.
The child will and must have food
to develop it's mind; and if good
food is not within its reach, it will
take what it can get.
Then if you want the young
people of your community TO grow
up in culture, refinement, and
above all to be temperate, you must
see to their education.
The dram-seller makes the en-
trance of the road to ruin as pleas
ing and enticing as he can. You
are crying for prohibition; then,
make the road to virtue, culture,
and refinement as pleasing and en-
ticing as you can. Out-rival the
dram seller and you will have no
trouble in defeating him.
Can you do it more easily than
by securing good books for the
young? M. E. G.
