JOHNSON cry IN THE FoREFHoNT.
A few weeks since, a grand move
ment was inaugurated in Johnson
City, which eliminated recently ina
glorious victory. A petition was got
ten up and signed by about three
iourths OF our voting population re-
uuesting the city fathers to pass an
ordinance closing the liquor saloons
from dark until daylight Another
petition to the same effect was circu-
lated among the ladies, receiving the
signature of nearly everyone to whom
it was presented These petitions
we're presented to the board OF Alder
men and after pretty hard fight an
ordinance, with heavy penalties pass
ed a final reading and will take effect
on the first day Of December. This
movement was the developement OF a
happy conception on the part OF its
originaaors, whoever they may have
been, all honor to them, as we'll as the
one hundred and forty-hve voters who
so promptly affixed their signatures to
the petition. God bless the noble wo-
men Of johnson City who gave the
strength 81 their moral influence il
support Of the movement. All honor
too, to our young, but heroic city at
torney, who plead SO yaliantly ant
cloqnently for the right All honor I,
the three Aldermen who stood "like
stone wall in defence OF highe
manhood.
No more midnight reveling at thu
saloons of Johnson City after the frs
day Of December. God speed the da,
when they shall be closed both da,
and night and closed forever. On
wardl we good people of Johnson City
stop not falter not until the accuses
rum power shall be crushed out, an
the reproach upon our Civilization
wiped ont forever.
