PRESS NOTES

Defending q preacher of the gospel.
and calling on church people to boy
colt a paper which dares tell the truth
about a preacher-politician, is enough
to cause an encore from the bOttOmless
pit.-Beloit Gazette.
A striking machine was in town Sat
urday. The crowd that gathered
around it and put up their nickels for
an opportunity 10 do a little hard work
before folks, was composed of the same
class as usual. They are the men who
invariably insist upon their wife splitting
the kinding wood Western Demo
crat.
The lower house of the Georgia leg
islature on the 18th inst. gave another
turn on the prohibition crank, which
is rapidly crushing personal liberty in
that State" A bin was passed in refer
ence to the few Georgia counties which
have not already adopted absolute pro
hibiuon. In over 100 of the 1873 coun-
ties of Georgia prohibition is now abso-
lutte. As to the other counties the bill
proposes that on petition a vote may be
bad every two years on the question
whether prohibition shall oe adopted,
and that when it is adopted it shall be
final and no further election on the sub
ject shall be held This is an impOr-
tant discrimination against license in
all forms. The bill passed the house
by the emphatic vote of 101 to p. 1t
now goes to the senate. Dissociated
from politics, the cause of temperance
has been making rapid progl ess IN sew
eral OF the southern States. The
Georgia temperance ref0rmer is not a
standing candidate for Office, nor does
he seem TO believe that the safety of the
country depends upon his being called
upon TO personally administer the law,

HALL7S
Vegetable SiciIian
HAIR REVIEWER

was the first preparation perfectly adapted to
cure diseases Of the scalp, and the first sue
cessful restorer of faded or gray hair to its
natural color, growth, and youthful beauty.
1t has had many imitatOrs, but none have so
fully met all the requirements needful for
the proper treatment Of the hair and scalp.
HALLS HAIR REVIEWER has steadily grown
in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness
TO every quarter Of the globe. Its unparaL
leled success can be attributed to but one
cause: the entire JtlLftEBellt Of as promises.
The proprietors have often been surprised
at the receipt of orders from remote coun-
tries, where they had never made an enortfor
its Introduction.
The use for a short time Of HALLS HAIR
REVIEWER wonderfully improves the per
sonal appearance. 1t cleanses the scalp from
all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and
dryness, and thus prevents badness. It
stimulates the weakened glands, and enables
them to push forward a new and vigorous
growth. The effects of this article are not
transient, like those of alcoholic prepare
tions, but remain long time, which makes
its use matter Of economy.

The following letter to the senior ed

Pennsylvania and Kansas about the first
of July,
STANTON, Pa, july 1, 1885.
In. c. Il. Le1vis,
DEAR SIR Although it IS some time
since saw you yet have by no means
forgotten you or the good people Of the
Burg. have been among the rocks
and hills of the Keystone state, which,
you know, rolled up $4,000 majority for
Blaine. Hnrrah!
Although this is my native state, yet
will bear no comparison with Kansas as
an agricultural state and it is very hard
to farm on account Of roots, rocks,
stumps, etc. This season has been very
cool this far. the corn is very late,
most OF it not six inches high yet. There
has been several frosts in June, and it Is
almost cool enough this evening for
frost. The wheat crop in this state was
injured the winter very much, in some
places so much that it viii not give the
seed. The oats crop promises good,
also the potato crop. The fruit crop,
such as peaches and cherries, was killed
by the winter. The apple crop is large
and small fruits are plenty 1 wish you
were here, and I would set up the
straw berries for you. Ne haYe some
very nice ones some measuring six
inches In circumference. 1 see by your
valuable paper that some farmers in that
county are growing small fruits. [ButI
must hasten.
/ expect to retarn to that part in the
spring. viii not write any more at
present Wishing you success IN your
editorial work, and jolly good time, I
am yours truly. j. r. BREAKEY.

Last Tuesday boy named Doyle aud
young companion, name not given, went out
hunting at Selma, at which place they live.
The Doyle boy attempted the same old trick
OF climbing over fence, dragging his gun
behind him grasped at the muzzle. AS a
matter OF course, the hammer caught in some
brush or on the fence and one barrel was dis
charged, emptying the load OF shot into the
palm OF Doyle's hand, the shot coming
out at the wrist on the back
Of the hand, making an ugly
looking wound. Fortunately for him being
Out OF wads he had loaded the gun with bit
OF paper, lightly, or the force of the ex-
plosion would have blown his whole hand
OIL. He made his way back to town and was
taken in charge by DR.. Battin, who thinks
Doyle will not lose the use Of his hand, which
is the right. Superintendent Fleming was
called to see the boy yesterday, as it was
thought it might be necessary to bring him
to the county infrmary here. This was not
the case, as he is well cared for where he is

PROHIBITION STATE con vs,rIO

Closing Proceedings Thursday Afternoon
--Organization Of state Exscu'ive Com
mittse-Nisss Meeting in the Wis wan In
the Evening.
Previous to the adoption Of the resolutions
Mrs. g. A. Lord, Of Georgis, arose in her
place upon the platform and made a Woman
Suffrage Speech calling attention to the fatal
omission of a suffrage" plank from the plat
form. Upon the adoption OF the resolutions
on motion of Mr.. Logan, OF Summit, 1t was
voted to telegraph the resolution concerning
Gen. Grant to that gentleman, with the chair
man and secretary OF the convention as
signers.
Mr.. Beauchamp then presented the matter
of the W. q. 7. u. debt and called Tor dona-
tons toward deirayiY it, the list being
headed by +. Schumacher, OF Akron, with
$lOo In all abou, $500 being secured.
Prof. John Reising at this point rendered
a cornet solo in an artistic manner.
Rev. Mr.. Merchant, OF Morgan county, i'm
proved favorable opportunity to discharge
into the very midst OF the convention, a res
olu,ion favoring the submission to popular
vote Of constitutional amendment granting
the right of suffrage to women in this State,
which on motion of Rev. DR.. Leonard, who
d clared the resolution out of order, was
tabl,d although the vote was so evenly divided
as TO make the chairman's duty of deciding
very delicate one, and an attempt to call a
division was made.
Mr.. J. II. Amos, of Cuyahoga, moved a
vote of thanks 10 the citizens of Springfield
for their hospitality in entertainment of the
convention, TO which Mr.. II. A. Thompson,
OF Westervlle added the officers OF the con-
ventiou, the band, singers and press, with
which amendment the resolution was unani-
mously adopted.
The next business was the increase Of the
list of volunteer campaign orators begun in
the morning session. II was stated that al
ready 800 speeches had been promised, and
as many more were added before all the cra-
tors had been heard from.
At 4:40, there being no further business,
the convention adjourned sine die.
A meeting of the newly-appointed State
Central Com nfnit,ee was .eld in the Arcade
hotel parlors Immediately upon the adjourn
ment OF the convention, at which 1t was de-
cided to locate Prohibition headquarters for
the campaign in Springfield. The following
State Executive Committee was chosen {:
Chairman, r. S. Thompson, of Springfield;
secretary, Wilbur Colvin, Springfield; Jay
Odell, Cleveland W. 7. Mills, Wooster; Mrs
Mary A. Woodbridge, Ravenns; J. b. Martin
Cincinnati; George f. Thlall, Columbus.
Springfield globe-republic. (Springfield, Ohio) 1884-1887, 1885-07-03

The new State Executive Committee met
in Wilbur Colvin's law Office at . O'Clock this
morning and talked over the prospects and
methods OF tie campaign very informally.
Hon. A. r. Ludlow was elected as Treasurer
of the Corsmitter Most OF the session,
which lasted only an hou', was occupied in
formulating and discussing the following
resolution which embodes in a few words
the principles on which the campaign will be
conductei:
Resolved, That we earnestly advise our
county local committees and friends to rigidly
exclude the discussion OF party political qucs-
tions from all temperance meetings held on
the Sabbath Day, and in oil their political
discussion in the press and on the platform
TO refrain from attacks upon personal clarac
ter
This precludes all mud throwing and po-
litical harangues from the pulpit. The com
mittee adjourned to meet at the same place
at o'clock p. N. next Tuesday, July 7. The
State headquarters OF the party will be a,
Calvin's Office. 1t looks very much as though
Springfield had grabbed the whole Prohibi.
ton pie this year, securing the head OF the
ticket, the convention and all the officers ol
the State committees.

Distinction with a Difference.

To the Editor Of the Globe Republic.
While listening to the several speakers at
the Prohibition Convention, | could not but
feel that an unfair use was being made of the
temperance movement in Georgia and other
Southern states. There 1t is not Prohibition
in the Northern sense. 1t is but q legal eI-
presslon OF an old Southern sentiment against
the public, open saloon multitudes in Ohio,
both Republicans and Democrats, could and
would vote for that if they had opportunity !;
but the Ohio Political Prohibitionists would
not be satisfied with such measure.
