THE New York Times quotes this
from "the Governor of one of the
most prosperous of Southern States"
on Mr.. Davis methods of keeping
himself before the public:
We looked tor him to say some
thing about union, or make some allu-
sion to the happy conditions under
which We have prospered since the
war. We don't want our children
taught that there is a hope of sepa-
ration of the States in the future, for
the country as whole is as dear to us
as to the North. Every living man
who was in the Confederate army
would offer himself today in defense
of the country. Such being the case,
Mr.. Davis ought to be polite enough
to avoid the expressions he has used.
He has hurt himself irredeemably
among US by not doing so. and the
best thing he can do now is to go
home. If he has no country and wants
none, he ought to remember that we
have"

blow over the eye, infiicting a severe

defied the authorities in true"cowboy"

Mayor then despatched deputy Sheriff
Condor after the fugitive. Helt get.
ting madden in the meantime, had his
wound dressed and started to help
officer Condor. They chased the

Alliance presented two bills, one
for Baltimore and the other for the
State 80 far as not under local Pro-
hibition. The bills embodied the
same principles as the Georgia and
Virginia laws, and provided that
when one-fourth of the voters Of
any county, district or ward should
petition, an election shcald be or
dered. 1t will 5e seen that the
Dill only created the machinery,
leaving the operation to the people.
A COMMITTEE OF THE ALLIANCE
headed by President Higgins, urg-
ed its passage before the Temper
ance Committee, but it was never
reported and the effort was
failure.
Not one of the Is members of the
Baltimore city delegation would
even consent to present petitions,
though signed by hundreds Of the
best citizens.

Queries Answered.

Shall the State Temperance Alliance
give its influence to the Prohibition
Party or mott
YES, because the Alliance
is pledged to secure Prohi-
bition of the liquor traffic, and the
Prohibition Party is the only politi-
cal party pledged to the same
principle.
Has the Maryland Nom-Parti-
san League done a~ythimg for
your county,
L never heard OF any such
organization except through
the Baltimore newspapers.
What of the night
Bright and promising for
the Prohibition Party and its
principles. The two old political
parties are not now divided on any
great issues, and it is mere,
scramble between them for the
"loaves and fishes" the entire fight
being as to who shall hold the
offices from cross roads postmaster
to the President of the United
States.
The Prohibition Party is the only
one that has A LIVE ISSUE, and the
voters of this country will soon see
that the very best thing to do is to
get rid of the rum curse from our
land. To this end, let all who are
fully persuaded that State and
National Prohibition is right and
necessary, continue to ogttate and
educate the voters of our country up
to our belief.
HE BEST WAY TO ACETATE is to
nominate straightout Prohibition
Party candidates for every Office at
every election.
Yours for Prohibition,

Cecil County Boys.

A re-submission of Local option has been
ordered by the Legislature, and the vote
will be taken next Fall.
Five out Of seven papers in the county
support Prohibition, and one is outspoken
for the Prohibition party. Six months ago,
not one of the above would define It's posi-
ton, and all sneered at the IS men who vo
ted the Prohibition ticket.
BOYS COMING TO THE FRONT.
The Star Temperance Society," composed
of boys of North East, in this county, is
circulating petition to be signed by the
boys throughout the county, requesting all
who are interested, "to use every honora-
BILE means in their power to secure the to-
tai prohibition of the Liquor Traffic." 1t
adds "We upon our part promise to use our
efforts, both now and in future years, to.
discountenance the use of intoxicating
drinks and also to prohibit their SALE" The
petition is printed and is being sent to all
the ministers in Cecil county, with the re-
quest to get the boys to sign ii.
Well done for the boys. Let them come
to the front.

The Antf.Temperance LegIsla-
turo.

The Maryland Legislature, re-
Gently adjourned, has notoriously
ignored the desires of the people
upon the Temperance question,
and has enacted laws which should
bring down upon it the odium OF
all good citizens.
1t has re-submitted Local Option
in three counties and part of an
other, which had been carried for
Prohibition by good majorities, and
has at the same time utterly refus-
ed to submit the question in any
county where liquor obtains. In
none of the last above counties was
there a Prohibition State or Coun-
ty ticket, 30 the re-submission can
not be ascribed to spleen on the one
hand or over zeal (O on the other.
In some counties where such tick
cts were nominated, and well sup
ported, all efforts at re-submission
proved abortive.

The Baltimore Conference.

The Baltimore M. E. Conference
has most gloriously redeemed itself
from the ignoble record of last
year, and keeps step with the adj
vance all along the line of Temper
ance Reform. The. resolution on
Temperance declare:
1. Endorsement of Local Option
30 far as operative in securing Pro-
hibition.
2. Constitutional and statutory
Prohibition, the end to be sought
and worked for.
3. Duty of National Government
to prohibit in the territories and
District of Columbia.
4. "That our thanks are due and
are hereby rendered certain men,
bers of Congress, Senators and 9TH
er prominent politicians for the de-
cisive and politically unpopular
stand they have taken on this
living ISSUE"
5. "That we will encourage and
in every proper way cooperate Nth
all organizations having for their
objective aim the prevalence of
Temperance truth, and the utter
destruction of the rum oligarchy."
What splendid encouragement to
the Prohibition Party is contained
in these two latter clauses. Thank
God, the old Baltimore Conference

A FEAST or REASON.
Bill of Fare at the Coming Baltimore
Meetings.

A feast of reason, indeed, is prom
ised all who may be 80 fortunate as
to attend the annual Conventions
of the Maryland State Temperance
Alliance and the Prohibition Party
Conference to be held at Baltimore,
April 20, 81 and %.
The mass meeting of the Alliance
on Tuesday evening, the Goth, will
be addressed by Senator Colquitt,
of Georgia, and Mrs. Mary T. La
throp, of Michigan, the Southeast
and theNorthwest lending their best
talent to arouse maryland, my

On the 21st, the Prohibitionists
will be addressed by DR.. A. B.
Leonard, of Ohio, and a grand mass
meeting, on Thursday night, the
I'D, will be addressed by DR.. Leon
ard and Mrs. Lathrop.
With such attractions, successful
meetings are assured, and, best of
all, harmony and good feeling will
prevail.

cause which is so fraught with the
country's veal.
There is every indication that at
the coming Convention, many who
last year honestly took issue with
the great majority, and who with
drew from the Alliance work to
form a Maryland Branch Of the Nom
partisan League, will return to the
old body which has done such
inestimable service in our State
Temperance work, and will again
strike hearty hands with Prohibi-
ton workers in the effort to redeem
our State from Rum Rule.
To all such let there be given a
warm welcome, and may the Con-
vention of $50 be the most harmo-
NOUS, enthusiastic and inhuen-
tial in the history of the Alliance.

Re.SubmIssiOn in Anne Arundel
County.

In Annapolis, where Prohibition was car
ried in 1882 by over 500 majority, the last
Legislature has forced re. submission of
the question, which will go to a vote of the
people April Is.
The campaign has been energetically in
augurated, and already Rev. G. II. Mead,
the southern missionary of the National
Temperance Society has been upon the field
and done good service in defence of Prohi-
bition.
This Legislature showed an astonishin g
readiness to undo the will of the people of
this county Perhaps the fact that "Prohi-
bition did prohibit" in the Capital of the
State, had squirting influence on our law
breaking law makers.
