Disorder In Elkton

Mr. EDITOR: On last Sunday morning
the order-loving inhabitants of our town
were startled with reports of acts Of vio-
lence and disorder resulting from drunk
enness, occurring in the rear of certain
saloons in the Hollow. Some of our peo-
Pile it seems were stirred up to petition
the town commissioners to examine their
authority under the charter to increase
the police of the town. and that in com
pliance with the prayer of the petition
ers the board met and appointed Mr..
VIM 7. Bonlden as policeman to aid
the town bailiff in enforcing the laws for
the prosecution of the public peace. All
this is well and deserves commendation.
A rumor is prevalent. however, that the
town commissioners Instructed the town
bailitf to procure warrant for the arrest
of the persons engaged i'll the disord derby
proceeding aforesaid; and furthermore
that the application for the warrants was
made to one of our Justices of the Peace
who refused, it is said, to issue them.
Can this be fact. that a couservator of
of the peace would under these circum-
stances refuse this warrant? Let even
handed justice, we say, be measured out,
so that no disorderly person NAV escape,
whatever his social position may be- or
who may be his friends. Y.

The prompt conviction in the Circuit
Court last week of man named Wal
tiers who has been openly and dehantly
violating the present Local Option law
at Perryville, and the imposition of a
penalty of $500, and one months i'm
prisonment in the county Jail, ought to
be worth something as demonstrating
the possibility of enforcing even &c
fective law. The testimony given by
this man, was something amazing. He
swore that he was born in Poland, that
on coming to this country he landed
in North Carolina, and after living in
that state some time he finally came to
Perryville in this county. That in all
his American career he had never
touched, tasted, or handled that inebri-
atipg beverage known as whiskey. That
he had never kept any in or about his
house at Perryv;lle, and was absolutely
ignorant of such a drink The value
put upon his testimony was evidenced
by his prompt conviction, upon the
unimpeached testimony Of other wit
nesses who had bought and drank
whiskey at his house.
Can the advocates of a High License
system argue in the face of this mans
conviction, that prohibition doesn't
prohibit" and that it is impossible to
secure conviction under a Prohibitory
law? Can they assert truthfully that it
Is any more difficult to secure the nee
essary testimony to convict under a
Prohibitory, than under a restrictive
system? We have lately shown by the
statistics of our criminal court, that the
number of convictions is larger in pro-
portion to the whole number of prose-
cutons under the present law, than
under the old license system. The
inference then is reasonable, that the
oft-repeated assertion that no Prohibi-
tory can be enforced, as an objection,
is more -forcible against license system
than against an absolutely Prohibitory
one.

audacious political domination of the

no sense its proper work.
90. Because England failed one
hundred and fifty years ago to suppress
its rational curse of gin drinking by
the imposition of prohlbtory tax,
therefore, Prohibition is impracticable
in Cecil county to-day.
Speaking ironically, the analogy of
this argument is at once apparent, since
no perceptible advance in civilization
has been made within the period NAM
ed, and the social, political, and educa-
tional conditions of the people Of Cecil
county, are precisely the same. as those
in England century and a-half ago.
Seriously is it not just the contrary
the fact?
CO... That no Republican can con
sistently discriminate against candl
date on local issues. That every pro,
fessed Republican owes allegiance te
his party candidate solely as matter
of unreasoning partnership. In othe1
words, you are to vote for the devil i
he be your party nominee. There is
higher demand than this upon the in
telligence of Republicans.
We have no reason to doubt the sin
cerity of Mr.. Bonds expressed sympa
thy for every measure looking to The
improvement Of the condition OF hi
fellow-men, but his position so far a.
his letter defines it, is certainly not il
accord with the best sentiment OF hi
party, especially as recently declared
by conventions of Republicans in al
the great States, and only last week b.

MIR. BOND ON PROHIBITION

We give place in this issue to a
lengthy letter from Mr.. John r. Bond,
elected by our reference last week to
his misconception of the cause which
prejudiced his candidacy for the State
Senate last fall.
Mr.. Bond admits that we cid not
mistake his hostile attitude toward Pro-
hibtion then, nor does he intend that
others shall misunderstood it now.
Summarized the salient points of his
letter are these:
%. Prohibition is moral question.
The Republican party has nothing to do
either with the morals or the con-
sciences of the people, therefore, it
should have nothing to do with prohi-
bition, or prohibition with it.
(2). The Church should teach So
briefly and the proper use of Rum. The
State-which under our form of gov
eminent means in its best sense Party
should not trench upon the Church
in matters of morals and conscience,
by this means politics can be kept be-
yond their influence.
CD. We believe that the moral con-
viction of the American people of the
iniquity of slavery, gave birth to the
Republican party. BY Mr.. Bonds
view this is mistake IF his position
be correct, it was not the assertion Of
conscience In politics that inspired its
great leaders. Then these men among
whom Abraham Lincoln is the great
type, did not in their moral convictions
simbolize a purified Republic, based
upon the moral recognition of universal
liberty, and the political equality of all
men.
ca. Mr.. Bonds question elias the
Republican party taken new depar
ture, does it propose to enforce the
dogmas and theories of every over

and moderate ones imposed in their ROOM
The consequences were highly beneficial
and Immediate stop was put To SNUG
CLING and to the serious crimes and dis
orders connected with it while in drink
ing to say the least, was not increased by
change" After showing the effect upon
Scotland and Ireland was similar, this
comment is made. "All these instances
sufficiently prove that any attempt to
check the excessive practice of spirit
drinking in a country by imposing heavy
| duties and restrictions, Is SO far from
having the desired effect that it actually
promotes the consumption of spirits, and
leads to a whole catalogue of evils in the
shape of adulteration, smuggling, per
jury, vexatious informatiOns, tumult and
rebellion against constituted authorities.
Can you find truer, more graphic pic
ture of the working of prohibition? Are
not the same things being enacted here
every day? Can you wonder, believing
that the statement made by high author
ity on prohibitory laws to be true, that
have no faith in them? Excuse my di-
erosion. the chance was too opportune
to explain my position on this question
to resist EN- braciug IL.
Again let me ask you. why does not
the Prohibition party declare its princi-
Piles, nominate its candidates. and stand
or f Ill by its declarations; in that event
it would be entitled to due respect, but
to force itself upon the Republican party
looks like an effort to destroy that party
Oh an issue fore ign to its formation.

Once more to return. For the life of me
l cannot understand how you discrimi-
nate between State Senator and Con-
gresham in voting? One is no less a
Republican because he runs for differ
ent Office under the people. You say you
would have supported me for Congress.
My heartfelt thanks tor the concession
and the self abnegatiou in the acknowl

To conclude this somewhat dry and
