The FREEMAN
For a Dollar.
NOW'S THE TINE TO PUSH
THINGS.

Our special offer, as already an
nounced, is to send The FREEMAN,
at rate of One Dollar Year to all
new subscribers secured between
now and November next.
The FREEMAN has no other bust
ness or purpose than to rencsr Tia
best possible service in the cause
of Prohibition to the largest pos.
sible constituency.
If it can materially enlarge its
constituency, it can come and con-
tinue to come at one dollar. 1t is
for our friends to say whether its
su description lists shall be doubled
or tfebled. If they so decide. the
matter is settled.
If Prohibition sentiment is de-
veloped and crystalized into law, it
must be done largely through the
medium of Temperance papers,
To get these papers into fami-
lies, requires the active work Of
friends in every neighborhood.
We earnestly ask all such friends
to whom this message comes, to
start at once the work of getting
up

Texas Baptists for Pro hIbi-
ton.

The Baptist General Conference
at Waco, Texas, unanimously pass
ed the following:
at has been attempted to ere
strict" the liquor business by high
license. We had as well try to re-
strict the poison of the asp or the
venom of the adder. We had as
well set bounds to cyclone, or put
a cover of gauze over the crater Of
Vesuvius. The whisky business
does not restrict. No law that has
ever been made for its restriction
has been enforced. There is not q
saloon keeper in Texas that obeys
the laws intended to restrict" his
infamous business. In the face of
these sad facts, brethren-for they
are sad facts-there is but one duty
before US as Christian men. That
is to work and watch and pray to
the end, that this infamy may be
blotted from the land. Nor is this
all. While we must, as Christians,
work and watch and pray, we
must, as citizens, VOTE against this
hydra-headed monster. Let us
face the issue as an issue of fact"

ALONG THE PROHIBITION
LINES.

RHODE IsLAND.-In spite of all
predictions that the summer resorts
of Rhode Island would not pay ex-
penses under prohibition, the re-
ceipts of the Ocean House, New
port, for last week, were greater
than those of the corresponding
week last year, including receipts
from the bar.
BAY STATE.-The Massachusetts,
State Prohibition Convention will
be held in Worcester, Sept. Sth.
Preparations are being made for 2
large convention and a vigorous.
campaign.
CHIcAao.-A forcible illustration.
of the workings of the whisky ring
is afforded by the fact that Milwau-
kee brewers have recently paid
$4,000 for sixty-seven dram shop
licenses to be used in Chicago.
Three brewing firms in Chicago
have atrly paid $1,000 to procure
licenses for city salo n keepers

lHDlAonlAL CORRESPONDENCE.
CHARLESTON, W. VA, Aug. %.
The Capital of West Virginia,
to day, enjoyed something new un-
der the sun, three Prohibition Con-
ventions IN one day.
At the Rink at 11.30 a. m, the
Kanawha County Prohibition Con.
vention was called to order by Mr..
Job E. Thayer, and Mr.. J. D.
Barnes, of Charleston, was made
Chairman, with D. G. Lovett, as
Secretary.
Mr.. Barnes stated the object of
the Convention, in a brief, happy
address, saying that while there
was yet not much of Prohibition
storm in the Valley, yet it was
raining like everything elsewhere,
and if we can't have a head rise,
we must at least get ready tor the
backwater.
Rev. T, G. johnson moved the
appointment of three on Commit
tee of Resolutions. Chair named
Rev. T. C. Johnson, J. e. Middle
ton, and B. K. Shepherd.
On motion of J. 4. Middleton,
Messrs. T. Swinburn, J. w. Orcutt
and c. F. Duling were appointed
Committee on Credentials and b.
sis of Representation.
While Committees were out,
Convention enjoyed experience
talks of Mr.. Thayer, Capt. Christie
and others.
The Committee on Resolutions
presented a ringing report, which
our readers shall have next week.
Report was adopted, with hearty
enthusiasm.
CAMPAIGN FREEMAN.
1t was here announced that Kan
awha county was already taking
500 Campaign FREEMANs, which
in addition to regular subscribers,
were being sent free to lists of
names in the various districts. To
continue these 500 copies, and for
other campaign expenses, 500 was
asked for. Beginning with S. SUBJ
scriptions, s65 was raised in a few
minutes.
Committee On Credentials report
ed in favor of recognizing as dele
gates, all Prohibition party men
present, who are citizens of the
county, and that the body proceed
as a mass Convention. Report
adopted.
COUNTY NOMINATIONS.
On motion, the nomination of
County Commissioner was referred
to the Executive Committee.
Proceeding to the nomination
for House of Delegates, the names
of Job. e. Thayer, J. D. Barnes, B.
K. Shepherd, J. B. Fleming, L. A..
Beckwith, W. G. Henson, and w.
H. Tailor, were put before the Con-
vention.
Barnes Shepherd, declining,
and there being question as to

named were identified with the
Prohibition party, other names
were withdrawn, and Thayer, Hen
son and Beckwith were declared
the nominees by reclamation.
On motion, all delegates present
were made delegates to the Con-
gressional and Senatorial Conven-
tions.

al Convention.
J. W. CLAYPooL, OF GREENBRIER,N NOM
MATED,

Rink, at Charleston, the Third
D istrict Congressional Prohibition
Convention was called to order by
Mr.. J. D. Barnes, of Charleston, and
after an earnest opening prayer by
Rev. T. G. Johnson, was organized
with Thomas Swinburn as Chair
man, and W. L. Moore, Secre-
tary.
Mr.. CARsKADoN's ADDRESS.
Hon. T. r. Carskadon, of Key
ser, was now introduced, and greet
ed with applause.
With the thermometer boiling
over, and the tin roof of the Rink
seemingly red hot, Mr.. Carskadon
proceeded to pour forth the hot
shot of Prohibition for a sweltering
hour, which was most scorching to
ali opposition of the Gauss.
The address was enthusiastical-
ly received, and was especially
stiffening to all weak backbones.
We have no room here to follow
the speakers unanswerable argu-
ments, showing the urgent neces-
sity of a distinctive, separate Pro-
hibition party to grapple with and
destroy the giant crime of the Lip
uor Traffic. His speech has given
new courage and enthusiasm to
the brave Prohibition forces of
Kanawha county.
On motion, all Prohibitionists Of
the district, present, who are iden-
tilted with the Prohibition party,
were admitted as delegates.
On motion, the Resolutions
adopted by the Kanawha County
Convention were adopted as the
Resolutions of this Convention.
Mr.. ]. W. cLAYPooL NOMINATED.
Mr.. T. NJ. Shelton, of Kanawha,
was put in nomination. Monroe
county delegates presented the
name of J. W. Claypool, of Green
brier.
Mr.. Shelton, declining, because
of age and feeble health, Mr.. Clay
pool was nominated by acclama-
ton.
CONGRESSIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMIT
TEE.
The following Congressional Ex-
ecutive Committee was appoint
ed
T. Swinburn, and D. G. Lovett,
of Kanawha, A Nc D, Browning, of
Monroe; B. F. Mann, of Green
brier, J. c. Woodson, of Summers,
and w. L. Ellison, of Fayette.
Convention adjourned.
SENATORIAL CONVENTION.
Upon the adjournment of the
Congressional Convention, the SEN
atorial Convention for the Ninth
District, was promptly called to or
der, and on motion, organized with
the same officers as of the Con-
gressional Convention, and on mo
ton, same resolutions were adopt
ed, and all Prohibitionists from the
district admitted to seats.
NOMINATION FOR STATE SENATE.
Mr.. 4. M. Shelton and Mr.. P. w.
Morgan were named, but Mr.. Shell.
ton declining, Mr.. Morgan was de-
clared the nominee, by acclama-
ton.
SENATORIAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,
J. D. Baines, J. Middleton, and
W. L. Moore were appointed as the
Senatorial Executive Commit
! tee.
In this brief report, we simply
throw together the chief facts of
these three Conventions. 1t is too
hot for philosophy, and the writer
is too much exhausted for COM
merits.
It was a good days work and
big results will appear as the
campaign progresses and the re-
turns come in.
