Prohibition i'm Charleston
A Grand Success.
DEAR FREEMAN (:

DEAR FREEMAN:
We have now had three months
of Prohibition in the Capital City,
and 1 thought it might not be
amiss to give somewhat in detail,
my own impressions as to it's sue
cess. wish to speak first of what
[ have observed personally.
l. AS to the thirty saloons which
were open last year, up to the first
of May, [ notice that eight are
now occupied in other and profta-
BILE lines of business. Eight others
seem to be permanently closed. The
remaining fourteen are still open
as restaurants and saloons where
only Temperance drinks are adver-
tised for sale. None of them are
openly violating the law.
2. Whatever these Temperance sa-
looms are selling, my observation is
that their open patronage is moth
ing like what it was before. Sa-
loon loafers and frequenters have
either ceased to exist or have re-
tired to more private quarters.
3. [ have seen but four or five
drunken men in the whole three
months. Before that, hardly day
passed that [ did not observe one or
more persons under the influence
of liquor.
4. | know number of persons
who used to be more or less under
the influence of liquor all the time,
who have been leading sober lives
under Prohibition.
5. A great many red faces and
noses have very perceptibly bleach
ed out since their legal supply of
strong drink was cut off.
6. [ am now seldom troubled
with the offensive smell of liquor.
Under license, it was strong in
front of almost every saloon l pass
ed, and on the breath of many
met on the streets.
7. [ observe that business, in
building, trade, &C., goes right
along even more lively than be-
fore, and do not see so much idle
ness as there used to be.
8. | notice a great difference in
the general peace and quiet of the
city. There is a marked absence
of that boisterous conduct, vulgar
profanity, and drunken. revealing
that used to be source of frequent
annoyance, as we'll as danger, by
day and by night.

ers. The first thing that met ones
eye, on entering the church, was
large Temperance chart, just back
of the pulpit.
After singing "Rescue the Per-
ishing," and prayer by Rev. Cline,
the battle was opened by Rev.
Luttrell, and broadside after broad
side of Prohibition shot was pour
ed into the whiskyites.
We suspect some Christians
heard some plain facts which were
new to them. Some seemed slight
ly offended, judging by the haste
in which they left the church.
Rev. Luttrell is a sound Prohi-
bitionist, and speaks without fear
or favor; and the same may be said
OF the pastor, Rev. j. Cline.
Whisky is boss in Lima. The
fourteen churches seem powerless.
1t is to be hoped that the startling
facts brought forward Sabbath
evening will arouse them to some
extent from their apathy. 1t is
here as in your own city-the sa.
loon dictates and the Council
obeys. But the good people are
preparing rebuke for such brazen
impudence. VISITOR.

THEY CANNOT DO HI.
OHIO'S GRAND CONVENTION.
Letter from Mr.. John Dammer, Can
ton, Ohio.

ED. FREEMAN:
Many thousands of honest, we'll
meaning Democrats and Republi-
cans, throughout the country, who
desire to see the liquor traffic abol-
ished, have been indu]ging the
hope that by some means their
chosen party would take up this
great national issue. All such hope
is delusion; history is all against
such an expectation. Never, in
the history of political parties in
this country, has a new national is
sue been brought forth by the
wants of the people, which has
been taken up by an old party, if
the former annunciations of said
party were in conflict with said is
sue. New parties had to be formed
to carry forward the issues that
conficted with old parties. Thus
it is in regard to the Democratic
and Republican parties to-day, con-
corning the question of Prohibition.
For years the Democratic national
platform has pronounced against
"sumptuary laws" which they
interpret as against Prohibition.
The Republican party, in its ma
tional capacity, has enacted and
upheld the greatest system of eli
censing liquor selling" ever under
taken by any party, and they are
committed to such a system. Both
parties have used and courted the
saloons for votes, and their very ex-
istence now depends upon retain
ing their support, Such being the
history of both these great parties,
in their national organization,
there can be no kind Of hope Of
their ever coming out in favor of
prohibition. New issues may be
taken up by old parties, where
there is nothing in said issues that
conflicts with their former history
as parties; but never where there
is a conflict or change, as there
would be if the Democratic or Re-
publican party were to pronounce
for Prohibition. Therefore, we
take the position that this great
question cannot be disposed of by
either of the old parties. In GER
tain localities the Democrats may
be favorable to Prohibition. So it
is with the Republicans, but as
national parties both are commit
ted against it. So it was on the
free-soil question. In certain local
tiles, the Democrats were favorable
to free-soil, and in others the Wings
were favorable, but as National or
CARNATIONS, both were pro-slavery,
and new party had to be formed
to carry forward the issue, which
took its supporters from both the
old parties. The Democrats, then,
as now, were in power, and the
Wings could not put them out
but the third, or new Republican
party did. I fully believe
that the national reins of
power will not be taken from the
Democrats now until it is done by
the third or National Prohibition
Party. The new Republican par

drunkenness now and then, IN diff
ferent parts of town. But it is moth
ing, as compared with what it was
before, as the police records clearly
show. 1t is evident that those
who obtain liquor, drink much
less, as a rule, than they did before,
and that those who drink to drunk
enness, are kept more from the
public view.
The great question is, can we de-
pend on our officials to do their du-
ty? Thus far, a number of them
are worthy of special commenda-
ton, and are honestly disposed to
enforce the law. But they will
not think hard of me for saying
that some of them have moral
weaknesses, that will tend to en-
barrass them in vigorous prosecu-
tlons, and prevent that public con-
hdence 80 essential to the main
tenance of good laws. Our Coun-
ty Court seems anxious that the
law should be enforced, and is
taking steps to use whatever au-
thority it may have, to that end.
The prospect is that while our
present officers continue, there
will be tolerably satisfactory en-
forcement of the law. It is hard
to tell, just yet, what effect
the coming political cam
paign will have on the workings of
our Prohibition, Some think that
partisan Prohibition will be bad

down again to q permanent business basis.
Prices are generally becoming f1rmer and
more steady. The drug trade continues active
and larger sales are noted in this line than
ever before ut this season. Staple goods are
not high and some think they may advance.
large number of changes are made in quo
tations, too numerous to be mentioned here.
They can DO found in the quotations to be
seen below. The trade in this line this sea-
son will be the largest in amount and the
widest in extent ever done in st. Paul. Our
wholesale market is now so complete that it
commands business as never before from all
the Northwest. The dry goods trade shows q
steady and gradual Improvement. Each
day brings its own increasing trade.
The purchases as Il rule are liberal and in
clude all kinds of goods. The order demand
shows an Improvement, both in number and
size The market continues firm at I'M
changed prices. Manufacturers seem to be
slow to deliver and fewer goods are to be
had 1t looks now as though some makes
would be higher in the fall. 1t now being
toward the end of the season jobbers are be-
ginning to check up stock preparatory to
taking account of stock on the 1st of July.
Trade is keeping well up, and the demand for
lawns, prints, ginghamS, etc., is in excess of
last season. Much of the business that is
now being done is through orders, the num-
Der of personal buyers in the market being
quite limited. The hardware business is ac-
tive and collections satisfactory. There is
no special change to note in barbed wire, the
market continuing quiet and firm. Nails are
dull, weak and lower. Still buyers are not
taking hold at the lower figures quoted and
seem to be confident of securing further con-
ceSSionS. There is now, and has been all
along, a better demand for barbed wire in the
West than in the East. Groceries are steady
and in good demand, with no special feature
to note.

THE MORGAN HEIR.
lad Effect OF His Good Luck OH New

Sad Effect OF His Good Luck OH New
come, the New York Plumber.
New York Letter to the Chicago Times.
The most astonishing instance of the IN
accountable effect of prosperity L have ever
seen is that Of NewcOme, the heir to the
great Morgan estate. For many years he
was a hard working, robust and vigorous
plumber, a sturdy, bowlegged and wiry
little man, who kept the mouths of large
family of vOraciouS children filled by ham
mering away ten or twelve hours day. OF
late years he has worked very hard to pro-
vide for the increase in his family and the
heavy competition he has met in his trade.
He woke up one morning somewhat
worried about grocers bill of 81. Sc, and
discovered that he had just come in pos
session of $1,000, 900.
The effect of the fortune upon the in
dustrious little plumber has been disastrous
in the extreme. He has settled into con-
dition of pallid melancholy which nothing
can lift. His ruddy color is gone, and he
is as white as spoOk. More than this, his
face has taken on panied and harrassed
look, and he exhibits nervous haste in his
movements which is almost pitiful. Along
with the vast fortune he inherited all of
Mrs. Morgan'S family coaches, and being a
conscientious man, he drives resolutely in
them every afternoon, the picture of over
awed and plaintive discomfort. He still
hangs about the galleries where the mag
niicent art treasures of Mrs. Morgan were
exhibited, with his hands thrust deep in his
trowsers' pockets, his head hung forward
and his eyes looking uneasily about. Once
in a while he exchanges a few words with
the porter of the place, but as a rule he
seems to be i'll at ease. His good fortune
has completely unnerved him.

Shaky indeed, with indications from the East

good supply Of samples, but only such were

consequence is that many were carried away.
Corn was in light demand, but was steady and

Produce Exchange.

Business on this board was fairly active
this morning and considerable trading was
INDUCED in. Butter continues to grow
weaker as the new-made stock comes in e..
That that is now received is of excellent,
fresh stock. Extra choice, fresh creamery is
down to20c, and with the supply now being
