Report of Committee on Resolutions.

Report of Committee on Resolutions.
Grateful to God for the measure of success
already attained, and devoutly seeking his
aid in all our future efforts, the Prohibition
Party of the State of Maryland, through its
representatives in Convention assembled,
sets forth the following declaration of
principles.
First. We affirm that an essentially wrong
principle remains eternally wrong whether
the business it permits be protected by law
or not that the license system, either low or
high, as applied to the traffic in intoxica-
ting liquors to be used as a bev erage is
utterly wrong and vicious in principle, and
crime against God and man; that low
license after a full and fair trial under the
most favorable conditions, has proved IT.
self to be ineffective, inexpedient and in
defenslble; that high license, while creating
q monopoly in iniquity, does not perma-
nently or appreeiably lessen the traffic or
lessen its evils. 1t is, therefore, delusion
and snare, and an attempt to bride the
conscience by money extorted from an inn
moral and corrupting business.
Second. Experience with local Prohibi-
ton has shown that State Prohibition is the
grandest and most effective form of local
Prohibition; and it has also been demons
trated that Prohibitory enactments, to be
completely effective, must be national and
directed against the manufacture and
importation as well as the sale of intoxica-
ting liquors as beverages; that those entrust-
ed with the enforcement of Prohibitory
laws must not only be in 81 mpathy with the
principle, but sustained by a party un-
conditionally committed to the doctrine of
Prohibition. To force Prohibitory enact
ments upon an unwilling party is to put
Prohibition in the hands of its enemies.
Third. Both of the old parties, having
publicly and notoriously courted the favor
of the liquor interests, men of all parties,
who seek Prohibition, must seek it else
where. A separate party, untrammelled by
fear and asking no favors Of the saloons, is
an imperative necessity.
Fourth. We gratefully recognize the signal

Report on State Organ.

Report on State Organ.
Your Committee on State Organ, beg leave
to submit the following report:
Your Committee present that the great
work We have in hand of organizing for the
overthrow of the iegalized Liquor Traffic, in
our own State, is Identical and now being
carried forward along the same lines, with
the like grand cause, in West Virginia:
That the two States are so closely identi-
Ned in interest and allied in sympathles, as
to make their struggle for freedom from the
curse of the saloon, their common cause:
That the organized protest of Americas
womanhood against the Saloon, and de-
mand for its Prohibition, the Woman IS
Christian Temperance Union of the two
States, have already been heartily cooper
ating and holding annual Inter-StateConfer-
ences att Mountain Lake Park, in our own
State and have adopted the West Virginia
FREEMAN, published at Parkersburg, West
Virginia, as their common medium of conn.,
munication:
That we find the WEST VIRGINIA FREE
MAN an established eightpage, forty-col-
umn weekly paper, adapted to our needs
and doing battle in the front lines of the
Prohibition conflict, and ready to offer to
Maryland the same facilities it gives to the
work in WestVirginia:
Therefore, Your Committee recommend
that the Prohibition Party OF Maryland
adopt the WEST VIRGINIA FREEMAN as its
State organ, and that this Convention urge
upon all Prohibitionists of the State the
importance of giving to it their hearty sym,
pathy, active aid and substantial support
in ~ ar rim tic NV all
parts of the State That committee OF
seven be appointed, with power to
enlarge by the appointment of active, ear.
nest workers. in different parts of the State
for the special work of pushing the circula.
ton of the FREEMAN and furnishing it with
the news and live Prohibition matter from
their respective localities.
Respectfully submitted
WIN. SILvERwooD, Chairman.
The report was thoroughly dis.
cussed, by Messrs. VIM. Sherwood,
John L. Thomas, Rev. j. D. C.
Hanna, Dave D. johnson of West
Virginia and others.
MISS SARAH HARRIS,
of Virginia, being observed in the
audience ana called on by Mr..
Daniel, responded in a brief ad-
dress, full OF good cheer and encour-
age2ent. She said the matter un-
der discussion was one that inter-
ested her very much, ard testified
to the good work the FREEMAN
was doing in Southampton County,
Va, where she had introduced it
into many homes. Miss Harris
was heartily applauded.
Some objection was made to the
term "organ," but after explana-
tion the report was adopted by a
hearty vote.
NAMES WANTED FOR CONVENTION
