The Republicans had held a con-
vention the day previous, and
adopted the following resolutions /:
Whereas, very large percent
age of the Republicans of the
county are in favor of the submits
sion to vote of the people, of the
amendment prohibiting the man
ufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquors for other than medicinal,
mechanical, scientific and sacra-

Resolved, That we favor the sub
mission to the people of said
amendment, and instruct our Rep
resentatives this day nominated, if
elected, to vote and use their in
fuence for said measure"
There was no opposition,
Good news recently came also
from Butler county of this state,
that the court had refused to grant
any license in the county. The
Republican Convention of that
county also voted in favor of hav-
ing the question of license submit

Ed. FREEMAN:

Ed. FREEMAN
The people of Washington, Pa,
have been eagerly waiting the de-
cision of Judge Hart of this place,
On an application by citizen for
license to sell liquor. This citizen,
Julius B. Clark, got up a petition
signed, it is said, by more than 700
voters of the town and vicinity.
Learning this the friends of Prohi-
bition demonstrated to the number
of about 1000. No licensed liquor
house has been in the place
for about 20 years, and Washing
ton has been comparatively free
from drunkenness, during that
period. 1t was generally believed
that the petition would not be
granted. What was the surprise,
when on yesterday morning Judge
Hart, a man of high standing in
morals and intelligence, gave his
opinion in the case, and granted
license tc Mr.. Clark to sell by the
quart all kinds of intoxicating IL
quor! The Judge is Democrat,
and while it would be i'm proper to
impugn his motives, it is certain
that he would not stand fair with
his party were ne to take an oppo-

parties are alike the allies of the
whisky interest, as party organi-
cations. They cannot, they dare
not reject or turn a deaf ear to the
demands and dictation of the LIQUOR
combination, with its money and
its influence for or against party.
A glance at the position of both
parties in their relation to the
whisky traffic, local, State and
National, to a man of only moderate
intelligence or discernment, de-
clares the absolute absurdity of the
idea, that either of the old parties
can SO adjust itself by plat
form or otherwise as to meet the
demands and accept the issue made
by the Prohibition party. We
not only favor a Prohibition nomi-
nation for Congress from the Third
District, but in all the other dis
tricts in West Virginia. So, too,
let there be nominations from
every senatorial district. Likewise
let the Prohibitionists in the coun-
ties and delegate districts through
out the State, meet the issue fairly
and squarely with candidates in
the field. This will be productive
of grand results.
The Prohibition child of to-day
will soon attain its majority in
splendid manhood-and before it
subtle Democracy and pharisaical
Republicanism must bend the sup
plant knee in the not very distant
future, and do it homage, however
grudgingly. Such is an inevitable
certainty.
The counties should be organ
lied, our forces materializ ed, our
work chrystalized for success.
The time rolls on let the
FREEMAN sound the tocsin, "To
arms to arms! ye bravel"
This is an important year in the
politics of West Virginia. In view
of the election of a United States
Senator being a question at the
next session, we want, we must
and will have delegates from the
Prohibition party in the Leg;s-
lature. And if Mr.. Camden, Mr..
Wilson, II. G. Davis, Mr.. Golf or
any other aspirant for Senatorial
honors, stands committed against
Prohibition, by virtue OF their
fealty to the Democratic or Republi-
can parties-then, let no Prohibi-
ton vote be cast for such. There
are good and true men within the
pale of the new party for whom
such votes can be cast. The Hon.
T. R. Carskadon would be man
eminentiy fitted for the United
States Senate or Governor of our
State. He has the brain and
ability, highly commendatory, for
either place. 1t is well that it
should be now understood that the
Prohibitionists of the county OF
Kanawha will not in the future
vote for a whisky Democrat or
Republican for any position. The
candidates to get those votes must
be the 1,eao party men.
So, Mr.. FREEMAN-put the ball
in motion, our enemies are organi-
zing and there is no time to loose !;
hence, let US Forward March to the
tune of Orally round the flag,
boys" throughout the entire State.
Let the watchword be, Organize,
ORGANIZE and prepare for the strife.
If as men we are true to our cause,
our principles and to ourselves, we
must ultimately win; success is
inevitable if we avoid "entangling
alliances" with the old parties.
J. E. MIDDLETON.
The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1886-06-30

The following from the Washing
ton Sentinel, the leading Liquor
Organ of the country, is good, whole
some reading for all lovers of
Home and Country:
"The Prohibition papers are
multiplying rapidly. Almost ev-
cry week one or two are asking to
exchange. On the other hand
there seems to be the same old
apathy among the friends of per-
sonal liberty, especially the bust
mess portion of them, in support
ing those few papers which are
stemming in their interest the
prohibition avalanche. Some
weeks ago we wrote to some mil
lionaires to assist this paper with
their business card advertisements.
That would have been in compar-
ison about the same for them as
for US to give penny to a street
boy. No answer has been re-
ceived.
There is no pleasure in fighting
for men who take SO little interest
in their own defense. They are
intelligent enough to see that
without the friendly press they
would be completely at the mercy
of the prohibitionists. The latter
would have carried every measure
through Congress, had they not
been opposed by this paper and its
editor. Nobody else met their
spokesmen before the COMPRESSION
al committees in defence of the
cause of personal liberty.
The District of Columbia would
years ago have been put under the
yoke of severe restrictive legisla-
ton, had the Washington Sent
incl not interfered. Unable to
obtain better legislation, it has at
least succeeded in preventing the
passage of worse. There is no
man in this District who will de-
ny that to be true. But how do
the so-called business friends of
personal liberty show their appre-
citation and gratitude?
There are but few who have suf-
ficient courage and ability to meet
the cohorts of prohibition. Take
them away through non-support
or neglect and the country will be
wholly enslaved within few
years. One stronghold after an
other falls. New Orleans, 80 long
the sunny oasis in this desert Of
intolerance and bigotry, has also
succumbed. The dark myrmidons
of despotism and intolerance, from
the pulpit and rostrum, are thun-
dering against liberty with untir-
ing energy and zeal. There is no
lack of sympathy and support of
their fighting men and papers
visible in their ranks. No intrigues,
no stabbing in the back, no
ungrateful treatment arrests their
onward march. No wonder that,
though fighting for a bad cause,
they are successful in many in
stances.
