Speak out. Brethren.

Some people use one thing and
some another tor their apology for
voting against the Amendment,
but few, it any, give their reason
for it. The Republican party is
excueing itself, by saying, that
it opposes the Amendment, because
of the third party icing in the
field. If it will oppose what it ad-
mits to De right, for such trivial
reasons, how can the people have
any confidence in it? The con.
|'cluHion must be, that either the
Republican party don't believe in
Prohibition, or that the party is
easily diverted from what it oe-
lieves to be right Mound8u5lIe
Sun, Dem.
Well said now let the Repub-
lican brethren speak out, and ex-
plain the position of the Demo-
cratic party, on the Amendment.
The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1888-07-04

We much regret that our ex-
tended report Of the Convention
proceedings prevents the use OF our
copious notes, in this issue, Of Miss
Wizards magnificent address be-
fore the magnificent audience on
Thursday evening. The large
church was packed, aisles, vestibule
and gallery, and the applause of
the audience made supremacy RI
diculous the stupid comment of the
Journal, that mot more than half
dozen of the audience had any SYM
patty with Miss Wizards fanatical
and unwomanly notions on wo-
mans suffrage, women as pollti-
clans, &C."
At the close of her address, lib
eral collection was taken for w. G.
T. U. work in the Amendment
Campaign, Miss Willard subscrib-
ing 500 and pledging another 800
for the National w. C. T. U.
The eloquent logic of the address
captivated all, confirmed many, and
we are sure converted some among
our prominent citizens.
