Many negroes employed on Georgia
farms have begun to leave the country for
the town, and planters are said to be
alarmed ss the exodus, which in msny
instances amounts to stampede. An
Athens paper says that for many days
past the roads leading to the town have
been lined with vehicles BEARING the

Among our Exchanges.

The Preston JOURNAL, of last
week contained a very able article
on Prohibition, written by Prof
Frederick Tucker Dem.
We read the article carefully,
and found it more Of a petulant
childish TRADE against the "Third
Party" than a plea for Prohibition.
WARRINGTON seems to have a
building boom. 1t is reported that
five new dwelling houses will be
built in that town early this spring
and many more later on Fair.

Prof. Dickie at Keyser.
The Meeting a Grand Success.

On Wednesday evening last Prof.
Dickie Of Michigan, delivered
mastery speech to a good audience
at Keyser, delighting the FRIENDS
and confounding the enemies OF
the Prohibition cause. There was
no denunciation or abuse OF
parties or persons, but an able pre-
sentation of facts and arguments
showing the necessity OF party .,
prohibitionists to secure ettectu@
Prohibition.
Some notes and incidents OF tne
meeting must be deferred to neA'
issue.
Prof. Dickie was royalty enter
tanned at the hospitable mansion
on Radical Hill, where Mr. anu
Mrs. T. R. Carskadon always haVo
a hearty welcome for all Prohloi'
ton and W. G. T. U. workers. VI
this occasion there were qul1e
gathering of prominent ProniDt
tionists, met to confer with sfo.'
Dickie, among whom, Mr.. franz
Burt of Warrington, ourever CARL
est and jealous friend Mr.. Aaiur
Baker of Grant County, Rev. ""
E. Curley, T. S. Greenwads anu
others.
The conference was most pieas
ant and profitable, and not the iea''
enjoyable incident of the occaSioI
was when all joined in dlspoSins :"
the twenty pound turkey a. Wv
sumptuously spread table OF HsU ~.
ical Hill. It was q good Gay w.
the ''cranks" all around.
The freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1886-18??, 1888-02-08

We followed that aeaos stena,in an
other column till it became so ter
ribly distorted that something aw-
full might come of it. Don't be sur
prised to see it turn up yet in start
ling shape like this: "That crank
Dave Johnson has gobbled up a
million dollars of the Prohibition
Committees Doodle, fled to the
North Pole and invested it in the
whale culture"

A Sad Reverse.

But little while ago we rejoiced
in the glad news from Peasants
county that the Shawnee Debating
Society had discussed the Amend
ment, decided that it should be
adopted and so settled the question.
But now, alas, we have news of a
sad reverse. A correspondent of
the Oracle says:
"By means of the Shawnee and
Oak Grove Societies the Prohibi-
ton Amendment has been doomed
to defeat already, as the question,
Resolved, That the Prohibition
Amendment should be adopted in
the State of West Virginia, was de-
feated at both Places
However, let the "Prohib" boys
sup and at EN-" again. Let these
debates and discussions on the
Amendment be held in every
school house in the State, and it's
success will be abundantly assured.

Rev. A. B. Rohrbough accepts
the temporary chairmanship of the

his best energies to spur it into
general activity, His letter Of &C.

Judge Ferguson strangely charges
on the advanced line of the Home
allies, but by his logic exposes the
enemy's stro ngest position to sur
prise and capture. So long as the
Liquor power can hold two leading
parties in a nearly equal contest
with each other, the saloon is safe
and secure.

THE LOGIC OF LOGIC.
Two features of Judge Fergu.
sons Letter.

There are two features in Judge
Ferguson's last letter in reply to
Mr.. Carskadon, that should have
passing notice at least. The letter
will be found in this issue with all
it's pugilistic pugnacity. Of course
a large part Of the article will be Of
no special value except to such OF
our readers as may run short OF
facts and arguments in their po-
litical encounters and have need to
become expert in the art of person
al word-pugilism. AS specimen
OF political personal 'sass," the
Judges letter may challenge COM
petition, and it is to be hoped he
may be allowed to have that field
to himself.
But there is another feature Of
the article that is more remarkable !;
and that is where the Judge plants
himself on the Republican politi-
clans ground and admits facts and
analogies that utterly demolish all
the positions he has assumed and
tried to maintain throughout this
controversy.
It is the Inevitable logic of logic
to drive straight to conclusions
whether the trend be to the front or
rear, and woe to the !ogician that
admits too much and gives his
logic retroactive trend.
The Judge admits that the early
Abolition party caused the defeat
of one of the old parties and thus
precipitated the issue and the con-
tlict between the opposers of slave
ry on one side and it's defenders on
the other, which ended in the final
overthrow of the system. 1t mat.
tered not to the abolitionists which
was the better or worse party in
those days, as neither would take
up their issue. So it is now no
concern with the Prohibition party
which of the old parties gets hurt
in the new conflict, as neither of
them will take up the new issue.
In saying the Prohibition party is
pursuing the same course adopted
by the Free Soil party, the Judge
thus admits himself out of court and
prophesies well for the new party
which he 80 delights to denounce
and ridicule. Nor will his assum-
ed Democratic solicitude for the
fate Of the Republican party serve
as any satisfactory compensation to
his political enemies for his cruel
presentation of such facts and an.
alogies of history as point to the
speedy and inevitable defeat and
dissolution of the old parties, that
must come in the reorganization
of political Ii! es of battle for the
new conflict to settle the new issue
before the American people. But
as logic is logic, to this it must
