DEAR FREEMAN:-Our State Pro-
hibition Convention which assem-
bled in Springfield on the 18th and
18th was one of the most immense
and enthusiastic gatherings | have
ever attended. Almost 1000 regu-
iarly accredited delegates were in
attendance, and all but about one
half dozen of the more than 100
counties were represented. 1t was
a remarkably fine collection
of represen tative men and women
of the Sucker State. 1t fairly
boiled with enthusiasm and blazed
with hope. We expect to poll &c.
600 Prohibition votes in illinois in
Novem Der next. Thoughtful men
place this State among the dou bt-
full ones. The name of Clinton B.
Fisk set the Convention wild with
enthusiasm. Every county in the
State is now organized.
Yours for the war,
