THE PR0HIBIT0RY CAMPAIGN
A Formal opening at Bo.,en-x ma.

Formal 0pcnlng at Bostou-A Mas.
Meeting at fremont Temple,
BOSTON, Oct. 9.-The formal opening of the
prohibitory campaign took place in fremont
Temple with mass meeting under auspices
of the State committee, addressed by some
prominent members of the temperance party.
A large audience was in attendance and
upon the platform were Rev. DR.. Miner,
Rev. Joseph Cook, B. T. Sturtevant, Esq,
Professor Samuel Dickie of Michigan,
chairman of the national committee;
the Rev. ]. j. Lansing of Worcester,
James q. Roberts, DR.. John Blackmer, of
Springfield, the candidate for governor, and
many others. Chairman Melvin q. Walker,
the State committee, presided, and after
prayer by Rev. A. A. Williams, of Lynn, and
music. Prof. Dickie was introduced as the
speaker. There is little difference, he said,
between the Republican AID Democratic par
ties. The liquor traffic Yields q bludgeon
over both parties, though in . minority.
Right here in Boston rumseller counts for
more and weighs more than the average min
lister here.
Rev. J. J. Lansing, in an eloquent speech,
reviewed the arguments against the men who
desert the Republican for the Prohibition
party. He wanted to say to the party, with
all due respect, that, in his opinion, If they
would denounce the Republican party less and
use more persuasion.they would accomplish
more. By temperance Republicans coming
out of the Republican party It has thrown
the party right over the liquor side and the
party is now In the hands of it's managers,
who are for high license, and they only are
left to run it. High license Is an outrage,
both to morals and common sense. Henry
81. Faxon, Rev. j. w. Hamilton, Joseph
Cook and Rev. DR.. Miner in brief remarks
added their Endorsement of the speeches that
had been made.

Robinson 4 Co.
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Oct. 9.-The an
nouncement of the failure of William A.
Robinson & Go. has caused much surprise to
people In this city where they were known
to be carrying on profitable business in oil
refining, and well informed people say their
failure is caused by losses in the Baltic mill
in Connecticut and by recent failures In the
city of Providence. Their headquarters are
in Boston, with branch houses in this city
and New York. The New Bedford member
OF the firm, William A. Robinson, was seen
late this afternoon, but declined to state the
amount of liabilities, and said he was unable
to make an estimate of the percentage the
firm will be able to pay. It vas impossible
for him to say what the Connecticut mill
and the oil refinery will sell for. The cred
itors are not numerous, being eight in this
city, two in Providence and some in New
York and Chicago Some of the paper Of
the firm is held by the Mechanics National
