A FEW QUESTIONS.

The Louisville Commercial of Febru-
ary IA, in its report of the State Prohi-
bition Convention, has this to say con
cerning our national superintendent of
non-alcohol;c medication:
Colonel Balm then mounted table
and was about to Speak, when a quiet
little lady arose in the center of the
hall, and in low, but distinct voice,
inquired if she might ask Professor
Roark question The chairman tried
to rule her out of order, but she per-
sisted so firmly yet politely, that Colon
el Balm gallantlyg yielded the floor, and
the chair was obliged to recognize Mrs.
James A. Leech, Of Louisville.' She
asked the Professor If he could tell her
whether the prohibitionl vote in the
South had increased 800 to 400 per cent.
during the last campaign. He replied
reluctantly, that it has. Mrs. Leech
wanted to ask question. Had the vote
in the North increased in any such
proportions? The Professor did not
know that it had. Here there was
prolonged applause, but Mrs. Leech
wanted to ask question. Had not the
facts proved that the women suffrage
plank had not lost any votes in the
South? The Professor got very much
ratified, and made some very ill-temper-
ed and irrelevant remarks, but the
mild little lady still had a question
which she wanted to ask. How many
votes would have been lost in the South
if the suffrage plank had been left out?
This was too much for the Professor,
and he got indignant, but the audience
was delighted, and Colonel Balm declar-
ed he would ratlef have Mrs. Leech
go on with her questions than to make
any speech himself He made a very
powerful speech, however, and after a
defense of the majority report by Lewis
Hancock, of Cairo, vote was taken
and the substitute was almost unani-
mously adopted, thus officially and
emphatically committing the Prohibi-
ton Party of Kentucky to female
suffrage"
