9Th 1894


The Prohibition Party of Mississippi,
in Convention assembled, acknowledge
ing Almighty God as the source of all
| true government and His law as the
standard to which human enactments
must conform to secure the blessings
of peace and prosperity, present the
following declaration of principles:
1st, We declare our allegiance to the
National Prohibition party and re-af-
! firm our endorsement of the National
platform adopted at Cincinnati June
Both, 1892.
| 2nd, As the ballot is the bulwark of
the peoples liberties, we favor an in
telligent standard of suffrage and hon
esty and purity in all elections by the
people, and demand that all parties
shall be fairly represented on election
boards in this State.
Bird, We condemn, in unmeasured
terms, the spirit of mob violence which
prevails in this and other States, where
by many citizens have been put to a
cruel and speedy death without the
benefit of judge or jury or the oppor-
tunity to prove their innocence as
guaranteed to them by the Constitu-
ton of the United States.
4th, We demand the repeal of the
United States Internal Revenue law au-
thorizing the issuance of Government
permits for the sale of liquor in Prohi-
bition territory.
9Th, In view of the serious and
alarming industrial and financial con-
ditions of the country, we deem the
settlement of the currency question in
in accordance with the principles laid
down by the Prohibition party of ur-
gent concern, second only in impor-
lance to the suppression of the liquor
traffic itself. 1.-THE money of the coun-
try should consist ofgold, silver and pa
per, and be issued by the General Gov
eminent only, and in sufficient guam
tity to meet the demands of business
and give full opportunity for the en-
ployment of labor. To this end an in
crease in the volume of money is de-
manded. No individual or corpora
ton should be allowed to make any
profit through its issue. 1t should be
| made legal tender for the payment of
all debts, public and private. It's vol
ume should be fixed at a definite sum
our increasing population.
RESOLUTION.
Resolved, That we cannot too Sc
verely condemn the action of Missis-
sippi's Congressman in the House of
the 5lst Congress, every one of whom,
except Hon. Clarke Lewis of the 4th
District, opposed the passage of the
Wilson original package bill, whereby
| it was sought to prevent the nullifica-
ton of all the Prohibition laws in this
and other States.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1894-12-25

There is no joy like the joy of
ministering to others. Only a
Christly heart csn feel that joy
a heart moulded by the Spirit in
to the likeness and image of Him
who came not to be ministered
unto, but to minister.

in st. Michsel's and one on the Easton
Point road. These mills have a capacity
of nine barrels of -four an hour. They
run twenty-four hours six days in the

at home. and the farmers get more fol
their wheat at these mills than they dc
