A Vital Question.
EDITOR EVENING STAR:

EDITOR EVENING STAR:
I was much pleased with the
sentiment expressed in your salu
tatory, which read: 1--WE shall have
fixed opinions upon all moral, DO.
litical and financial questions and
dare to express them fully and
freely when necessary"
The public press yields a great
influence upon the Community in
which it circulates, either for good
or for evil 1t is the auditory
nerve, SO to speak, of the people
and consequently yields more or
less influence, according to its
ability. desire therefore through
the columns of your paper to say
a few words, by way of eliciting
some information upon a subject
of vital Importance to all
1t is this: Some time about the
beginning of the year, two large
christian denominations in their
sessions (the Methodist in their
annual conference at Jacksonville,
and the Baptists in convention at
Leesburg) addressed the following
resolutions to the legislature of the
state OF Florida:
"We, the undersigned voters of
the state of Florida, respectfully
petition that at the approaching
session of your honorable body
you will enact such suitable legis-
lation as may be necessary in or
der TO submit to the voters of the
said state at the general election
in 1896, for their ratification or re-
lection, an amendment to the con-
Stitution of Florida prohibiting
within the limits of said state the
further sale or manufacture of al
coholic liquors of every descrip-
ton, excepting only such as are abb
solutely necessary for medicinal or
mechanical purposes, and provid-
ing such restrictions and safe
guards as will limit the sale to the
two purposes mentioned.
These resolutions with the petit
lion to the Legislature were
sent to every charge in the state
and were largely signed by the
voters of the state. In our own
,ity the petition was signed by
many If our most influential citi-
ems. The petition as signed was
to the pastor of the 5
;hurch at Tallahassee and by him 5
landed to the Legislature in ses- $
ion. Now sir, we as citizens and a
'Oters of the state wish to know :

school ma'ams think they deserve more
wages than they have been getting.
