PROHIBITION MEETING.
Charge OF Persecution Against Pres iding
Elder Of iiOncsdaie District,

The sensation of the conference oc-
Cured at the prohibition rally at the
Baptist church tonight. when the
chairman, Rev. J. A. Hogan, OF Forest
City. made an attack upon the presid-
Ing elder of the Honesdale district.
Mrs. Easterbrook and Mrs. Howells.
of Scranton. representatives of the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance union. un-
der whose auspices the rally was held,
made interesting addresses, after which
Emmett ID. Nichols, of Wilkes Barre,
spoke Rev. c. A. Benjamin made "A
vigorous prohibition speech. which was
welll received by the large audience.
The chairman took off his gloves and
related several cases of persecution of
prohibitionist preachers, and quoted
the Pennsylvania Methodist as saying
that a letter from a rich layman. with
political influence, went further toward
fixing q given conference appointment
than reason, revelation, or record OF
work done. The reverend gentleman
then made some references to his own
personal experiences, and said that
during his three years pastorate at
Forest City the membership of the
church had been nearly twice dou-
bled'' and Il new parsonage-probably
the finest in Honesdale district-had
been erected. in addition to the many
hundreds of dollars which had been
raised for church improvements. and
notwithstanding this, he said, with
calm deliberation, that the ministerial
clown who dsgraced the Honesdale
district as its presiding elder had
called him into his presence both before
and since the conference assembled and
informed him that in view of his (the
speakers) connection with the Penn
sylvania Methodist and because Of his
efforts in the cause of prohibition the
presiding elder had informed him that
''he could not send him to any decent
place"
The presiding elder had acted toward
him as a moral assassin and his sole
reason for making the statements We're
to seek Justice and safety by letting the
light of day in upon the work of slander
and misrepresentation. The presiding
elder had added insult to injury, but he
was only one of many engaged in the
work.
They must have information or revo-
luton in the church. One fight was on
and he had enlisted to stay until the
close Of the battle. If prohibition
would divide the church, 1t would only
split off the DEVILS end.
Rev. T. f. Jepson also delivered
splendid address.

WEpGEr1ELD, Feb. 18th, 1895.
The largest oat crop ever knowu perhaps,
was planted this season, and our farmers were
yery ioyous over them till the recent cold,
which it is feared has killed entirely all those
except that which was planted very early,
ana ,hey are very much injured. This is a
heavy blow TO the community, and Ole tnas
makes us feel very blue, still We are cot 80
bad of, exceps for old debts, Tor almost all
have enough corn to run chem, nave Kilieo
more meat than usual. and have hne pros
pect for meat aud lard another season.
A number of our farmers are ANXIOUS TO
nlant some tobacco. The amount each one
will plant will range from one to ten acres
serious drawback to tobacco is the barns
which require ready cash, and which the ones
who would plant the tobacco, principally the
small farmers, cannot get.
Times seem equally hard With all classes.
Merchants are getting all the corn, aud more
than they waot, at 40 cerss in trade. Negroes
are forced to sell at any price to get some
thing to exist on
Labor is sabundent at e lower price than
was ever known.
The severe winter has caused much more

been from cotton clothing and little fat
