The Prohibition Question Presented

The Prohibition Question Presented.
Henry W, Wilbur, editor of the New
York Voice, and Prohibition Candidate
for Governor of this State last fall, ad-
dressed . meeting in the Opera House
Iast night, an attentive audience being
present. Mr.. Wilbur is an able advocate
of the Prohibition cause, and he presented
the issue as really the paramount one In
this campaign, for the reason that the row
hatweeu the Republican and Democrats
over the currency question is quarrel
about methods after all, and he read the
marty platforms to prove his position, one
Declaring for free silver coinage and the
other for free coinage when 1t can be
accom- plished by International agreement.
A nd he said if value could be legistated
tito money by international agreement 1t
oonld be done also by national agreement.
A to the cry for free silver, he said
that under free coinage from 1870 to 1878,
onIv about $S 600, 600 were coined while
aimee 1878, $500, 000,0 900 has been coined.
40 that it is not money SO much that Is
nssdad but manhood. And it is man
hood that the liquor traffic destroys, we
ars wasting. through this awful evil, and
waste since the world began, produces
want.
Tnare ia no overproduotion be said, and
he laid n down as an axiom that to In
crease mans power to produce aud you
increase b is power to consume as well
During the last ten years me COUNTY, you Wy
has drank mn more money than all the
silver coined from the discovery OF
America by Columbus till the present
time.
Now, why are not all the people with
the Prohibition partys Because they say
you can't settle the Fronioition quession
and we must settle the currency question
But be did not think either party would
havesuficent power in Congress to pass
q radical coinage law.
To all dissatiafied Democrats ne saio
the Prohibition party offers good arr
that is seaworthy and will shed water II
all weather. In fact the latch string IL
| out to all.
Rev. G. G. Senser presided, and mad

The quarterly meeting Of the Salem
County Board of Agriculture was held il
Red Mems Hall, Pedricktown, OF
Wednesday afternoon, being called tt
order at 1,30 by the President, Rchmar

Some routine business was transacted
and then the amendment to the constitu.

amended and adopted, as follows:
The officers of this Association shall be
a President, Vice. President, Secretary

Rev E. G. Hulse. pastor of the M. E
Church, then gave an address of welcome,
followed by singing by the church choir,
after which Byron d. Halsted, of the
New Jersey Experiment Station at New
Brunswick, made an address on the
"Diseases of White and Sweet Potatoes. "
He first Spoke of the soil rot of sweet
potatoes, which, he said, is not soft rot,
and the germs may be retained in the sol
a long time. They are also liable to be
carried by the wind, as virgin soil has
been known to have the soil rot. Manure
aud Kainit is good for sweet potatoes
though not equal to corrosive sublimate,
which will give the largest yield Of all
the fertilizers. Sulphur is a good second
As,to the soil rot be approved the first pre-
vention possible, and he recommended
sulphur. Lime, he said, is of no value
and the potatoes keep better when sulphur
| is used.
Mr.. Strengthen said he could cure the
| black rot with sulphur.
The soab of the white potato was Their
discussed. Manure, he said, is one of thu
best agents for extending the scab, and
lime does not prove of any benefit, bu
rather encourages it. Corrosive subli
mate was recommended, as with swee
potatoes, applied in quantities of 300
pounds to the acre.
Mr.. Strengthen asked about the stem
rot, Prof. Halsted exhibited specimen
of asparagus rust and recommended
burning the tops of the plants to prevent
the disease from spreading.
Mr.. Strengthen moved vote of thanks
to Prof. lHalsted for his excellen
address, also to Rev. E. G. Hulse for his
kindly welcome, which were unanimously
adopted. Then followed a discussion or
the "Advisability of the organization Of
the watermelon and sweet potato
grow ers," which was opened by B. F
Strengthen, who said that they had thei
local buyers, which he thought was the
best.
Empson Atkinson thought that they
should organize and seek more distant
| markets.
Howard G. Cooper, of Pedricktown
was elected delegate to the State Board
of Agriculture for two years.
The choir again sang, when a rising
vote of thanks was rendered them, AMI
and the meeting adjourned.
