New York, Sept 6.-Today's stock mar
ket was variable and irregular at all
times. but was more or less under the
continuing influence OF the shrinking
surplus reserves of the banks and the
SITTER rates for money. General specuia-

movement of the market was confined
largely TO special stocks, the trading be
ing highly professional throughout. Inc
opening was higher. in sympathy with
London. Ii quickly became evident, now
ever, that no outside interest had been
enlisted here and the professional pears
attacked the list in weak spots A NUM-

strength became general IN the late dear

What Others Say.

The gentlemen nominated for the
respective State offices are good men.
The nominees for Governor and
Lieutenant Governor are well-known
Prohibitionists, aad have for many
years been the leaders of the Prohi-
bition forces in the State. They are
men of high character and clean re-
cord. whatever may be said of other
qualifications which they possess or
may not possess. Bro. Joel E Brun-
son, the nominee for Governor, is a
successful business man, and has
won the respect and confidence o.
the people wherever he has lived. He
is well-known throuy yhout the State,
and is particularly highly esteemed
by his Baptist brethren. We are
sure he will make a good impression
upon the masses of our people when
he appears before them in the cam
paigu meetings. The Convention
nominated DR.. W H Zimmerman for
Treasurer, and a better man could
not be found for that position. which
he has 50 ably filled for two years.
No doubt DR.. Zimmerman will be
elected, whether he accepts this par
ticular nomination or not. The
present Secretary of State, Hon. d Il
Tompkins, was nominated for the
office he has so ably and aeceptably
filled for several terms. The Con-
vention did wei! to recognize the
faithful services of these gentlemen
and the people of the State no doubt
will gladly continue them in office.
Another Baptist brother, Col. Thos.
N Berry. was dominated on the Pro-
hibition ticket for the position of
Railroad Commissioner. We have
known Bro. Berry for a numder of
years and he is a good man in every
respect, and if elected will fill the
position with distinguished ability.
The other nominees of the con.
veution We do not know personally,
but they are well known as men of
character and ability, and they will
add strength to the ticket.-Baptist
Courier.

Gen. Wheeler's idea that the soath

Gen. Wheeler's idea that the sonth-
ern states should furnish the iuvad-
ing army for Cuba has met with pop
ular favor. because it is understood
that the general meals to imply that
residence in the south iusures
the citizens against the dangers of
yellow fever. The only people in
the south who might be considered
proof against yellow fever are the
negroes. If We are going to send
an army to Cuba at time when we
will have to fight the yellow fever
in addition to fighting the Spaniards
it ought to be made up Of negroes.
The white man who would enter
Cuba during the prevalence of yellow
fever would have about ten chances
to die of yellow fever, where he
would have one chance to be shot by
the Spaniards. Naturally the man
who goes out for military glory
would not want to end his career on
a hospital register, and meet death
at the hands Of an invisible enemy.

Tne DELAYED Call.

Editor: County Record.
We would be pleased if our hon
orabIe county chairman would eX-
PLATA why he did not issure his call
earlier enough to give the president
of each Democratic club time to Is
sue his call. And let it be generally
known. AS it was the most of US
had no time to do neither. Our Pro-
hibition brethren was posled in this
section and took advantage of it.
They captured the Democratic club
and acted in keeping with their
platform by debating a member
of the executpve committee ant a
delegation to the counts convention,
Of course, we being in the minority
by reason of the notice not being is
suck in time, hap to submit. Our
club is two hundred and ten or fif-
teen strong, and at least two-thirds
of them favor the dispensary as the
best and most wise solution of the
weiskey question, and it Capt Ken
nedy had issued his call on time we
would have sent a delegation who
would have represented the senti-
ments of the majorits of the people
of this section. / do not accuse

PROHIBITION FACTS.
ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW IN
MAINE.
Very Strong Testimony to this Effect
Cited by Hon. L. D.

Cited by Hon. l. u.
ChIlds.
Hon. L. D. Childs, in a letter to
the Columbia Register some time
ago, in speaking of Prohibition in
the State of Maine, said:
No intelligent advocate of pro-
hib:tion would contend that it ever
did or ever can annihjlate the
traffic and the results flowing from
il. for as long as there are men
bent on The indulgence Of their
appetites, there will be found
men who will assume the risk OF
violating any law which prohibits
indulgences. All that should be
5 reasonably claimed for such laws
is that they diminish crime and
wrong, improve the morals and
promote the prosperity
and !, happiness of the
people to a degree which
proves that they are desirable as
y part of the system of laws OF
every community which seeks to
make progress in civilization.
That prohibition really effects
thisresult is beyond question, it
the, testimony of those who are in
The best position TO know is to be
received, and it is to some point
ed testimony of this character
Tia / wish to refer you and your
readers. The diffic ulty l exper-
ience is in condensing from the
vast volume Of testimony on this
snbject without transcending the
limits Of an article like this.
Tia United States internal rev.
erue reports for Maine from 1853
1878, shows that there was de-
crease from $5l4.636.29 to $50,
SS9, 45 revenue on liquors and TO-
hacco. Since that time the rev.
eisne district ofMaine has been con
solidated with New Hampshire
and separate statements OF rev.
enue for Maine have been dropped
from the reports.
BY reference to tine same official
statement, it will be seen that the
total receipts Of internal revenue
from the whole United States for
the same period have increased
from s41,O03.63 to $11S.s37,o6
This shows that the falling off in
Maine was due to prohibition; and
that the enormous increase in al
ether parts of the country was
because there was no general pro-
J hioitiou operating to effect such
decrease.
