ROBERTS FOLLOWS ADVANTAGE.
His Whole Force Apparently Moving
winburg.


LONDON May 5.-Lord Roberts is evil
IDENTIFY losing no time in following up the
substantial advantage gained by the occu-
patton of BrandfOrt, and his whoe force is
apparently moving on Winburg. The place
mentioned in Lord Roberts dispatch to
the war office this morning as "Nealwel-
kot'' cannot be found on the maps, and it
is likely that it Is cable error for near
Vet Knop." in which case General Ian
Hamilton seems TO be midway between
Houtnek and Winburg. and has thus got
between Wiuburg and General Olivier's
command from Wepener. which is occupy
ing Thaba Patchoa.
Between Thabanchu Lady and VIM
burg the country is rough and suited for
the Boer tactics, the British are liable
to be considerably harassed before they
capture the stronghold. Experts differ as
to whether Lord Roberts Is bound toward
Kroonstadt or in the direction of Bethle-
hem. The latter place IS the terminus of
the line joining with the Natal railroad at
Van Reenans Pass, and the capture of that
place would probably compel the Beers 70
leave the Drakenburg range and thus open
the way for Gen. Buffers advance. The
British Will have TO repair the bridge over
the Vet before the railroad between Brand
fort and Winburg becomes available.
Report From Gen. Roberts,
LONDON. May 5.-Lord Roberts reports

Treatment of British Prisoners
The British government has made no rep
resentations Of late touching the condition
of the British prisoners in the hands of
the Beers. The State Department is in re-
ceipt of reports at regular intervals from
United States Consul Hay. at Pretoria in
which he never fails to describe the condi-
tiOns. From his reports it appears that
while the condition of the English pris-
oners IS not all that it might be- still the
Beers are probably treating them with as
exercise at present. Consul Hay has been
doing everything in his power to add to the
comfort of the prisoners. in accordance
with his instructions, and the British au-
thorlties have expressed their gratitude for
his Offices
His task has been a delicate one but It
appears that he has so far discharged It in
such manner as to avoid giving any offense
to the BOer officials. with whom. indeed he
has become established on an excellent
footing

Address of Prohibition Demo-
Gratis.

The following address was read
at the recent prohibition confer
ence but was omitted from the pro-
ceedings in Saturdays issue for
want ofspace: =
Mr.. Fulmer moved that "Col.
Hoyt's address be read to the CON

Col. Hoyt then presented the
following, saying that at the in
stance of the committee he had
prepared the matter:
"The prohlbitionists of South
Carolina, in appealing to the
Democratic voters to join them in
suppressing the liquor traffic in
this State deem it proper and
right that they should clearly and
unequivocally state their position
with reference to the business
conducted in the name of the com =
mon wealth, which thereby makes
all its citizens responsible in a
measure for the continuance of
this traffic, which we believe to be
a crime against humanity and
means of degradation to the peo.
pie.

chosen to make this contest at the

will be a population noted for it's
sObriety, which will be the rule
and not the exception among the
young men. Once firmly rooted
and grounded in the minds of the
people, prohibitory measure
will come TO be regarded as
necessity. More than n genera
tion has passed since this law was
enacted in Maine, and for long
time there was a vigorous fight
against its continuance, but az
this time both political parties
are pledged to its maintenance as
the settled policy of the State.
The cry of repeal has been frc-
qnentIy raised, and not many
years ago Que of the political par
tlesOmade repeal plank in its
platform, with the result that not
more than a half dozen members
were elected to the house of rep
resentatives, which has over one
hundred in its membership, and
the fight for repeal was an igno~
minious failure.
"Gen Neal Dow, who was tue
apostle of prohibition, n man of

quite within the mark to say that
not netwentieth as much liquor
is sold clandestinely IN that State
as was sold by the saloons before
this law was passed. Portland,
its chief city, whore Gen Dow
lived and died, had seven distil-
leries and two brewcries, while
many cargoes of rum were brought
every year from the West Indies,
and now liquor is sold there on
very small scale, the quantity not

was that there is saving of $24,-
