face; every onion feels stronger;
every grain field is shocked; ev-

and every foot of land kicks.-Du-

franchise laws-thus assuring an
electorate of the people which
should be the very cream of
the States citizenship. Nomina-
tions by the Democratic party pri
maries will be tantamount to an cleo
toin at the regular election to follow.
If, therefore, Prohibitionists, ninety
nine one-hundredths of whom are
Democrats, will come together, organ
ize and resolve to make this question
an issue in the primary for nomi
mating a Governor and Legislators,
victory will be assured. And, if
due care is exercised in nomina-
ting minor executive officers through
out the State, no fear need be entertain
ed that carefully drawn StateProhibi-
ton law will be- enforced. Officers
thus nominated and elected, backed by
Mississippi's able and incorruptible
Judiciary, would reduce the "blind
tiger" nuisance always exaggerated by
those wishing to'bring Prohibition into

mum.
Mississippi occupies proud and
unique position among her sister
States. Among the first to recognize
the property rights of her women; first
to establish an Agricultural e Mechan-
ical college for her boys and an Indus
trial college for her girls; first among
her Southern sisters to abolish the
cruel and bloody convict leasing sys-
tenn and to substitute therefor convict
farms under State control; the pioneer
and exemplar of all her Southern sis
terhood in solving the race problem
in politics by constitutional enactment
and elevating the standard of the cleo
tive franchise; first of all to give to her
legal voters direct individual voice
in the nomination of all elective Off
cers,-now let her add to her proud
fame by becoming the first of the
Southern sisterhood to throw off the
degrading yoke of the liquor traffic and
place the dram shop under the same
legal ban to which she long ago con-
signed its lesser associates in evil, the
gambling den and the brothel.
All friends of Prohibition who are
willing to unite with US in such a
movement are earnestly and cordially
invited to meet in jackson on the
date above named 1t is desired that
every county in Mississippi be rep
