THE PROHIBITION PARTY.

The Republican party grew
from small beginnings, and, there
fore, the Prohibition party in its
initiative is entitled to respect.
The Republican party was against
the slavery of the cOlOred man.
The Prohibition party is fighting
the agencie- that enslave both
white and colored. Of course,
the party does not expect to win
at the polls, but they propose to
make their influence felt. The
nomination of Rev. Silas Swallow,
of Pennsylvania, was the most
consistent action that was open to
the convention, for the reason
that he has been consistent Pro-
hibitionist. General Miles candi-
dacy was an opportunist move
that, had it been successful, would
have disrupted the party.
+ would be foolish to ignore
the sentiment that keeps alive the
Prohibition party, and it would
be well to recognize the fact that
both the Democratic and Repubh-
can parties contain many oppo-
nents to the liquor traffic, but who
wisely believe they can accomplish
the most good in regulating this
business and abating in a measure
some of the evils connected with
it, by remaining in their own po-
litical organizations. Who knows
but this element may leaven the
whole after awhile.
The platform of the Prohibition
party has departed from former
declarations, and touches on top
les somewhat foreign to the one
ness of principle heretofore an
nounced-hostility to the liquor
traffic. Some of the points touch
ed upon will bear the comment
of commentator with regard to
the reforms suggested. The sue
cess of the party this year, at
least, is hopeless. The largest
vote the Prohibitionists ever poll
ed at a Presidential election was
264. 600 in 1892. 1t fell to $4,000
in 1896 and rose to 2OO,Ooo IN
1900. 1t will not be this year
much in excess of that of twelve
wears ago, and will have no share
in determining the November re-
suit.
