H--------- PROHIBITION DOWN SOUTH.

About the last place in which one would expect 10 find n real prohibition movement would bc in tho state of Kentucky. Yet, strange as it may seem, tho state of Kentucky, n state noted all over the bibulous world ns the home and head center of 'good liquor," is just now the focus of an active and earnest campaign. It is not proposed at present 10 make state question of the matter, but they are taking it up in localities, here and there, and tho question is being agi. ,ated by the people of at least two. thirds of the state, and several local. itics have already "gonc dry"
 Tennessee has also joined the pro. cession. and at n recent election Knox vile voted against the saloons, and will surrender her present charter and secure new one in order to get rid of them. The campaign was vigor. ously conducted with the friends of temperance on one side and the saloons in the forefront on the other. \ ma ior. fly of 2.000 votes was boiled by the drys, and the result fired the cnthusi. ! asm of the community.
 This is n notable victory. Knox. vile is II thriving city. and her people nrc full of push and enterprise. The cause of temperance is advancing in Tennessee. and having reached the cit. ics from it's winnings m the small towns and country communities may be expected soon io control tho whole sit ua'ion, social. commercial, and polit ical. Some of the ablcst politicians in the state arc now among it's most out. spoken advocates.
 Hut these two states do not stand alone in that section of the country in this awakening. Other states in the south are yielding to the same in flucnccs. IL is the surprise of the time, 10 sec this cause tackle it's enemy wher, for SO long that enemy appeared 10 be inprcgnablc, and carry contest after contest of tho hottest description. First the homes combined, and then th, churches joined. and together they brought many of the politicians into camp.
 We are told that Inc race question i, involved; that the chief purpose is tc strike down the low doggeries wher, the vicious whites and blacks gather and squandcr their small earnings, ant then scattcr for mischief. If that alon, explains the movement, it is justified The drunken negro, even more than tn, drunken white man, is the worst chem, of his people. His offenscs provok. greater popular sOutbursts than those oi the low white man who swills in hi company; and when the nobs begir they are often indiscriminate in th, fury of their punishmcnts. Tho crim, of ono drunken negro may entail ruil upon twenty innocent and worthy mer of his race. The appalling tragedy al Atlanta last year grow out of the in fuence of disrcputable drinking places where tho idle of both races hobnobbe, in dcpravcd familiarity.
 Will this movement spread sufficient ly to give it weight in next years national campaign' The rich distiller and the richer brewers have had n strong "pull" with the two grea parties as any of the great trusts.
