I
bitter enemies, has passed into history
and, now we hope that those who have
bitterly abused their lifelong political
associates, because Of a difference of opin-
ion upon a subject which is not political,
will reconsider their bitter words and re-
turn to their true alignments. Also that
the men who disputed with wives and
sweethearts, will kiss and make up-for
as usual, the will Of the good women has
prevailed, and all is dry; may God bless
them. If the people had the moral char
acter to stand mp to the moral side OF the
question, the same as they had the man
hood to stand up and vote away the sa-
looms, we will not see the demijohn hab-
it. the sneaks of speakeasy habits, and
bottles to curse the peace and happiness !
OF the people. We look forward to the
future with great concern, but hope that
there is a moral manhood sufficient to |
stamp out forcefnlly the illegal sale of ,
liquor. 1t can be done, but will our peo
pie do it? That s the question. 1t takes
moral force of character to do this. We
also have gotten over our scare about the
loss OF revenue for the State, as Nilmirg-
ton supplied nearly all OF It received from
the liquor business. believe that Sus-
sex and Kent only paid in less than
IS, 900 Of the entire amount, and az they
are the only ones dry, We will have neith-
er an increase of taxation or an extra
session Of the legislature.
We would suggest that the next great
uprising be against the filthy and vile to- :
Oacco habit. Il don't use it, and don't
want the other fellow to nasty up the
public places with the vile stuff. 1t is :
apping the moral, physical. and mental a
'itality from our brightest men and most
promising boys. To this movement we 4
will extend a hearty support, regardless :
# present or future political affiliations. y
We ask the preachers to show their earn e
st desire for the uplifting of mankind, &c
nd free us from this slavish habit. A "
ram might do some good to the drinker,
ut what good can come from the use OF 10
