Prohibition and Politics.
Statesyilla Landmark


The prohibition question promises
to figure in the campaign in a num-
ber Of counties in the State. There
has been much muttering in Vance
county and it is announced from
Henderson that unless the nominee
of the Democratic county convention
for the Legislature will pledge him
self to work and vote for the repeal
OF the law, there will be an independ-
ent candidate on that platform. In
Wake county the prohibition issue
has split the Democratic party and
the same issue seems to be figuring
in Rowan. These efforts to overturn
the prohibition law can result In
nothing but strife and division. It
Is The Landmarks Judgment that
on vote Of the entire State prohibi-
tion is stronger today than when it
was adopted. 1t may have been
weakened in localities where the law
is not enforced; but the attempts to
overthrow it where 1t is not strong
cannot affect the whole structure un-
less there is such general laxness in
the enforcement OF the law through
out the State as to produce feeling
OF disgust.
