PROHIBITION IN ALABAMA,

The disastrous effects of statewide
prohibition on the finances of Ala
bama were fortunately put on record
during the recent campaign for gov
ernor in that state. Hon. B. B. Conner
was the great apostle of prohibition
down there, and became governor on
that issue. He was succeeded by En-
met O'Neal, an anti.state-wide prohibit
zionist, and under the O'Neal admin
istration the statewide law was re-
pealed.
Under the administration of Gov
ernor O'Neal conditions morally and
financially were very greatly i'm
proved. So great was this improve
ment that the voters Of the state have
refused, on two different occasions
this year, to trust prohibitionists with
official responsibility. Congressman
Hobson undertook to defeat Oscar Un-
derwood for the United States Senate
on a platform declaring for nation
wide prohibition. He was defeated
himself In this undertaking by ma.
jority Of more than $4,000 votes.

journalist, with passion for what
be termed "botanizing is human ma

little in his makeup of the conven-
tional religious reformed. His great
experience is said to have been sug-

and taught the elements of reli-

himself, and answered the question by
establishing the first Sunday school
at Gloucester in 1870, says the London
Chronicle. It was characteristic of
the man that in his school scheme he
laid as great stress upon the incul-
cation of manners" as on the teach
ing Of the catechism.
