RKPTJBLICAN PARTY AND PRO
HIBITION. ;:" .'X;:
- Nine-tenths of all the Republicans
in Ncrth Carolina "were from the very
first igainst the bill parsed by the last
Democratic General Assembly called
prohibition, not from any hostility to
tAmnrancf 1 hut ' h'n account of iht I
charter of the present, bill."; The Jead-
ere
6f the party hate considered, theact j
of the legislature verycarefully. and
consulted together fuliyand after such, j
consideration they baye coTie to the
conclusion to oppose the bill as it ;s an
anrepnblican measure.
The -Republican State Committee
convened at Raleigh on Thursday, the
9lh int., ind after a lull discussion of
the matter the Committee instructed
Dr. J. J. Mott, the Chairman, to issue
an address to the. people , of the state
setting 'Jf& thf ?eson why, they
should vote against the act prohibiting
the manufacture 6f liquor, and 'pre
scribing who shall sell it. The address
criticizes the act of the JJemocrauc
egislature in its class legislationfully,
arlji w hope the people of the state
will read the paper and copsider fully
the points made against th.U-pr0sc.rip7
tive Democratic policy, i
The Republioan party of the slate
has ever been oppose J to class legisla-'
tiou. It lias been tne policy or tne
party to stand bjr Republican micas-
Hrevaod therefore the act of the State
Commiitec in placing -the Republican
party j the state oa: record ugainst
this lat. tyranny of'D,emocracy yill be
oppaed by a large msjority. The leg:
Ulatyre docs, not prohibit the sale of
liquor, but l hey claim the right to ayj
who Abatlell, In other words evtry
doctor hnp and every drug store in
North Carolina' will be turned into a
bar room. They allow professional
gentlemen to Bell, but will not permijtj
the poor grocerymnn to do thsame,anOj
while they allcfw it to be sold, fhey pro
hibit entirely tbe manufacture of liquor
In other words, Virginia' Tennessee,
Georgia arid Scu'h Carolina will man
ufacture the liqupr for t1 e consumWa
in North-Carolina,,, and thereby make
th f uoimus profits out of it, which

We are in favor of temperance in
every particular. We. should be glad to
see all the mouty spent in ibis state for
wuiskey put in school.- tut when the
Democratic Legislature ucdertakes to
tyraituize over the business men of North
Carolina, by saying they sha'.l not sell
liquor, but that the doctors ard drug
gists may, we are bound to xaida our
vo,c0 and uje ourf ictlueuce agaiuit
