FROM GOLD HILL.
Me. Editor:
And now we look the other way
for awhile with gratitude and
measure. The eleotion is over
and we are rejoicing over the
splendid victory that has crowned
om affarto. It if Utter than
most peojale expected, bnt not
more bo than some predicted. It
is about what I have been writing
for and claiming all the while.
When everybody, or as good as
everybody, was for us. I could
not see it possible to be otherwise.
Amaioritvof 44.000! 'Rah for
North Carolina and prohibition.
The 4ay was a bright ooe, but
warm. The election passed off
quietly with no disturbance. The
interest was intense on both sides,
bnt there were very few on the
anti side. There were but two
citizens who worked on that side,
and ond of them is interested in
some of your saloons in Salisbury,
but tbey accomplished very little
The Anti-Saloon League of Gold
Hill had a grand rally and enter
tainment on Monday night, got
ten up mainly by J. M. Proctor,
at which there was music by the
Rockwell band, recitations and
songs and splendid speeches by W
B. Smoot, of your town, and R
D. Coleman, of Gold Hill. Their
talk was simple an impressive,
their argument clear and convinc
ing. The gathering was large and
upon the whole the meeting did
much good for the cause.
On Tuesday morning everybody
was ready and eager for the battle
of ballots. A very little after
sunrise the writer cast the first
vote for prohibition at Gold Hill
precinct and the voting proceeded
rather slowly, but orderly all day .
There were quite a number of the
girls and young ladies of the town
about the polls who in a quiet or
derly way did good service by
their presencerthe distribution of
tickets and soliciting votes. At
sundown when the ballots were
counted out it was found that- 85
votes had, been cast for prohibi
tion and 2116 whites and 5
blacks had been cast against it.
in Morgan township 218 votes
were cast, 111 for prohibition and
107 against it. The two town
ships in 1881 gave only 17 votes
for prohibition. In this election
they gave abpu 360 for it. The
wetness of Salisbury made it
somewhat damp on the river side
of Morgan township, and the drys
and wets were well nigh on an
equipoise. But well done for
Gold Hill and Morgan township,
especially Gold Hill.
It seems in this election that
the manufacture and sale of liquor
ticket did not "sweep the rural
districts;" that the farmers did
not take the place of the negro
and deliver the goods ; or rather
that they made the delivery at
the other depot as hardly any
farmers at this precinct voted the
wet ticket. j. W.
