Hence, as in Texas the Demo cratic party bosses are fighting .the Amendment on party reasons. Their chief legal light, Col. John Y. Yer trees," says the Voice correspondent, tries to inflame the- Democratic fear of a new party, claiming that ; the adoption of Prohibition means : the triumph of the Prohibition party and the ruin of 4he Democracy in I the near future And he quoti Jeffer son Davis, Horatio Seymour, Samuel J.ryUden, President Cleveland, jand othres pemocratic lights to jhow There are very many noble men in our county and State who want to vole out the saloons, but who cannot leave the Democratic party in hope of doing it. They hope as Democrats to be able to do it. They are such men as J. R. MendenhaH, Rev. Frank L. Reid and a host of our bes$ citi zens. We must ask these gentlemen for an honest answer to an honest question. : Speaking of the Texas campaign the' Petersburg, Va Index Appeal (Dem ) says. "Engrafted upon 1 the constitution of Texas, it (the Prohibition Amendment) would have been a standing violation of the bill of rights and the Declaration of Independance. Prohibitory legisla tion-fusing the term in the specific sense in which it applies to the ques tion of the restriction of the .Jiquor traffic is tyrannical in the last de grea ; ! repugnant t every idea of in amauai uoexcy ; violative ot every fundamental principle of Republican government." That is Democracy. Gentlemen, are those your views If not, why do you vote that ticket ? Democratic party, is; the only hope for an hoiiest prohibitory law, " thor oughly executed.; - The Democratic party South, after all your charges against it, is a better temperance party than the Republican party North: It better execute!' the laws it has. 1 Neither will join &e other, North or South, I From both, good men must and will come rout, sup press their - long cherished ' hatred and join hands to save the nation rom tna present corruption of our politics on the "one hand, and -the in describable curse of liquor on the other.". . : An exchange " says : "Senator Colquitt is lending a hand in the Tennessee campaign to amend the State constitution forever prohibiting the manufacture and sale of alcoholic drinks. He delivered a strong and eloquent Prohibition speech to an immense audieuce at . Chattanooga recently."- . . , A grave question now arises before every Southern man. Mr. Colquit passes lor a democratic leader, one of the most beloved in the land. He also passes for an utter advocate o: the prohibition of the drink traffic On the other hand Mr. Jefferson Davison undoubted Southern oracle, says i that Democracy and the prohibition of the inalienable right to sell liquor, are diametrically op posed, and that no man can hold both views at the same time. Which of these men is unsound ? Not Mr. Davis,' certainly. Then it must be Mr. .Colquitt, in which case all Democratic dry ; voters in the South are hypocrites and pretenders. But is that so ? ; Where are we? Is Mr. Colquitt a Democrat ? : I.-- . The Repubaf party in Mas sachusetts has always occupied ' the same social standing that the Demo cratic party has here. " Some "Anti saloon Republicans have issued r an address to the voters of that State claiming that all the temper ance' legislation .gained in ihe last legislature (precious uce ox our state papers in a jingling effusion of verse, has omi nated Mr. Julian S. Carr, of Durham, as Democratic candidate for Ooveisf cor in 1888. tr Stf far as the nomina tion is concerned, it pleases us. But the rhvming editor .must be one of the greenest sticks in the back woods to name him as the Democratic can didate We have assurances that Mr. Carr is a most rabid' and persistent toiler to close ont the liquor irafiBc by law. It is an evidence to his credit that he has worked the leaky old local option law in bra -city for all it is worthl But Mr Jefferson Davis on. July 12 gave utterance to hi3i increasing belief and profound judgment that Democratic interpre tation of our constitutional liberties totall v forbids' and. -antagonizes all such laws. ..He says . they govern too' much" and destroy inalienable rights." We also have it bufned into our memory that this same view, was elegantly worded, and given to -the world in that clear-cut anti-sumptuary plank of .the' National Demo cratic platform of 1884. It solelmly sets forth that we oppose all ', sump tuary laws which vex the citizen and interfere With individual, liberties.' That is the plank on ; which stands every Democratic nominee and offi cial from Cleveland down. 1 uoes or would Mr. J. S. Carr, the high-toned christian advocate of closing the sa loons by local option elections stand on that platform? pj - , Should he do such an unthinkable thing, he would publish to the world! that all his local option business was the basest hypocrisy, the most rant ing election palaver. We expect the heavens to fall before such a state of i character can be found in Julian S. Carr." ! , lf however,true to his convictions, he should receive the nomination of the Prohibitionists, as opposed to the above expressed Democratic views? we can assure him the votea-of tens of thousands of the best votes in the, State cast by ... the cream of North State citizens white and black. Moreover as a Democratic nominee that party would be hopelessly "de feated and permanently smashed, for no trtr'e Democrat; like Mr. Davis could conscientiously vote for such a hearty believer in the un-Democratic anti-saloon legislation W is Mr. Carr. Democrats shouldV pominate only simon-pure Democrats. ; Republicans should nominate only genuine Re publicans, (as they didn't last rime). And Prohibitionists should be sure to nominate only radical Prohibition ists, who for the intensity of their conviction and declaration have left or been kicked out of the other par ties ;i . Give us the man who knows just where he is, and isn't afraid 'to say so. ' "' ' Sam Jones, Sam Smsll jjdikn- ator Colquitt have probably jgrress ed more Northern peple . any other ten of our far-Southern white men. It sometimes- happens that our orators go North ud talk what they; don't believe when they are, at home." In the above reicases we do not believe this te JA fact. We don't "believe Mr. Ciplqtiitt gives him self away, for, espocialiry since the DauSBOti-Prohibition ;;; Democratic can be- a HigK License ; Christian until he can reconcile Jesus Christ and this fearful traffic. sIr swas born and bred a Democrat! and lived a Democrat us long as.

But now that the jim-jams of an insane folly have been quieted, good men, more than ever should put their, heads together in .search of sober and sure methods -of arresting and muzzling the demon of ' drink." Brethren henceforth occasionally remind yourselyes.r.tht :the great Democratic oracle and platform maker brands all local "option elec tions, air Amendment campaigns, all ballots like 1881, "the jim-jams of , an insane folly." Remember also that Mr. Jefferson Davis alludes to it as "the popularism of the day." - The; theory amopg.too piany of our Democratic friend as to -tlie negro editor has been : that no good could oome out of IMazareth.

He declares that he' wil hereafter -vote the Prohibition ticket and that his paper will support the Prohibition, candidates .in the fal campaign in this State.' Last Satur day Mr.' Fortune gave a' Voice repor ter the reasons for liis position,; and some of his views whv colored men generally should vote for Prohibi tion. The colored men," said he,"Bhould support tLe Prohibition party because it is the only party which .commends itself to the reasonable voter.- It has taken the place of the Republican party, as the party of 'great mora1 ideas;' The other parties are simply after the offices and spoils. There is now no difference between the fun damental principles of the Republi can and Democratic parties. The time is opportune -for a party with some central principle which appeal to the te.ison nd good sense of the American people. - Such a party is the Prohibition party. : There is no evirm the South to day which affects more - injuriously both white and black than the rum traffic , One half of the violence per petrated by. the .whites is traceable to this traffic ; and more than one-hal of the petty erinies amioug the color ed people 13 due to the same eause. It is the general demoralizer. Stamp it but aud you stamp out to a large extent violence and petty crime. . "As far as the South is concerned I believe the temperance question is the only 'one which can effectually divide the solidwhite vote and the meeting was a1 'success; "-There were about 40 nimisters in attend ance, among whom were 18 Local Preachers, 9 Itinerants, 2 Presiding Elders, 5 Editors,..!
