Today there is not a bar there, ali 16 have been banished. "You say this London bill is not backed by pub lic sentimeiitT Why it is supported by the Episcopal Church, a rreat artil- Jlcry with its officers In full dress uni- iorm singing "Rook of Ages.' Then tbere is tbe great Baptist nvy singing Sweet Fields of Eden.' while the grand Methodist infantry is behind this London bill shouting, 'Come Ye That Love the Lord." Mr. Travis, of Halifax, declared that the question was not what was right because prohibition was right and nothing short of prohibition was right. The London bill did not meet these requirements hence it was itself an acknowledgement that while total pro hibition was right yet it was not ex pedient No measure was right that discriminated against towns and coun ty, sections and localities. Why should the town having 293 people be denied a vote which is accorded to towns of S'lO or more? He argued that It would give the large towns an advantage ever the little places in getting Satur- aay night trade, for the negroes would ?o where they could get a drink or two. In Halifax there were 12 towns; under this London bill four of these towns could vote on the question while the eight would be forced to adopt prohibi tion. The petitions for this bill from Halifax had come from the four towns that could vote on tbe subject. -They said let us votj cn prohibition, but when you mention allowing the other cigl.t to vote they declare. ,"No, that would be cowardly." Ho advocated the I substitute which provides that a coun ty snail vte, if it chooses, on-whether liquor shall be manufactured and sold in only towns of 5v0 or ZOO; then re eardlcss of these these towns n ay bold elections. The only difference between he London bill and the substitute was iav.ns it to a rote of the people. Un 'ess the sentiment of a county backed ny law ft would n:t be enforced. He iQf-w good mm who considered the London bill unwise. " He quoted Rey. J. D. iiuflfcjjiu. Prof. Mills of Wake Forest, aiid ministers of the Gos- '!ci who consider the London bill an "iivv'se and unsafe incisure. The ei.tr saloons were far moie cttroctive, invit ing and dangerous than the little shoDS in the country. Whiskey does mote to cri-riipt morals in tiie cities than in the cojiut. Mr. Justice, of McDowell, said with the mth section eliminated he favor ed the London bill. He mule a power ful speech for the bill. He discussed the measure from the standpoints of morals, practicality and expediency, and emphasized cspcciallvihe matter ' cf practicality. The bill established prohibition in the country where pro hibition can be enforced, but rightly ie.it the towns, wiiere enforcement de pended ou public sentiment, to decide :t. Mr. Justice, though the last speak er, held the undivided attention of the Senators. He was interrupted by sev eral questions, srnator Woodard ask ed, "Dots the Senator think a State law can make a drunkard sober or a thief honest?" "If you -keep liquor from lum he will be sober," replied Mr. Jus tice. "Has that ever beta done?' 'askee' Mr. Woodard. ' Yes. I believe prohibi tion in the country really prohibits." declared the speaker. Touching the point of -expediency, he declared thai it was necessary to deprive the dragon of its sting. The Senate at 2:20 adjourned until 1C o'clock tomorrow. The House Friday had the Wattt liquor bill up feir consideration. Ihe Wa.tts bill and amendments came up on third rending and the firs: amendment voted on was that by'Mr Koborson, of Guiiford. prohibiting the manufacture of liquor In towns of les? than 500 Inhabitant!, of the sale of liquor In towns of less than 300. The amendment was lost. Mr. Benbow'a amendment to exempt Yadkin from the operations of the law was lost, ayes 49, noes 69. Mr. Murphy's amendment to exempt Rowan was next yotej on.

Missouri, says they are run Ing all of the negroes out of Fayett snd Howard counties and tbe whipping post.awsits those who tarry, and that the race war Is on in-earnest That ia bad very bad. Where are the poor creatures to go, for it is awful weather In Missouri, with the thermometer h low sero and blizzards raging around I wonder what they have been doing to provoke such treatment. If they move to another county, how long be fore they will have to move again? and it locks like they will petish. or freeze before the winter is ever. Some towns In Illinois have given th':m marching crdets. and it lookrlike they have no friend3 but the southern people. We used to wonder why they all did not : leave here and go up to their deliverers uu una iiu iiieir county, nut only a few wore fools enough and new they erould come back if they could. We are geting sorry for the negro. He has no nlii'lip jiip. T!vy zts tt-rknts 2-i will of the landlords. Whe'n ufia gave freedom. ta her serfs a few acres and a cottage were ailjicl to -every family, and this cbuM net be taken away not-ewn- for- debt. The "peer, shiftless laborer has a hard time everywhere. A, Irletid writes me from Quemadns. Cuba, that the wealthy SpaiarJs, who live In Spain own all the land In Cuba, and dt is exempt "from ail tax, but the laboirs who rent it have to pay tax on everything, their shantiea, their horscB and carts and 5tcek of all kinds and plantation tools. and on what produce is left after pay ing rent, and when they buy anything wnn tpanisti money they are charged 73 cents in the' dollar, and when they sell they have to take 6s cents. They ie generally no account, but can live fairly well on the bountiful products of a fertile soil and the fruits that abound everywhere. My friend says a is a most delightful climate. He has a wife und five children and never a lay's uickness. ln a drive around his place yoa will see $850,000 worth of pineapples growing, and he is now planting 20.000 morv plants, and they make good crops from Ave to ten years wiinout replanting and are worth from l1! to 3 cents apiece. It costs $30 per vie to prepare tne land and $35 more i buy the plants. The sweetest and uest oranges you ever saw grow all Dver the hills and sell for $2 a thou an:i. . then there Is grape fruit and limes and lemons and mangos, guavas, plantins. figs and grapes. Now, I was ruminating why our ne groes diun t go to Cuba., where they would not have to workhalf the time ana where they could mix and misceee nate with the natives and have social rquaiity to their heart's content. The Lubans are all colors now from nearly white to nearly black, and they will mix with any race. One day I saw a curious looking specimen In the negro ear. and' the conductor didn't know whether to move him or not, and so he asteed him: "Are you a white man or a negro," and he replied: "My fader was a i ortiiR-3c and my muder was a nag cr." The conductor smiled and let him stay. Go Into a cigar factory in Tampa and you will see a fair assortment of Cubans four hundred in one long room, and of all shades, sizes and com plexions. They have no national or race color. I should think Cuba would suit most of oiir negroes very well, for they could live on fruit and honey. My friend says he ha3 framed hives 10 feet square and robs the hives every other day in the dry season, and it is a prontahle busine-ss. But I don't see tny good reason for driving ncgrota from cne town or countyto another. V is net playing fair with the other tawns. Chief Ball re poMg that he is d-lving tbem out of At lanta, it docs not, seero to concern biro where they go sr ;hey have Atlanta. Why not take uo the vagabonds and punish them under the vagrant law and put them to work; why nt call back the whipping post? It will cure the negro of small crimes and Idleness quicker than anything in tbe world Her Bister has four ehlirlrpn an J busbanti. for he has abandoned her.l The colored barber who shaved me fori years had nd ran away with another one and; went to Hesscnier lin.i Cl-: tiL'lniwri oer on. mere are no -doubt a hundred bastard negro children within our town limits, and as Professor Dowd says, the marriage relation is now almost unknown among the negroes. This degradation cf tbe negro' has come along so gradually and insidiously that our people have po:ten-?d to it and no attention is paid to it by courts, or grand juries. W-? l ire these very ne gro women for : v.. it .v-rvants and many cf them a-.- J..-?. Their children ga 'to ; he puho'c srliocla and In time the b-?ys gut fci? enough to steal and the e;rls to fallow their mothers' examples. When will all this folly step But just n-w there secis'ta be a ces sation of political fc:s:P.!iks about the negro and the ra e pioHb ni. A kind of reaction has cr.nio. ever the northern mind, and th-y. in. are getting tired of the neg-o. in fa t. nobody seems concerned a Lou; bin: except a few poli ticians like Crumpa -ke r. of Stump sucker, or whatever his name is. But ever and an;n ti.- re ,. s a thunder ing sound from Mount Olyaintis. where Jupiter Tonans sits enthroned in royal dignity. Hark! Juniter has snoken. Then shook the hills with thunder riven and louder than the bolts of heaven, we hear a mighty voice that tolls its echvs frrm the Atlantic to the Pacific anri reverberates " among the clouds and is borne on electric cur rents from WasbiDeton tj Indianola. and whispers, "f-'fand by Minnie!" and they stand. Minnie ought to go up there and take refuge in th? white house whe-e Jupiter coull staud by her day and ' night. New let that be the G.-O. P.'s shibcleth and let It roll down th? corridors of time as a watchword "Stand by Minnie!" Bin Arp. in At lanta Constitution.
