THOMSOnTwa., JUNE IS, 1884.
A horrible and as yet mysterious mur
der was committed in Atlanta lust week.
Oil Thursday night Mrs. Hose, the
young wife of a railroad ojicrative, retir
ed to sleep with her little child, her hus
band being absent from home. A young
woman named Frasier slept in another
bed in tho lutmi room. During tho
night. Miss Frazier was awakened from
sleep by a noise iu tho room, and, on
liglit'ng a candle, found Mrs. ltose ex
piring with n pistol ball through her
brain. A trunk in the- room bad been
o|Hiued, a pistol left lying on the man.
tlepieeu was gone, uud there were un
mistakable evidences that someone hod
jumped out of the window and escaped.
JSut there is no satisfactory clue to the
murder. Mr. llose, tlie husband, Miss
Frazier mid another young woman have
been arrested. but nothing defllfiito has
been elicited, and an ioijieiiatrable mys
tery seems to shroud tlie bloody deed.
PROHIBITION.
Wo present this week a short article
from n gentleman from Boston, Moss.,
blit who resided for msny year* in the
State of Maine. Ilia high character as
a citizen together with bis long expe
rience as an editor of a prominent paper
hi that Blute entitle his views to tlie
greatest respect from those who are in
search of truth hi regard to tho vexed
question of prohibition.

REV. W. A. CANDLER ON PROHI
BITION.
We have not the apace to disenss
more than the leading statements aud ar
guments embraced iu the address on pro
hibition, delivered by Mr. Candler in
this place on the 25th ultimo. His dis
course was able and eloquent, and pre
sented the cause of prohibition, no doubt,
in quite as strong aud favorable a light
as the facts of the cose would justify.
But he presented only one aide of tb
great problem, and much of his argu
ment has no beating whatever upon the
isoße now before the people of McDuffie
county,
Iu attxmptmg to prove prohibition a
success, with few exceptions, be gives
the testimony of its advocates only, ig
noring well established facts aud the
assertions of unimpeachable witnesses
to tlie contrary. Ho argues tbnt prohi
bition is n success in Kansas because all
of tho bars iu own tewn (Parsons) were
closed by the law. But he doe* not
state the (nr more significant fact, that
Mr. Bt. John, tlie great apostle of pro
hibition in that State, was elected Gov
ernor on that issue by over 60,000 ma
jority ; bat, wheu ho was a candidate for
reolection on the same istne, the work
ings of the law had proved so objectiona
ble to tlie people that he was defeated
by over 12,000 votes. It would lie dif
ficult to imagine a more earnest and em
phutio condemnation of an odious law
tbuu was expressed in that vote of the
people.
Mr. Candler also cites the protests of
tho Liquor Dealers aud tho Brewers As
sociations against the injury to their
business by prohibitory legislation, as a
proof that prohibition, at least to a cer
tain extent, does prohibit. In our hum
blo opiuiou, tho protests of these two
Assooiatious are about tho strongest ar
gument against prohibition tbnt oould
be produced, at leant to tbe people of tbe
Bouth, It is well known that prohibito
ry laws do considerably diminish the
sale and consumption of beer, because
of its bulkiuess aud difficulty of UuutUiug
it; but tho oousumptiou of whiskey, u
far more concentrated and dangerous in
toxicant, is invariable increased. It is
slso well known that in oonulries Where
bocr nnd wines are tho prevailing bever
ages, drunkenness is comparatively rare,
while tho opposite is truo where whiskey
and bruudy arc principally used. The
more striugaut and rigid the prohibitory
laws, tho moro certainly aud rapidly do
the milder beverages give way to tbe
stronger, aud they iu turn are supplant
ed by tho horrible almost liopidess habit
of opium eating.
Again : The business of these two As
sociations, aud of all others ongaged in
the liquor traffic, is recognized as legiti
mate by the Constitution and laws of the
United States, which guarantee them
perfect uud entire protection for nil
rights, privileges and property connect
ad with cr invested in the same. There
fore all laws militating against these, or
any other recognized uud guaranteed
rights of business aud pro|>srty, are, to
say tho least of it, c-rlmounatitutimial,
and are based npou tliut “higher law"
doctrine which made abolitionism .pos
sible and culminated in the lato whole
sale robbery of the South. Jf we say
that the liquor traffic i* a crime, we
i must remember that slavery was also
branded as llie blackest crime on the
calendar, nnd that mou who have their
pro|>orty inverted iti tho liquor traffic
have just ns much right, under the Con
stitution aud Inws of the United Slates,
j to protest against its destruction ns had
[ those whose property was invested in
slaws.
Mr. Oaudler asserts tlmt the result in
Maine shows that prohibition prohibits,
and that, after a trial of over thirty
years, tlio people lest year engrafted it
upon their constitution. Prohibition be
ing one of the planks of the Radical
platform, it is au easy matter to procure
nioli an enactment in snob a Slate as
Maine. But, if there is any truth in
humanity, Mr. Candler is certainly mis-
I taken. Speaking of prohibition iu that
Sitnto, and the proposition to make it a
part of the Constitution, the Savanuab
News said:
"Prohibition appears to mean a groat
, deal more iu (laorgia time it does in
Alamo. There la certainly not so inueh
i parade made over it iu the Southern as
m the Northern Htute. Notwithstanding
the vast amount of teiuperauco work
that has been done in Marne the amount
I of lutojicutiug liquor wild within its bor
ders is enui mens, and now when it is
proposed to put a prohibition amend
ment iu the constitution the ablest advo
cates of temp iranee in the State rise np
usd oppose it on the ground that it ohii
not Ihi uforccd, because puhlio senti
ment is not ri|e for it."
Hon. Titos. W. Pittman, of New York,
iu a recent lecture ou intemperance ami
crime, gsve some startling statistics.
He said that Maine has a had showing,
there being m Portland last year 3,350
arrests, I,l'JOof which were for drnuk
eniieas and drnukeu brawls. The lec
turer exposed the private uhlb* of Port
land, Hangor and other large towna iu
tlti* State, and the easy maimer in which
liquor can bo"procnrcd iu Maibo, both
privately aud publicly, aud emphatically
proesimed that Prohibition does not
prohibit ualem itnkirsed and sustained
by public aeuliuivut of the majority, who
must compel the public authorities to
enforce the law. He advocated Hie mor
al methods for tin drunkard aud kiud
neat aud humanity for tie reformation
of crimiuals aud the abolition of prison
contract labor aud cruel pnuishmeut.
His statements relative to the open vio
lation of the Maiue liquor law aud iu
eroastal drunkenness iu the State have
created a profound seusutiou among all
classes, especially among Prohibitionists.
Out readers aid remember t 1 ii
i
Imitative and unanswerable article by
Dr. Dio Lewis, of Boelon, which we
published a few weeks ago. Himself
an ardent temperance advocate and pro
hibitionist of long standing, be is forced,
from personal observation and investiga
tion to the conclusion that in Maine ee
well as Massachusetts prohibition has
proven to be worse than a failure.
In addition to this testimony, we pab
lish to-day a letter from a gentleman
now living in Boston, whoso facilities for
ascertaining the truth of this matter
have been unsurpassed, aud whose char
acter for truthfulness cannot be im
peached. ,His statements are indeed
startling, and will strike deep into the
minds of those who are not too much
blinded by prejudice to see, and who are
honestly seeking light upon this vexed
question.
We postpone farther comments until
next issue.
