SEABORN WRIGHT A WINNER
IN PROHIBITION CAMPAIGNS.
Georgia's brainy and brilliant
‘temperance leader, Hon. Seaborn
I Wright, of Home, has been in Il
linois recently delivering temper-,
.•nice lee*ores. The result of bis ;
work, coupled with that of the
good people of Illinois, was shown 1
at the polls a few days since when |
It he state went dry by a good ma
jority. Mr. Wright is sincere in
the work, lie worked for years
and year* (pari of t lie time almost
single-handed and alone) to get
whisky out of his home town ami
countv: and when this was done
ho went to work to help in moving
! liquor out of the state; and after
the great victory was won for our
state he wont ovor to Alabama and
helped the good people in that
state in moving out the "liquor
dives." Mr. Wright seems to be 1
; a winner in all prohibition tights.
The Albany Herald, which first
lamented "Brown's mistake,"
then discovered that he had not
"set the woods alitv," now advises
Hoke to uei down to harv work—
"hammer and tongs"—to save
his bacon. There is an illdtsguis
od panic on among Hoke's triends,
i The Telegraph advised them at
the start to put their cars to the
ground ami they would hear the
oncoming tread of the Brown col
umn. But now they can hear it
in the air, and the long distance
telephone vibrations arc not nec
essary. A wayfaring man can
stand flat footed and erect and
hear it. —Macon Telegraph.
The charge that the Anti Prohi
ttoni*i-s are behind Joe Brown in
lus campaign is a lie out of whole
,cloth, ai d the parties who origi
nated such a rumor know it,
Joe Brown is a better, more re
liable anti more sincere prohibi
tionist than link- Smith ever
dared to l*e.—\\ ay cross Herald.
