Now, i' will no doubt be as great a surprise to them, as it was to me to learn, that prohibition, is reallv, hut a secondary consideration with I the leadeis their expressed determination to destroy the Republican partv as a means of complete reconciliation of the

South to the North. Anil the object of this jueiting was to cajole the old soldiers into engaging in the delectable work by enlisting in the "Army of the Klue and I the (iiev"—membership ioe $1. dues, —atu! oledging themselves to

tended the Prohibition State Convention held here la-t I huixlav, and I have arrived at the conclusion that the leaders ot this party are up to '-wav*. that arc dark and tricks that are vain." The platform adopted was broad as the earth the alacrity with which they declared for female suffrage only quailed bv their hopeless inability toconfer.il, A lull State 'icket was nominated and all nomination* and

solutions were made unanimous. The aporing- ot the various speakers were cheered to the echo bv the lone-haired, hor!-sighted delegates, good people, who ave kept them*elve aloof from the world md ate as little children ir. the band* ol scheming ami designing men. Rev. J. S. Hughes was. nominated for Governor, and in his speech ot acceptance he stabbed and jabbed at the Republican paitv wish a inaignUy indescribable. Among other things he said Captain White, o! the TwelMb District, owed his cat in Cony res*, to thct «ci that he is a wholesale liquor dealer, the

Democratic members ol the Itou*e vdimj I to sustain him foi this reason. Not a word of theoverwheltning majority with which 'hat gallant Republican carried his district not a word of the mayniticent *oldie» record that cleared his tnIe citizenship this preacher politician mu*t needs dision the truth Captain White held druggist's license to belittle the Repub can tv.

He said: As long as Sim Cov kep* his hands off Republican offices he all right, but when rie attempted t-. steal their otVires they promptly condemned him to the penitentiary—ihey send their own whisky dealers to Congres*." Not word ol censure had he tor the critn ol violating the ballot, box indeed he did no *ec:n to deem it a matter of much moment lust a little thing that Republicans, lor selfish reasons, had made an unnecessary tir about, it i^ high time that the beloved disciple, Captaii.

Captain Ritter was one of the most active members of the fatuous "Citizens Committee," organized secure the conviction of the tally thieves, anil he knows that the only Republican, officially, connected with the pro*ec.ution, a*ide Irom seven, of the twelve jurymen, was Judge Wood*, before whom the cast* was tried.

Your correspondent was promptly on time as wire perhaps fiftv comrades—the one delegate who had worn the grey had the decency to be ashamed of it and did not return. While the "grand march" did not materialize a most amazing scheme did. Now vou know wc have been told, by well meaning people who believed what they said that, if ihe

It was turther intimated that so bitter is the hatred in the .South toward the Republican party that irom now until alter the election the the fish of the Southern lagoon will fatten on the carcasses ot the Ireedmen. '1 he rick's mission ot the Prohibitionist is to revolucisy. lionize this state of afiairs bv destroying the party "that arouses these bitter memories to imbue the murderous hearts with fraternity, charity and lovaltv and to cause them to love their former slaves as they love themselves.
