The Gazette does not seem to be resting easy in the uttitude it has chosen to place itself regarding the case of Officer Welch, and yesterday devotes another column to an explanaliou of its position.

The Paris Gaaette, which the Express believes to be a paper of remarkable judgment, says: The Terre Haute Daily Express is improving all the time, and is becoming a necessity in the Central Wabash valley as a medium for the first news of the day. It leads all other Indiana dailies outside of the Hoosier capital, in the matter of enterprise in the way of copious telegraph dispatches especially, which it furnishes in this locality ahead of all other dailies. Mr. Allen is a wide* awake newspaper man and fully understands the wants of the people.

The Gazette says Officer Kunz was vindicated. How? And if ao, on what charge was he vindicated. Suppose we admit that, as an employe of the *ailro.vl company, he ejected a man from the depot who was violating the Tules of the company. After this man was ejected he was guilty of bo flense against the law. Why, tiion, were the nippers pnt hiu»? Why was he taken to jail *f nr he reaelwd the street, he would have justilied in knocking down Kunz or any oiher man who assaulted im. Oh no, the truth is the policeman thought he had caught thief.

i%

Ladies and Gewtlkioqi It is with inexpressible pleasure we meet, welcome and greet yon but the occasion which requires me, the first vice-presi-dent- of the prohibition council, to preside over your deliberations at this time, is truly a sad, sbrroWful and' lamentable one. Our captain', belOVed, able and efficient, leader and president, Dr. James W. F. Gerrisb, and our worthy, respected' and beloved second vice-presidefitj Hon. John W. Copner, having, since' our last meeting, both departed this life. They were earnest, honest, candid, able and conscientious leaders, whose great hearts and sonls were in onr work, and of them it may truthfully be said, their state and country are better because they lived. And whilst our hearts bleed with sorrow beyond expression, we can better show our respect and love for them by emulating their good works.

This society was temporarily organized August 12,1879, and permanently the 13th of' November following, at which time Dr. Geirish was elected president. The necessities and the condition of the cause then, as well as now, demanded this organization. The object of this organization and of its present necessity is quite tersely expressed in the call Which produced it, and may forcibly be learned in all of its w:orks from that time to the present In this call, sijgned by€. Swengle and othera, it is said "King AlcohoFs strength is fat greater than ours, because his forces are united and' ours are divided. We beHeve the -united efforts of all temperance societies of the sitate being brought to bear on our common enemy, would overbalance hiB influence and thus relieve the rising generation from our terrible surroundings." This isindeed a holy truth, and assure as the heavens exist "united we stand, divided we fall.'" No one who loves the cause for which we are striving will suffer himself to foiget this fact. In its strict observance is anchored our' sure success, and in its departure, certain failure. Loyalty, and nothing less than true loyalty, to this fundamental principle, must be listened to by any one who has the good of the cause at heart.

The executive committee, upon whom our constitution places the general superintehdency of the work, on February 11, 1880, recomitaended that jour /'united efforts" be centered in an endeavbr to secure a "constitutional amendment prohibiting Uie manufacture and sale bf intoxicating liquors as a beverage." This was truly a wise recommendation. Under our form of government no well grounded objection can posBibly be urged against it. All parties Who liave any respect for themselves or their utterances, are compelled to admit that intemperance is the greatest evil of the age. With this universally acknowledged fact, eomee the important inquiry, what is best to be done to prevent this evil. As needlesa as the same may be, there is a diversity of opinion on this point Which has to be met and disposed of. This fact makes a salutary plan for its settlement absolutely necessary. Legislature after Legislature had considered and acted on the same, but with little if any abatement of the evil. In this direction and from this source, to the man who reflects and reasons, even the shadow of a hope is absolutely extinguished. That this is true no one whorespects truth can deny. We then have but the one conrse left, namely, for the sovereign masters, the independent electors, to settle it. No good reason can be assigned why they should not act. No fairer or better method can be devised. Every mj£n who respecta or loves our form of government must admit this fact. Succeed or fail, we must live or die by this democratic idea. Prohibition once a partlof our constitution, demagogues and |artisans who only look to success, will be relegated to the rear, and in the front we will have sober and honest men guided by principle and the good of tbe state. We must think of no change. Beyond question we have adopted tbe wise course and we must .not abandon it until the happy condition it contemplates is a fixed and unalterable fact.

But what has been our work and success While we have not accomplished all of which a few claim they had a right to expect, we have far exceeded the expectation of many. With the recommendations of the executive committee for constitutional prohibition, they also'recommend the circulation of a petition praying the legislature to agree to such a propped amendment to onr state constitution. Thiq was done, and near fifty thousand of the legal and qualified voters of our state signed the same. Tbe legislature of 1881 respected these petitions, and being willing to thist tbe people, agreed to such amendment. Next, the National party in convention .resolved to do the same thing. Next the Democratic party in convention resolved against Prohibition, but intimated that they possibly might in what they called a constitutional way, agree to the submission of the same, and if so, the same should be submitted to the electors at a general election. Next, the Republican paity, in state convention. resolved that the same 'was a nonpartisan question, and should be agreed to, and be submitted to the electors at a special election. Ne?t, under these issues, we had a popular majority who Bayed agree to the same, of near 3,000 votes. Next, the senate of 1883, without a shadow of a pretext, dodged the queetion, while the house, evefy member of which was fresh from the peoelected the fall be-

have them point out how,' or whatf purely partisan principle they advocated in the last election which was as popular in the legislature of 1883, was ours? Such they cannot do. On the contrary, it helped them. The election in this state demonstrates the fact. If they do'not see it, they are blind to their own interests. To this, take a glance at the question somewhat more extensively, it iB claimed that revolutions move slowly but never backwards. Prohibition itself may be considered an old queetion w! has moved rather- slowly, Tut the: key of its solution*— constitutional prohibition—is comparatively a new one. To-day ito fast friends are found in every state of the Union. It has received some consideration: in the halls of our. National Congress One state has secured constitutional prohibition,—it has been voted down in another,—carried by an overwhelming majority in an.other, but annulled by the supreme court, wi&hoqt. a substantial reasont—is now pending before the electors m* another, a^d is, the main question at issue between the political parties in an, excjUiiv canw paign in. a state where it was,carried by the electors, and in a few diaysits second triumph will be heard, from one end of the country to the other. Indeed, we have no cause to* be d^r couraged. Constitutional prohibit^pii is the doming question .of the day,' its march is eteady, and if its friends are true' and firm' its ultimate victory is assured.

For our state, we have endeavored to avoid making it a partisan question. This we would yet love to do, not because we are afraid, because we believe the party that heartily assumed our 'cause is the party of assured success, but: for the reason that our cause in its very nature should be non-partisan. The evils of intemperance are. not confined to oije party alone. All parties should be interested in its suppression. Why our party leaders cannot see this obvious fact must always remain a dark mystery. In each party there are thousands of free and independent voters, with whom constitutional prohibition is not dnly the paramount question, but is the question which Will unqualifiedly govern both their political and partisan actions. All these electors want is evidence of honeet action in this particular, and the same, can and will have their honestsdpport. Every honest and intelligent party

In ,view of these facts,, and ,the present condition, of our cause,' it does seem to us tliat we are now fully justified in asserting ourselves clearly and plainly. In doing so we should be very "particular to say just what we mean, and to mean just what we Bay Siich is wisdom, and such action will only result in good to the cause we love. Whether we like it or not, one of the great weaknesses which we aire laboring under to-day is the general impression that we never live up to Our pretentions that we Bimply declare and resolve and never act. Whether this charge is true or or false, we need not now stop to con-, sider. YVe can from this time forward stamp the impression as false.

Our opponents, the rum power, .act upon this principle and are so regarded and credited, and by it they are courted, respected and loved by the dema-^ gogues and partisans who only care for success, and on the oiher band are dreaded and feared byinthe

man of

principle II they are the wrong and we are in :lie right, why should we be less loyal and true to our cause than they to theirs. They have no hesitation in approving and condemning parties and persons. In this we) speak from the records, and the evi-^ dene© is unexhaustable.

other* cares as not to do something. In every community where two or three prohibitionists can be found, they must be gathered togeth^r and started to work. We are not prepared to say that we have too much speech making, but we are prepared to say we have not enough local organization and pergonal work, which are our greatest element of success. A preacher may preach grandly and eloquently,, but he will accomplish but •Utile un&' Be organizes a society, «nd thus b^pwe. the perswial work-of his members, 'the same is equally tnie with pur cause. We^ can j«compl«sh but little by grand and eloquent speaking UntaHi we fom^organizitionB and secure the personal work of our friends. Every society thus foroSed and kept alive! Foot half sow Willi annually increase prohibition sentiment one hundred per cent... To do this we must have laborers: And the Bible says, "the laborer is worthy _ot his hire," and if eo, y/e must not only have them, but they must be paid. This cannot be Stpeeted,—all must-help,

For this we should rejoice, as it furnishes a good opportunity for ua all to do: something iu this patriotic work. However, in so doiqg,. we need not feel we were giving, "but Simply aiding a good cause, for which we Will receive valuable consideration.' JuBt the consideration wemaynever know fully, vet it may be the relief from a life of fearful anxiety and sorrow oyer the dissippation and ruin of a near and dear one.! Indeed, a small sum spent for the advancement of ouir cause may prov^ a wonderful consideration. Let 'n0 loving father or mother, or kindtiearfed mat or woman overlook this -fact when asked to pay something for Our good work- Money is always -well Expended when it goes to purchase comfort and happiness, and this is the work we are exclusively engaged in.

the money part. To this thought we here desire to call tiie attention of all our officers and workers, and to say, with our cause they should not fail, and if tliey do, it Should be greatly charged to inefficiency.

As: to our ultimate success no ono need fear. We are working in the direct 'interest of civilization, progress and humanity, and must succeed,' and as we have morality ainl all good people and God on our side, failu is impossible if w© but do onr duty. N: one whb has faith like unto a ^rmin of muBtard seed can doubt tlii fact'. Tin listen to what we now siay—our taints mustj not be buried, but in cvtry possible way improved. By this ineans success jean be attained," and failure rendered impossible. Within the next six months there milBt be fr'i fifteen hundred to two thousand clubs or societies formed in our state, operating •mil working on one common plan aim* ing' at one common end. TheSe organizations most average not ltn than ten free and independent voter of each political partjy, who believe in tlie most sacred, principles of a free government, and in constitutional prohibition, with all their souls, mind and strength, and in principle, above all party tie® and obligations, and Who will, without mental1 Reservation, unqualifiedly and unconditionally Pledge themselves as we have indicated, and come weal or woe, survive or perish, live and die by their pledge. Let no faint-hearted person say jthis cannot be done, for where there in a will there is away by which all possible things may be done, as is absolutely the fact in our case. This once performed and we have prohibition under the hollow of our hands, and maintained the sovereignty of the people. To do this work is the absolute duty of this society. Every 8vil, moral and Christian interest of our state demands its strict performance, many of the great public business interests of the country are beginning to move in our interest, and will before long clasp hands with us.
