Mr, Daniel’s Letter of Acceptance. GROWTH OF THE PROHIBITION SENTIMENT—EVILS OF THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC—THE PROPOSED REFORM. ‘Mr. Daniel has issued his letter accepting the nomination for Vice President on the national pro- hibition Ucket. He says that “the necessity for the prohibition of the liquor traffic 1s based upon the well-established and conceded (acts that this trafic is the producing cause of a large part of all the crime, poverty, insanity, sulcides and diseases, that exist {p the land; that It 1g the great disturber 1 the public peace, a3 well as the destroyer of do- mestic peace and happiness; that {t renders life, Uberty aud property insecure, and imposes upon the community heavy burdens of taxaUion without equivatent or consent. ‘GROWTM OF THE PROWIBITORY SENTIMENT, He says that the probibitory sentiment which Tesulted ip the Maine liquor law of 1851, and otier movements at that time was crushed uy the rebel- lion troubles of 1861, and did not again attract gen- eral attention until agitated by the Woman's Chiris- Uan Temperance union, begianing in 1878. Since then, be says, the prohibt ton sentiment has great- ly incre: until now we find tt hus incorporated ilse.f tn the statutes of Maine, New Hampshire, ‘Vermont and Iowa, and in the constitution, as weil as in the statutes, of Kansas. It has also imprinted itself upon the laws of a number of counties and localities 1n other states, north and west, whilst ils growth in the south, or what were originally the slaveholding statew, has been even greater. In Maryland, for instance, prohibitory laws prevail in some thirteen out of its twenty-three countles, and in a number of Jocaliles tn others; in South Caro- lina tn .nearly all of the rural districts outside of Incorporated towns and cities; in Georgia in some ninety or more counties out of about a Lundred and thirty-seven, besides 1p ‘the neighborhood ot churches and schools tn other counties; in Alabama. In ten to fifteen counties, and numerous other di3- tricts; In Mississipp! in large districts, and in Lou- island in many parishes; in Arkansas in large sec- ‘Uons, and In Texas several counties; whtlst in Ten- hessee, by reason of a law that Lh ented is for Within’ several miles of a schoolhouse or church, nearly or quite half of the state 1% under control. Also in Missourl some thirty counties aré probibltory, and in Ken- lucky some twenty-seven, with about every other county in the state permeated with prohibition. Moreover this sentiment in lowa was. strong enough to give a majority of neerly 30,000 for a prohibitiory constitutional ameudment some two years ago, despite of the most deter- mined efforts of the liquor leagues in opposition. In Olio about a year ago It was sufffcient to cast ‘over 32,000 votes for a similar constitutional amend- Ment that were counted and some 40,000 or more ‘that were not counted, or fraudulently counted out, the total of which would have carried it. And this result, too, in the face of the opposition of both republican and democratic pace hampered as it ‘was by coupiing it with a license amendment to be Voted ou at the same time, and the enacunent of What is known as the Scott tax law. And in Maine very recently a majority of some 44,283 has been ov- tainedfor a similar amendment, and this after a trial of thirty years or more of statutory prohibi- tion, The ple in some fifteen other states have within the last year or two besieged their respec- lve legislatures with petitions, for the purpose of alike lding for themselves the question of con- Sttutional prohibition, but have veen refused. Had their prayers been ted, prohibition would doubtless now prevail in a majority of them at Teast.
