He "said that, like his eminent opponent, hie might say, *'You all knowwhere 1 stand,” but he would go farther than thal, and state that e was unalterably opposed to tho amendment, and if elected governor weuld oppose the enactment of any sumptuary legislation, Mr. Boya's speech was entnusiastically re- ceived. County Attorney Mahoney followed M, Boyd aud made a forceful speech agaiust pro- hibition.
