length from our article under the above head.
ing, which appeared two weeks ago, and adds
the following, which we commend to the at
tention CT our citizens:
This is indeed gloomy picture, but we
must not conclude that Cedar Falls is the
only place in the State which is represented
by it. Now, what is to be done9 Shall we
remain passive while such scenes are being
enacted, and see our youths, the hope Of our
country and Of our declining years, dragged
down the abyss Of irretrieyable ruin without
an effort to save them? And where shall
this effort begin, and who shall make it? One
man says il is a question Of iaw-of politics
and therefore Christians, and especially
ministers, have no right to moilde with it.
Another tells us it is purely a moral question,
ana political newspapers must stand aside
from such controversies or they will iniure
their party. a third asserts that women
are altogether out Of their place when they
are running round hunting up such matters
Now who is left to attend to it Only the
cold, calculating dollars and cents business
man, who publicly declares that there is no
morality in business so the thing is left I'M
checked, while wicked men and seduccrs
wax worse and worse, deceiying and being
deceived till at length the cup of iniquity Is
filed up, and it becomes mercy on the part
of heaven to remove the pollution from the
earth.
No: j! there were no other argument, We
have in the case before US abundant reason
why Christians and Christian ministers, and
political journals, and the women of our land,
and business men of all classes, should unite
in one grand effort to abate these kindred
nuiSances and 10 dry up the food Of immor-
Atty which is dcluging our land. And we
wish it understood now, hencctorth and for.
ever, that while we control press our pen
shall never rest till these denominations are
driven from our borders. And we wish to
whisper loud enough to be heard all over
this county that whoeve" cannot endure dis
course is at liberty to part company with US
whenever 1t suits their convenience.
awhile we endorse the general tone and
spirit Of the article referred to and from
which wo have SO largely quoted. there is
one feature in the decision Of the citizens of
Cedar Falls against which we must enter
our unqualified protest. II is permitting the
drinking and gambling saloons to remain on
condition that they refuse admttance to mi
nors under penalty Of serious consequences
There is neither consistency nor safety in
this course. If you tolerate these dens of in
fanny your sons will be drawn into them /:
and # meE must frequent them, why not
boys. No, no, gentlemen; make clean
work Of i. while you are about it, and let it
be known to your people and to the world
that you will not tolerate such things, and
the good will approve your course and flock
TO Your place, while the evil disposed will
leave you for a more congenal clime,' and

section would rise and sing. At two taps,
two sections, and SO on, or something like
that. At times the singing began with one
section, and section by section fell in at in
tervals until the whole 1900 were heard to-
gether. All the while, the leader was alive,
making all sorts of motions with his baton
and sometimes swaying or swinging both
arms. 1t was worth journey from Iowa to
see him. The most wonderful performance
was the prayer in muted notes or tones. 1t
was made up Of indistinguishable whispering
by the great organ. by II violins, BY base
viols, by 600 children and 1900 children, -
these many whisperings welded into one far
off musical roll or murmur Of harmony. 1t
made me think of heaven. Now and then
it would roll and swell like the ocean as it
nears the shore. All through (ten minutes,
perhaps) it was impressive. No one would
think of speaking or moving until the end.
Anything but a spirit of reverence would
seem impossible.
In contrast, during recess, was the real
whisper and hum and clatter Of the 1900.
Standing at any one point, no one could dis.
tinguish so as to say that there were more
than fifty voices. wrote down at once the
best illustration could conceive of, which
makes it like the sound of heavy rain falling
upon water from the height of 10000 miles.
The Russian officers were seated in the

them. Not to be compared to American naval
officers. For the benefit Of one party of them
