CONGRATULATIONS from Abroad.

The following are specimens of the
words Of cheer which our temperance
workers are receiving from other local.
ties. One Of the brightest lights of the
legal profession in this district, residing
in neighboring county, says i'll a pri-
vate letter:
Our people are delighted to learn
that your labors have been so success
full; they have in truth been unprecedent-
ed. And now, while you are flushed
with the heat of the battle and the joys
of victory, let me caution your good
people, over and over again, to do moth
ing for revenge or which may seem such.
The victors can afford to be magnani
nous But l do not advise any weak
ness. Firmness and temperance in this
suspicious hour will bring you q rich
harvest.
Your proceedings have thus far been
conducted with singular skill and judy
ment. never knew of so thorough a
triumph in such proceedings before in
all my experience, now not brief one
on both sides of this holy cause.
Another enthusiastic laborer in the
cause of temperance writes as follows:
"Allow me to congratulate you on the
success of your prosecutions. The work
has only begun; now is the time to
make these men feel you are their
friends, and that the prosecutions were
for their benefit and the good of their
posterity. My experience is that fol-
lowing such an agitation as you have
had is the best time to work upon the
better part of mems natures. The firm,
sure tone of the BULLETIN upon the
temperance question has done much to
bring about the present glorious results
in your city, and know you are willing
to do your part toward restoring these
unfortunate men to their manhood.
Personal conversation with them; per-
sonal appeal to their manhood; person
al efforts to get them into the society of
temperance men, is work that tells
upon the lowest of them, and with a
hope that the highest possible good
may result from your work, | am,
your friend,

Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1877-11-23

In the warm and exciting discussions
in our streets and stores consequent up
on the liquor raid of last week, we have
heard again and again the idea advanced
that the town cannot be run without
whisky; that its business interests will
decline and die out, its trade dwindle
and gradual decay set in, unless, besides
large stocks of goods, healthy COMPETE
ton and low prices, we can furnish GUS
toners from the country, as additional
inducement to do their trading with us,
easy facility for filing themselves with
whisky and going home blind drunk,
This assumption, besides being insulting
to the farming population,--not one
in ten of whom arc influenced by any
such consideration, is without truth or
reason, and to prove this, We quote the
following item from the Usage Ne,cs, Of
last week:
demonstrativc dry goods houses during the
week ending Nov 10th. We have seen the
vouchers for the accuracy Of this item, and the
word of the firm would be sufficient guaranty
of the same In the absence Of any such proof.
Now, the significance of the above
item for our purpose, lies In the fact
that Usage has less than 1000 inhabit-
ants, and that there is not a saloon ~ the
place. Before the Punishment of the
saloons there, the croakers brought for
ward the same argument, that such ac-
ton would hurt the trade, that grass
| would grow in the streets, &c. The
above item shows how much truth there
was in the cry, and what is true Of Usage,
is true Of Independence. If it is indeed
true that our trade has got to so low an
ebb that it requires whisky to keep it
from collapsing, it may as well go first
as last. But it is not true, as the exper-
ience Of tho pext few Wopths will dep
onstrate,

| EDITOR BULLETIN Allow woman
to say word on the momentous ques-
ton which is being discussed with such
deep interest by us all.
would like to ask the voters why
such q hue ind cry over enforcing your
own laws? Are these laws on your
statute books merely for effect? Why
is the State taxed to sustain legisla-
ture that makes laws you do not wish
enforced?
As I was passing down Main street,
heard this remark-with an oath, of
course: 'The women better mind their
own business; it is nothing to them" l
would like to enquire whose business it
is, if not the mothers of your town?
Are they not the sufferers? Is it moth
ing to be turned from your door with
curses at the midnight hour, as was
done only few days ago by one of your
citizens? Is it nothing to shrink from
appearing upon the street for fear Of
seeing the form OF an intoxicated hus-
band or father. Is it nothing to see
groups of respectable citizens laughing
and jeering over the acts of one that is
near and dear? Is it nothing to be
treated with contempt and disdain-ev-
en- thrust into the street-as we humble
ourselves before these law-breakers and
inaplore them not to sell to our fathers
and sons?
Oh, that you could all realize the sor-
rows of the wife, worse than widowed;
the children more than orphaned; there
would be less ridicule of these noble
hearted women, who are willing to face
public sentiment for the sake of right.
They do not want notoricty; it is thrust
upon them Can we be true Christians
and refuse to do that which we know to
be our duty? Can we be true mothers
and shrink from that which will keep
our sons from temptation? How can
we expect our names to be enrolled in
the Lambs Book of Life if we sit with
folded hands and work not for the Mas
ter? Have we nothing to do in this
great work OF saving souls from destruc-
ton? There may have been mistakes;
did you ever know an organization of
any kind but what might have done
little differently, in your estimation.
Perhaps this committee that has labor
ed so long and faithfully may have COM
mitted some errors. Could you have
done as well?
Citizens, we ask your support, your
endorsement. If you cannot agree as to
the manner of putting down this evil,
keep silent; do not scott and ridicule
those that are doing all in their power
to keep temptation from your door.
Treat them with respect and show by
your action that their labor is apprecia-
ted. Mothers and daughters, BE not
weary in well doing" still continue to
work and pray Shrink not from the
right, and success will crown your ef-
forts.
By one who understands to the full
est extent the meaning of that terrible
word, intemperdnce.

say through your columns In answer to
the charges which have been preferred
against us by the whisky sympathysers
