WHISKEY DROUGHT IN PLATTE
WILLIE.
Kven Ministers Refused the Drinks--Heart-
RendlDg Scenes Of Monday.

lProm Special Artist on the Spot
IL is doubtless well known throughout the
county that Plattevlle by very small ma
jority has refused to license the liquor traffic.
The saloons, however, have remained ia full
blast. Vain attempts have been made to
convict these dealers of illegal selling The
effort was put forth about week since. The
jury said mot guilty." At the regular tenn
perance meeting on Sunday it is alleged that
the Congregational minister referred to this
trial in terms casting serious reflection upon
the jury. The minister denies any such ut,
terances, but parties who heard him are
ready 20 swear that he made them. Be this
as it may bad blood was stirred up
The Anti-license party have said that the
difficulty in securing convictions was owing
to the fact that men of credibility could not
be induced TO buy drinks at saloon and
then "give away" the one of whom they
bought them. On Monday one of our attor-
neys said to some of the more active ones in
the above named party that they had better
selves and buy liquor and then you will have
satisfactory evidence" AT ter little "bul-
doing" of this kind a few of the anti>license
men became nerved up to the proper pitch
to undertake such an expedition. A bottle
was procured and one OF our merchants, a
professor in the Normal, and the Methodist
minister proceeded with solemn tread to one
of our saloons. BY this time the matter be-
came noised around, and quite crowd fol-
lowed at safe distance behind the immortal
three The saloon also had received word of
the enterprise, and when the party"got there
the cupboard was bare, FOR. in other words they
found the door of the saloon closed and they
were refused admission. With dry lips
downcast expression, and palpitating hearts,
the three Performers" Ietraced their steps.
As never before they recognized the truth of
the saying. "Between the cup and the lip,
there is many slip" The proceedings called
together large crowd on Main street and
for an hour or more a terrific battle of words
was fought. Both parties were well repre>
sented in the conflict There was charge
and countercharge. The streets "ran with
gore" When there came lull in the can.
nonading and the smoke lifted it was found
that each army
"Had marched up the hill
And then marched down again"
MORAL: How can congregations expect
sermons to be otherwise than dry when the
ministers themselves are refused the drinks ?
