The board of trade committee who will
examine the FUSES leading to the disturb,
ance In our local wheat market, should be
especially careful to make thorough and
impartial investigation, as there are per
haps opposing influences at work against
US, of which we may be in ignorance. In
laying the matter before the proper au
thorities, the committee should make a
full, complete and yet concise statement of
the situation. Show by map the territory
tributary to each point; give the prices
paid; explain how discriminating rates
effect the trade, and show wherein partial
protection is an injury, and demonstrate,
as can easily be done, the necessity of our
being granted the favors extended to ad-
joining and competing points, and show
that under tho existing condition of affairs
the higher prices paid draw the wheat
away from here as we'll as prevent it going
to stations Oh another line of road We
believe the railroad company can be made
see the injustice of the present arrange
ment. ard as they have once signified their
willingness to lend assistance in this di.
rection, we can sec no reason why, if the
matter is placed fully and fairly before
them, they should not live up to their
promises. These suggestions are offered,
not with the intent to lead, dictate to or
advise the committee, but in the light Of
past experience, to aid them in making as
strong case as possible. as they must ex
pect to meet argument with argument and
facts with facts.

PROHIBITION,

The lectures delivered by DR.. N j. Ca
dieux on Sunday and Monday evenings,
under the auspices of the Womens' Chris
tian Temperance Union of Morris. were
largely attended and were in every way
worthy of the great and noble cause of
temperance, and creditable Indeed to the
learned and accomplished speaker.
On Sunday evening the discourse was in
refutation of the unwarrantable, improper
and i'll reality blasphemous attempts made
by some to uphold the use of Intoxicating
liquors as being authorized and counte.
nanced by the divine word. 1t was also
directed against the position of many who
are apathetie and Indifferent to the vital i'm
portance OF the work and to their duty as
christians. The question was dealt with
in manner which in many respects was
new and novel, and hence interesting, es
pecially when supported by forcible, iogi-
cal and concise argument. 1t was first
shown that the derivation of the word
wine gave it a meaning entirely differen!
from its general acceptance at this time,
and hence the word as it appeared in the
bible was in 10 sense the same as now
used. Further than this it was shown
that while the bible wine was the pure
unfermented juice of the fruit of the grape
vine, yet the use of wine when red"
was forbidden. 1t was held
that God could not be God if the
language of the holy word could be con.
strued in any other sense than that given,
as it would be in direct opposition to the
teaching of the holy word. Christians
and all interested in the cause were urged
to not only practise temperance in all
things, but to be active and determined
workers in the cause of prohibition, it be
ing argued that this was the only means of
striking q fatal blow at the roots of the
vice of intemperance. After showing the
villainous and deadly authorizations used in
the modern imported" liquors, the speak
er closed with the prediction that the day
was not far distant when prohibitory
law, similar to that now in force in Kansas,
would be submitted to the temperance PEG
pie of this state for their endorsement.
The attendance on Monday evening was,
while large, yet considerably smaller than
on the previous evening. The lecture was
in many points fully as interesting as the
first, but it was rather tedious by not being
as connected or 81 clear. The argument
against the generally accepted theory Of
the stimulating properties of alcoholic IL
quors, was certainly convincing, as aside
from the chemical tests, the scientific
points as explained and illustrated were
sustained and endorsed by many and CO.
pious extracts compiled from the works OF
the leading physicians and scientists Of
the age. There is but one criticism to OF.
fer In regard to the lectures, and that is,
thatfor scientific efforts they are rather too
disconnected for comprehension by the
Morris tribune., 1881-12-22

The Reporter thinks that the Browns
Valley wheat is superior to Morris wheat,
and hence accounts for the slight difference
in price. Well this may be the case, but
we had never heard of it. No, the fact of
the whole matter is this: Morris need ex-
pect no favors from the powers that be,
as she has seen fit to encourage competi-
ton which will work against the pocket
interests of the present corporations who
control this territory, and hence while We
may grumble at the gross injustice of our
treatment We can only grin and bear 1t
until such time as new order of things
are inaugurated by the completion of the
Little Falls g. Dakota railroad. Then the
shoe will be on the other foot; and We can
predict from existing feeling that there
will be decidedly sultry but very healthy
time in this vicinity. The Reporter very
naturally feels elated, and gives vent to
Its feeling in al editorial crow. and We
must confess that were we, through dis
elimination in freight rates, able to outbid
our neighbors, We would hoop er up just
as Justify.
