The stato Temperance Convention.


The state Temperance Convention
At the State Temperance Convention
held at Columbus few days since, the
following resolutions were adopted;
ResOlUed, That the time has come for
a more perfect union amongall the true
friends Of temperance, and this conven-
tion expresses the earnest hope that,
without regard to personal opinion or
party affiliations, all such friends will
earnestly and harmoniOusly cooperate
In energetic effort against a common
foe, and for the general good.
ResOlved, That every community pos
sesses the unquestiOnable right to pro-
teot itself against the perils and evils
Of the traffic In intoxicating drinks, by
such action within the limits of con-
stltutional law as the majority of its
qualified citizens shall determine upon,
and that this principle Is the basis upon
which every political party makes its
appeal to the people, underlying, as it
does, the very foundations of republi-
can government.
ReSol0ed, That this convention re-
spectfully, and with great earnestness
and emphasis, asks the present Legls-
lature Of our State to enact local Op-
tl0n anti-liquor law, with honest and
evident intention that such law shall
be practically effective in suppresslng
the drink traffic, and enable any COM
munity adopting it, according to the
legal provision, eifectually to protect it's
citizens against the evils which such
traffic Is known to produce.
RESOLVED, That inasmuch as woman
Is the greatest sufferer from the liquor
traffic, 1t Ia the opinion Of this COnVen-
tlOn that she should be permitted to ex-
press her wish on this question, Of so
vital Interest to all, and that she can
make such expression without any as
sumption Of the right or expedienOy Of
female suffrage in regard to general
political questions, and without any
violation Of the Constitution.
ResolUed, Believing In the urgent ne
cessity and eminent equity OF such
law as the foregoing resolutions call for,
and trusting, as we most sincerely do,
In the intelligence and correct moral
sense Of the members of the present
General Assembly, 10 secure the pass
age Of such law at its present session,
we feel 1t incumbent upon us 10 state Ia
the most respectful way, as an indica-
ton Of the earnestness Of our purpose,
that should this General Assembly fail |
10 enact any efficient local option anti. |
liquor law, profoundly regrettlng such !
failure, we will In the future use our
votes In support Of only such oandi- |
dates as by their established character
and known temperance principles give |
entire satisfaction that they will be un-
loyal TO such temperance
legislation as we herein demand, and |

Religious Position.

EDlToRs HERALD; Since the NOM
inati0n Of James A. Garfield to the
presidency, there has been n general
interest expressed in the church Of
which he is IA member. Many attempts
have been made to set forth the faith
and practice of the people calling them
selves Disciples of Christ. Some of
these have been quite amusing, Some
too partizan to be worthy of respect.
Many however have been fair and can
did statements of christian doctrine.
The fact that President Garfield has
from child been identified with the
Disciples, and through a long public
life has maintained his fidelity to the
church, has resulted in at least magni-
flying our plea and making 1t honOra-
BILE. feel that it Is due to the public
to give them the opportunity to know
more of the people and their religious
position. lnasmuch as many have ta-
ken In hand to set forth declaration
of those things which are most surely
believed among us, 1t seems good to me
also to write few brief papers to aid
In what ! regard as good work.
In these papers shall not attact the
religious standing of others, or even in
stitute defense of our own. | shall
aim to state facts plainly and kindly.
If 1t shall appear in the course of these
papers that we differ from our religious
presume that it will also
appear that they differ just as much
from US. 1t viii be seen also that we
hold many things In common with the
popular churches Of the day, while in
some things we disagree with them all.
In some things we agree with some aud
differ with others. One thing that has
done much tOpOpularize this movement
is that the plea we make is for return !
to Apostolic faith and practice. We
discaed everything claiming authority |
that Is not as old as the New Testiment. |
