W. G. T. U.
Declaration Of Principle and Plan Of
Work for North idaho.
Yours earnestly,

We believe that the homes Of this ma
ton should be defended from its saloons
by personal influence and pure laws. We
believe that the incorporate habits of our
people can be cured by an appeal to the
intellect through argument, 10 the heart
through sympathy, and to the conscience
through the benignant motives of reli-
gion, but that the manufacture of, and
traffic in intoxicants and narcotics can
only be prevented by the strong arm of
the law. We therefore declare the prin-
ciples on which our work is based to be
the following
l. Free and voluntary total abstinence
to the individual
2 Legal prohibition of the traffic.
To carry these principles into practice,
wo propose to organize W. G. 7. U. in
every community Of Northern Idaho,
where it is possible; which shall have as
it's especial work the following depart
, ments each to be under the care Of an
earnest, intelligent lady, superintendent.
/. Heredity and Hygiene.
2. Scientific Instruction.
f, 3. Brands of Hope.
4. Sunday School Work.
5. Influencing the Press.
6. Circulating Temperance Literature
| 7. Influencing synods, medical and ed
ucational conventions, etc.
8. Securing subscribers to our Union
Signal.
8. Holding public meetings.
10. Circulating petitions.
BY carefully carrying out the forego
ing lines of work through systematica
educational methods, under the guidanc.
of the national w. G. 7. U. We hop,
with Gods blessing, to help lift Northern
Idaho out of the lethargy, and into or
ganized action against the greatest foe o
"God and Home and Native Land" w
make no warfare upon any individual
but against customs that should be abso

the good will, as well as the good word
and work Of all good people and pray 70

WHEN Mr.. Conkling made his speech
lauding Grant to the Saturday Night club,
he took the initiatory to bring that person
before the public in another third term
movement. Conkling's performance has
received nothing but derision at the hands
of the whole public, which is we'll depicted
by the last number of Puck, which has the
great Roscoe in the role of ballad singer,
using for the song Conkling's remark that
the failure to nominate Grant at Chicago
cost the country twenty years of progress.
Another step in the scheme of Grant res
toration was to secure his election as pres
ident of the Society of the Army of the
Potomac. This nice little dodge failed. as
Grant was defeated for that honor igno-
miniously. The people of this country
have unanimously decided to knock the
Grant third-term spook On the head as
often as it appears, and will not weary of
the diversion though the spook has as
many lives as a wailing feline.

TIE YOUNG PEOPLES MEETING
Preceding the general service was crowd
ed, and salutatious and greetings from the
younger churches to Plymouth were very
hearty and helpful.
The general union service drew out an
audience filing the church. The opening
piece, the Jubilate, fitly introduced the
exercises, when the opening address was
given by Rev. Mr.. Morley, of Park church,
who spoke briefly and impressively on the
compensations to the heart and home of
the church, and the fact that the latter
was worth far more than it cost US.
Robert West followed with ringing,
inspiriting address Oh the signs of relig-
1ous progress, and the proofs that Chris
tlanity is advancing, and the churches
doing better work and producing better
and better results. His hearty congratu-
lations to Plymouth were well received by
his audience.
The meeting was an exceedingly inter
estlng and bracing one. Tonight the
social reunion and public services fitly
consummates the very enjoyable and IN
structive quarter centennial celebration.

The Temperance Reform club held its
usual Sunday meeting last evening in
Harrison hall, and it was numerously at
tended, every seat being occupied. The
Rev. Satterlee spoke at some length in his
vigorous, and telling manner and urged
his hearers most impressively to labor in
the temperance cause. He described in
vivid language what a noble creature man
is, even when fallen brother, though then
degraded and debased by vile liquor, and
pleaded with the audience to lift him up,
to reclaim him and initiate the Savior in
their solicitude for the poor sinner and
victim of intemperance.
He then introduced Mrs. Brown, of
Michigan, who is staying in the city dur
ing the summer, and the lady at once pro-
duced favorable impression by her earn
estness and the able way in which she
handled the hackneyed subject of drunken
ness. She commenced by saying that
alcohol was the same here as in her native
Michigan, that the ravages of king alcohol
were perceptible, more or less throughout
the land that men in every position and
station of life, the lawyer, the legislator,
the poet, the editor and often the minister
of the gospel fell into the depths of degra-
dation and crime from the allurements OF
alcoholic stimulants.

eloquently on the sufferings
brought upon woman, because of the in
temperance of man; that the poor crea-
lures were often clad in ragged garments,
hungry and heart broken in consequences
of husbands spending their hard earnings
to support saloon keepers. She portrayed
the evils of drink and said intemperance
stops the channels ofEsalvation moro than
all other evils combined. She referred to
two young men who left their rural homes,
went to Chicago and perambulated that
city to see the sights, and of course, drank
vile whisky to sharpen their observing
powers and finally wound up by commit
ting murder for which they were hanged.
She thought the men who sold the LIQUOR 10
tnese poor victims were responsible and
also the voters of the city who elect Off
GERS that tolerate the liquor business and
make it legitimate, She thought it ex-
tremely inconsistent to have laws enacted
making liquor selling lawful, and other
laws made to punish the criminals created
through drink. "And why" she asked. ''do
we sanction the destruction of human bod
les and souls?' Simply for revenue. But
for every dollar received from that source

the crusaders of old who went to the Holy
land to protect the temple from the raw
ages of the Saracen, ard the modern woman
crusaders who devote their time to the res
cue of their fellow creatures from the evils
of rum drinking. She concluded her ad-
dress by exhorting her hearers to be
staunch, to be true, to be earnest. There
invited than to join the Prohibition army
in redeeming the fallen and making them
sober citizens and good and useful mem
bers of society, instead of being, as they
are, curse and an incumbrance to the
community in which they live. Let us
march on to liberty, and liberty is success.
The lady was frequently applauded and
will be welcomed to speak often during
her stay in the city.
Rev. Satterlee announced that the fif-
teenth district lodge of Good Templars will
meet tomorrow in this city at 10 a. N.
and that the ladies' club would have
strawberry festival in the evening to which
every one is welcome, and no admittance
fee charged. After further announcing
that Mrs. Carmichael, an earnest temper
ance worker, had died, and would be buried
this morning at 1920 a. M, from the Sec

meeting sang temperance hymn and ad-
journed.

The secretary of the treasury has at las
come to see what has been apparent to the
country for long time, that there ought
to be an immediate and considerable re
duction of the internal revenue districts
His proposition is to abolish twenty-foul
of the districts, leaving ninety-two, where
as now there are one hundred and twenty
six. THERE'S no reason whatever that car
be urged against much larger reduction
than is proposed. AS the internal revenue
system is at present managed the duties
OF these sinecure ofice-holders are chiefly
political, and the less there are of them fol-
that purpose the better. Any reduction
of this costly force of tax-eaters will be
appreciated, but in so good a work it is

WHAT IT ALL AMOUNTED TO,
Mile NIiSka To-Nipht.

The beautiful and attractive young Rus
sian actress, Mile Miska, will make her
first appearance at the Opera house this
evening IN her highly interesting play of
"Leonie, the Grown Child.' An eastern ex-
change in speaking of the performance,
says:
The plot of the play is founded on in
trigues and Nihilistic schemes in official
circles in Warsaw with, of course, a beau
tiful woman in it, who is falsely accused
of a murder in order to shield the real
murderer, who is the minister of police
himself and Nihilist. The young girl,
who is a Crown Child, is sent to Siberia.
but the plotters and Nihilists who sent her
there by false swearing soon got their
deserts through loyalty of he Duke of
Warsaw and the shrewdness of an Ameri-
can drummer travelling for button fac
tory in Philadelphia, and are themselves
sent to Siberia, while Leonie's innocence
is established, her bans removed, and she
becomes countess and is finally betroth-
edito the Duke of Warsaw, the hero of the
plot, Mile Miska plays in an excellent
manner her elocution and her gestures
being perfect. She puts fair force into
her climaxes. but in her pathetic scenes
she excels. Mr.. Bergman made fine i'm
personation of the Duke of Warsaw. The
rest of the company was very good in the
main and the performance was well re-
ceived, Mile Miska and Mr.. Bergman
being called before the curtain at the close
of every act.

The angel of reconciliation does not
seem to be lowering over the Republican
camp to any visible extent. The har-
mony that exists among these unrepent-
ant sinners is fable, and while the states
men wrangle and rend each other, the
party organs, with shifting sarcasm, por.
tray this situation as one of peace and
good will. Those who have to answer the
roll call of hades may understand this as
peace, but mortals do not.
