Maine State Temperance Alliance.

Inc undersigned unite in calling a meeting of the
friends of Temperance in Maine, to be held in
City Hall, Lewiston, "Wednesday (at z O'Clock,
y. n.y. and thursday, Feb. 9fst and 22nd /,
the object being the organization of a STATE TEN
fERANcE ALLIANCE in which shall be united all
the moral and religious elements Of society in an
active and well directed war against Intemperauce
Regarding Intemperance the destroyer of wealth,
character, health and happiness, and as the enemy
of the Republic and the Church of Christ, we call
upon the citizens of Maine, regardless of political
or religious affiliations to attend this meeting par
tieipate in its deliberations and then unite their
hands and hearts to crush out this great evil.
An amendment to our State Constitution will.
doubtless, soon be submitted to the people, and we
must prepare for the coming conflict It is a time
for counsel, for earnest prayer and united action
This meeting is not called in the interest of any
party set of men, will it be made the ms ru.
ment of any party; but forgetting everything that
divides US in other directions let US come together
as citizens anxious to advance the moral interests,
and preserve the good name of our State and Coun-
try, and let US organize for a campaign in which ev-
cry good citizen and Christian should unite.
The usual reduction of fares by The railroads may
be expected.
