Our friend Eugenus Barb, of
Monongalia county, writing of a
recent meeting of the Law and
Order and Temperance Association
of that county, held at Wadestown,
says: H.
1.-THE meeting was addressed by
Revs, Eichelberger and Clark, Dr.
Shriver, Mr.. S. L, White and 9TH
ers, after which an opportunity
was given for all who were ready
at all times to stand up for the
Temperance cause, to join the So
ciety. Thirty,fve names were
promptly enrolled by the Secreta-
ry."
Bro Barb adds, "Now why can't
DR.. Warner come over and help
us?"
True enough; but while you
have such strong helpers at home,
DR.. Warner is busy helping weaker
folks. However we are sure the
Doctor will want to visit Mononga-
liza soon again.

ED. FREEMAN: Your paper
comes to our home as welcome
visitor. I have just finished read
ing this weeks paper, and it is
truly refreshing to read about the
good work going on all around
us. In looking over the lists, l see
the names of so many noble women
who are working so arduously for
God, home and native land, who
are striving to put down the curse
that is destroying our country, I
feel that | want to do something,
if ever SO little. If it's only to let
them know through your valuable
paper how much we appreciate
these labors in behalf of temper
ance. 1t is not alone at the door
OF the saloon that this warfare
must be carried on, but the COM
mon enemy must be met and con-
quered on every hand: in family
circles,in our daily gatherings. We
hear and read about the glorious
work that is going on around US,
but it seems that the people have
not been stirred up here yet to a
sense Of their duty. ! think it is
time. 1t can't be that this is
God forsaken corner. If SO, [ want
to be getting to better place. We
have some good temperance men
here, if they would only arouse from
their lethargy and go to work in
the right way to put down our
greatest enemy. | don't see how
they can sit with folded hands
when they see daily our young
men staggering on the streets, who
ought to become our future respec-
table citizens and successful bust
ness men. The FREEMAN has done
much good and may it ever meet
with success, is the prayer of its
friends in Jackson county.
Yours for Temperance,

New Haven Whisky Again.

ED. FREEMAN The 4th was ap
propriately observed by the Sun
day Schools, Grand Army, and cit
liens OF New Haven and Syracuse
Excellent order was maintained
throughout. The G. A. R. Post o.
this place had charge Of the entire
program, which consisted Of vocal
and instrumental music, and q
number Of speeches.
Old Bacchus with his dupes was
represented there on the occasion
His disgusting, Shiny trail is ev-
erywhere to be seen. The people
can not have social, or religious
gathering without being annoyed
by his hateful presence.
Three young men, one of whom
belongs here, made ehameful and
sad spectacles Of themselves,
A fellow who was refused the
privilege of putting up platform
on the grounds for one Of those low
dances, backed by bad whisky, was
determined not to be thwarted in
his evil purpose to ruin strangers,
as well as our boys and girls, and
so erected a platform in the very
center of our town. All night Of
the 4th and 5th decent people
had to put up with this nuisance
in their midst.
The slain by Alcohol were many,
while none can estimate the wreck
of character and souls, brough t
about by this dance o. death.
We rise and ask you, Justices Of
the Peace, to explain why such an
outrage can be perpetrated in Il
civil community, and the people
have no redress? We are no law
yer, nor the son or daughter of one,
but we feel sure that if our Justices
had done their whole duty, they
could have abated this disgraceful
affair, as public nuisance,
Decent, virtuous people are just
ly indignant. All day on Satur-
day and Sunday there were men
and boys to be seen lying drunk
here and yonder. The laws are
pretty strict over in Ohio, and are
better executed, hence lot of lewd
fellows from Syracuse were here to
join in the drunken debauch.
To the chagrin of our better peo-
pile, and the shame of the churches,
members of the different denomina-
tions were seen lettering about the
platform, and some joining in the
bacchanalian dance to their own
eternal disgrace.
He'll cannot present a darker
picture than that of women and
men thus betraying their Lord
and Master.
But what is it that whisky does
not lead to? To answer this in

recipes for strawberry shortcake:
One pint sifted flour, one-haif tea

times: %One-fourth cup butter, one cup
sweet or sour milk or cold water. Rub
/ the butter, or melt the butter and
add it hot with the milk, gradually
mixing and cutting with a knife, and
use just enough to make it Of light,
spopgy consistency. Either bake on
a griddle or in the wen. When
baked, tear open and spread each halt
Of the cakes with softened butter.
Put halt of the cakes on a hot plate.
Mash a PITT of strawberries, sweeten
to taste, put a large spoonful on each
cake; then put another layer Ut cakes
and whole berries, we'll sugared. Eat
with cream.
