Temperance Reform.
indianapolis Journal.


By request Of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, tho Rev. A..
Marine preached sermon last night
at Central Avenue M. e. church on
"the duty of the christian citizen as
it relates to the temperance reform. "
He took for his text Matthew xxi,
81: "Render unto Cesar the things
which are Cesar's, and unto God
the things that are Gods" which
he said plainly meant that man
must do his full duty as citizen and
as christian.
Coming to the subject Of the dis
course, and speaking of the duty Of
every citizen to ally himself for or
against the cause Of temperance
reform, he said:
Ignorance Of this issue is willful,
and therefore culpable, neutrality is
cowardice, stupidity is pititable. No
intelligent man can open his eyes to
the attitude and his ears to the
menace of this great organized whisky
foe without being convinced that he
is the greatest enemy of our christian
civilization. I claim that he is anti
American. He strikes at puritanism.
He sneers at christianity. He defes
law and public sentiment He would
subvert the ends of our government
by substituting license for law, and
Ibertinisp for liberty, under the
specious plea for personal liberty"
He is, in my Judgement TO test our
as it has never been
tried before. At this hour we con-
front foe that is entrenched in
every hamlet. town, and city Of this
republic; q foe that marshals to his
support ignorance, prejudice, pas
sion, lust, immense pecuniary re-
sources, high social Influences. He
is thoroughly organized and com.
pletely drilled He is naughty, in
solent, defiant, and satanic. Now
in the face of this foe what is duty =
Il seems 10 me that this il no time

occurs to me that the best way 10

is by graphing as brsvely and pstn-
otically with the foe Of 10 day -

A New Temptation to Intsnpsranee.

A fact worthy the consideration OF
parents and others to whom the care
Of children is committed is thus en-
phasized by the Independent re-
Gently:
'The young in recent years have
become exposed 10 new temptation
to intemperance through the use Of
confectionery. II is known, but not
as generally a. II should be, that wine

anti democratic tariff article.-ED
FREE PRESS.
BLANco, June Sd, 1884.
EDITOR FREE PRESS If you find
the following communication worthy
of q place in your columns please in
sert. Day is breaking upon the Sun
ny South, Capitalists and business
men are waking up to a sense OF
their interests, the spirit of diversi.
fed labor is moving upon the minds
of southern capitalists, manufactures
of various kinds are springing up all
over the south. Diversified industry
is o death knell to Democracy, well
distributed number of factories
throughout the south would silence
the free trade batteries of Democracy
forever; in few years more the great
waterfalls of our silvery streams will
send out the music of millions of
spindles, the products Of our farmers
will find rich market at their doors,
lands throughout the country will be
enhanced fifty per cent, wages OF all
kinds will be high, not pauper, goods
will be cheap on account of compe-
tition. Every factory built is a nail
driven into the vitals of Democracy.
Protect American industry by laying
a duty on imports, 80 adjusted as to
give her the ability to compete with
foreign pauper labor, and the day
is not distant when twenty millions
more spindles will be added to our
already thirty millions. Then the
working class can find employment
at remunerative prices, goods will be
cheap on account of competition, cot
ton planters, wool growers and hemp
raisers will have o market at their
doors. On the other hand, raise
the tariff and millions of sleeping
spindles in free trade England will
wake up and skip the ocean with
pauper labor, then American indus.
try will be thing of the past, mil
lions of people will be thrown out of
employment to become paupers and
beggars. Forbid that the American
people would ever suffer proud
America TO experience such a calami-
ty. No one can doubt but that it has
been the protective tariff that has
sustained and built up this nation
until she eclipses the nations OF the
earth. Contrast the difference be-
tween free trade England and Amer
ica, not only England but the nations
of the civilized world. II has been
said and cannot be successfully con-
tradicted, that the very trade reports
in our commercial papers, the dis
patches Of every day, announce the
fact that depression exists all over
the world, unparalleled, vastly greater
than with ms. The metal industries
of England are no better of Scores
of furnaces in Wales are blown out,
waiting customers for their iron The
silk industries Of free trade England

LXXII.

Here I quote an incident verbatim
as described by Geo. w. Kendalk
It was at Albuquerque that Isaw
a perfect specimen of female lowell
ness. The girl was poor, being
dressed only in chemise and coarse
wooden petticoat; yet there was an
air Of grace, a charm about her that
neither birth nor fortune can bestow.
She was standing upon mud wall,
the taper fingers of her right hand
supporting large pumpkin upon her
head, while her left was gracefully
resting upon her hip. Her dark,
full and lustrous eyes, overarched
with brows of pecilled regularity,
and fringed with lashes of long and
silken texture, beamed upon us full
of tenderness and pity, while an un-
hidden tear of sorrow at our misfor-
tunes was coursing down cheek of
the purest and richest olive. Her
beautifully curved lips, half opened
as if in pity and astonishment at a
scene so uncommon, disclosed teeth
of pearly, dazzling whiteness limo
cence and the best feelings of our
nature were playing in every Inca
ment of that lovely face, and ever
and anon as some of us more unfor-
tunate than the rest would limp,
halting by, again her tears would
gush from their fountains, and illum-
inc countenance of purity. If
Crystal tears from PHYS eye
Are the stars in heaven bigh,'
some of them fell that day from the
poor village girl, drawn from their
armament to tighten the sorrows of
those upon whom misfortune had laid
her heavy hand. She could not have
been more than fifteen; yet her loose
and flowing dress, but half conceal
ing bust of surprising beauty and
and 1oveliness, plainly disclosed that
she was just entering womanhood.
Her figure was faultless, and even the
chisel of Praxiteles himself never
modelled ankles of such pure and
classic elegance.
Gas the long and struggling line of
prisoners passed the spot upon which
this lovely form was standing, sore
and worn down by long marches, and
want of food and sleep, her rare
beauty drew the eyes Of all towards
her, and ordinations of wonder
were upon every lip. She understood
not our language, and in the artless
Of her nature, knew not
that her singular loveliness, COM
bined with her display of charms,
her unstudied yet graceful attitude
and scanty dress, were the theme OF
almost universal admiration.
'She beckoned to youth among
the prisoners, a German lad but little
older than herself, and presented him
the pumpkin with infinite delicacy
and grace; and as she did it. the e1-
pobrecito poor fellow was
heard gently falling from her lips in
tones of softest pity. The fairest
lowers are oftenest found in obscuri-
ty. 1 assert that the prettiest girl I

pm times, in constituting an award il has

10y nine-tenlhs OF the awards ever made,

The damage to the 81 acres was Irrigated,
bud We think properly SO, under the contract
Nj April LIST 1875. True the-3i acres were
planted July LIST 1877 but when the contract
pas made they were standing plant cane.
Clause Of the contract says: The party
the second part agrees 10 grind the Plant
ane Of the party of the first part mot to ex-
peed 200 acres in each year, in preference to
ny other care and to grind the Rattoons Of
aid party Of the first part in preference to

And, by clause one, the party Of the first
pan agrees TO plant not less than $50 acres
each year Of the contract. We think it may
fe larry sand tina. clause FIVE refers to the
Ecane standing when the contract was made.
for this reason and for the reasons given
by The Chlet Justice, We think the award ac-
corded with the submission.
II the question as to the 81 acres of cane
