WEST VIRGINIA FREEMAN.
The Loom of Life.

All day, all night, can hear the jar.
Of the loom of life; and near and far
1t thrills, with its deep and mufi1ed sound,
AS, tireless, the wheels go round.
Busily, ceaselessiy, goes the loom,
In the light of day, and the midnight gloom.
And the wheels are turning, early and late,
And the wool is wound in the warp of fate.
Click, click, theresa thread of love woven
in; ft
Click, click! another Of wrong and sin,
What checkered thiag this life win be,
When we see it unroleed in eternityl
When shall this wowderful web be done?
In Thousand years, perhaps, or one;
Or Tomorrow! Who knoweth? Not thou,
nor 1;
But the wheels turn on, and the shuttles fly
All, sad-eyed wea~ers, the years are slow;
But each one is nearer the end, know;
And soon the last thread shall be woven in
God grant it beaove instead of sin.
Are we spinners of good in this life-veh
say?
Do we furnish the weaver thread each
day?
1t were better, o my friends to spin
A beautiful thread, than a thread of sin.

Whisky Did 1t.

Two of the handsomest and
brightest young men that have
grown up in the capital city of
Kentucky since the war were Fhos.
Crittenden, grandson of the great
and good John J. Crittenden, and
James Arnold, son of Rev. Isaac
Arnold. With physiques 1.-the and
sinewy as the thoroughbred horse
of the bluegrass region, with the
heritage of honored names and
wealth that was lavished upon
their schooling, these two young
men and bosom friends might
have climbed to any position of
homer among a people who love
to bestow hOnors upon robust men
of courage and culture. But Tom
Crittenden and Jim Arnold early
took to drink, in town that boasts
the manufacture of the finest
whisky in the world, and intro
duced the breezy aff1uence of from
tier dash into the very proper So
ciety of staid old village.
In word, they painted the town
a sunset red, and finally made it
too hot to hold them. Arnold
drlfted west and became the prince
of cowboys. Crittenden went to
Louisville and took leadership
among bar-room broilers. Arnold,
while driving cattle on one of the
western trails, in company with a
degenerate son of Lord Pagot, was
shot and killed by negro. Crit
tenden killed negro for testifying
against him at his misdemeanor
trial before a country magistrate,
and has just been sentenced to con-
finement in the Kentucky peniten-
tiary for three years. Both leave
behind them honorable fathers and
loving but heart-broken mothers
Arnold left a tenderer tie than that
of father or mother and a not less
tenacious. Whisky wrecked all
these ,lives-Cin. Mews Journal

Dr. Guyler ON High License.

DR.. Theodore L. Cuyler has pub
lished in the National Temperance
Adoooat6 very sensible letter on
the subject of high license, in
which he says:
We suppressionists need all the
help we can obtain. A concerted
opposition by true temperance
men to the imposition of higher
license fees would only ALLEVIATE
and embitter large element in
society that we ought to have with
US, and wiAl yet have with US if we,
practice alittle charity and GEM
mon sense. Good men can be Rei-
Their drageoned nor blackguarded
into cooperating with us. Our late
beloved president, VIM. E. Dodge,
always deplored this spirit Of re-
elimination. He often said to nee
in substance, II am for prohibi-
ton of the diam shops, but [ ana
willing TO work with anybody or
everybody who is honestly trying
to curtail their number If l can
not get all [ want, I'll get all l
can" He was q wise man, and we
miss his judicious counsels as well
as his princely iberality most
sorely.
Finally, we suppressionists must
turn all our guns upon the liquor
traffic and upon the drinking usa-
ges, and stop firing hot shot at
those who in their own way are
honestly opposing the accursed
traffic. The Lord Jesus Christ once
rebuked His disciple John for say
ing, "Master, we saw one casting
out devils in Thy Name, and he
followeth not rs; and we forbade
