Fighting Ahead.

Under the above caption the Public
Leader, of Detroit gives warning to the
liquor trade and voices the growing demand
for prohibition as follows:
ut is expected that there will be hot
fight in Iowa this fall. The liquor trade is
being destroyed in all parts of the State and
the dealers themselves subjected to the
most tyrannical treatment by the prohibit
tory legislation adopted by the State. The
brewers have met recently and passed reso-
buttons, one of which provides that the GEN.
tIal committee issue call to the people
showing forth the condition in which the
brewing business is under existing laws,
and urging the people to vote only for cand-
dates for the Legislature of liberal ideas. 1t
is really a lamentable fact that prohibition
is making deeper and deeper inroads into
the liquor interests every year, and that
state or territory is happy one indeed
that is entirely free frc m the blighting in
fluences Of prohibition. At first slow, 81
lent and insidious, the prohibition move
ment has, like an avalanche, gathered
strength as it rolls onward, and has now
attained formidable and in many cases ir-
resistible proportions. The liquor dealers
generally awaken to true sense of their
danger after the damage has been done,
and can do little then but repine after their
wasted opportunities and bitterly curse
their own stupidity in neglecting to fortify
their position while yet they had time.
If the saloon-keepers of Chicago, for
instance, had been told five years ago that
they would now have to pay $500 year
for the privilege of continuing the bust
ness they would have laughed in man $
face and called him fool. We are strong
and our influence is too great, they would
probably have explained, but they now
have to pay the $500 all the same from
which neither their strength nor their in
iuence could free them. In Iowa the ex-
cuses were made but the story was repeated
with irresistible exactness. 1t is the same
all over. Liquor dealers will not look
this matter square in the face. They
dodge it and shirk it, and look around and
about it, and the final outcome is that one
bright morning they awaken to find them
selves legislated ont of the business.

Rev N. J. Wright, pastor of the NJ. h.
church here, was asked last Sunday to an
nource from his pulpit the Temperance
lecture of Mrs J. T. Ellis, Secretary of the
w. c. r. L. of New Jersey, in the Friends
meeting house, on Tuesday night. The
notice was delivered to him by one of the
members of his church for the ladies, duly
signed by the secretary of our local union,
but he refused to make the announcement.
What quarrel the Rev. gentleman can
possibly have with the w. c. T. I. or
with Mrs Ellis who is member of the
Methodist Episcopal church. we are at a
loss to know. We have an idea, however,
that both Mrs. Ellis and the W. G. T. L.
will survive the refusal.

SPECIAL TO THE LADIES.

If those who need and have
occasion to buy materials for
white dresses, such as India
Lawns, Victoria Lawns, Mulls
and Nainsooks, knew how much
lower our prices were than 9th
ers hereabout, we would sell a
larger share of these goods this
season than ever before. There
is but little doubt that you can
buy as much of us for $500 as
elsewhere for $3.50, or as much
for S4.oo as elsewhere for $500.
Get samples of the very lowest
prices you can find, bring them
along and let us match them.
You can then make a compari-
son of price and quality.

The Rev. Sam Jones. the eccentric
Southern revivalist, who, in his peculiar
and emphatic way, strikes some hard
blows against the liquor-trafic, recently
stirred up much excitement ON the sub
ject in Nashville, Tenn, by his denun-
citation of liquor-selling church members
His statements We're questioned, and the
Nashville american deputed representa-
tive to investigate the matter, who sub
sequently stated that there are in that
city thirty-sx licensed wholesale liquor
houses and eiglIty-one persons in the bust
ness, sixty-cight of whom are church men,
beers, divided as follows: Nineteen Catho-
lies, fifteen Methodists, twelve Presby-
terians, seven Episcopalians, six Chris
tians' (Campbellites) six Baptists. and three
Cumberland Presbyterians
This is bad exhibit, if true, for Nash
vile. Should a careful census be made in
other cities, South and North, it is to be
feared that there would still be found
many delinquents. But there was time,
not SO very long ago, when liquor-selling
and church membership We're not gener.
ally deemed incompatible. That such a
fact as the Rev. ''Sam' Jones has caused
to be brought to the light in Nashville
now shocks the moral sense of the general
public is in itself gratifying Indication OF
the growth and progress of an enlightened
temperance public opinion. Every church
should see that its own borders are clear
of all completely with the evil traffic, and
then do all possible to Danish it speedily
from the community at large.-National

been engaged with Queen & Co.,
the well-known opticians, of
Philadelphia, and gained a prac-
teal experience in all that per
tains to the proper adjustment
of spectacles and eye glasses, |
shall give special attention to
that branch of our business.
The time has passed when
people will be satisfied with
glasses fitted in a sort of hap
hazard manner. They have
learned that when there is any
defect in that sensitive organ.
the eye, that it should be ex-
anined with the utmost care,
and if glasses are necessary they
should be fitted by a skilled OPP
tician. We are prepared to
meet this demand by giving Gus
toners in every case a thorough
test of each eye on the latest
scientific principles, and give
such glasses that will best cor
rect the optical defect.
If upon examination we find it
best for the customer to see a
physician. we / always advise
them to do sd, as there are
many complicated cases that re
quire attention Of an oculist.
We take great care that the
frames, as well as. the glasses, of
spectacles and Eyeglasses fit
properly, as it isl impossible to
get the best results from poor
ly fitted spectacle frame.
The latest Improvement in
style and form of spectacles and
eyeglasses will be added, giving
customers every advantage that
could be obtained in New York
or Philadelphia, Prescriptions
for glasses carefully attended
to.
We have lately added new
machinery for the grinding of
spherical and cylindrical lenses,
and hereafter will be enabled to
do our own work, and much
sooner than if we had TO send it

lower prices than heretofore
charged for such work.

THE INQUIRY AND REPLY.

THE INQUIRY.
The time has come for action-let us grapple
with the wrong,
And slit the matter boldly, for the light OF
truth is strong.
Full sixty thousand souls are slain within each
passing year;
The victims of licensed bane-the sale of rum
and beer.
The nation groans beneath Its load of poverty
and crime,
And warns us of the fearful scourge that blots
the page of time.
The past looms up before us with its horrors
dark and grim
4 gloomy list of murders flowing The WINE
cups rim.
0, noted politician. tell where this fiend of
rum,
Gets all his strength to murder-then TO the
rescue come.
Whence come this catalogue of woe-this list
of thousands slain;
Point out the source for mercy's sake, and
wipe away the stain.
Ye senators and judges, men OF learning,
wealth and power,
What think ye of the question? It's the ques-
ton of the hour.
whence comes the host of drunkards daily
rushing through the land:
Who puts temptation in their way that they
cannot withstand?
O, ministers and people! Ye who worship God
most high,
How is it that your fellows in snch helpless
slumbers lie?
How is it that your members fall away from
God and grace,
And dying, I'LL the drunkard's grave MS their
last resting place:
o, citizens of you we ask the question, clear
and plain:
Whence comes the nations drunkards? what
will remove the stain?
How can the evil thing be tracked directly to
its lair?
Tell us, and fearessly Wen face the crnel
monster there.
THE REPLY.
The politician bows his head tongue-tied is
he, and dumb:
For he supports party ruled by lager beer
and rum;
While senators and Judges overlook the potent
cause,
And talk of fines and prisons for the breach of
Shall we look calmly on and see the drunken
thousands die,
While Bacchus lifts his guilty head and rcars
his temples high:
Shall we with mournful voice, deplore the
drunkenness and sin?
Then join the drunkard makers each election
they would win.
II selling rum is sinful. then IN the same de
gree,
The man who authorizes it responsible must
be-
For he who votes for license Though the tenn
perance pledge he's signed),
Stands for Il drunkard- maker and a traitor to
mankind.
And as a drunkart- maker let him everywhere
be known,
Despite his grand position or the acres he may
own,
Let drunkard's wives behold in him an object
of their scorn,
And hiss, with outstretched finger, should he
pass their home forlorn
The church admitting rum voters should take
rum sellers in
The guilt of each is equal, if you analyze the
sin;
For we shall never see, my friends, the mon
ster loose his sway,
Until our fellows learn to vote as we have
heard them pray.

The liquor question in Kansas has become
a matter of bullets as well as of ballots,
thanks to the frenzied incendiary talk Of
such publications as The Free Lance. The
LIQUOR men there have shown spirit OF
border ruffianism which recalls the earlier
days of tie settlement Of the State, when
freedom from the shackles ofchattel slavery
was in issue as is now the question OF
freedom from the rum power. If fight it
must be the same thing can be done over
again by men no less conscientious and
courageous than the first settlers. Camden
