MARTYR TO TEMPERANCE.
Several Speakers So Declare the
Murdered George G. HAGddeck OF
sioux City.
jackson Street NJ. E. church was crowded
last evening at the meeting held ia memory
of the Rev. George c.. Haddock, who was
recently murdered at Sioux City as result
of his efforts to enforce the prohibition
laws. The meeting was opened with sing
ing, followed by prayer and scripture lesson
by Dr.. Griswold. Addresses were delivered
by Edward Sealy, George E. Budd, John
Leslie. l.. S. Armstrong. Rev. G. F. Wells
and DR.. Robert Forbes. The speeches were
earnest in behalf of prohibition and treated
MIR. Haddock as martyr to the cause as
serting that he was murdered "by the
friends. minions and hirelings of the saloon"
Rev. Wells held that the murder was the
inevitable and legitimate result Of the alco-
holic liqnor traffic, and the fact that the
American people knew this, while scarcely
a man could swear To the murderer,
was the bitterest count in the indictment
against them. He held that the murder
was not probable but merely possible in the
reign of terror then existing in Sioux CITY.
Mr.. Forbes, in his address, expressed the
wish that 100 people in the audience would
pledge 81 each toward making up the 81, 900
reward offered by Rev. w. Whitfield. pre-
siding elder of the Sioux City district, for
the conviction of the murderer. He OBJ
tanned very liberal showing of hands.
Mr.. Wells said that a few weeks ago
when it was learned that the state fair
managers had advertised for bids for the
exclusive privilege of selling liquors on the
grounds, the Hamline Prohibition club ap-
pointed committee to wait on the man
ayers and protest against it, and also to in
quire into the legality of liquor selling on
the grounds. He said the committee had
several times tried to get a hearing before
the managers, but had not yet succeed ed
and he was informed that prominent
brewer was erecting building for the sale
of liquor there. He was not sure that any
thing could be done to prevent it, and did
not know as anything would be attempted.

Fred Carruth, who has made the Estelline
Bell famous with his witticisms, has disposed
of that bright little will for,
glory and a voluptuous salary in some metro
poitan sheet. Speaking of the Estelline Bell
calls to mind some of the difficulties under
which Dakota editors labored few years ago
in publishing their papers. The Bell was es-
tahlished before the town had a railroad, and
the following winter severe storms blocked
the roads so badly that the stages could not
get into the town. This state of things con-
tinued for several weeks and the editor of the
Bell ran out of paper But the paper must
come out, and he rustled around and found
few rolls OF house paper, which he used, and
the paper came out as usual Many copies of
this edition were kept as souvenirs.
