PRINCIPLE.

Every good man and woman should
favor prohibition. The experience
of every right-minded adult person
teaches them that oil Intoxicating
liquors are curse to any country or
people. While it benefits one it in
jures thousands, and while it saves
one life it sacrifices hundreds. Every
good man must feel grieved when he
beholds the amount of misery and
want produced around him by drunk
enness. Every man knows tina pro-
hibition is the only remedy.
The principles and doctrines of
prohibition strictly carried out
will save an innumerable multi
tude of people from premature deaths,
make them vastly better people while
here, and help to fit them for bet
ter life beyond this one.
ECONOMY.
In view of our own interests and
general welfare we are forcibly struck
with the necessity of prohibition.
The farmer, manufacturer, merchant
and mechanic, and oil professional
men want sober partners, hands,
clerks, etc. If he does not get such
he is sure to suffer loss. And it is
a certain fact that the demand for
this class of men is becoming far
greater than the supply. Well what
is the remedy7 Only prohibition.
FINANCE.
The finances of every sober, upright
good man, loudly call for prohibition.
Railroad construction and the con-
of all public works and their
attendant accidents, with their delay
of time and loss of money, and many
times damages are many of them
caused by strong drink. Accidents
on trains, train robberies, etc, with
delays, loss of time, money and dam
ages, are many of them caused by
liquor. 1 need not try to sum up
here half the financial dread of drunk
enness, for all the monied men of the
world stand in dread of the class of
men made desperate Williams by the
use of alcoholic drinks. Every prin-
ciple of honor, and every financial in
terest on earth calls for prohibition.
MORALITY.
Does not every good man and wo-
man feel an interest in the moral de-
velopment of future generations, if
30, now is the time TO strike. The
progress of drunkenness is so
great that fear it will soon be too
late. Every known crime is fearfully |
on the increase. II you would sup
press murder, robbery, theft, pros
titution, hcentiousness, profanity and
obsconity now is the time TO strike.
n we cannot reap much Of the bene-
its Of our labor, let us work for the .
,hildren, and for future generations. .
We could not do more fer our child
-en and TO those who follow after us,
ve could not leave them a greater /
egacy than this. to break down. the
trOng arm Of drunkenness. and
,reAk up the sinks Of iniquity, and
cave them to enjoy peace plenty and
.obriety. They would bless Us
5od would bless Us 4

A short time ago we referred to the
violent dispute going on in Central Amer
ica as to the last resting-place of Column
bus, San Domingo and Cuba being the
claimants for this honor. A solemn con
clave of the representatives of various
governments recently nett San Domingo
to settle sthe matter: but now another
discussion has been raised, the question
this time being whether Columbus ever
set foot on the American continent at all.
1t was commonly believed, and is stated
in most modern histories, that the great
navigator in his fourth and last voyage
landed on the coast belonging to the
present republic of Honduras.
Three years ago Don Soto. the presi
dent of the republic. desired to com
memorate this great event by creating o
new administrative district at the place
and calling it Colon. But he determined
first to look into the original authorities
himself, and having done so found reason
to doubt the accuracy of the popular be-
lief on the subject. Having communi.
Gated his doubts to Don Milla, learned
Guatemalan, who has written a history OF
Central America, in which i, he reproduces
the usual statement. the latter re-eX.
amined all the documents of the time and
came to the conclusion that an error had
arisen through misrepresentation of a
single passagein an old chronicler, and
that Columbus really never landed on the
continent.

One of the greatest drawbacks to a con-
tinued residence in China, according to
some Americans, is the fact that there are
no side doors to the bar.rooms, a circum
stance which renders Sunday very dull
day. This is accounted for by the fact
that there are no bar-rooms in the
kingdom Excise commissioners are
at discount. and white aproned
young men with diamond pins
and black mustaches are un.
known. On almost every corner, how,
ever. there is "tea house. where

politics and help themselves to any loose

they throw dice or match pennies to see
who will pay for them, but each man

The future of the worlds progress
rests largely with the Improvement
of its motors. Steam has given vast
impetus-has made the electric heat
possible. The era of improved motors
upon which we are entering will give
us vastly improved methods, COM
pared with our present conditions.
We shall, improved rail-cars hare i'm
proved and cheaper freight transit, and
IN many ways vastly improved con-
ditions. Improved motors will give
us an improved and cheaper electric
light and electric heating and electric
powder. The field Is vast for i'm
provement in this direction.
The motor of labor Is money. Men
labor and live for money. Life is poor
without it. Disturb money and you
disturb the entire fabric of labor and
industry.
But the motor OF all motors is
labor. Labor coins and counts stores
and guards the money. Labor sets
10 motion the ponderous engine which
rusts 10 idleness until the act Of labor
sets the wheels In motion. Labor
and capital are the Siamese motors
of the age. They must work TO-
gether
Behind these-the life Of each--is
the great moral motor Of Right.
Without this and goodwill to man
the worlds forces jar. The rhythm
ceases, and ere long prosperity fails.
Right in education, right 10 concep-
tion, right in execution are the great
motors Of humanity.
