Ny dear Sisters, Mrs. Lucy A. 'SwITzER,

tian Temperance Unions:
What hath God wrought The repeat
ed victories in your noble Territory read
like Heavens own fairy story. Never
since I dedicated my life to the home
cause of temperance have I seen SO much
transpiie for good in so brief space. The
Scientific Instruction bill adopted by your
Legislature without dissenting voice in
either house The Local Option bill, with
out dissenting voice in the lower house
and but three III the Council the efforts
to pass the high-lcenae bill defeated the
! attempt to repeal the Sabbath-law defeat
ed the attempt to relieve woman of Jury
service defeated, and the age OF consent
raised from IL to 16 by a unanimous vote I,
who that reads this record cam say that
| politics" and claw" ate not, potentially
at least, religions domains that benignant
power can enter? Then to think of man
like Governor Squire who in The face of n
teiegraphed petition of thirteen pages,
from the business OF Tacoma and the pit
eous pleadings of license mayors and liq-
uor's friends, boldly signed the Local Op-
tion bill when lie might have allowed il
to become law by default, and kept him.
self uncommitted What solid aalisfnc-
tion 1t is to have chief magistrate whom
you can honestly praise and sincerely trust
besides NIL this TO have had woman ns
earnest, true andgifted as Miss Narcissa
White with her invaluable experiences to
champion these measures, and n white
ribbon army led by tfrsty officers and
mighty both in deeds and prayer! These
are reasons for unbounded gratitude to God.
Permit ME, therefore, to suggest that yon
SUMMON the people of Washington, its
men and women, youths and inaldens, boys
and girls, Sho love and will defend the
right, to meet for praise and thanksgiving
to the Heavenly Father who has so signal
ly favored your yoting commonwealth with
succession of victories which, for their
value TO the public veal; have no parallel
in the annals bt a single session of any
Legislature since time began; and 1 wish
that 10 each member of the Council and
Lower House, TO the Governor, and Judge
Isaacs, TO whom belong the thanks of all
women for his noble work of raising "the
age OF consent;' might go an open letter
signed by the two presidents of our Terri
torial w. G. I. US, and by Narcissa
White, expressing to them our profound
gratitude for their protection vouchsafed
in law. Yours, with grateful heart to-
wards God and nan,
