Mrs. Zerelda q. Wallace, relict of ex'
Governor Wallace, of Indiana, and moth
er of Gen. Lew Wallace, or more proper
" speaking, mother of "Ben Hur," de-
livered powerful lecture at the Metho
dist church in this city Tuesday evening
He subject was prohibition and woman's
suffrage and the gifted woman brodght
out facts in an entirely new light to ma
ny present, and all were pleased with
her able and withal pleasing presenta
ton OF her subject. She denied that the
prohibitionists had pushed the temper
ance question into politics and asserted
that the whisky men themselves hac
done so, by passing resolutions declaring
that they would support the candidates
of no party who were not pledged to the
liquor traffic, and the temperance people
had nothing left them to do but to TAXI
up the gauntlet and fight for God anc
Home and Native Land. On the ques
ton of woman's suffrage, among othe
things, she protested that II some patri
otto Irishman should address us on the
subject of Home Rule for Ireland on
hearts would go out to the cause earnest
ly and speedily, and she appealed to TIT
gallant men of the United States to give
the woman at lest partnership in thu
Home Rule OF this fair land. Politics
she said would not degrade the womeI
but would elevate them. The addres
throughout was striking and learned
and although can not endorse the doc
trines advanced, should be glad to Civ
full synopsis of the speech, believing
it would be OF interest to your readers
but both time and space forbid.
