Depend upon it, there are but few
who take in the tremendous significance
Of this gathering army of temperance
fanatics. l have never belonged to their
advance guard; have never voted with
their political party. But more and more
study their movements, and hold myself
in friendly attitude toward their meas.
ures, and, know not how soon | may ioin
them. To my thought. hitherto, the in
crease of intelligence, the enlargement of
Christian influences in the community,
and such remedial measures as local option
laws and high license, have been the de-
s1rable means to use. Local option has
been effective in extirpating saloons from
townships and small towns High license
has, firmly believe, restricted the num-
Der OF places of traffic and reduced
the consumption of liquor. With an
untagging interest l watch the
current of opinion and the evi.
dence as it comes in from Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Nebraska
do believe local option and high license
have effected much in those common
wealths. But whether they would be
worth anything, whether anything they
have achieved would have been accom-
pushed had not these fanatically extreme
Prohibitionists been firing away with all
their forces, do not know. Frankly, it
looks to me doubtful if anything would
have been done, either in the way of local
option or high license. if there had been
no uprising of these irreconcilable foes of
the bottle. viii they become the admin
istration party and elect a president? ]
know not and care not. But that they
will overturn present organizations, and

Republican liquor legislation is being

local option law. under which thirty six
counties had voted to outlaw the LIQUOR

the supreme court, in the case brought up
to test the constitutionality of that sec

Few Conundrums.
Who had turkey stuffed with oysters,
and all the ''fixins," Christmas day, you
or the man who sold you beer or whisky?
Who has the fat of the land, all that
money can buy, you Or the saloon keeperS
Who keeps horse and takes his wife
and children out riding, you or the man
who takes your money for drink?
Who wears good clothes. You or the sa-
loon keeper
Whose children are dressed nicely, and
have all that children want to make life
comfortable, yours or the saloon keeper's9
Who eats stale bread because It is
cheap? Who buys cheap meat, buys
cheap bones, and everything that is lit
tie poor because it is cheap Is it sa-

When you are hauled up before the
police court for being drunk and disorder
ly, whom does the judge smile upon, bow
to, and treat with Difference, you or the
man who jingles your weekly wages in his
trousers pockets?
Who pays your fine, the man who has
your money or your broken hearted wife,
who has earned a few extra dollars by
washing? .
What good has come to you from drink
ing?
Has it made you better man?
Has it made you better father?
Does your family love you because you
drink?
Do your neighbors show you moro re-
spect?
Are the men who get your money friends
to whom you can turn in time of need?
Is your head clearer. your soul purer,
your intellect brighter, your hand steadier,
your pocket fuller, your home happier
when you drink beer OF whisky?
These are few points, of hundreds, for
your consideration. Catholic Temperance
