THE CAUSES AND COST OF CRIMES

''The Saloon as the Source Of Crime; the
Remedy" was the subject selected by DR..
Sutherland at the Second Presbyterian
Church last evening, and it was treated in
a very thorough manner, about as follows:
The difference between crime, vice and sin
is: Crime is that which is punishable by hu-
man law; vice is that which should be avoided
as injurious to health sin is that which is hurt
full to self and others and exposes one to divine
wrath and punishment. The chief object for
us, therefore, is to investigate and remedy sin;
to trace out the cause and cure OF vice, and
for the legislator to provide for the detection,
punishment and prevention of crime.
Crime is largely due to the defects of govern
ment; but because there are sins, at the same
time it does not follow that the theologian
must take notice of and be interested in the
suppression Of crime. Crime is just sin and
its fruit. You cannot prevent all crime by law;
but ii can be largely prevented; as theory, all
crime could be prevented
A LOGICAL SEQUENCE.
To say it could not, would be to say that or
ganized society is a failure. The State has
tabled many sins and wees as crime by com
mon consent, and in many cases made drinking
of liquor crime, that is: an act endangering
citizens and depriving them of their rights
But those seeking temperance legislation in
sist that the same principle be applied to the
liquor traffic as to all other dangerous acts to
society, namely, that whatever leads to crime.
whatsoever is the cause of it is to be prohibited
and prevented as well as the crime itself We
have bee2. acting on this principle In other
things.
He went on further to show how the saloon
was the great source of crime: The connection
of death with filth Is not settled upon any
firmer basis than the relation of crime with the
saloon. Now, as sensible, practical people,
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO
about it, am myself in favor of any and all
methods that promise relief; but in the present
crisis of the State many usual complications of
method are absent
There is one definite thing before the peo-
ple-the amendment to the Constitution, which
prohibits those forms of drinking that are
sources of crime. am glad the people of this
State have had the wisdom to raise this Ques-
tion above the level of political issue"
The doctor SAID ne regretted that he had
come on the ground so late; but he thought 1t
a duty to himself to say that he was opposed to
the saloon, first. because it is the greatest
source of crime; second. it is one of the great
est hindrances to the spread of the gospel and
salvation of souls. He continued: III L
wanted to cure drunkard / would use the
gospel remedy. If L wanted to cure saloon
keeper-the man who makes drunkards-then
! would make a law to prevent him from en-
gaging in this business, or putting restraint
upon him so that he would find it more lucra-
tive to saw wood or shovel coal for living"

A Butler Minister Tells why People Should
Vote for Ii.
Rev. S. H. Nesbit, of Butler, preached
last evening in the Buena Vista Street M.
E. Church, Allegheny, on the Constitutional
amendment After referring to the issue as
it stands before the people of Pennsylvania,
he said that all voters should cast their
ballots in favor of prohibition, and cited six
points to support his claim why they
should do so.
The first, he said, was that if the amend,
ment passed it would relieve the State oil
the disgrace of licensing the liquor trat1c;
second, the present license system never pro-
tected society; third. license protection is
no protection to the home; fourth, pro-
hibition reduces crime and, in Consequence,
also reduces taxation ana the public bur
dens; fifth, because prohibition reduces
pauperism to its minimum, and, by doing
this consequently reduces taxation and the
public burdens; sixth, prohibition reduces
idiocy and insanity.

An East End Pastor Talks on the Brewers

DR.. J.W. Mckay, pastor of the East End
Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Wilson's
Hall, delivered an address last evening on
the subject, 'The Amendment Suffering for
Want of Hustling Chairmen." His re-
marks consisted chiefly in criticism of
the Brewers Association, and saying very
little about hustling chairmen. The
speeches made at the banquet were assailed.
He remarked that 1t was a diabolical out
rage for any member of the Brewers Asso-
citation to talk about their being benefactors
of mankind.
The condition of the various small towns
in Pennsylvania was taken up and talked
about. He then asked his hearers to take
more active part in the fight, and not stand
