keeping Temperance Out of the Political
Arena
BY BAKER.

Rev. W. F. Crafts tells us that the religious sect
in this country, known as "Dunkards," have
peculiar way of meeting in village. They come
down upon the place to the number of five, ten
and twenty thousand, and fill up the houses, barns
and all the buildings about, and hold their meet
ings until they get through. large number of
them thus assembled in Indiana. The fact was
cablcd across the Atlantic, and the announcement
was made in English newspapers as a matter of
news that seven thousand "Drunkards' had as
sembled in Indiana. The cable by mistake had
put in the letter 'r," and it is positive fact that
the London Telegraph, one of the most reliable
and ably edited newspapers in England, had an
editorial on the singular spectacle, as an illusra-
ton of American civilization.
Had the mistake been a fact the text or illustra-
ton would have been good one. But what shall
we say of the seventy times seven thousand, which
is no mistake, but an actual fact in this country.
On, when shall we awake to any adequate reaza-
ton of the magnitude of this overshadowing curse!
"Keep temperance out of the political arena us
it not surprising, yea MORE is it not amazing, that
Christian men can be found in this late day who
can utter, and other Christian men who can ap-
plaud, so strange sentiment? In the name of
perlsnnS numan'Cy We enCer our proUeSJ anu De-
speak your candid attention while we plead.
First.-We object on the ground that such a
cause has not worked well in the past. For six
thousand years intoxication has cursed The race;
and for six thousand years non political methods
have had their chance and made their efforts.
Through all these generations has the wall of woe
been heard with here and there victim saved,
but with the overlooking stream ever increasing in
volume through all the rolling years. If non
political methods are the methods to pursue, why
in these six thousand years have they failed to
check this current and give promise of ultimate re-
lief? Why would it not be better to accept these
methods and use them for all they are worth, but
supplement them with every possible added REIN
forcement?
Second.-Again, we object to keeping temper
ance out of politics on the ground that such
