A Specimen Letter Receivedby Mrs.
Harrison About a False Statement.

WASHINGTON, Special-Mrs. Harrison is
deluged with letters about that historical
whisky punch which she did not give to the
Pan American delegates a couple of months
ago, but which many temperance fanatics
are bound to believe she did A specimen
letter recently received by Mrs. Harrison
runs like this:
Can it be possible that the contents of this
slip of paper is true. l cut it out of little
paper named the Journal / could not
bring myself to think it is true. But if it is
then, oh, Mrs. Harrison, stop and think of
what an awful mistake you have made by
putting the bottle to your neighbor's
mouth just to think that you with your
honored husband were placed at the head
of our nation; for what purpose? Was it,
oh, was it to deal out death and damnation
to your fellow beings, who, with yourself,
were created in the image of God? Alas,
feel as if the name of Harrison is polluted.
l had dear brother of that name who
would have died for the cause of temper
ance. | am glad he is not alive to know
that such an awful, disgraceiul act took
place in the executive mansion. Look back
at the lovely example which Mrs. Hayes
left you, and in the name of God, who has
said 'Be ye clean who bear the vessels of
the Lord, ;" and in the name, and for the
sake of suffering humanity, do, oh, do let
it be the last. Pardon me if you consider
my language too strong, but you know
nothing of the real, intense agony which
mothers, wives, sisters and children endure
by this awful traffic. Will you, oh, will
you still continue to make drunkards while
you read in your Bible that no drunkard
shall enter the kingdom of heaven? / leave
this with you. Take to the Lord in prayer.
