CE-PREsIDENT WILSON'S VOW
After Mr.. Wilson's first election to
the United States Senate he gave his
friends a dinner at a noted Boston
hotel. The table was set with not one
wine glass upon it. 'sWhere are the
glasses % asked several of the guests,
loud enough to remind their host that
they did not like sitting down to a
wineless dinner. Gentlemen" said
Mr.. Wilson, rising and speaking with
a great deal of feeling, ''you know
my friendship for you, and my obi
cations to you. Great as they are
they are not great enough to make me
forget the rock whence ] was hewn
and the pit whence / was dug.
Some of you know how the curse of
intemperance overshadowed my youth.
That I might escape / fed from my
early surroundings. For what l am
/ am indebted, under God, to my tenn
perance VOW and my adherence to it.
Call for what you want to eat, and if
this hotel can provide it it shall be
forthcoming but wines and liquors
cannot come to this table with my
consent, because will not spread in
the path of another the snare from
which / escaped" Three rousing
cheers showed the brave Senator that
men admire the man who has the cour-
age of his convictions.

Such remarkable event is treasured in

good health has been attained is grateful

heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So
many feel that they owe their restoration
to health to the use of the great altera

efforts. 1t says -
For years the people of this country
believed, and they had reason to believe,
that when the Democracy came into
power, when they got access to the
books and the accounts of the Govern
ment, there would be a revelation of
malfeasance, of corruption, and of
plumber. which would cover with shame
a majority of the Republican officials of
the previous twenty years, and would
produce such a condition of the public
judgement that the Republican party
would never be restored. But there has
been no such revelation. With the eX-
ception of the Navy Department alone,
the whole effort and effect of Mr.. Cleve-
land and his assistants has been to give
a clean bill of health to their Republi
can predecessors. Nothing has been re-
yealed. According to Mr.. Cleveland
and his assistants, with the one excep-
ton we have mentioned, all the Repub-
lican Administrations have been honest
ly and wisely conducted. There has
been no perversion of the public funds.
There has been no abuse of public
authority. Purity and patriotism have
been the rule with our Republican
bosses from the beginning to the end
