Strong Temperance Resolutions.
ST. LOUIS, May l4th-In the Southern
Methodist Conference to-day the Commit
tee on Temperance reported in favor of I'M
fermented wine for sacrament, whenever
practicable, and approved the resolutions
introduced last week opposing all laws
licensing or permitting the manufacture or
sale of intoxicating liquors as beverage,
because such laws provide for the continu-
ance of the traffic and furnish no protec-
ton against its ravages. That the proper
attitude of Christians toward the drink
traffic should be an uncompromisiDg oppo-
sition, and voluntary total abstinence is
the sole and true ground of personal tenn
perance, and complete legal prohibition is
the duty of the Government.
The report went to the calendar and will
no doub. cause much debate when it comes
up for consideration.
