MISERABLE HOMES.

| The Liquor Traffic and Poverty Every
Dollar spent in the saloon n Blow at
| the Family.
An old citizen of Madison in our office
recently said: YOU'D be surprised to
see how some of my neighbors live. You
wouldn't think that any one in Madison
! lived on such starvation food as some of
them eat. There was little boy came
to take supper with my little boy the
other evening. We had warm cakes with
butter on. The little fellow enjoyed
! them greatly, and said to my boy:
1--WE don't have no butter to our
| house,
"Ho, what dye eat on yer bread"
said my boy.
"Oh, we didn't have nuthin'; but
when we killed the pig, then we cat
lard on our bread
1--WE been in the homes of some of the
poorer people about there" continued
! the gentleman, land I've seen the fam
lilies sit down to the table with nothing
on the cover but dish of potatoes with
skim milk poured over them. | don't
know of one of those families where the
man of the house does not patronize the
saloon. The father of that little boy
who eats lard on his bread has all the
beer and tobacco he wants every day"
A prominent railroad man of the city
tells us that near his depot lives little
boy whose father is full of liquor as
as often as he can fill up. The little lad
had such an uncomfortable home and
his father so often flogs him that he
Of fipoa in h0
depot This winter the boy quit coming
to the depot. Upon inquiry the gentle
man found that the lad had to stay in
the house because he had no shoes.
In the city of Madison there arc
doubtless several thousand people who
suffer to greater or less degree for the
actual necessities of life. Perhaps one
third of the population do without tho
common comforts because of drink.
There are seventy-two saloons in the
city that are gathering in the money
that should be spent for these things.
They swallow each year over $3.50, 200
worth of home comforts. The saloon
keepers and the brewers can dine every
day on turkey and cranberry sauce, but
the little children of their patrons must
eat lard on their bread or starve.
On recent Saturday twenty-eight
| farm teams were counted about one
farmers saloon in Madison. 1t is safe
enough to reckon that twenty-eight
farmers spent money for liquor that day
and went home with foul-smelling
breaths and minus little money. Prob
ably some went home ugly or stupidity
drunk. Suppose the money that went
for that beer had been spent for oranges,
candy and nuts for the wife and children
at home, the fathers return would be
hailed with delight and the home bond
be strengthened. Every dollar spent in
the saloon is blow at the family, and
the family is the defense of our Nation.

HOW BEER AFFECTS THE BODY.

Testimony as to the Relative Resisting
Powers of Beer Drinkers and Temper
ance Men.
About two years ago the Mail gath
cred the opinions of the. medical fra
ternity of Madison on the effects of beer
on the human body. With one excep-
ton they gave straightforward replies.
the majority being quite adverse to the
use of the beverage. That exception was
a youthful physician who had not been
in business long enough to learn how
to act when interviewed. He thought
the question 'impertinent."
Not long ago this physician had seri-
Gus wounded limb to dress. The wound
ed man was healthy and temperate, and
contrary to expectation the limb grew
better with good treatment. IF you
had been even moderate beer drinker,"
said the physician to the patient, 1--WE
would have had to amputate it," This
adds another to the long list OF medical
testimony against the use of beer.
William E. Lewis, Wisconsin State
secretary of the Young Mems Christian
Association, gave us some testimony on
the relative resisting powers of beer
drinker and a Temperance man. He
belonged to Company Il. of the Thirty
Seventh Massachusetts, Volunteers in
the civil war; He belonged to a squad
of four called ',the model squad" be-
cause they did not use liquor. tobacco

For this great occasion excursion tickets
will be sold from all principal points in the
United States and Canada to Milwaukee,
and return via the Chicago, Milwaukee d
St Paul Railway at hdU rates.
As its name indicates the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St Paul Railway is the direct
route to Milwaukee and as the camp ground
for the Uniformed Knights Ito which point
cars and trains will be run through with
out transfer) is located directly on this line,
it will be seen that the Chicago, milwaukee,

over other routes which are unable to fur
nish such facilities, and visiting Knights,
their families and friends should bear this
in mind when purchasing excursion tickets.

OGDEN DEPARTMENT.
TUESDAY.
The Bicyclists.

About fifty wheelmen were at the Hot
Springs last Sunday. The club from Salt
Lake were the guests of the Ogden boys.
The Ogden club did honor to themselves in
the manner in which they entertained the
visiting cyclists from the capital. The
party left Ogden about 1890 in the mora
ing and they made the run to the springs, a
distance of about nine miles, in one hour
and fifteen minutes, arriving at their desti-
nation at II :45. Soon after the party ar
rived Mr.. NJ e. Post, the gentlemanly
manager of Ogden's famous resort, escorted
the jolly cyclists into the spacious dining
hall of the Hot Springs hotel where an
elegant and delicious lunch was awaiting
them. After all had sat down to the noon
day rcpast, the visitors appreciation OF the
least was so great tina. several were heard
TO remark that 1.-The Ogden boys know how
TO entertain their guests
Surely Mr.. Post deserves much credit
Tor the able manner in which he enter
tanned the entire party in the dining-room
of his hotel. After lunch was over the
captains OF the two clubs called the wheel
men in line ana they were soon off for the
Ogden Driving park, where the afternoon
was spent in racing, bali playing and other
amusements. One of the novel features of
the days entertainment was race between
several wheelmen and trotting horse.
The track was quite heavy and in a rather
bad condition. But the race was won by
one Of the heros Of the wheel from Salt
Lake. The quickest time made was 3:l4.
The ball game was really not contest, nor
was IL intended to be from the start. How
ever, the Salt Lakers won by several
majority over the home team.
After this was over the clubs returned
TO Ogden just in time for the visitors
To catch the train for Salt Lake
On whole the day was well spent and
every one seemed to enjoy themselves. The
following were included in the Salt Lake
club: L. o. Angel, captain, g. B. Mark

Not After Midnight.

Petitions were circulated among the
various churches of this city Sunday last
which read:
To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of
Ogden, Utah:
GENTLEMEN-We, the undersigned resi-
dent taxpayers and citizens of Ogden City,
Utah, do most earnestly protest against the
granting of any petition which will allow
saloons to keep open after midnight or on
the Sabbath day And we would most
earnestly petition that all laws regulating
the sale of Intoxicating liquors be strictly
enforced, and we will ever pray.
1t will be remembered that at the meet
ing of the city council last Friday evening
petition from the saloon keepers was read
asking the privilege to keep their places of
business open all night, and the anti-saloon
people have taken this means of defending
the morality of the city.

a Sad Death.

A sad accident occurred at the Utah g.
Northern railway. about a mile and a half
north of Ogden, yesterday afternoon. A
lady by the name of Mrs. Hewitt was over
taken by the train which leaves Ogden for
the Hot Springs at 2:30 o'clock, and killed
almost instantly. 1t seems that the en-
gineer gave the alarm as the engine ap-
preached her, but the lady was deaf and
failed to hear the shrek of the locomotives
whistle. When the train struck her she
was hurled TO the ground, and perhaps
never knew what caused her untimely
death. She was picked up, and it was
found that one leg was broken above the
ankle, and severe bruises were noticed
about the head.
The corpse was brought to Ogden, and an
inquest was held at the office of Undertaken
Preshaw at o'clock last evening

To the Editor of THE HERALD:
Please answer through the columns of
THE HERALD the following. l appeal to
you, knowing that the Tribune won't give
an Independent Workingman fair play by
publishing an answer:
The Tribune in.an editorial of Wednesday,
August 13, strikes blow at the .'lndepend-
emit Workingmen Movement" calling it
unlawful conabitation with the Mormon
church and crime. The biggest fraud
that was ever committed in politics was the
formation of the so-called Liberal party
1t is an unlawful cohabiuation of elements
WEIGH never have and never will agree
Look at the Republican, Democrat and
Prohibitionist; the Protestant, Roman
Catholic and Jew getting. up combination
and calling it Liberal party" The pro-
per name for it would be ''Illiberal party"
That the days or this miscarriage, the So
called Liberal party, are numbered, no one
knows better than its leaders. The indie
pendent Workingmen will never forget the
assistance the Mormon people gave them
at the start. and as soon as we have control
Of Salt Lake city and county we'll send
some of the so called Liberals where they
would like to see us.
