The Liquor Question.

@--O --1aO- ~7S6O5bAOA
The living, and all-absorbing ques-
ton now before the public is the liqu-
or problem.
just now it demands, the most ser
rious attention of every christian and
law-abiding citizen
The horrors of this traffic are too
deep to be fathomed by ordinary cal
culation. There was a time when
the subject OF temperance was talked
and prayed over from a sympathetic
standpoint only. But the tide has
taken a new turn; instead of consci-
ence merely. we now comm ence a cru
SADIE of intelligence and the applica-
ton of the law.
The people are fast coming to the
conclusion that public safety Is in the
law. We can best appeal to the in
tellect through reason, to the heart
through sympathy, and to the consci-
ence through the motives of religion.
But the traffic can best be control
ed by law. Rev. j. P. Aliens text

law is holy, and the commandment
holy, and just, and good" Romans
712.
Some one wants to know if the W.
G. 7. .. is a political movement. I
would answer, there is no politics in
the Womans' Christian Temperance
Union, and it Is not a third party
movement. Rev. Sam Jones says,
''Can you be a party to the sowing of
seed that will produce drunkards,
when God said himself no drunkard
shall enter the kingdom of God"
Every license for the sale of rum is
furnishing the feather by which your
brother is bound down hand and foot
and cast where Gods arm can never
reach him. And I will tell you an
other thing; we have laid low and said
nothing until now the strongest pow
er in America is the whiskey power.
The congress of the United States
stands and trembles in the presence
of the liquor power.
And the pulpits of this country say
II don't want to preach politics. u
What is the matter with the preach
ers; the liquor question is no more a
political question than Thou shalt
not steal' is a political question; nc
politics in that, I mean there ought
not to be. There is heap of that IL
politics, though my most earnest
prayer, my greatest longing is to live
to see the day in this grand country
of ours wheE there is nothing to break
mothers heart or to make a wife
weep her life away; when there is
nothing in America that will make 6
man stager, and make an honest man
steal, and a sensible man fool.
The people know they have the
power to hold and control this mon
ster evil, and prohibition has giver

church all over the world can joir

The grand uprising of the people
will soon oyertake these rum-selleri
and will soon sink this whole business
of rum-selling in a gulf so broad anc
so deep that there will be no resurrec
ton. META.
