CHURCH AND Rum POWER.


BosroN, oct - Rev l.. a. Banks
spoke in tho First Methodist church this
morning on 'Methodi-m and the Saloon. -
lie said: the utterance of these two con-
ferences, wFilo expressed in different Ian
gus1e, are in perfect agreement.
They set forth with all the solemnity and
power Of which they ere capable, three
Things. rust--l he prohibition OF the liquor
tratIc is the first aud most important issue
leforo tho Christian voter. Sooond-No
Christian eau consistently vote for or with
party which is committed to the license
system
Third No Christian can consistently vote
for or with party which does not assume
an attitude of open hostility TO the saloon.
After reviewing Tho platforms Of the poo
Pies, republican and democratic parties,
and stating that the two Old parties are in
bondage to tho saloon, the speaker said
The only party that accepts the liquor
traffic az the first and foremost issue before
the people; that refuses to be party to Ii
ceusiug or protecting the saloon and that
declares its open hostility 10 the saloon, is
the prohibition party, and it does meet
fririy and sUuarely all Of these conditions.
What excuse can we have iu refusing to fol
low our earnest tmoral convictions and reg
i,toring them at the ballot box .'
