COLORED BAPTISTS RESOLVE.
No Membership for the Man Who Votes
for License Parties.

No Membership for the Man Who Votes
for License Parties.
The Nebraska and Iowa Border Col
ored Baptist association, at its recent
annual session at Council Bluffs, Ia,
adopted the subjoined resolution
We, your committee on temperance,
dssiys to report as follows:
That, in our Judgment there is no
crime against God and humanity that
equals the traffic in and use OF intoxi-
eating liquors; we charge the traffic
with filling our jails with prisoners,
our penitentiaries with convicts it sup
plies our gallows with victims to be
hung; destroys the home, leads to pros
titution and gambling, makes widows
and orphans, eorrupts legislatures,
bribes voters and the press, threatens
the stability of government and the
civilization of the age, stands in the
way of the church in it's efforts to evan
gelize the world, ruins men morally,
physically and spiritually, for time and
eternity.
We denounce the licensing of the
murderous traffic as violation of the
the Bible, and sin against God; and
we further declare that, in our judg-
ment, no person lin view of the sinful
traffic. who sign saloon petitions, votes
for license or with parties who Ii
cense the saloon, ought to hold a men,
bership in Baptist church.
And we further declare that the
$500 Christian voters now in this coun-
try make themselves responsible for
the existence of the saloon and all its
awful consequences by voting for the
parties who favor its continuance.
We also strongly condemn the use of
tobacco by the ministry and members,
as both are injurious to health, and
vicious and immoral In practice, and as
having bad effect upon our boys
whom we can not reasonably hope to
control, as to its use, so long as our
ministers and professed Christians con-
tinue to set the example which causes
them to offend

a LIVELY MEETING.
Henry George and John @. Woolley Ad-
dress the Ministers of Chicago.

Henry George and John G. wooiiey Ad-
dress the Ministers of Chicago.
The Methodist ministers of this city
held a long session recently. There
was q large attendance not only of
ministers but of many other people who
had come to hear John G. Woolley
speak on the temperance question.
Henry George, the noted single tax
leader, was present and was intro
duced. lie was asked to speak and did
30, on his favorite topic. Among other
things he said it must make the re-
turned missionary sad to find in his ma
tive land conditions which would shame
the veriest heathen "What is the
reason?~ he asked, Drink? Perhaps
Yet the drink habit is greatest among
the poor. Social conditions drive them
to liquor for relief. Social conditions
do not give to all fair share of the
beunties of God. Land is monopolized
and that is the underlying cause, :"
Several of the ministers took excep-
tion to his conclusions and said they
believed intemperancc to be the cause
of the poverty of the people.
DR.. Young said: Il do not know that
l can vote for single alderman in Chi
cago The are all for license / want
to be one to march in solid phalanX to
put down the damnable liquor traffic"
Mr. Woolley said: The trouble with
the church is it does not know where
it stands. Meet man with white tie
and ask him how he stands and he says
L am Methodist Ask him again
how he stands on the liquor question
and you may find out. But it takes at
least two questions to find out how
Methodist stands
DR.. Frank Bristol was on his feet in
moment trembling with excitement.
He shook his finger at Mr.. Woolley
and said: Every minister in the Rock
river conference knows where he
stands on this question and we know
it, and it is a libel for any man to say
he does not. But when it comes to
methods that is different thing"
DR.. Clifford was called on and said:
1.-The personifcation of respecta bility
north of Mason and Dixon's line is sup
posed to be in the republican party, in
the south in the democratic party. l
went to banquet of the lroquois club
sometime ago That club is the quint-
essence of respectability in the demo-
cratic party in Chicago They had sew
en- kinds of wine. Later / went to a
banquet of the personification of re-
publican respectability in Chicago
the Hamilton club. 1t had six kinds of
wine. We must stand with some party
which has prohibition in it's platform
and which will support men who will
| use prohibitory methods"
What were you doing at banquet
where so many different kinds of wine
were served?" asked Dr. Bristol
MY dear SIR" retorted DIR. Clifford,
81 would go to hell to pray If l were
invited"
DR.. Bristol approached DIR. Clifford
and said again and again: you are
not sincere, you are not sincere. Chi

Prohibitionists Are Pushing a Vigorous
Campaign-Lo Local Option Contests.
kentucky has only legislative and
municipal campaigns this fall The
prohibitionists are as active as usual,
saws the New York Voice. Some noni-
mating conventions have already been
held. In La Rue county DIR. benjamin
C. SIMPSON is running well for the leg
islature; in Mercer county two promi-
nent men, Caldwell McAfee and Ed
mond Burrus, are running for the leg
islature and senate erespectively. Many
other conventions have been called, and
before few weeks numerous prohibi-
ton candidates will be in the field. Ac-
tive speaking for prohibition continues.
In the I'd district Col. j. M. Holmes is
speaking by direction of the state COM
mittee. In the Sd district, Crit G.
Hughes; in the 4th, William NJ. Likens;
in the 9th, Prof. A. L. Voters. and in
the 7th, II. NJ. Houston, are actively at
work.
Local option contests continue, and
the victory usually goes to the "Drys,"
but old-party officials and whisky
Judges make the whiskyites victorious

PROHIBITION.
God Enacted Special statstes Prohibiting
tho Use OF Intoxieants.


tho Use OF Intoxieants.
God has enacted special statutes pro-
hibiting the use Of intoxicants among
his people. The following stringent
law was made concerning priests who
were to minister at His altars: "Do not
drink wine or strong drink, thou, nor
thy sons with thee, when yc go into the
tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye
die; it shall be a statute forever
throughout your generations" (Lev.
10:e.) The reason for this prohibition
~as flseS strong drink worA render
them incompetent to discharge their
sacred duties If wire-drinking would
unfit Jewish priest for the ministe-
rial office, it would also disQualify any
other person for that high position.
Hence, this law was to be perpetual
rule.
The divine admonition to civil rulers
is equally clear and emphatic: ut is
not for kings, o Lemuel, it is not for
kings to drink wine; nor for princes
strong drink. Lest they drink, and
forget the law, and peryert the judg-
ment of any of the afflicted. prov.
3k4,5) Kings and princes represent
all classes of civil rulers. Our presi-
dent, cabinet, members of congress,
governors, legislators, judges, etc, be-
long in the same category and are
morally amenable to the same divine
law. No man charged with the admin
istration of government is qualified to
perform his official duties when under
the influence of intoxicating liquor. In
such cases legislation is perverted,
justice is defeated, and the people suf-
fer great loss or injury. / could give
many instances in which great men
have been ruined, high positions dis
honored and illustrious names everlast-
ingly disgraced by liquor drinking
among public officers.
The nation of Israel had absolute pro-
hibition during their entire sojourn of
forty years in the wilderness. God said
to them with marked approval: "Ie
have not eaten bread, neither have ye
drunk wine or strong drink: that ye
may know that l am the Lord your
God" (Deut xxx, g. This prohib-
! itory law was frame by the Almighty
himself The nation of Israel was 4
theOcracy. All tneir li"S anu Ut
dinances came from God. (Read Deut.
viii, 49, Here, then, we have an ex-
ample Of prohibition throughout an
entire nation by the direct authority
and encouragement of God On that
we to-day might secure such effective
temperance legislation as existed
among Gods chosen people more than
three thousand years ago. But with
all our boasted progress in this the twi-
/ light of the nineteenth century, we arc
not yet as wise as Gods ancient law.
The divine legislation would ba nish in
toxicating liquor from a Christian ma
ton on earth, as we'll as exclude the
drunkaYd from the church CT God and
from the kingdom Of Heaven.-Rev. b.

Specially Recognize the Democrat Party,
But Have Friends in Both Political
PARTIES"
At the state convention of the
liquor dealers, held at Syracuse, n.
Y, recently, Morris Tekulsky, of New
York, was again chosen president, and
resolutions were adopted specially
acknowledging that whereas 1--WE are
greatly indebted to the democratic
party of the state of New York for the
passage of the remedial excise legisla-
tion Of the sessions of 1892 and '93," and
also:
"Whereas, We appreciate the fact
that our friends are i'll both political
parties, and, desiring to retain their
friendship, we hereby thank the mem.
bers of the last legislature, who by
casting their votes in our interest have
rendered us a valuable service;
Therefore be it Resolved, That this
association is in no sense political or,
ganization, but that It's sole purpose is
to promulgate the principle of personal
liberty and protect its members against
the assaults OF fanatics, hypocrites and
blackmailers-
Resolved, however, That when a
member of either political party rises
SO far above personal consideration and
time-serying timidlty as to champion
our cause in the council chamber of the
city. state or nation, we deem it to be
our duty to recognize such an advocate
whenever and wherever we find him.
