think only of the drunkard. 1t is a
noble thing to work for his reforma-
ton. but it is greater work to strive
to throw around the young those safe
guards which will prevent them from
becoming victims of strong drink. But
there are many who do not seem to
think of the children at all. In speak
ing of license people argue sometimes
that as much liquor is sold under pro
hibition as when licenses are granted.
1T is sold on the sly" they say. No
doubt many an old topper will have his
liquor anyway. He will dodge i'll at
back doors. through dark alleys. If by
so doing he can get a drink. But this
back door trade does not tempt the
young. The open saloon is constant
menace to the young people of the
community in which it exists. For
the sake of the children let us battle
with this evil, never thinking of such
thing as compromise, but with al
our might and our power labor for the
utter determination of the drink curse

Let every w. c. T. U. woman in oul
fair Mississippi remember that the
State Prohibition Executive Commit
tee has made most earnest call for a
State Convention at Jackson on June
9th, and let us do all in our power to
influence the good men of the State to
respond to that call.
Let each Christian woman see to it
that the home will hold no hindrance
in time like that to keep the father,
brother or husband from being on
hand at the Capital and ready to do
the grandest work of his life by en-
rolling his name with the lofty party
that stands for the up-building of hap
Ply homes, for the tearing down of all
that is hurtful and for the ushering in
of moral, financial and political pros
perity for our country. There is no
doubt that the prohibition of the Ii
quor traffic would be the greatest
blessing to rich and poor, men and
women, that could come upon them;
and to the children of today who are
to be the men and women of tomorrow,
the benefits of such a thing could not
be told.
Women of the w. G.. T. u. do some
thing say something nOW while the
opportunity is yours to influence some
one who wants to step out from the
corruption of the old party he has
served so long. but needs a word of en-
couragement lest he should grow faint
hearted and delay the time for doing
50 good a thing.
Speak word to him now; tell him
how his home, his oacn fireside, his
faithful wife, his precious children are
all calling to him to ''cast off the slav-
ish shackles which bind him and step
forth as Gods own free man ready to
battle for what is just and right"

Before this issue of THE LEADER
reaches you our grand State Conven-
ton will have met and adjourned, and
let us hope will have accomplished
much good for the cause we love. New
er before has there been such interest
felt in the great temperance reform.
The mighty Jehovah is marshalling his
forces throughout the world; from all
quarters recruits are being gathered
together in the grand army that will
ere long storm the citadel of the enc
my and take this old world for Christ.
All classes of people are looking on to
see what will be the result of so much
activity along the many lines of tenn
perance work Many who once stood
prejudiced against this work and
who kept up the practice of wine
drinking in their own homes and did
nothing to close up the saloons that
were everywhere open to entice their
children. are now beginning to see
their error and they are crossing over
the line and realizing that something
must be done to counteract the terri
BILE work that intemperance has
wrought in their homes is
required of them before their own
homes are rescued from the arch enc
my. We can see this influence at work
and it is a hopeful sign. Opportuni-
ties are opening on all sides to all PEG
pie and especially to all Christian PEG
people to do something to ''rescue the
perishing" from the awful curse of Ii
quor drinking; and while this is true
it is also solemn truth that ''for a
dead opportunity there is no resurTcc-
ton" Let not these chances pass I'M
improved. We are responsible for the
way in which our time is spent and
will surely have to give an account of
it in the great day of judgment,

A Startling Announcement is This.

The sins of the fathers, in connec-
ton with liquor drinking, are visited
on the children to the third and fourth
generation to a greater extent than
with most other sins. Recently, in
England, about 5000 children in con-
nection with 105 schools were eXamin-
ed by competent physicians, and over
30 per cent. of them were suffering
from physical or mental effects, attrib-
uted mainly to the drinking habits of
their parents. If all the children OF
all the schools of the country were ex-
amined, and truthful report furnish
ed. what terrible indictment it would
make against a business sanctioned
and protected by the laws of our ma
ton All these thousands and thous-
ands of children must go through life
impaired, and in many instances ruin
ed, not because of any fault of their
Own. The loss to the whole country
because of such defective citizens Is
tremendous. And yet some will per
sist in claiming that if man drinks it
is his own business. In dealing with
the temperance question we are not to

Hear what the saloon is able to do
and does do. THE saloon holds its
sovereignty by its ability to coerce the
great parties into compliance with its
will. The liquor trade is an organized
force. 1t casts its influence on the
side of the party it can best trust. it
cares for neither Of them, yet it has
them both at it's feet, its chains are on
their necks, and they dare not spurn
its mandates. Municipal officers and
State officials aae nominated by the
saloon and in the saloon. Nominating
conventions only confirm the dictum
of the saloon, and publicly present the
candidates of the liquor interests.
Each saloon on an average controls ten
votes power balance that makes
rum rule inevitable. The great parties
understand this fact, and act upon it,
The rum power must be placated, not
offended. The saloon must be bought,
and not excluded from power. 1t has
its price, and that price must be paid.
Good men must be excluded from of
flee. and creatures of the saloon elect
ed. Public improvements and NUM-
cipal reforms must wait the will of the
saloon. This interest must dominate
the city and State government, and be
fostered at the expense of everything

They are high in their praise
towards Sheriff Campbell, and say
he is deserving of credit for the
efficient manner in which every
thing is conducted in the Jail. The
food, they say, is substantial, and
prisoners in the BeXar county jail
have no reason whatever, to COM
plain for the want of food or cloth

to visit the poorhouse this after

On Turning In TrOusers.

am asked to explain why some men
think it fashionable to turn up the bot
toms of their trousers, and how such a
fashion originated. Men may turn up
their trousers in wet weather without
reproach, because the doing so is neat
and thrifty; but to turn up trousers in
dry weather was first thought of by a
lot of London bank clerks, who sit on
the razor-back tops of the Oxford
street omnibuses, and are apt to rub
the bottoms of their trousers against
the hardware of the seats. To keep
them turned up through the day prob
ably struck them as economical. But
| have never seen men of fashion in
London turn up their trousers under
any circumstances. In wet weather
they take cab, but for one of them to
appear on Rotten Row in the season
with his trousers turned up would be
justly considered as a serious breach
of decorum. | am aware that noble
earl at wedding recently in this city
appeared at the altar with his trousers
turned up. But am forced to con.
clude he intended that as cynical
practical joke on the anglo-maniacs
and weak imitators he had met at the
New York clubs. who think it is Eng.
lish to wear trousers turned up an inch
at the bottom.-N. Y. Press
