A large and select audience greeted
Mrs. Marion Todd at the opera house
last evening and listened to her political
address under the title OF "Our Country's
Crisis" II must have been q little
Notifying to the w. g. T. q. under
whose auspices she spoke, to be made
sponsor for such o rabid, ~populistic ad
dress, unless the w. c. n. u. has gone
into that kind OF business in politics.
Mrs. Todd is an excellent speaker, de-
liberate, distinct. dramatic il need be.
But she is not AZ far advanced ia popu~
list ideas as many OF the western So
called re- orm speakers, and the old hack
neyed arguments restated by her in
witty ridicule or even scornfal sarcasm
were not effective weapons OF conviction.
She did not make AZ convincing an
argument as q woman OF her ability
could do nor yet did she point the way
OF reform.
Agoodly attendance Of the Christian
people Of the city collected az the NJ. e.
church yesterday afternoon from 8 to 5
o'clock, and offered earnest prayer
for rain. They met at the same houre
this afternoon and win continue to do so
until rain comes. While the signs Of
rain are more promising since these
prayers were offered than at tiny time
during the long dry weeks that have
passed, yet, il Christian philosophy
teaches that these calamities and trials
are proyidences OF God to bring the
wcrldly-minded back to Him, ::t would
seem 20 continue for some time yet, as
there was not, 10 our knowledge, an nm
repentant sinner there. lie people really
did q rain badly it would seem as IL
they ought TO be more united Ia asking
the Almighty for ii. How would il do
It the dry weather continues, to close
stores for anhenr or two as has been
done at other places, and every body
show respect to the power Of prayer by
attending the meeting?
