The evil wrought by alcoholic drink
is now acknowledged and proclaimed by
all the organs of public opinion. 1t un-
dermines health, enfeebles the will,
coarsens the mind and infiames animal
passions. 1t separates husbands and
wives, divides families and deprives
children of the home influence which
nothing else can supply. 1t lowers the
standard of morals, fills prisons and in
sane asylums with its victims and feeds
the germs of corruption in the body pol
itic. 1t is, in a word, the cause or the
occasion of four-f -fifths of the crime by
which our national life is disgraced.

There are two kinds of wine used, and
these were used by the ancients as well
as by the moderns. The one is unfer-
mented and perfectly harmless. while
the other is fermented, producing intoxi-
cation and its consequent pernicious
effects.-Rev. D. M. Mcclellan.

The time has come when Prohibition

How many boys will be required this
year to supply the drunkard mills Of this
state?
Pennsylvania preachers preach pure,
plain, pointed party Prohibition-per-
haps!
The farmers of the country are coming
out of the old parties by the hundreds Of
thousands.
Don't wait for public sentiment to
drive out the saloon. If your sentiment
is all right, strike!
In five years after the saloons are
closed in this country fully one-half Of
the jails will be empty.

Brother, do you hold one end of that
chain?
So long as there are high licensed,
high toned saloons, just so long will
there be low dives. Every sewer must
have an outlet.
The English now control the produc-
tion of beer in this country. They make
money on the degradation of American
manhood. Shame
"Fellow citizens" said the politician,
"them's my sentiments eggsactly, and,
gol darn't, if they don't suit you they
can be changed" [Great cheering.]
So far as resolutions are concerned,
the churches are all right. They are all
for prohibition. But when it comes to
voting, they are all wrong. They ''pray
like angels and vote like the devil"
What an inconsistent position that
man is in who votes for the legalization
of the liquor traffic and then signs
remonstrance against saloons! He says
by his vote that he is in favor of saloons,
but by signing the remonstrance says he
is not!

was asked by the editor Of The Union

Prohibition will prohibit when officers
will have to depend on the votes Of Pro-
hibitionists for their election, and not
before. The majority of the people in
this country are against the saloon, and
when new political division takes place
the party Of Prohibition will elect the
president of the United States and q
majority of the congress. Every man.
who believes in prohibition should work
for this new party.

An ATROCiOUS CRIME.
1t is Suspected that murder Was Planned
by the Family.

RALEIGH, n. C.-Thc preliminary
trial of George Mills, charged with
murder and attempted criminal assault
on his niece, Miss Wimberly, near
here several weeks ago, was held here.
Several witnesses were introduced,
among them the father of the MUIR
dercd girl, and two physicians, who
attended her after the assault.
The father acknowledged that he
made another daughter wash blood of
of Mills clothes when he came back on
the night of the tragedy and reported
the girls death. But the father de-
nirl that he said that those spots would
break the neck of both of them If any
one else saw them.
The trial lasted three hours and
created II great deal of interest. Tho
courthouse WAS crowded.
The general belief is that Mills killed
the girl, but that her family planned
and caused the murder to save her and
the other members from disgrace.
1T Is said that there is much evidence
of II very Sensational character that
Till not he brought out till the final
rial, ON Scrtcmhrr24th At the close
of the trial to-day Mills was marched
back 10 priHon, without bail.
