THE
SALOONS ARE STILL HERE
THEREFORE,
THE WAR MUST GO ON!
STARTLING LIVING PICTURES.

Salvation Army Resorts to Modern Stage
Devices to DO Good.
Living pictures were shown last night
in Princess rink by the Salvation Army
corps. The first was representation of
drurkards hovel. The husband, in a
drunken stupor, was sleeping in the
only chair In one corner his weeping
wife was sitting on Il box, holding ba-
by in her arms. Upon the hard floor,
with only torn blanket to cover them,
were sleeping two more children, and
a fourth one, the oldest, stood on one
side of the room and sung 1.-THE Drunk
ards Song
During the interval between this pic
turo and the next one half a dozen per-
sons testified that they had been saved
from the curse of liquor by the help of
the Salvation Army.
The next picture represented the Sal
walton Army cadets in the "slums. - A
cheerful word is spoken to all, song
is sung, and before leaving the cadets
kneel in prayer. A bright transtigura-
tion is the third picture. In place Of
the hovel with its squalor is bright
home. The husband, we'll dressed, is seat
ed in a cheerful parlor, his wife and
children about him. The man has been
converted and joined the Salvation Ar
my. The affair closed with an appeal
by Adjutant Winchell.-Chicago Rec
ord.

Friends of Pr ohibitiOn, Take Note.

Prohibition prevailed in the province
of Ontario mainly through the influence
of an energetic prohibition press. The
country was flooded for months before
the plebiscite with prohibition litera-
ture of all kinds, while newspapers ad-
vocating that cause were set afloat and
literally circulated i'll every nook and
corner of the province. Will the liquor
trade profit by this experience? The
press is a surer reliance for them than
all the politicians in the land. Support
those journals that are defending your
cause. Wine and Spirit Gazette.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1894-11-20

Watch the politicians of the old par
ties. Are they out looking after the
church vote? Are they holding confer
ences with the ministers and deacons
and elders and Sunday school superin-
tendents? Or are they looking after the
saloon vote and setting them up for the
"boys?" You know that they have to
cater to the lower and baser elements in
your neighborhood and for the reason
that they know that the church people
will vote for them anyway. The church
in political matters is being dragged
through the mud of gang of political
ringsters, and her members have not
the manhood to break away. Oh, poor,
cowardly church of God!

Nine. Patti on Alcoholic Stimulants.

Nine. Patti has uttered some strong
convictions on the effect of alcoholic
liquors on the human voice. She thinks
any one who aspires to success as q
vocalist should be total abstainer. She
says: Alcoholic stimulants Of any kind
tend to irritate the throat and should be
entirely abstained from. Even light
wines are no exception to this rule.
Most people are familiar with the hoarse
voice of the hard drinker, and it is often
said of such an individual that he has
burned his throat with drink. Even .
moderate use of alcohol may therefore
tend to make the voice husky" Thus
all indications point to total abstinence.

The slumbering conscience Of the ma
tion is today the chief hindrance to the
success of the temperance reform. Light

power have stified moral sense, and we
have not in the church or out Of it q soil
on which to grow a reform which means
truth, right, patriotism and self denial.

Total Abstinence Gaining.

Among the novelties in connection
with dining that would astonish the
grandfathers, could they revisit the
glimpses of the moon, is the compara-

THE THEORY OF PARTY.
What Edmund Burke, the English Philos-
opher and Statesman, Said.

What Edmund Burke, the English PhiIos-
opher and Statesman, Said.
That duty public duty demands and
requires that what is right should not
only be made known, but made preva-
lent; that what is evil should not only
be detected, but defeated. When the
public man omits to put himself In o
situation of doing his duty with effect,
it is an omission that illustrates the pur-
poses of his trust almost as much as IL
he had formally betrayed 1t. 1t is sure
ly no very rational account of mans
life that he has always acted right, but
has taken special care to act in such q
manner that his endeavor could not pos
sibly be productive Of any consequence.
Party is a body of men united for pro-
noting, by their joint endeavors, the
national interest upon some particular
principle in which they are all agreed.
I find it impossible to conceive that any
one believes in his own politics, or
thinks it to be of any weight, who re-
fuses to adopt the means of having it re-
duced into practice. 1t is the business
of the speculative philosopher to mark
the proper ends of government. It is
the business of the politician, who is
the philosopher in action, to find out
proper means toward those ends and to
employ them with effect. Therefore ev-
cry honorable connection will avow it
as their first purpose to pursue every
just method to put the mon who hold
their opinions into such a condition as
may enable them to carry their common
plans into execution, with all the power
and authority of the state. As this pow
er is attached to certain situations, it is
their duty to contend for these situa-
tions. Without prescription Of 9TH
ers they are bound to give to their own
party the preference in all things, and
by no means, for private considerations,
to accept any offer of power in which
the whole body is not included, or to
suffer themselves to be led, or to be con-
trolled, or to be overbalanced, in Office
or in council, by those who contradict
the very fundamental principles on
which their party is formed, and even
those upon which every fair connection
must stand.

Doesn't Worder at Prohibitionists Leaving
the Church.


the Church.
We cannot wonder that men and wo-
men whose personal experiences and in
vestigations have led them into full
realization of the enormity of the liquor
evil, and who have conceived an undy-
ing hatred for the liquor business on
that account, find it hard to retain an
active connection with any religious
body too apathetic, too ignorant or too
Indifferent to ally itself openly and un-
oompromisingly against the accurscd
thing. We believe, however, that the
church will right itself on this question,
and that soon. To believe otherwise
would be to doubt that the church has
a place in the divine order of the world.
