Springer, of the army, last week. was on Thursday joined by Judge Stewart, of the central dis trict, and together they will labor with the officials of the department of justice with view to straightening out the tangle in the law constituting the courts over which they pre- side.

Judges Stewart and Springer had d consultation with Attorney-General Harmon yesterday morning, and al it's close they expressed confidence that some way would be found to satisfac- torilY settle the difficulties confront ing the judges.

Rev. Spelman addressed his remarks
particularly to the order, and demon
strated where they had made progress
as shown by history. Then, in compar-
ing the past clergy with the present, he
showed how our ancestorial ministers
used to sip around the table their wine
and gin as we do with our tea and coffee.
He also traced the different ways, from
the origin Of the temperance movement
as they first tried moral suasion,
which failed; nor was the prohibitory
law considered the best, but their power,
as he believed, was in influencing the
young people to throw moral powers
about them. For, as he said, we have

the past working should be used as
lessons and be like Peter the Great, who

late war, would certainly compel us to
wipe out this wrong, if needs be, by
blood.
