The Huge Document to Be Laid Before

Text Of the Petition.

WASHINGTON, Feb 16.-The Metro

comingly decorated to-day in honor
of the convention of the w. G 4. U.
Mrs. M. E. Griffith, president of the
district branch, welcomed the dele

people of all nationalities. 1t reads
as follows:
For God and Home and Every Land.
Polyglot petitions Of the Worlds Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union:
Addressed to the Governments of the
World: Honored rulers, representa-
tives and rulers: We, your petitioners,
although belonging to the physically
weaker sex, are strong of heart, to live
our homes, our native lands and the
worlds Of nations. We know that
clear brains and pure hearts make
honest lives and happy homes, and
that by these nations prosper, and
the time is brought nearer when the
world shall be at peace, We know
that indulgence in alcohol and opium
and in other vices which disgrace our
social life, makes misery for all the
world and most of all for us and our
children.
We know that stimulants and
opiates are sold under legal guaran-
tees. which makes the government
partners in the traffic, by accepting
as revenue portion of the profits,
and we know with shame that they
are often forced by the treaty upon
populations either ignorant or un-
willing, to know that you might 10
much, now left undone, to raise the
moral tone of society and render vice
difficult. We have no power to pre-
vent these great lniquities beneath
which the whole world groans, but
we have power to redeem the honor
of the nations from indefensible COM
plicity.
We therefore come to you with the
united voice of representative women
of every land, beseeehing you to raise
the standard of laws to that of Chris
tian morals, to strip away the safe
guards and sanctions of the state
from the drink traffic and the opium
trade and to protect our homes by
the total prohibition of this curse of
civilization throughout all the terri
tory over which your government ex-
tends,

THE SENATE WILL DO LITTLE.

No Prospect Of Financial Legislation In
View of the Houses Action.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16 Opinions in
the senate vary as to the influence of
the result of the vote in the house
upon the bond bill upon the future
course of the senate on the financial
question. The most generally ex-
pressed opinion ON the Republican
side is that the effect will be to rem
der unnecessary and futile any effort
to take up the financial question,
while Democrats generally express
the belief that the action of the house
will not control the movements of the
senate in any way.

consider that a small orchard, few

house will greatly enhance the value,
attract and hold a better class of ten
ants, make life more enjoyable and
that too at practically no cost? We tell
you there is a great deal of selflshness
when we look abroad and see how
stingy and selfish many are with their
tenants, and oftentimes perchance some
good farmer rents his farm and moves
away and is so selfish as to reserve all.
