EDUCATIONAL LABOR ASSOCIATION
Debate on the SubjecL Prohibition ard the
Wage Farmers

Debate on the SubjecL Prohibition ard the
Wage Farmers
There was large attendance at the Inter-
national Labor association at 1919 North
Main street yesterday afternoon. Will
Prohibition Benefit the Wage Garner? was
the subject of the regular Sunday debate.
DR.. Bowers was the leading speaker on the
affirmative. He made a strong argument
for the cause of prohibition, which he ell
forced by quoting the statistics of the
liquor traffic, showing the countless num-
ber who die annually from the effects of
drink, and the millions of dollars that are
spent for the qualification of the unnatural
appetite for intoxicants. He surprised his
hearers by reading the reports of careful
statisticians giving the number of drunk
ards in this country as 100000. Of
this number. he said, 100000 die every
year from the effects of alcoholism.
He then went into the history of pro-
hibiton in Maine, Kansas and Iowa. His
conclusion was that where prohibition has
been enforced crime and poverty has de-
creased while morality and prosperity have
correspondingly increased.
DR.. Richmond, who represented the mega
tive side of the question, prefaced his re-
marks by stating that he was not a sup
porter of the liquor traffic, although he
could not indorse the principles of pro-
hbition. In answer to the preceding speak
er's reference to the workings of the doc
trine of compulsory abstinence in Kansas,
DR.. Richmond said that his observation
gathered from a residence of several years
in that state, had given him a different
opinion of the workings of that policy. In
ordinate drinking, said he, was carried on
to greater extent there on account of the
prohibltory legislation than it would have
been otherwise. In general he believed
that prohibition would not benefit the
wage-earner as long as present social con-
ditions prevailed. He concluded his inter-
esting talk with an exposition of the sys-
tenn known as state control.
The subject being thrown open for gen.
eral discussion, many expressed their opin-
ions on both sides of the question.
Next Sunday afternoon j. K. Armstrong
will open the debate on the subject, What
Shall We Do With Our Unemployed?
Everyone is cordially invited to attend and

UTAH AND HER PEOPLE
Interesting Lecture by Elder Irvine of the r1or
mon Church

Interesting Lecture by Elder Irvine of the Tor
mon Church
Elder j. d. Irvine of the Church of Christ
of Latter Day Saints, commonly known as
the Mormon church, last evening delivered
lecture at Forester's hall, No. 245 South
Spring street, before small but apprecia-
tive audience. Elder Irvine is one of three
Mormon missionaries now prosecuting
their work in this city, and is in charge of
the work. He stated last evening that they
were not meeting with much success so far
as members were concerned, but that they
were "finding. the true in heart wherever
they existed" Mr.. Irvine further stated
that the Mormon church believed in the
principles of polyRamy, but that the
practice had been discontinued i'll defer
ence to the prevailing sentiment against it.
He further stated that the Mormon choir,
consisting of 200 voices, and which took
the second prize at the Worlds fair, would
soon visit San Francisco, and he was think
ing of trying to induce them to visit this
city.
Mr.. Irvine took as his subject, Utah and
Her People, which he considered under
four headings. as follows: "Why has Utah
been kept out so long?'' What brought
about her admttance!" "What KIND OF
people ara the Mormons?" and "Wili they,
as a church. dominate in civil affairs?" In
answer to the first proposition the speaker
said that Utah had been kept out, first,
because OF misrepresentation, and because
the people were misunderstood by the out
side world, and second. by the practice of
polygamy. AS to what brought about her
admittance, the speaker said it was pri-
marily the adoption of the manifesto issued
by the leaders of the church in 1870, the
discontinuance of the practice of polygamy
and the consequent good feeling that fol-
lowed. AS to the character Of the Mormons
as q people, they stood, said the speaker,
at the head, so far as education was con-
cerned, and had also made great strides
forward in the arts and sciences. As to
whether the Mormons, as a church, will
dominate in civil affairs, the speaker
stated they would not, that they believed
in the separation Of church and state. and
would never again countenance joining
temporal and spiritual matters.

fore unknown. Even Walter f. Parker,
the executive clerk. is in ignorance of the
text o. the message which his chief will
today make public.
1t is understood that the feature of the
message will be the reference to the city's
financial condition and the suggestions
relative to the ways and means which can
be adopted to seal the present leaks. The
message will, il is expected, aim to be the
principal document for the municipal cam
paign next winter.
City Attorney W. E. Dunn will, acting
upon instructions, today present to the
council two new ordinances, one making it
a misdemeanor to post Objectionable adj
vertising matter upon the dead walls of
the city, and the other prohibiting the
gathering of crowds at Central park for
uEseemly discussions.
The ordinance prohibiting the location
and operation of oil refineries inside the
city limits comes up as a special order at
o'clock in the afternoon. There will be a
big lobby in attendance, both for and
against the passage of the proposed new
law.
The report of the special committee
which has investigated the accounts of the
various commissions for the opening and
widening of streets is to be filed today.
The text of the document was printed in
full in yesterdays HERALD. Col. w. G.
Shredder, the clerk of the various commits
sions, has said that he will be on hand when
the auditors figures are submitted, to de-
fend himself in a very vigorous fashion.
The recently approved new sewer speci.
fications are to be approved today and a
request from the contractors for additional
time in which to complete the new school
buildings may be presented along with pro-
tests from some of the labor unions against
such extension.

from the use of cars donated by General

The Mysteries of Magic, the Secrets of
Alchemy and the Philosophers Stone, was
the subject of the theosophic lecture at
Odd Fellows hall last night. The audience
packed the hall to the doors. The speaker,
Mr.. Clark, said, in part, that the word
''magic" came from the ancient Sanscrit
maha which was connected with mahat,
the universal divine mind. The word did
not mean in ancient times what it does
now. when the divine occult sciences are
either unknown or prostituted to the greed
of gain as soon as acquired. Plato said
magic is the purest form of the worship of
things divine. Porphyry said: THE
learned men who were engaged among the
Persians in the worship of Deity are called
Magi." Nine. Blavatsky says: "Magic is
the science of communicating with and
directing supernal, superamundane poten-
cies, as we'll as of commanding those of the
lower spheres; practical knowledge OF
the hidden mysteries of nature known only
to the few, because they are SO difficult to
acquire. without falling into sins against
nature"
There are two kinds of magic: The ter
restrial, personal, animal, OF selfish, which
ia dark-full of false prophets which should
be es,ed or ignored. Money changes in
the temple of natures arcanuin. 1t is sell
fish and therefore a violation of natures
highest laws and will bring great suffering
step in the direction of the other kind OF
magic is when a man resolves to live up to
the higher self; to make the God in him
rule over the animal in him. 1t requires a
study of and living up to the highest
teachings of the religions of the world.
The secrets of magic lie in purity of mind,
strength of will and spirituality.
Alchemy comes from the word AL, or
ALA, God, and Chemi, fire; and means
Divine fire, by which the animal nature was
transmitted to the divine. Alchemy oper-
ated on four planes. spiritual, mental
psychic and physical, and was symbolized
by fire, air, water and earth. The seven
metals and planets correspond to the seven
principles in man. Fire. or heat, trans.
mutes all metals to the liquid and
then gaseous states. The real Sc.
cret of alchemy is the fire of
spiritual aspiration, which transmutes all
astral matter and the substance of the
mind and soul into higher plane, and
finally into pure spiritual gold. If we light
the fire of pure spiritual life, it actually
raises the vibrations of our whole nature to
the divine. This is the Philosophers Stone
or the spiritual rock upon which the philos.
opher builds the temple of his life.
