WANTED, A MOSESl
BY Rev. S. B. Dunn.l

The need of the temperance cause in
this country just now is a leader. The
temperance forces among us are in some
such plight as were the federal armies
at the time when Grant took charge.
They are strong and they are brave and
they are ready to march against the
enemy, but they lack master mind to
lead them.
Would the men of 7G have laid the
foundations of this republic If Wash
ington had not come to the front? In
him the revolutionary forces found
leader
Israel at the foot of smoking Sinai,
even with Egypt behind them, were a
mob and rabble, with Moses lost in the
mount. It. was leader they needed to
conduct them to Canaan.
The vital question now is, Who shall
lead? Where is Moses?
a leader would be magnet gathering
about him the separate elements that
make up the temperance power of the
land. He would unity our forces. He
would centralize a sentiment that at
present Is diffused and even self-destruc-
, tive from suspicion and antagonisms.
A commanding personality, having a
genius for leadership, would silence dis
senson, inspire courage and direct a
policy that would eventuate in success.
Like military general he would disci-
plne raw recruits into veterans and
convert a mob of armed men into a
modified force competent to strike an
effective blow Give us a leader and
win we must.
"Great men are the tire-pillars of the
universe. We want one of these fire.
pillars Just nOw-one who shall lead us
through the wilderness where we are
entangled.
What's the matter with the Hon.
John G.. Woolley for a leader? This :
either he is too far in front for the great
body of temperance people to lead them,
or else the great body of temperance
people are too far IN the rear to be led.
TO accept Mr.. Wo~lley's leadership one
of two things must be done: Bring
your men up to the colers, or bring
your colors back to the line. A leader,
to lead, must be ahead of the ranks, but
not too far ahead. | have thought of
some of Mr.. Woolley's fiery, impetuous
and brilliant charges: This is magnti
cent, but it is not war! In his fierce
attacks upon the liquor traffic and nc
less upon tardy, dallying, tagging tenn
perance men he has the teeth of an ALI
gator and its tail, too, and if he bites
the enemy in front he also mercilessly
lashes his friends behind. The simple
fact is, Mr. Woolley is lone born out of
due time" he is twenty-five years, at
least, ahead of his time NOT that
think he is wrong either in standpoint
or attitude, his philosophy or his facts
, his spirit or his methods; but as mat
ter of fact, ''his soul is like star and
dwells apart; the temperance forces
, are not up with him. Temperance senti
: ment can never be ruled by a tail
though it may be dashed by one. The
leader needed must be locomotive anG
not an alligator-a man who throw;
light ahead, follows in the wake of hi:
illumination and at the same time
carries with him a trailing line of mer
/ and women linked on to him in sympa
thy, cooperation and a common life.

Philip is nowise literary.
In politics his words are chary.
I'm glad to say he never chatters
About his neighbors' private matters.
He heeds not news from east or west.
One theme commands HIS MENTAL BEST,
And this one maxim he enforces:
"BLEsT is THE MAN who drives fine horses.
He MEANT THE BLISS his own should be
And brought his steeds by land and sea,
Lodged THEM IN STABLES large and fair
And spends his hours of leisure there,
Where each ones pedigree is shown,
Although he never learned his own.
His early friends will have their say,
AS one remarked but yesterday:
"Phil arms his money, anyhow.
He's bossin in stable now.
low perhaps he's had some losses
An got job o. tendin hosses."

ticn and distribution a directory of the
ron-liquor selling grocers of Washington
