The Saloon.

The battle cry of the temperance
host is, "rhe saloon must CO." This
is a cry that comes from the bleeding
heart of many a drunkard's wife. 1t
is the tender appeal that comes from
the innocent life of The drunkard's
child. Yet how seldom is this cry
heard by even the ministers of the
gospel. Louisville, KY, is one OF the
worst whisky soaked cities in the
world. The pulpit and press seem to
concede the fact that nothing can be
done in this city to stay the current of
drunkenness. There seems to be no
united effort to wipe out the curses
inflicted by King Alcohol.
How long, oh! how long will the
city pulpit preach ethics, philosophy,
poetry and art, while tie demon of
drink sticks his poisonous head above
the ground and invites some one to
knock it off?
Canada deserves Congratulations
from the christian world on, account
of the bold action which she has
taken in dePosing King Alcohol
The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union is reform which needs
and deserves our earnest help.

Paris, Sept. 27.-While the reception
accorded the United States peace COM
mission here is all that could be de-
sired, and while the French foreign
office has taken great pains to treat
the American and Spanish commits
sioners in precisely the same manner,
ii must be admitted that the general
atmosphere of Paris, especially the dip
lomatic atmosphere, does not incline
toward America. 1t is the general i'm
preston here that the American COM
missioners have instructions to pro-
vide for the retention of Manila and
the Island of Luzon, land for a COM
mission Ito pretend to negotiate is a
farce" said a prominent diplomat. He
continued: America will put herself,
dramatically, in the wrong, when she
exceeds the provisions of the protocol
which both nations signed. ] know
the Spaniards have come prepared to
make concessions, but if the Ameri-
cans instructions are of an uncom-
promising nature, which is generally
believed here to be the case, you can
rest assured that the work of the COM
mission will be futile. The Spaniards
will retire and America will at least
have to threaten a resumption of hos
tilities before she will gain her point"
The French newspapers, beyond an

sions, make no comment upon the mat
