appears that Lunenburg and Lancaster
do not consider this vote binding. and
each will present a candidate, so that
the names of j. l.. Harrington of Lu-

Not Man Who Votes For License.

Grafton, Oct lion account of re-
pairs being necessary to the heating
apparatus of the Congregational
church, the members of that society
held a union meeting with the Baptist
Society, at the latters building, last
evening. The feature of the evening
was the report of the delegates who at
tended the temperance congress in Bos-
ton, last week, and their reports led
to the making of more forcible state
ments against license in Grafton than
nave been made for long while
rev. George l.. Hubbard spoke on the
results of rum in general, and in con-
nection referred to the boys of 81 and
SO, repeating the oft-told story of Por-
to Rico rum and its ravages. In clos
ing his remarks, ne dropped the fol-
lowing question for the citizens of the
United States to answer: when war
opened with Spain, we were able to
send forth victorious army Are we
able to meet the liquor enemy and win
for the side of sobriety truth and
righteousness? ?"
Rev. B. F. ROBBIE set forth the defini-
ton of patriot" by saying: "A patriot
is not a man who can fight for his
country and vote for license Such a
man IS an enemy to the principle of
the government under which he lives
and does far more damage than good. .
AT the close Rev B. S. Morse made
an earnest plea for the formation of a
working temperance organization in
GRAFTON and added that it is never too
early to begin the work. although it
may pc TOO late to accomplish the de-
sired results the coming year.
