A Gallant Leader.

The new chairman of the National Pro-
bition Committee, Oliver Wayne Stewart
is but thirty-two years old. He was grad
uated from Eureka College in 1890. He
was formerly Democrat, but was active
in Prohibition efforts as early as 1885,
He was candidate for Congress on the
Prohibition ticket in 1890 and in 1898 was
chairman of both the Illinois state and
national conventions. For three years he
has been chairman of the Illinois State
committee, making a marvellous record in
the field as a speaker, organizer and
money raiser. Mr.. Stewart is a preacher
of the Christian or Disciples church, his
last pastorate being at Mackinaw, Ill. In
1897 he was invited to become pastor Of
several Of the largest churches in that de-
nomination, but declined them on the
ground that it was his duty to continue
in Prohibition work. In the Christian En-
deavor movement he has been active, and
for two years served as president of the
Illinois Christian Endeavor Union.
