PITH. OF THE PRESS.

Defender: If any president nullifies
a law Of congress, beat him at the
next election.
Patriot-Phalanx: Free lunch in a
saloon is to poor man what the
cheese in trap is to a mouse.
National Advocate: The canteen is
a government recommendation to
drink. It is so interpreted by soldiers.
Woman's Journal: The Woman Suf-
frage Associations may now discuss
the question, "Are the men Of Ken
lucky too emotional to take part in
politics?"
Ohio Herald: If man will forsake
the Prohibition party for either sill
yer or gold, why not keep saloon for
silver or gold? It means damnation to
thousands in either case.
Cumberland Presbyterian: The
saloon exists because the preach
ers and churches and other friends Of
temperance will not come together
and stay together and give fight to-
gether.
New Voice: II there are political
parties in which outspoken and manly
hostility to this bad business shuts uI
all hope Of promotion, and bars the
way to public honors and emoluments
surely such q party can furnish nc
consistent political home to a Meth.
odist voter. Il a.

They Pay as They Vote.

Our acknowledgment Of recent
pledges to the state work is again
crowded out. II our workers keep it
up at this rate, we are in doubt how
soon we can catch up with them. We
are glad and proud to state that the
State Fund is very near to the $4,000
mark, if it has not already reached it.
OF course it is being expended every
day, but we are securing large
amount of practical, telling work. The
first subscriptions were made October
10th. We struck for $4,000 within a
year. Encouraged by its great sue
cess, the present aim Of the Commit
tee is to reach that amount by the
date of the national convention. Sec
rotary Calderwood, whose address can
always be found at the head of this
department, will be glad to receive
word from you as to how much per
month the Committee may depend
upon you for the year, beginning now.

see at to include the liquor traffic. We
believe that this regret is shared by
large numbers of faithful members Of
the Methodist and other churches.
We are so accustomed to the saloon,
lit has so become part of the warp
and wool of our national life, that we
can hardly realize to what an extent
this diabolica1 institution, while lay
ling it's baleful hand on business, mem
acing the home, and corrupting civic
life, also binders the church in her
work for humanity. Then, too, her
failure to measure up to her own
standards Of opposition to the saloon
have weakened her in the estimation
of large numbers.

TIT FOR TAT.

The Prohib candidate for Governor
is Rev. B. B. Hangar, Lutheran
minister of Fergus Falls. He'll never
resign his ministry to don the CUB
ernatorial harness.-Both Sides, saloon
paper.
He won't need to. He will discharge
his gubernatorial duties in a man
ner entirely in harmony with his
ministerial character.
Drink, the only terrible enemy
whom England has to fear.-Prince
Leopold.
Look out there, Leopold, or they'll
call you narrow.
Are our Bishops and the combined
churches of this country wholly
without influence at the White House?
Christian Outlook.
Certainly not. Didn't lot Of them
get an "invite" to partake of the
Presidents gingerbread few weeks
ago? OF course, when It comes to the
enforcement OF the anti-Hquor legis-
lation, Bishops and other churchmen
haven't SO much OF pull, because
those of them who are Republicans
vote the ticket anyway. See?
What do the Christian people think
of President on such friendly terms
with one of the biggest distillers in
the United ates?-Patriot Phalanx.
Call us up on the morning OF Mo-
vember Z, and we will give you our
answer.

Bishop J0yce's Address.

Minnesota Prohibitionists were glad
to welcome Bishop Joyce to their
State Convention. We regret to say,
however, that his speech was a sad
disappointment to many Of his adj
mirers. We happen to know that he
votes the Prohibition ticket and pro-
poses to. He missed splendid oppor-
tunity, though, to cheer struggling
army, fighting heroic fight, when he
failed to declare his political affilia-
lions. It was the convention Of po-
litical party, assembled to put it's tick
ct in the field against the saloon for
the last time during this century. He
told the assembled Prohibitionists that
he had come to tell them on which
side he was. He failed to do 80. He
did not need to tell them what he
thought Of the saloon, or what he
thought ought to be done with
it. On that question they knew
he was in accord with his
church, than which no organ
ization, not even the Prohibition party,
has spoken more plainly. What they
wanted to hear, what the State needed
to know, was whether he proposed to
vote with a party which represents
his views, and is in harmony with the
declarations of his church, or with one
Of the parties, which, when in power,
Keep the saloon in the saddle.
In what we have said, we are not
calling in question either the Bishops
sincerity or courage. His character is
above reproach. His vote is clean. We
think he came to the convention with
the double purpose of cheering us and
defending the church. He succeeded
in neither attempt. We believe his
error was due to false view Of the
political rights and duties Of the min
istry and bishopric, view which led
him to bury his citizenship for the
hour in his bishopric. This Is an error
which is closing the mouths, and prac-
tically DISTINGUISHING, thousands OF
Christian ministers. A man need be,
should be, no less citizen, because
he is bishop or a minister.

Slick Politician Wsnted.

twenty-five representative Mime
apolis Republicans met lately to pick
out their man for mayor. Although
the city election does not take place
until Fall, they thought it necessary
to get at it thus early in view of GER
tain dangers which threaten the
party there. After full discussion Of
the qualifications of various persons,
there was quite general agreement
that Robert Pratt, who is completing
his second term, was the right man.
He has several strong points as can
didate. One Of them was brought out
by speaker who said that Mr.. Pratt
was the only man who could be put
forward who had the happy faculty Of
SO harmonizing the opposing elements
in the party that. he could control
both the saloon vote and the church
vote. Minneapolis is not the only
city where this sort of man is cho-
sen for this sort of work. Especially
where and when the Prohibition party
is strong and growing, is such man
in demand. For in such cases the
party leaders realize that they must
put up good man" or be swamped
by the better element. At the same
time his character must not be so pro-
nounced as to drive away the saloon
vote. If churchmen had more respect
for themselves and were not SO gull
BILE. If they were as careful that their
ballots should represent protection OF
their interests as are the saloonists,
it would not be so easy to find slick
politician who could drive the church
land the saloon tandem to the polls, as
is SO often the case. But the day il
coming when the church will put 9
higher price upon her ballot. When
it comes, the death Of the saloon II

The slums of every city are but ma

It will be remembered that some
body reported that Bishop Ninde Of
the M. e. church had stated that Bish-
op Walden had informed him that
President Mckinley had told him
that he did not drink wine at the Chi
cago auditorium banquet. A Metho-
dist minister, who is member-elect

by presenting one or more copies Of

Mr. Money, OF Mississippi. declared
MS belief that ii the production of gold

as 1t had increased in the last five there
would be demand for the demonetiza-
ton of gold and the demonstration of
silver. Advertlng to the Introduction of
the FINANCE Committees amendment
relating TO the continued efforts IN
favor of international bimetnllism. Mr..
Money said
do not know where the demand
Tor the adoption of this bimetallic
amendment came from. Has the chair
man of the Finance Committee had
MS ear to the ground and heard the
runiblings in the West against the
pending bill. or has 1t again been pro
posed 20 delude the people in view of
.he tact that this is a Presidential
campaign year? The fact is the Re-
publican party Is absolutely faithless
upon this money question. That Is
perfectly evident"
In conclusion, Mr.. Money said he
never had n more sincere conviction
that no greater calamity could come
upon the people than failure to re-
store to the people the money of the
constitution.
MAY GOD HELP THE RIGHT.
This question is to be solved by the
money power of the wsrfl.' said he.
