Or. Eaton requests his friends to push
the correction of the report that he said
OF the late Senator Goebel-"I'm sorry

Several of the Glendeane correspond
ent's friends here haYe expressed aston
ishment at his unkind remark OF our
Governor-elect. We have appreciated
him as the instructor OF our children and
never thought of him as politician, and
if he had held out in his good resolve TO
"bite his lips and stand silent, as he had
done hundreds Of times in the past, would
his firm Republican friends love him
less for doing 30 again? Once for all, we
think an apology to hisI6rm Republican
friends and our Governor-elect would be
in order
We rejoice to learn that the temper
ance cause is gaining, not only in this
county but in other parts of the state
and United States as well. The word is
going out all over the land and the moral
forces are being organized, and we look
forward to no distant day when the legal
voters of the land will cay that the rum
traffic must go. This nation has been
called Christian nation, but never I'M
til the "army canteen" is abolished and
the evils OF intemperance put from
among us can we fully endorse the phrase
Christian nation" When the leaders
endorse the temperance movement then
our nation may justly be called Chris

There are women who feel something
like grudge against the children, who,
one after another rob their mother Of her

Nature and pay the debt grudgingly.
Yet in Natures plan every childeis a

the children that steal the mothers
