FIGHTING WHISKY.
Bloomfield in Throes of War on the
Saloons.

Bloomfield, uJne II. Especial (-H.
H. Abrams, superintendent of the An
ti-Saloon league of Iowa, is spending
several days in this city, where he was
called last week to assist in the fight
which is now on between the better
element" and the liquor dealers Alb.
rams lectured at the M. E. church on
Saturday evening, delivered an ad-
dress at the court house Sunday after
noon and assisted at the mass meet
ing on Monday evening. On Monday
morning the total amount raised by
subscription for the purpose of carry
ing on the warfare amounted to $3.50
and as the soliciting is still going on
the sum will no doubt be greatly in
Potter, pastor of the M. E. church be-
gan agitating the liquor question from
the pulpit, preaching red hot sermons
to large and greatly interested con-
gregation with the result of awaken
Ing our citizens from the lethargy into
which they had fallen, and arousing
new energy and willingness to assist
in clearing the city of the whisky
joints, boot-legging and all forms of
liquor traffic. Shortly after Rev. Pot
ter's first sermon on the liquor ques-
ton the Stevens would-be murder af-
fair occurred which added fuel to the
flame and melted the better element
to greater efforts and called forth
many offers of assistance in the work
which Rev. Potter is now carrying on.
In short talk given by the pastor at
the M. e. church Sunday morning pre-
ceding the sermon he declared that
from this time forth a fair and open
fight would be made against every
known whisky joint and drug store in
the city, where liquor is sold for other
than medicinal purposes. A petition
is being circulated in the county petit
tioning the borad of supervisors to
grant license for saloons during the
coming year. 1t will not be presented
until the next meeting of the board
when it is feared that enough sigma
lures will be secured to insure its
adoption. The city is greatly aroused
at the present situation and the sa.
loon men, druggists and joint conduc-
tors are prepared to make a hard
fight against the better element who
are now thoroughly aroused and in
tend to clear the city at all costs.
