Preachers and Other Anti.Liquor
Men Called Before a Court
They Criticised.
SEQUEL OF A TEEToTAL CRUSADE
the Pulpit and Elsewhere of
the Jurist's Position.

Denver, Colo, June 19.-Judge p.
L. Palmer, of the district court. yester-
day cited Rev. w. II. Talmage. state
superintendent of the Anti-Saloon
League; Rev. NJ. y. RAIDER, pastor OF
GHace NJ. L. church, and w. ID. Wyn-
koop. secretary of the local Christian
EndeavOr society, to appear in his
court to answer to the charge of con-
tempt on certain statements made in
Denver pulpits and elsewhere regard
ing the courts action in cases involv-
ing the rights of salOonkeepers to sell
liquor to women and of restaurants to
serve liquor on Sunday.
Why RAIDER Was on the List.
Rev. Mr.. RAIDER is cited for contempt
on account of having made the follow
ing statement from his pulpit: '-The
saloon men prevailed upon Judge
Palmer two weeks ago TO grant an in
junction against the enforcement of
the law. I've got respect for our
courts, as such. but when the district
judge prostitutes the bench to such
low ends, l confess / am not only
astounded but deeply grieved. Who
ever heard of such a procedure? The
idea of our courts cOnniving with the
lawbreakerSl 1t is high time to call Il
halt. l suppose we will soon be in
formed that n judge viii grant in
functions against the enforcement of
the laws against ....eves and sluggers
and murderers"
Talmage's Blast at the Judge.
The information against Talmage
says that in an Interview he declared
in substance: THAT the said Peter l..
Palmer was under the control and in
fluence the saloon men of the city of
Denver, and that the said iniunctionS
were issued by him at their behest,
and that it would be worth while for
the saloon men TO pay Judge Palmer
200 TO make the injunction per-
manent. but that if il We're accom-
plished it would result in n great up
heaval of the Christian people of Den
YER Talmage is also said to have
stated In a letter sent in duplicate To
Il majority of the Denver ministers
that the saloon men have i'm their
power the ShCriff'S office. the district
attorney. one member of the fire and
police board, Mr.. Bottom. and one dis
trict Judge"
wynkoOp's Advice to Endeavorers.
WynkOOp * cited in consequence of
his having issued the following advice
to members of the Christian Endcavor
society: Dear EndeaVOTeTS-It is de-
sired that at the meeting of your Chris
tian Endeavor society Sunday night
the president state the fact that Judge
Palmer has issued a temporary iniunc-
tiOn; he will attempt TO permit the sa-
looms to reopen all over the city Sun
days unless the better class of the peO-
pie impress him that he shall not do
so. Ask all present who are in favor
of the saloons closing Sundays to raise
their hands; all who will attend Judge
Palmcr'S court at 10 a. IN. Monday,
June 10. and see that he gives fair
play TO the Christians of Denver.
