Rev. A. 1. Morse,

In 1892 Mr.. Morse was commission.
ed by the Gospel Temperance League
organized by d. l.. Moody to repre-
sent the work in any Of the States
or Territories. And now as Field Sec
retary and National Lecturer Of the
the Gospel Temperance Extension
movement and aided by the thrilling
book entitled, Lost and Rescued,
he is endeavoring to enlist 100, 900
workers in the cause and 1000, 900
signers to the pledge. In addition to
a rich-toned voice, and a pleasing de-
livery, he uses 1000 square feet of
charts, cartoons and varied original
Illustrations, which doubles his effec-
tive power over an audience; so that.
while the words which are spoken con.
vey tremendous thoughts and stirring
truths, as they fall upon the ear. the
eye beholds the vivid illustrations. and
the audience oscillates between laugh.
ter and tears, and they go away to
think and never forget.-Daily Senti
mel, Red Bluff, Calf.

The Vinita Chieftain says: The
people OF Indian Territory have pre-
ferences as to the kind of government
given them, but will welcome anything
like self-government whether il be
statehood or a territorial form. One
great state would be far preferable to
a state and territory, and eventually
we will be one state, but give us a
chance to govern ourselves on most
any terms and our condition VIII Le
bettered.
