temperance Nofes.

The Bismarck Tribune remarks as
follows: "The cause Of temperance is
receiving very substantial encourage
ment in the business world to-day.
The time is not far distant when the
drinking man, especially the one who
drinks to excess, win find it impos-
sible to secure a sitnltlon. = = =
The railroad and transportation COM
panies have already issued edicts
against the drinking of spiritoous
liquors on the part Of their employees,
either on duty or off duty, and the
Chicago & Northwestern and some
other roads have even placed the use
of tobacco under the ban. The young
men who will obtain and hold the best
positions in the business world here
after will be those who deny the cup
those oshun the saloon and the COM
panionship of dissolute characters. :"
1t also says: ''Fhe employer of labor
is doing more in the way of true re-
form-is performing a greater service
for mankind-than the prohibition
theorist.
To make drunkenness a disgrace
rather than crime. is a more
practical means of reform than en-
forcement of all the laws Furnishing
the sale of liquors.
All honor to the business concerns
who have closed their doors against the
use and sale of intoxicants. They
exert a potent power in this conflict
with the casks. But still more honor
to the prohibition theorists who have
heroically blazed the way and have
labored increasingly for long years,
for the triumph of those principles of
justice and temperance which the
business world now recognizes and is
putting into practice today. This is
one of the objects for which the said
''theorist'' have so valiantly with
stood the scorn and opposition of an
unbelieving world for 10 these many
years. 1t is the legitimate result of
the sentiment created by the toll of
the so-called temperance "theorist."
Every great movement has for its
foundation theory. When the
agitation of these theorists began
there was no temperance sentiment
whatever, as regards the use of in
toxicants. Nowhere was it restric ted
even the pulpit employed it's agency in
giving the Gospel message. The busi-
ness world and the social world and
the moral world were alike oblivious
to it's degrading and demoralizing eff
fects.
1t would seem that prohibition is no
less effective embodied in the law
than to have it made an active
principle in business life. The two
are correllative. They have the same
object in view. To Danish the de-
structive effects of intoxicants, the
prohibition theorist" has always
held that drunkenness was both "dis-
grace" and a crime, against society.
With a part of this temperance
sermonette, the writer is in full ac-
cord, with the other part we beg leave
to differ with due respect for the
Tribune's opinion.
Another. striking proof of the pro-
gress of the temperance cause is given
in the announcement that Secretary
of War Root directed that Captain
Harry E. Smith of the Coast Artillery,
on duty at Fort McHenry, Md, be
tried by court martial for drunkenness.
Secretary Root also administered a

A Reliable Daily Paper.

The Pittsburg Times is the only
daily newspaper in that city which
does not have d Sunday edition. The
Times puts all its energies and money
into publishing the best newspaper
there six days out of the week. Its
people believe in the Biblical and hui
name idea that men and newspapers
should have one days rest in seven.
The Times shows the results of this
in sending out vigorous paper. Ac-
curacy aud brevity are its watchwords
Its editorial page is the work OF sever
al specialists and is one that COM
mends itself in its discussion of cur
rent topics To- the children of the
public schools, as we'll as their faith
ers, mothers, teachers and all who
read and think. In politics its policy
is Republican, giving all the news of
all parties as we'll. Its theatrical
review is a critical review. The box
e'fice has no influence over it. People
have become accustomed to read
what the Times says of plays more
than the same Department. all other
Pittsburg papers combined The
Times critieises when the criticism,
is of benefit to its readers, whether il
happens to benefit the theatrical man
ager or not. The sporting page is in
charge of an expert, and cream, not
blue milk, is served in its columns.
The Times also pays particular atten'
tiun to church matters, and its
church news is at once reliable and

out to visit the sick in company with
Father Sullivan. His sleigh was over

Sunday evenings during the remainder

Father Fox made his customary trip
to Southbury ON Sunday. From W. H.

the path and the journey was an ex-
ceedingly difficult one. Only thre e

church, as it was thought Father Fox
would not be able to make the journey.
Father Fox said mass at ST Roses
church on Sunday morning.
