zens dare not swear allegience to a
foreign prince, potenate or sovereign,
ty. And that the church and state
are separate. But let me call your at
tention to the great and infallible
truth, that nation cannot be any
greater than the individuals who COM
pose that nation. If those lives are
bound by sinful and unclean habits,
the nation will SAVIOR of them and be-
come like them. True liberty Is one
of the elements of strong manhood.
Study well this great principle and let
each one ask himself the question to-
night, Am / a free MANI
Three, patriotism. Love Of ones
country and loyalty to her institu-
tions. We have no room for traitors.
We look upon them as poisonous vip-
ers. The maintenance of our institu.
tions is essential to the permency Of
our nation. Let me ask. have you
studied well this great principle Of
patriotism? Do you maintain the
great institutions of this mighty ma
tion? | sometimes wonder IL much Of
our so-called patriotism is naught but
sounding brass and unkling cymbal.
desire to call your attention to the
greatest institution of this republic,
the upon which rests our future Sc
curity and the one which was main
tained by our Pilgrim Fathers with
vigilence and prayer, the Christian
Sabbath. am afraid that we will
sound our own death knell, unless we
are strong and show ourselves men In
rhe observance of the Christian Sab.
bath and in helping to maintain its
sanctity and purpose We need not go
outside of our own community on tho
Sabbath, with the sheriff sitting in his
home allowing men to have no regard
for Gods day, to engage in playing
football for revenue only. AS men we
ought to cry out against such desecra-
ton and, show that we expect our Of
ilcials to do their duty.
Again, is 1t not true, has it not be-
come common thing that many Of
our places of business within our city
almost under the shadow of the city
hall and police station are runnin
full blast on the Lords Day? Go
with me and / will show you soda
fountains, ice cream and candy
parlors, meat shops. bakeries, tobacco
stores and news stands running fu'
blast. People are always saying.
why don't you preachers put a stop
TO this business?" Let me ask why
don't men who are elected to Office
fulfill their vows and show them
selves men of strength and courage
Men Of the Jr. o. U. A. NJ, do you
advocate loyalty to the institutions OF
this great commonwealth? Do yor
believe the Christian sabbath to bo
enc Of those institutions? Then in
The name OF Gcd of this great nation,
help show your LOYALTY by helping t.
maintain that which Is vital to our
existence
Another great principle that
would Ike TO add TO the list alread'
InronticncdL and which stands above
everything else as an essential to true
strength Is on undisturbed faith in
God and His word. I am Glad thai
Won stand for tho old book, but there
is personal relationship that eacl
one sustains to God and must not bo
neglected. Mere belief in the bible
viii not save mans soul. Witho'
faith II is impossible to n'ease Cod
We must give up sin and live for Him
in order TO enjoy his presence."

hibit the former but legalize the IL
quor seller by tax and license laws
and thus give him a legal right to deal
for beverage purposes in the poison of
Intoxicating liquors.
1t would seem rom the daily re-
ports in the newspapers that fully
two-thirds of our crime and murders
are said to be caused by the liquor
traffic, that from financial considera-
tions alone. to say nothing OF the
crime, this traffic produces, we would
as one man oppose the further legal
i7ation of the liquor traffic for bever-
age purposes and close up every rum
shop in the state and nation.
1t has been shown time and again
that where one dollar is taken from
the saloon in the form of tax Oh IL
cense. the state and the nation are
taxed from SIS to $1S to take care Of
the pampers and punish the crime that
the legalized liquor traffic produces.
AS good citizens of every name, sect
and party, we should oppose all men
who cater to the liquor traffic and are
constantly courting the saloon vote
This is quite a safe rule to go by
no man can serve two masters. A
man that caters to the rum power and
is afraid to utter q word against the
saloon is not the man to have the
support of any Christian voter, no diff
ference what political party he may
belong to.
1t Is quite certain that all the
churches have condemned the legal
ization Of the liquor traffic for bever-
age purposes" and therefore no Chris
tian voter should support any man to
any Office II he upholds the legaliza-
tion OF this traffic. upon any terms or
at any price.
The foundation of the saloon lies in
the tax and license laws that have
been enacted for the purpose of giving
the saloon and liquor traffic in gener-
al a legal existence. This ruinous
policy has ben upheld by both the
dominant parties the past forty years.
Much as these parties have differed up
on tariff free trade and the
money question, and banks, they
have been and are today q
unit in upholding tax and license
laws for the liquor traffic, and there
fore all who are opposed to the saloon
shoild oppose these political parties at
the ballotbox. Just as long as any po-
litical party is kept in power that up-
holds the legalization of the liquor
traffic, just that long the curse of the
saloon will remain in our midst. and
its work of ruin and degradation be
felt.
IT either of the old political parties
will reorganize and declare against all
forms OF legalization for the liquor
trafic. then every temperance voter
and loyal citizen should support such

d. L. Evans made hard fight
to nominate John S. Barrett for
secretary OF state. He had a
caucus OF the five southeastern
counties OF the state and organized
in Barrett's interest. But that
could not be done until after the
governorship was disposed OF, and
it was then too late to head Bassett
off though the latter was given such
a close race that it must have dis
turbed his usual equanimity.

Hunt Gets Nomination for
Governor.
WEAK TICKET NAMED
Ticket Named is Weak--Pops Are
ignorea--Not One Being
on the Ticket.

The State Democratic conventio.
finished its duties Friday and Coy
Hunt won out against the combines
efforts Of his opponents and thos
who pleaded against any actor
tending to widening OF the breacf
in the party.
The committee on resolutions
had a hard time in bringing forth
a platform, owing, it was alleged
to their ammunition having been
stolen by the republicans, and
aside from their affirmation OF the
Kanses City platform it contained
nothing notable.
The republicans Of the state see
much comfort in the ticket nomi-
mated, for it is not only weak in its
personnel, but it is gotten up not
only without reference to geopraph-
ical considerations, but without
any consideration to its allies OF
two years ago. There is not
single populist on the ticket, and
the only one that was nominated
was turned down cold.
But one place was granted on
the ticket to the southeastern
counties. This was Coltman of
Binghom for treasurer whose nomi-
nation was reward for tie
delegation switching to Hunt,
reason that will have an overpower-
ing influence against the ticket in
the counties affected.
There was a great fight on the
floor Of the convention against the
nomination Of Hunt or Martin as
we'll should be, on account of the
BAD record made by the present 5
administration and the delegates
'pposing those factions did not Il
lesitate expressing themselves, and .
ii plain words informed the dele '
ates OF the convention of these
acts, but were not needed, but will o
