An Enthusiastic TEMPERANCE Rally

In response to the call for a meet
lpg' Issued last Thursday bv the Anti.
saloon League Club, a large and en-.
tnuslastic audience assembled at the
congregational church Thursday ev.
enlng and were instructed and enter.
tanned by speeches, recitations and
excellent music.
Dr. cooper was the first speaker.
he showed that the town had hoo,
ana could again be run without the
money received from the saloons, and
since the only argument ever offered
Tor keeping the saloons in town, was
the monetary one, there now remained
not even that as an argument.
Rev. Jas. Ellis, the next speaker
showed that even though the saloons
pay a high license, the money in re-
aIlty is contributed by the needy wo-
men and children of the land, who are
deprived of the necessities of life, in
order to satisfy the appetite of the
husband and father.
Rev. A. B. WEIGH followed with the
statement that the saloon can no more
exist without the raw material from
winch To make drunkards, than can
the cotton mills exist without the raw
material with which to make their
product.
he very pertinently put the question
10 parents in Welsh: care you will
ing to furnish the raw material for
the dram shop? If not why vote that
your neighbor should do so.
lev Paul Leeds followed with two
Scr'ptural texts. He showedthe power

Railroad earnings received yesterday presented
in almost every instance encouraging gains over
the corresponding period a year ago. and re-
ports received from the commercial agencies
suggested the development of volume of traffic
this summer heavier than is customary in the
so-called dull months Of the year. Gross and
net returns for the month of April now coming
to hand are unusually heavy. except in the case
of the anthracite coal roads. which were affected
by the suspension of mining in that month. one
Of the best reports received that of the
Minneapolis. ST. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie which
showed an increase in gross of 46 per cent and
an increase in net of II per cent, comparison
being made with April, 1905. This company's
earnings have been phenomenal in the last ten
months and. of course, it's improv ement in
traffic receipts helps the Canadian Pacific. which
controls il, and encourages the idea that an in
