He said In part:

and apt illustration by the speaker.
He said tn part:
Liberty. in its broadest sense. is
freedom from all restraint. There IS
no absolute liberty In civilization.
The nearest approach to perfect
liberty is seen in the life Of the North
American Indian In his savage state.
Even in this state Of savagery there
was the restraint of unwritten laws
which must be obeyed. Then the
freedom Of liberty, Of which we boast
in the United States Is freedom TN
der the restraint Of law. No man has
a right to do anything which endangers
the person, or welfare and peace Of
some one else. To illustrate: A
prominent citizen Of Brinkley receives
word that his son Is seriously sick OF
small pox and is in sore need Of hts
mothers care, so announces he Is
coming home and asks to be met at
the train. The father and mother
want him TO come. They have the
right to have him near them. even in
their home, to minister to him.
But the mayor hears Of It and forbids
the man coming. And should the
Mayor not act, the citizens them
selves have the right to rise up and
say he shall not come. because 1t will
expose their sons and families to dam
ger. The personal rights Of the father
and mother of the sick boy must be
denied by law for the common good
Of the community. So it is with the
liquor question. The socalied person
al liberty Of the whiskey advocate
must be denied by law, II our sons
and daughters are properly protected"
Somebody's sons must be made
drunkards If the saloon is allowed to
exist. Have you son whom you
wish to be drunkard3"
The congregation Of perhaps 300
was asked if they approved the plan Of
the |. C. T. Federation and would like
to see the canvass made in Monroe
county to stand up. All voted except
perhaps less than half dozen.

There never was more truth con-

chased by the people Of this state
enough fruit trees to have made con

think the soil or the climate or his
knowledge of fruit growing were at
fault, when if the trouble was placed
where it belonged, 'the talkative
fruit tree agent is to blame for it

he sells anything to suit the people,
whether his nursery has it or not; he
misrep1 esents all he says and does and
after it is too late and the purchasers

been swindled, they only have their
experience for their trouble and ex-
