WOULD NOT
UPROOT SALOONS
Practical Sermon Delivered by Rev.
Thos. Barker Who Takes Broad
View OF Prohibition

Taking as his text the parable of
the tares, Rev. Thos. Barker OF the Goa
gregational Church Sunday evening
delivered one of the most common
sence temperance sermons ever de-
livered in Ladysmith Mr.. Barker
has been very active i'm the regula-
tion Of saloons in Lady smith and
his views n this question are
doubtless of interest to all.
While he declared that absolute
prohibition is coming and that he
expects to live to see every licensed
saloon closed in the United States,
he said that the sudden uprooting
OF this long establishment institu-
ton would prove as disastrous as
would have been the gathering OF
the tares in the parable. It must be
an evolutionary rather than revolu-
tiOnary movement. Much prepar-
alton is necessary. Were every sa-
loon wiped out of the United States
today, the work would not be half
done.
The saloon is, to q great extent,
the Outgrowth of that natural de-
sire among men for social fellowship,
and whenever it is abolished some
substitute must be supplied. The
effects Of drink upon the human sys-
tenn are now being taught in our
public schools and the rising genera
ton will not contain so large
percentage of drunkards as the pres
ent one.
Much energy is now being wasted
by well-meaning people, being di-
rected in a negative way-toward
the destruction of the tares, rather
then toward the cultivation Of the
grain. Without any drinkers, there
will he no saloons. The campaign of
education along moral, physical and
economic lines must be continued
and the day is not far distant when
America will be a "dry" nation.

RUsK CoUNTY's NEW POOR FARM
N. WISCONSIN DEVELOPMENT ASSN
Organic alton Completed and Active
Work Begun

After considerable preliminary
skirmishng and delays that were
at times discouraging, the North
! Wisconsin development Association
has +nally perfected its organization,
completed plans, and will in q few
weeks be actively in the field. The
movement starts under favorable au-
spices and with the spirit of unanim-
ity and enthusiasm which prevails in
the cre aIiZa tx u, material results
can be relied on.
The first meeting OF the board OF
directors was held at Ashland Fri
day, Nov. 29th; officers were elected,
and a detailed program of work
mapped out. The following officers
were chosen Pres, d. NJ. Maxey,
Washburn; Vice Pres E. S Shep-
herd of Rhinelander; Sec. ID. w. Ma
loney, Glen Flora; Treas, W. G. Fon-
dyce, Butternut.
1t was decided to adopt the rec
Ommendation of the Convention
held at Hay ward Nov. 7th, and send
out a lecturer equipped with a ster-
eOpticon and views illustrating the
agricultural and industrial resonr-
ces of the counties represented in the
Association. Exhibits Of grasses
and grains will also be carried, and
literature will be distributed des-
cribing these counties. The secre-
tary will be sent out in this work,
and will be furnished competant
assistant, the assistant b eing not
yet secured.
The Commissioners of Immigra-
ton, A. ID. Campbell, was present at
the meeting and assured the direc-
tors that the denaa~& ut wonld act
lively cooperate in the work mapped
out. This cooperation will be of i'm
meDse value to the organizations, and
at the same time the Development
Association will enable the Board of
immigration to extend its sphere OF
usefulness.
The field to be covered by the
lecturer will embrace the counties
adjacent to Lake Michigan, south OF
Green Bay, and from there he will
proceed into northern Illinois. This
is q thickly populated S &c o n,
where dairying is a leading industry,
and includes many large towns,
where the money stringency has
caused hundreds of laboring men to
turn their thoughts toward the
farm. 1t is section which should
yield fruitful results.
The secretary will proceed at
once to secure the necessary outfit,
literature, ETC., and the active work
" ill begin January 1st.
AS there are some counties not yet
represented in the Association in
which sentiment favorable to joining
has been expressed, it was decided to
allow such counties to join at any
time before the lecturer is put in the
field. Counties SO joining will be
accorded all of the privileges of the
present members. With the force of
the organization behind the move
ment, supplemented by the active
assistance of the Commissioner OF
Immigration, no Northern Wiscon-
sin county can afford to remain out
side.
