SIOUX CITY SALOON WAR.
Attitude of Temperance Forces Put
Saloon Men on Defensive.

Saloon Men on Defensive.
Sioux City.-The Ministerial asso-
citation has taken up the cudgel in
support of Police Matron Thurston,
who, in her recent crusade against
cheap dances and saloon wine rooms,
met with Indifference and even open
opposition on the part of the police.
The ministers unanimously adopted
a statement approving of the work
OF Mrs. Thurston and roundly roasted
the city administration.
Among other things the statement
says: we deprecate the apparent
disposition on the part our city gov
eminent to exempt from law keep
ing certain classes and blindly to
pass the sinks of iniquity and en-
forcement of law upon men and wo-
men who revel in vice"
Rev. Dr.. Waterman, pastor of the
First Congregational church, is the
instigator of the resolutions and
they were signed by Rev. S. R. Beat
ty, pastor of the First Methodist
Episcopal; Rev. DR.. S. Willis Nc
Fadden, pastor of the First Presby-
leFldu cHufcn, anu tne Olner mem-
bers of the committee
Meantime the saloonkeepers do
not propose to stand idly by while
the antisaloon league secures in
functions against their establish
ments. For some time the liquor
men have offered little resistance to
actions that have been brought
against them under the Martin law,
but the filing of suits against nearly
one-half of the saloon men of the city
by Rev. H. H. Sawyer, superintendent
of the anti-saloon league, with Col.
A. D. Collier as attorney, has aroused
the saloon men and they have en-
ployed T. S. Bevington to make a
fight for them. They say they have
the support of the business element
of Sioux City in the stand they have
taken against the anti-saloon league.

A FRIEND.

A harbor of refuge from the stormy
waves Of adversely.
A balancing pole to him who walks
across the tight rope Of life.
A watch which beats true for, all
time and never runs down.
A permanent fertilization when ones
affairs are in a state of siege.
The first person who comes in when
the whole world has gone out.
One who loves the truth and you and
will tell the truth in spite of you.
The triple alliance of the three great
powers-loye, sympathy and help
One who multiplies joys, divides
griefs and whose honesty is inviolabfe.
A jewel whose luster the strong
acids Of poverty and misfortune can
not dim.
One who combines for you alike the
pleasures and benefits Of society and
solitude.
A bank of credit ON which we can
draw supplies OF confidence. counsel,
sympathy, help and love.
One who considers my need before
my deservings. -London Tit-Bits' Prize
