DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH
VENEZUELA SEVERED.

No Danger Of War with South AmerI-
can Observation-Disclosures OFF,
cials Regret Departure Of
Senior VeIoz.

Washington-sThe diplomatic rela-
that have existed uninterruptedly for
more than half ceutry, though in
recent years severely strained, were
completely severed Thursday.
At half-past three o'clock In the az
ternoon Senior Veloz-Goiticoa, the
Venezuelan charge d'affaires, called at
the state department by appointment
to present to Acting Secretary Bacon
notice from his government that he
was to quit his post here, closing up
the Venezuelan legation in Washing
toyn, and repair forthwith to Venez-
uela
Taking leave of Acting Secretary
Bacon and accepting the suggestion
that he communicate in writing to
Secretary Root the direction of his
government in this matter, Senior We
loz paid hasty calls upon Assistant
Secretaries Adee and Huntington VIII
son and other officials of the state de-
partmcnt who he has long and init
mately known. OF course, officially,
there was nothing for these gentlemen
to say beyond mere formalities when
made acquainted with the fact that
the Venezuelan charge had been with
drawn. But personally they did not
hesitate to express their sincere re-
greet, for Senior Veloz has come to be
very highly regarded in the diplomatic
circle Indeed it may be stated posi-
lively and from actual knowledge OF
what he has done in the years which
he has passed in Washington as a rep
resentative of Venezuela that his per-
sonality has gone far toward defer
ring the rupture.
AS to the future, it is pointed out
by officials who have followed closely
the developments in the Venezuelan
situation that there Is not the slightest
danger Of war in the immediate future,
or indeed at ALL Rather will the stu
alton resemble that following the rup-
ture Of diplomatic relations between
France and Venezuela, for instance,
where legations were closed on both
sides and all official relations ter
minated, while trade between the two
countries continued and Frenchmen
came to Venezuela and rich Venezue-
lans made their annual pilgrimages to
Paris as If nothing had occurred.

Drunkenness a National Curse

Drunkenness a National Curse.
Awake, ye drunkards, and
weep; and howl, all ye drinkers
} of wine, because of the new
wine; for II Is cut off from your
) mouth" A people given to
strong drink never can make a
strong nation.
Intemperance is nearly always
the forerunner Of national decay.
Indulgence In strong drink de-
stroys the moral stamina of a
people and makes them an easy
prey to their enemies.
The drunkard will sacrifice
everything on the altar Of his
passion. Note In the prophets
arraignment of the drunkards
of the nation the only reason
for their distress and remorse Is
the cutting off Of their supply
Of wine. The peril Of the ma
ton, the dishonoring of her
womanhood, and the enslave-
ment of the children were as
nothing In comparison to their
consuming passion for strong
drink.
The recent declaration of the
Brewers association on the vir-
tues of moderate drinking and
decrying the evils surrounding
the drink traffic would be SUBJ
timely ridiculous were II not so
dlabolicaIly insidious. "Modera-
tion." Why there Is no such
thing as moderation when It
comes to indulgence In strong
drink, as every nation has
learned to it's sorrow when the
traffic has been permitted unre-
strained operation. From the
ranks of the boosted moderate
drinkers are constantly being re-
cruited the despised wrecks Of
the army Of drunkards. Drunk
ards are not always made in a
generation. The seed sown by
the moderate drinker may not
bring forth It's fruitage Of ruin
through strong drink until the
third or fourth generation, but
bring forth It's fruitage II does,
and the moderation of the father
or grandfather gives place to the
unchecked passion Of the child.
Therefore, also now, saith
the Lord, turn ye ever to me
with all your heart, and with
fasting, and with weeping, and
with mournlng; and rend your
heart, and not your garments,
and turn unto the Lord your
God; for he 10 gracious and mer-
ciful, slow to anger, and Of great
kindness, and repenteth him Of
evil" The life line Of mercy and

and be saved. Surely our God
does not desire the death Of the
wicked, but would have all men
come unto q knowledge Of the
truth and be saved.

Portland, Me.-Serious forest fires

by the flames. The woods are dry

check the fires seem fruitless.

sciously perhaps the life moves for
ward to the point where the peculiar
mission to which the life Is to be
called suddenly opens up. Like a
dream perhaps seems the call to the
new ministry, and yet as the back
ward glance Is taken the one thus
called is forcibly struck by the fact
that the events and experiences of life
have peculiarly fitted for the new
work. Such consciousness of the
providential leading and preparation
for a work Is certain to deepen the
conservation and to give inspiration
for the work lying just ahead.

Scripture Authority-The BOOK OF
