Clarence j. Ferguson s Talk on Tenn
perance.

Clarence j. Ferguson of Burlington de-
| lvered an address at the Baptist church
Sunday evening on Our Rum Laws, The
! Theories in Practice. Mr.. Ferguson said
IN part: , a.,
that the days Of liquor traffic are num-
bered and it is poor Christian who does
not, say the same. Christ's command,
Go ye into all the world means into
politics too and it is the duty of the Chris
tian church to get in far enough SO that
decent men may go into it. The Bible
says Woe to the man who puts the cup
to his brothers lips If it is wrong for
one man to do it how can it be right for
the town or state? License has no foun-
dation on principle; it stands, il at all, on
expediency. The friends of license claim
hibit- annihilate they mean. They say
Ferguson delivers Tommy rot | have
never looked up the definition of the
word but it must mean facts, for the
man who opposes the liquor business
must be able to prove his facts from the
records. Burlington in 1901 had 80 DRINKS
and in 1906, 3O7; Rutland in 1901 had 81
DRINKS, in 1906, 46l Essex in one year
of license had more DRINKS than in 25
previous years. Get back of these figures

A FINE MEETING

Quite an assemblage of women met with Mrs. Gould Wilson at the beautiful home of her mother Mrs. Wm. Gee, on yesterday afternoon. By their earnest faces and determined step, and by the numerous books and papers carried by many, it was easily surmised that a w. c. T. U. meeting was the intention. With thrilling hearts and oftimes with moistened eye, did we listen to the most excellent program on "Child Labor" as arranged by Mrs. Evered. Each article read proved that the thoughtful world is waking up to the poor economy of employing the young life of the nation in factory and mine in fact anywhere, that deprives them of the needed growth and education which istheirs by right. We find that Colorado takes the best care of her children of any of the states. She makes it a criminal offense to employ any child under fourteen years: the children must be protected under ten years, and parents are held responsible for the behavior of their children, - that is, are punished for not looking after them. All this has blossomed out in the juvenile court, made famous the world over by Judge Lindsay, of Denver, and who takes for his text: The child is the state"
 Mrs. Browning's poem, The Cry of the Children" read by Mrs. Young, was a fitting climax to the many excellent articles.
 The social hour was enhanced by the serving of delicious "Fruice, the favorite beverage of all White Ribboners. It truly cheers, but intoxicates not.
 T enext meeting will be held with Mrs. Gertrude Moncrief and will be conducted by Mrs. Stephens. We are expecting an interesting meeting as the years work will be passed in review. Each officer and superintendent of departments will give a re- sume of work accomplished the past pear. It will close our w. c. T. U. year. and we hope every member will be present, as an

MIR. RO0SEVElT'S PLAN OF HALF PUB
 LICITY WORSE THAN NONE

Driven into corner, Roose- welt says that the publication of campaign contributions before an election might be seized up- on by demagogues as a means of defeating the beneficiary of the the gifts.
 This, then, to the mind of Mir. Roosevelt would deprive the money of it's purcha sing power, and for anybody not to get his moneys worth is a crime, so taught by liar yard economists.
 Bryan demanded publicity of campaign contributions. Roose- welt favors half publicity-pub- licity after election.
 Roosevelt's theory would per init the purchase of the presi- dency, ths recording of the bill of sale, and the people would not know to whom they were sold until the deed had been signed, sealed and delivered.
 The president has been until now, the protagonist of publici- ty as a cure for every corpora tion evil. Publicity, he held would stop rebates. stock job ping and the watering of stocks. But as a prevention of election bribery Roosevelt tells Bryan that publicity would not do.
 Now let us see how Roosevelts plan worked. We got publicity of the money put into Roosevlt's s 1904 campaign after the election through corporation scandals aired in court and the publica- tlon of stolen letters.
 Much of that money was stol- en from the people. About one hundred thousand dollars was stolen from the mutual life in- surance companies. Had there been publicity before the election Roosevelt would not have written to Hartman to come to Wash ihgton, and got Hartman to raise $200. 900 to pull the Repub- lican state ticket through.
 Hartman admits that this money bribed Higgins into the governorship and Herrick into defeat. He says 50,00O votes were turned.
 Roosevelt's plan in the 1904 campaign was an incentive to bribery. Taft's plan provides for money rule. Shall money rule or shall the people rule. That is the ultimate question the
