THE ETHICAL REVIVAL
Concluded from Page S.

sought him to depart out of their coasts, be-
cause his methods greatly disturbed the business
relations of the community.
Again and again his criticism of the rulers
produced sensation.
Jesus avas a sensation. But that was not why
the people thronged him; it because ne
preached an ethical gospel, the gospel of the
Kingdom of God come among men; gospel that
was realized for Rochester in the vision of St.
John when he saw the redeemed city, not as
New Jerusalem above, but new Rochester
below, holy city coming down from God out of
heaven and landing in this county if you will
have it so, into which There shall in wise
enter anything that defleth neither whatsoever

will abolish the modern boss in local politics,
demolish the gambling dens, extingush the red
light, exclude the brewery and close forever the
saloon, bar, rathskellar, cafe, buffet, subway or
any other legazed broadway that leads to the
wide-open gate of perdition.
An ethical revival that would ignore the saloon
is unworthy of the name. Any man who be-
lieves the saloon to be permanent condition,
who accepts it a necessary institution of
twentieth century Christian civilization may we'll
exclude the prayer "Thy kingdom come, Thy will
be done on earth it is in heaven" from his

Towards New Year

ROCHESTER, N. Y, January 1-(Special CORE
spondence. )-Clinton N. Howard, the wel-known
Prohibition speaker, has so arranged his business
affairs that he will be able to devote more time
than usual to the Prohibition platform during the
coming year. This was made necessary by the
constantly increasing demands for his services
over constantly widening field.
The announcement of Mr. Towards work for
the coming year lists twenty lectures These are
selected from the more than three hundred adj
dresses which Mr.. Howard has delivered in his,
home city during the last ten years.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature of Mr..
Towards work is the fact that in Rochester,
where he has so long lived no man can draw so
large an audience as he

the Educational Association, which is state
ganization of the teachers of this state, in the
Central Presbyterian church of this city, the Hon.
Oliver w. Stewart addressed large audience on
the subject of Good Government"
Governor Hanley, of Indiana, was booked to
address the evening gathering of the same Or
ganization, but was not present and Mr.. Stewart
spoke again, delivering his address, "The Greatest
Governmental Problem" In spite of the difficulty
of taking the place OF man of such wide reputa-
ton as Governor Hanley, Mr. Stewart made
good" and was roundly cheered in his strongest
utterances against the drink traffic and for Prohi

The record which tells are the records of courts
and jails and penitentiaries.
The key to the character of the people is here
it is the danger signal, the red light which warns
off the rocks and shoals ahead.
Yet, another thing: We are going to have
cleaner politics. and this better laws and
better men to enforce Them
This in conclusion: The contest between the
forces of good and evil is as old as the history
of men. Great leaders look down upon us to-
night from all the nations that have gone before
captains of the rival forces contending for the
mastery of men and nations.
Twenty centuries ago Nero reigned in the pal
ace of the Caesars. He was master of the des-
TIMES of men and nations. He stood upon a
pinnacle "sun flashed" his power was world
wide. The brief span of his public life is the
crown of nfamy in human history. Fidelity to
truth was to him an unmeaning term, conviction
of duty the dream of fools. He a coward,
and, like all towards, brute The tears of
women and children shone as jewels to his dis
torted vision. The groans of men in agony the
sound of breaking hearts, was music to his ears.
"The torches which lit his garden" says the his
torian "were human candeabra, and as they,
oOSr>S'o, an
Toasted and sang until the charred feet of his
expiring torches dropped into darkness"
He died as he had lived a mountebank
coward and fool
In the shadow of Neros palace lived an hum
bic tent-maker, yet man with royal brain and
the kingliest heart that ever beat in human breast
His mind the store house of great thoughts,
his heart the sanctuary of holy feelings. His
courage supreme all human torture.
He lived for others. He looked out upon the tor
tured, troubled ocean of humanity and moved by
divinest pity, stepped into the waters. He per-
ished, but when the light of Immortal beauty
had covered his face" he passed from pain of
sacrifice to the glory of martyrdom.
Nero was the embodiment of human selfish
ness; Paul the incarnation of sacrifice. They
were the captains of their time in the rival
armies which, since the dawn of history have
contended for the mastery of man and nations.
We are in the midst of the conflict today, there
can be no neutrals We are enlisted under the
black flag of Nero or the white banner of Paul.
On which side will the men of this Republic
stand?

understand this law, 1t is only necessary Tor me
to say that children, infants in their mothers
arms, being murdered by the deusive syrups
which relieved their pain.
- The spirit of commercialism never in its deadly
course wrought greater havoc than in the adul-
teration of the food and drink which sustain life,
the drugs which carry healing in their wings.
And now, my friends, I come to the great vic
tory in the revolution of 1907. I want to again
impress you the significant truth that the great
law forbidding the manufacture and sale of al
coholic liquors in Georgia, like those other laws
of which I have spoken, was no party measure;
it was heralded in no party platform; no great
leader based his candidacy for office upon his
pledge to enact it. Seemingly other issues of
moment to the state moved the people in the
selection of their state officials. Yet when their
representatives assembled every campaign pledge,
every platform principle, swept aside as
chaf, before the irresistible demand of the peo-
pie for this law; the golden fruit of the revolt
ton of 1907. This is the peoples law-no states
man, no leader no party can claim the glory of
its passage 1t is distinctive1y the law of the
people-the men, the women even the children
of our great southern commonwealth
What of the future?
If the spirit of righteousness anirnates and
controls our great state in the coming year in
the great historic year we watch out tonight; if
out of this spirit comes a rigid, unbending en-
forcement of the law, blessings will to us,
even beyond our fondest hopes.
What will they be? This first: The example
of great state outlawing its greatest evil
Who can measure the influence upon the COM
ing manhood of the state of this high and right
eous example,?
The child who walks the streets of your city
tomorrow will look at the closed doors of hun
.ared saloons and his young impressionabe
mind drinks in the great truth that his fathers
did it. did it because it was right, eternay right
to outlaw and destroy sin, there will come to
him thoughts and feelings that will mould and
shape the future current of his life. Who can
measure the influence of high example? It is
not what think or feel or say, but what we
do that counts
Again, it will lift the sting of poverty from
many thousand homes in Georgia
I speak even less than the whole truth when
I say that of the two thousand millions of dol
lars spent by men in America more than half
is spent by men unable to spend it without depriv
ing those dependent upon them of the things es-
sential to comfort and happiness
All, my friends, if the thousand million dollars
spent for Intoxicating liquors in America by this
unfortunate class could be spent for the things
which make the homes of the humble poor bright
and happy, it would bring-hear me- men of At
lanta-a million to the white cheeks of i'll

fanished, starving hearts of untold women of the

MILLS TAKES A HAND
West Virginia Chairman Drops In On Good

respondence) -Edward w. Mills, state chairman
of the Prohibition party of West Virginia. Wis

and had very peculiar experience with quite
bunch of liquor who were on the public
Streets defending the saloons. The temperance
people had nominated "dry" ticket for mayor
and members of the council and were bitterly op-
posed by the saloonkeepers, who had nominated
wet ticket from top to bottom
a number OF discussions were in ected into the
hight by the liquor men, who became very inso-
lent and annoying. Mr.. Mills, who happened to
be on the street, took tip the issue for the tenn
perance people and, mounting flight of steps
near store building, spoke for one hour and
twenty minutes in scathng arraignment of the
liquor traffic.
the board walks were crowded with people in all
ranks OF life, who came to hear discussion of
the saloon problem Saoonkeepers, bartenders
and their friends endeavored to suppress any dis
cuss1on OF the question: but Mr.. Mills held his
ground and proved very conclusively that the
liquor traffic, instead of helping the community,
always does community infinite harm and in

polls were closed at o'clock that evening the
