Some gentlemen who were in
vestigating the liquor traffic in
Trenton, New Jersy, found that
two thirds" of the houses rented Tor
saloons in Trenton belong to brew
ing and distilling companies, and one
half of the remaining third belong TO
individuals connected more or less
with such companies. Conditions
similar to these doubtless prevail
throughout tho country. The issue
can no logger be clouded The liquor
question is almost wholly q q"estion
between the we'll being of society
and the money interests of the cor
porations engaged in the manufac-
ture O. intoxicants. The saloonist is
a comparatively unimportant factor.
He virtually belongs to the brewers
and distilIers, as do his house, his
stock aud often his fixtures Quite
frequently, it is true, he is making
money; but he will not usually prove
unreasonable. Some other business
would really suit him as well, perhaps
even better The issue is with the
wealthy corporations which are fat
tening upon the weakness and vice
of men They will make hard fight.
LIT nobody be deceived. 1t is not
the farmers who will be h.lrt by
prohibition, nor the daily papers
though some of them deserve to be
but the brewers and distillers. And
it is these gentlemen, nobody else,
who are making all this noise and
and throwing all this dust, trying to
check the temperance movement.

The activity of two political par
ties is conceded as a good thing in
any community, as it forces each to
bring out their best men for office.
In the south it has been for years
that the one who can count upon the
largest family relation, can get a
nomination, regardless of their fit
ness, and that is equal to al election.
Here at Fruitdale, there are at leas
40 men of voting age who are Repub-
licans and if they would get out with
the assistance of outside partisan
they would soon be in a position to
force their opponents to do their
best and in that way we would be as
sured of competent officials, be their

Her Id of Ligh1

Divinely impaired religion is a
predispoSition of the soul to always
choose the lruest and noblest and
broadt st and best possibilities in all
things This choice constantly glor-
flies the actor by always leaguing
him with the laws of the universe and
beStowing the best results upon HIM
with an ability similar to his dispo-
sition: that bestowing the best things
on all under his influence; for it is
ever true that the agency that makes
men most happy makes them at the
sumo time most helpful.
A religion that does not lead a
man to what is best and most sat
tisfactory to both himself and the
greatest number even in this life,
proves its bogus nature thereby; for
since laws are unchangirg and prin-
cipleS are eternal, that which blesses
to-day cannot blast tomorrow, and
that which binders men in time can
not help them in eternity. God re-
We lis both His love and wisdom, in
the fundamental. fact that by His
arrangement what conduces to our
true temporal felicity equally condu-
ces to our eternal JOY; and that which
imparts true happiness here and
makes re i heaven hereafter This
fact wit its reversal is the Creators
premium on virtue and His CORE
spending tariff on vice. L forms
natures double inducement to happy
and helpful living It's manifest be-
nignancy is the proof of its divinity.
