Men often do things against

Men often do things against
their will. Sometimes they are
right and sometimes they are
wrong. As the will is the domi-
nant power, conscience is often
smuthered and better judgment
ignord. Hence, 1t ia the will
power and prejudice of man that
80 often keeps him from doing
the best thing possible for himself
and his fellows. Sometimes a
mans conscience will not down,
the will submits and walks forth
boldly to do, regardless of circum-
stances, that which he believes to
be right, thus performing a con-
scientlous duty. To know what is
ones conscientious duty the ear
and heart must not only be open
and ready to admit the truth but
they should seek it. Those who re-
fuse to read temperance literature
or hear temperance speeches seem
to be afraid of their conscience
Afraid they will see the error of
their way and be convinced
against their will.

There are men who will not go
to hear a temperance speaker, or
read an article on temperance,
simply because, they know that
the manufacture and sale of whis-
key as it is conducted, is an evil
business, and, claiming to be men
of honor, truthfulness, righteous
ness, and Christian beliefs, they
fear their honest convictions, their
sense of right and common JUS
tice will assert themselves and
force them to vote for soberness
and right. There is no halfway
ground in this matter. Right is
right, and mankind has no right
eousness, no morality to virtue,
no honor, no truthfulness and no
soberness to spare. How many
are they who are carrying these
things to the barroom to be wash
ed down with unbenefcial, unnec-
essary and destroying liquor? The
question of a man taking a drink
of the old-time. unadulterated
beverage, and the question of IL
censing the manufacture and sale
of the miserable death-dealing
stuff, now Oh the market, are en-
tirely different matters. It may
be possible for a man to do the
former with. a blameless con-
science, but to vote for the per-
petuation of the present methods
of manufacture, adulteration, sale
and common, mischievous use, by
old and young, is undoubtedly a
great evil, before both God and
man. The man who votes for the
sale and manufacture of whiskey,
the kind of whiskey now on the
market, deliberately takes upon
himself his pro rata of the evil
produced by it's use. He takes
his stand by the murderer and
says, "K1ll, I and the law are with
you" He stands by the thief and
the man who forces his wife and
children to wear rags and go hun
cry to appease his appetite and
says, "Success to your hellish
work, I and the law are with you"
Isn't this true? Don't you become
a partner when you advocate its
use and authorize it's sale by your
vote? You do. Probably not
Intentionally, but the results are
materially the same.

Negro Shot by Negro.

Because Bob Watts criticised
John Shaw, both colored, for
using obscene language at a fes-
tival which was in progress in
Spencer Monday night, Shaw shot
Watts in the abdomen three times.
Watts was taken to the sanito-
rum and died Tuesday and Shaw
is confined in Jail. Shaw has a
a number of severe cuts in his
back which he claim were made
by Watts who he shot in self de-
tense. Others think he was cut
by friends of Watts as Shaw was
