This, considering plans mitigating it's
effects, delayed action until the extent
Of the disease was verified and the
effectiveness of its cure and proven

The wide distribution and serious
effect OF the malary, particularly in
the south, has been confirmed
Il invited you to the conference,
hoping to lead to the adoption of plans
for a cooperative movement of all
agencies for cures and prevention OF
the disease.
IF 1t is deemed wise to undertake
this, you may call on me for sums
needed during the next five years to
wage an aggressive campaign up to

DOES PROHIBITION PROHIBIT
Men are everywhere prohibited from
doing that which is wrong. II there
we're no laws to prohibit murder or steal
log or sending obscene literature through
the mails or adultersting food, it would
still be wrong. The laws passed 10 re-
lation to these wrongs are not prohibi-
ton laws, since 1t Is not necessary TO
prohibit what has never been leealized.
Such laws are only made TO prescribe the
punishment for violating the statutes
founded upon the moral Law. Ptohi-
bition, no called, is q different thing. Il
not only attempts to prohibit that which
has been legslizsd by slate aod federal
atule, bot II assumes TO penalize Hha,

very Uame prohibition" is mispoDer,
since prohibition is recognized 10 be an
impossibiiity by Its most JEALOUS advo-
Gates, and what is called prohibition" f"
is, as a matter OF fact, only regulation.
In Georgis, q state which has the most
drastic prohibition law, drug stores sell
liquor and clubs are allowed to dispense
it upon payment Of license. The ma
jOrity OF legislators who vote for the So
called prohibition Law drink liquor them
selves both before and after the act is
passed. They do not want to ensc
legislation which will affect themselves,
but the other fellow-they want to place
"him" out OF harms way. And so it is
With the majority who favor the prohi'
bition Law. There are men who are real
pg0hibitiODisis 10 that they will not
touch or taste liquor themselves, buI
most of them do not favor prohibition.
The msjori,y who favor such restrictive
measures are not total sbstainers them
selves, and are not prohibitionists TO the
extent that they want to place liquor be-
youd their own reach, but are philan-
thropists to the exteut OF not wanting

EVILS OF THE DAY.

1--WE are confronted by at least three
great evlls-polygamy and divorce, inn

of ofourwomen TO become more

of appreciation and reverence for the
real treasures of liie." This statement

cent interview. In further explanation
of his statement the cardinal is reported

refer to the polygsmy OF divorce that
exists in every state aud strikes at the
root Of the family and society. Aoy
divorced man or woman who is married
the second time while having a wife or
husband living, but legally separated
By the decree Of some court, is q polyg-
amist. According to the United States
official report, in the 20 years between
1867 aud 1886 there we're S2S, 7l6
divorces in the United Sistes. In the
.ame period between 1887 and 1906
there we're 942 625 divorces granted, or
nearly $4,000 a year. The United
States has granted more divorces than
sll the European countries combined.
This is certainly most awful blot upon
our fair name. There should be severe
penalties provided By law in all the
states and enforced vigorously against
swearing. This lack Of due respect and
reverence on the pat of our men, wo.
men and children may become national
ma'ady, Tbs constant uttersnce OF
oaths by men is heard on all sidGs.
