the decision of the court.
IL appeared from the record in the

Three Worms of Temperance.

Three Forms of Temperance.
But how? Temperance means
three things:
First. the moderation of that which
Is good.
Second. total abstinence from that
which IS bad.
Third. helping others TO abstain
We may help others In two ways-by
moral suasion and by legal suasion.
Moral suasion means keeping the boy
out of the way of temptation. Legal
suasion means keeping temptation
out of the way of the boy While Il
is a good thing to keep the boy out OF
the way of temptation. it Is a better
thing to keep temptation out of the
way of the boy.
To the end that liquor traffic may
be abolished. We recommend First
that We cordially commend the effec-
tive work Of the anti-saloon league
and other organizations seeking the
suppression OF the traffie and give to
them our cooperation and support to
the extent OF our ability.
Vote for No Liquor Men.
Second. that We again respectfully
but earnestly request the proper off,
Gals Of our national government not
to issue privilege taxes for the sale Of
liquor where its sale Is prohibited
by the laws of the state.
Third. that We urge our senators
and representatives In congress TO
pass some further and more effective
measure besides the amendment 20
the penal code bill adopted by the last
congress to prevent the shipment OF
liquor into dry territory.
Fourth. that a standing committee
on temperance be appointed to report
at the next session OF the convention
and that a report on the subject be
made part Of the regular order OF
business OF the convention.
Fifth, that We urge people every
where not to vote for any one for any
office who is known TO be in sympathy
with the liquor traffic.
God hasten the day when the traffic
shall be completely abolished from
our southland. our country and from
all the world.

Drive Out Liquor for Good.
We are glad to report that six Of
the fifteen states comprising the ter
ritory of this convention have al
ready abolished the traffic entirely
from their borders. while all the
others have abolished 1t from a large
proportion of their territory. We con-
fidently expect the time TO come soon

the convention.

this morning at least five persons were
burned TO death and several others
were injured. After digging in the
smoldcring pile of ashes until late to-
night, the firemen gave up their

victims believed to be buried there.

Is out, IL Is not part of their duty

victims, and this work viii be taken
up tomorrow by the coronerfs S Office.
Aside from the five victims of the
fire, whose cbarrcd skeletons were taken
out today. only seven persons, accord
ing to the register of the lodging
house, are said 80 be missing tonight,
Remarkable Escapes
That a much larger number of its
garded as remarkable. considering the
construction Of the building and the
rapidity with which it burned. The
building is declared to have been one
OF the worst fire traps in the city and
thorough investigation is promised
by Coroner Leland.
The st. George hotel was a himsy
wooden structure, built as an emergency
lodging house after the great fire of
1906. The guests were all men, most
ly laborcrS,
Tho only one Of the dead bodies which
it has been possible 10 identify is be-
lievcd TO be that of C.. II. Johnson,
a miner. OF San Antonio, Tex
Tho st. George hotel was of such
fimsy construction that It's proprietor,
j. w. Shanahan, has been in trouble
with the board of public works since
the building was erected, shortly af
ter the great fire. On December 13,
1906. he was arrested for violating the
building law, but was dismissed on
promising TO make alterations which
would increase the safety Of the build
ing. According to John I. Morgan of
the Public Construction society, many
complaints have been made against
Shanahan, on the ground that the st.
George was veritable fire trap. Fire
Chief Shaugbnessy declared that there
are numerous other unsafe lodging
houses in this city which he proposes
to take action to have closed.

CIVIL WAR PROBABLE,
BUT NOT DETERMINED

LONDON, April l6.-While many
fragmentary reports point to the i'm
minence of civil war in Turkey because
of the efforts Of the defeated Young
Turks to re-establisb their supremacy,
as yet there is not much authentic in
formation tending to show that the
troops are ready to support the com
mittee Of union and progress.
The situation in Constantinople con.
tinues quiet, but it may be remembered
that Nazim Pasha, who now is IN COM
mand of the troops, quite recently was
at the head of the Third army corps
in the Saloniki district, and it may he
doubted whether the troops would be
willing to rise against their old COM
mander.
Enver Bey. one of the chief organ
izers of the Young Turks revolutions,
has lust arrived at Salonlk. where he
has assured his friends Of tho ulti-
mate success of the efforts to preserve
the constitution. There is plenty Of
evidence Of activity on the part of the
committee Of union and progress and
the next forty-eight hours probably Will
show whether the committee Will BIZ
able to make a military movement OF
any strength.
