Lambert. and Ne Thinks Prospects
Of Success Coed.

An interesting lecture was delivered
st the Methodist church Sunday
morning by Rev. Lambert, Superin-
tendent Of the Anti-Saloon League Of
the State Of Louisiana. Rev. Lam
bert is an eloquent speaker, clear and
forceful and one that holds the at
t~ention Of his hearers and impresses
them by his sincerity of manner. He
employs none of the Yituperatiye
language usually dealt in by some
speakers Of this league. but all Of his
criticisms are on a high plane and
can not be construed as an attack on
any individual.
Rev. Lambert opened his lecture
by reading from the 22nd chapter Of
st. Mathews which says. Render
unto Caeser the things which are
.Caesers, and unto God the things
that are Gods This was the an
swer Of Christ to a delegation COM
posed Of the Pharisees and Herodians,
when they asked him whether it was
right for them to pay tribute unto
Caeser. They were endeavoring to
get Christ tangled up in bis talks, or
making him contradict some Of his
former teachings, when they received
the above reply.
The subject of the lecture was
Christian Citizenship and Rev.
Lambert had no trouble ID holding
the attention Of his audience. There
was 8 good representative crowd out
for the morning service. He spoke
Of how the devil got in his work,
was first by making friends
With You and then getting you to see
his way, and that the same
method was employed by politicians
Of today. Whenever . fellow comes
and pats you on the back telling you
what q fine fellow you are, you can
just make sure that he has some-
thing up his sleeve"
Christian citizenship must ema
nate from a heart that has been
touched By God, qualifying him for
she responsibilities Of life. Would
that we had more preachers that
would preach good citizenship from
their pulpits, making men realize the
great responsibilities that rests upon
Them. | dare say that there are men
here that will curse me before to-
morrow, but let them curse, what
1oes it amount to- We are lighting
j great battle for principle and We
nave the word Of God on our side.
The most colossal blunder that
)ur Government ever made, was the
egalizing Of the liquor traffic, maxi
ng it lawful for a ma to sell to his
men that which will only serve
o degrade him. Whenever you hear !.

4 want to commend your minister
here for the stand that he has taken
in the fight here. You will hear men
say that a preacher has no business
in politics; BY what rule do they fig
ure that q man gives up his right as
q citizen when he enters the ministry?
For my part they must get 5 little
more religion in them before | shall
allow them to dictate to me as TO
how I shall preach or how / shall
vote
He paid . passing reference to
some Of the New Orleans papers, ae-
cusing them of fighting for the liquor
crowd and Marse Hy. Waterson of
the Louisville Courier Journal came
in for his share Of attention.
You are not the only people that
have blind tigers, We have them
right there IN our city Of New Or
leans, there being something like
seventeen or eighteen hundred Ii
censes paid for saloons and about
2300 revenue licenses for the city.
What are those other revenue licenses
for? Certainly not for the pleasure
Of paying it only.
The saloons are doing their best
to destroy every church in the land
for they realize in them their greatest
enemy, but this great wave that is
sweeping the country is gradually
breaking their power in politics.
He quoted Supt. Baker Of the Ma
tional Anti-Saloon League as having
said in q speech in Birmingham, that
There is not q city in the United
Of $4,000 or more population
is not controlled BY the liquor
men in the government Of its affairs.
The liquor traffic is responsible for
all of the grating ia our larger cities
and the government. They get con-
troll Of the city officers, the parish
and State officers and when
.Ver they say move, Why they move.
He touched upon the Gay-Shattuck
aw, saying that there were some adj
points about it, but how they
we're fought around and the law not
enforced. Some few days ago in
lew Orleans / saw q little fellow
q saloon with a can and emerge
With q can Of beer, and this in viola
ion Of the law and with The know
edge Of the officers. If yon call
heir attention to il they will say
Oh, We can't stop that thing
The idea of an officer of the law
hat has q particle Of manhood about
i'm, saying that he is powerless to
the law. The same officers
hat fail to enforce the prohibition
aw, would not enforce d regulation

aid Rev. Lambert, some are black,
ONE are white; sometimes a man,
a woman. Where doe. he
tay? He stays only where he is
to stay. If yon have any
ere, it il because they are allowed
3 stay here. ! am going to repeat
statement here that / have made in
my speeches over the State, and
hat is, That an officer that will not

any other law that is on the
books.

You should stand back Of your officers
and let them know that you are with
them in the enforcement Of che law"
He recited . little incident in q
town of this State. When there
delivering a lecture, he was told that
the town was full of blind tigers.
Well" | said, why don't You get
after your chief Of police and your
town council and have them to see
that the officers enforce the Law?
Well / was told that the town was
not incorporated. | asked who APP
pointed those officers with buttons on

Well, said /, why don't you appeal to
the Sheriff? Will do no good, was
said. We'll, | believe in making q
friend out Of d fellow instead Of an
enemy, 50 I told them to try it, to
get up a petition and send It to the
Sheriff. They did it, containing che
signatures Of very near the entire
town. Well, Mr.. Sheriff sent word
that he would be in town TO see
about it on d certain day; well, of
course the day he arrived, every
thing was shut tight. Il wasn't long
before things were running again,
Well, I told them there was another
recourse, to write to Gov. Sanders.
don't know that Gov. Sanders is any
Saint as far as religion goes, but he
is a good sort of a fellow, has a good
face and besides is a good politician.
Well, don't know what they wrote
him, or what he wrote the Sheriff, on
if he wrote at all, but lido know that
the Sheriff got busy and it wasn't
long before every blind Tiger was
shut as tight as could be and that
they are still shut tight
He touched upon the affair in Opel
ousas and said that 0peIousas had
been pretty widely advertised along
with some Of her citizens, but that it
was the wrong kind Of advertising.
He regretted to see that the Clarion
had published the editorial from the
Chicago American, as every one
knows that this is a Whiskey paper in
every respect, and he cited some Of the
things that we're untrue in the article.
Z am glad to see that you all have
had Judge ONeal sent here as your
he is a good one and one
that will do you good work. Said he
was told that he had q good Grand
for the coming term.
He then dwelt for a few minutes
on the organization of the League,
said that It was organized some four
I
years ago, and that be had charge Of
the work since January. AT the
next session Of the legislature we
shall endeavor to have the loose
in the present law frightened
and look towards the better enforce
ment Of the prohibition laws. You
find as many blind tigers in vet
territory as in dry territory 80 it is
not prohibition that brings on blind
tigers.
Some papers seek TO lead the pub
lie to believe that the wave of Pro-
hibition is receding, but the figures
don't show it. Last year We closed
u average Of 80 saloons per day, and
u 70 July 1st Of this year We we're
them at the rate Of 45 per
lay. Does this look like It il dying

With AIdrich.

Washington, April president Taft
was informed of the senate program
for the administration OF the new tar
i'll bill. 1t provides that a minimum
tariff shall apply to all countries for
one year. At the end of that time
maximum rates win go into effect
against all countries which, in the
opinion of the president. are not Civ
ms the United States their best tariff
he president is understood to ia.
yof strongly this idea of application
of the maximum and minimum prin-
ciple, and it is believed It viii be
the plan finally agreed upon. The
plan of administering the minimum
and maximum rates in the house bill
as 1t now stands is said to be more
indefinite and less effective than the
one proposed by the senate finance
committee
Prior to the cabinet meeting Presi-
dent Taft had a conference with
Chairman Aldrich of the senate COM
mittee on finance and Secretary Of
the Treasury MacVeagh. Senator Al
drich assured the president that the
committee Is making most satisfac-
tory progress with the tariff bill, and
said there would be little or no delay
in taking up the matter In the senate
following vote In the house.
The administration features of the
senate bill were then taken up for
discussion, which will be resumed at
the White House next week. Senator
Aldrich left for New York, and the
finance committee will not meet dur
ing his absence.

with Cyrus Field Judson, were in

Power company stock.
The trial of the suit, which was the
third in the case. has engaged the
