REV. VIOLET
 ON SALOONS Evangelist Declares He Is Not Against the Saloon
 Keeper As a Man BUT AGAINST LIQUOR Says Men Who Permit Sale of 1t are to Answer For 1t it-Gives
 Some Figures.
BUT AGAINST LIQUOR

Evangelist Violett preached to a large attendance last evening at the revival tent at Fifth avenue and Mein street upon "The Bible and Booze,' he having previously asked his audience to read the twentieth chapter of Exodus The evangelist opened his talk with the statement that he was not against the saloon keeper as a man, but sympathized most heartily with all who are en- gagged in the liquor business. How ever, he was most pronounced in his attitude toward the business itself Ee stated that seven saloon keepers na, left their business and accepted Chrlst under his ministry in the past four years, one of them becoming a mn- istef of the gospel.
 The evangelist declared that the saloon business in Pine Bluff existed by the consent and permission Of the professed followers of Christ and they must share part of the responsibility for the result of the business, reason ing that if no drunkard can enter the kingdom of Heaven neither can the men that made him a drunkard. The evangelist took the position that the licensed saloon business is against the Bible because it di regards and breaks every law that was ever given to man; against the schools because it will rob a man in twelve months of all the brain power that he can gain in lifetime; against the home because it takes boys and fathers for drunkards, the finished product of the business, and girls and mothers for houses of ill fame or the poor house; against the business interests of Pine Bluff because it takes the earnings of some 15,000 people and turns them in- to the coffers of some twenty-one men who give absolutely nothing in re- turn, but instead leave these people in such state that the grocer and clothier have to go without their trade and money; that taxes are higher without an exception where sa- looms are licensed. It is against the government, he said, because 1t is running the government into bank ruptcy by making it cost the people and government of this United States $8,5OO,00O, ,000 year to get revenue out of the business of $250,000,000 and it further requires 5000 drunkards and 450,000 men and women and chil- dren to march as an army to tho poor house and other places of refuge ey- cry year as toll.
 The audience was favored with quartette by the boys from the Cot ton Belt shops, which was enjoyed very much. The shop meetings con- tinue and good interest is being maintained among the men.
 MT. Violett announced thank of- fering for next Sunday evening. Since an offering has only been asked about twice week during these meetings it is believed that all interested will respond literally to this one solicita- tion for money for the expense of the meetings. He also announced hts streopticon lecture for next Wednas- day night, on Egypt, the Holy Land and the Passion LanG."
 The evangelist will preach tonight oh Gods Wonderful Gift of Love" as s.own in the third chapter of Mat thew.
