DIARY OF FATHER TIME.

There really does not seem to be
any good reason why slang should
supplant the English language in
America, for out Of an alphabet OF

100000 three-syllable word-combina-
tions can be made. Then add TO this
number infectional and intona
tional changes. as well as screaming,
crying, laughing, etc.--and, take II
on the faith OF an old man, slang Is
unnecessary. Your vocabulary is
ample. especially when you consider
that the average vocabulary of bus

Prohibition Party only Hope.

To the Editor OF The Times: In
your editorial OF Feb. 81 you said, NO
army was ever known to win a battle
by shooting at itself" In other words,
"a house divided against itself cannot
stand" In morals that is true-in
evils, mo great evil can live without
the support or two political parties.
You pretend to put up a basis or
union for the temperance forces which
means disunion, not union. Your
proposition Is TO hustle for dry votes
and teach men to take dry county
vote in their left hand and a wet par
~ vote in their right hand and go
10 the ballot box That man is divid.
ed with himself and cannot stand as
force against the saloon. Jesus,
says of such people, that they are
neither cold nor hot and because OF
their lukewarmness he Will spew
them out.
The Prohibition party contends that
a man should take dry vote In botn
hands when he goes to the ballot box
The AntiSaloon league says to the
man that votes the old party ticket,
I'VE do not ask you to leave your
party" The league does not ask peo-
Pile to unite at the only point where
union can be made with effect against
the liquor power. Here they repre-
sent a divided house by telling every
one TO stay with their own party.
Both the great political parties are In
favor with rum, have declared II IN
their platforms and under their fos-
tering care, the liquor traffic has quad
rtinIad ftc 0utnut ner raDfta I'm half a
century, thereby growing four times
as fast as the population.
Again, the Prohibitionist knows
that local option has proven a rank
failure as a solution Of the liquor
question for eighty years past. He
knows the philosophy failed on slav-
cry. He knows that from a bible
standpoint 1t Is wrong and that from
Gods word there Is no place that such
a deYilish doctrine Is taught. No
