Souls the Issue

1t is not chiefly that the saloon is a
political evil, not chiefly that drunken
ness is abhorrent, not chiefly that it
interferes with work and business, not
altogether that it makes so much misery
for SO many, but that at last we are see
ing that the saloon and intemperance are
the enemies of souls that have infinite
worth and the destroyers of bodies that
have cost such care. We are at last see
ing how utterly illogical even imbecile,
it is to spend thousands of dollars on
schools and churches to produce fine
souls and thousands of dollars on SAM
tary cities and streets and houses and
safeguards to grow healthy young man,
and even to spend thousands more to
restore criminals to manhood, and then
to allow on any corner an institution
which destroys both body and soul.-The
Congregational and Christian World.

Liquor Ads Dangerous

Power and responsibility go together.
An old man said: when mere boy,
read paper that has warped my
whole life, defeated my usefulness, and
happiness, in large measure" News
paper publishers have great power and
grave responsibilities for their readers.
Those who use this power so as to
warp human life are scarcely less than
deep-dyed criminals. Whoever warps
life for gold cannot be good man.
Commercialized papers, like commercial
ized virtue, scatter the miasma of disease.

Advertises Its Virtues

Out west newspapers and boards of
trade are not slow to advertise to the
world the fact that their towns are with
out saloons. Here is the Bellingham,
Washington Herald giving number of
reasons why people should locate in that
city. 1t speaks of the healthy climate,
the beauties of the scenery, good oppor-
tunities for investment, excellent edu-
cational facilities, the rapid growth of
the city, but one of the principal reasons
which it gives is this:
The atmosphere of the city is clearer
and purer than that of any other city.
There are no saloons, no blind tigers
no restricted districts in Bellingham.

that Raider is a cigarette fiend must

The defense holds thai Mrs. Szabo'
died of drowning and that death was
accidental. Gibson had not decided
this forenoon whether he would take
the stand. AS a motive for the alleged
murder. the state will seek to prove
that Gibson coveted his clients $40, 900

him for Mrs. Szabo. he was named as
executor. Mr.. Rodgers will attempt to
show that $7,i00 of his estate, par:
TALLY administered by Gibson prior to
his arrest, is missing. Jacob J. Singer,
of Gibson's counsel, said today that the
$7.l00 was paid to a woman known to
Gibson as Mrs. Petronella Menchik,
mother of Mrs. Szabo, and that Gibson
had receipts to prove it. Mrs. Petron-
ella Menchik died in Vienna two years
ago. The woman who Gibbons says
impersonated her has vanished.
