TERRIFIC STORM
 0N THE SOUND
Mariposa Delayed En Route From Seward--Hukon In Sound
 Since Saturday.

The Maripusa arrived last night at & o'clock and left short ly after for Seattle. Captain Moore, in Spraking of the storm, said:
 "IL was blowing a hurricane and We could not see foot in to the inky darknrSS. We were unable to pick up the entrance to Ecklcs channel, by which we come into the sound, SD We were compelled to turn out to sea. It has been Slurming ever since We left here Saturday night, and was one of the worst storms I have ever experienced on the coast. The lightning all of Saturday night was binding. It would make il as light as day, and then the darkness would be more in- tense after each flash. making navigation a difficult matter.
 "We tried tn pull the Dora on' the beach at Seward but could not make it. as she had been washed high on the hrach and iS in a dangerous condition. Her seams have opened up and she fills with water at the rise of each tide. Carpenters are now at work patching her up. The CordOva is standing by tn help her off if il can be done. The bora iS on sandy beach and the combined efforts of the Mar ipOSa and the cnr,lnNa could not blnlgc her"
 Yukon Delayed.
 The Alaska Coast company s boat. Yukon. was al Fllamar last night according to a wireless re- r"iv"d by the operator on the MaripoSa. She had been waiting al Port EtchcS. which is just inside of thu sound near the Hinchin- brook lighthouse and the storm was SD terrific that Captain Jen- sen did not consider il advisable tO put to sea and he lay in Port Etches for i6 hours. finally re- turning tO Ellamar. as the storm grew worse.
 The barometer laSl night was exceedingly low, and it is very likely that a gale was still blow ing.
 Following were the outgoing passengers on the Mariposa last night: Chris. Robertson, J. T. Evans. Mrs. F.. II. Suskcy, Edwin Eckrrn. J. Kemp. Miss NJ. White head. Robert Srnti, l.. $.

The Saloon Enemy Of the Wage
Worker

John B. Lennon, treasurer Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor recently said:
There reasons why the wage workers
should be against the saloon that do not apply to every
other class and condition Of society. But there
some reasons which perhaps apply with little greater
force to the wage worker than to anyone else
First among these reasons is the unquestloned
fact-I have never seen it denied by anyone-that
money spent in the saloon is absolute waste have
never heard in my life contend that expenditure
for alcoholic beverages not money wasted. 1t does
not clothe the body; does not stimulate the mind
gence-it does not make the home comfortable
enable the wage worker that spends money in the
saloon to provide of those things which well
worth having, either for himself for his family.
"And waste bears more hardly upon the wage
workers than any other class of people, this question
of peculiar interest to them, they least
afford to of what is at best but meagre earnings
to enable them to live they should live. And if
few cents is wasted each day less, it means
material injury to the wage worker than it does
to anyone else.
Second the wage worker rule is handicapped
in his life struggle because of lack of opportunity for
culture and education that is within the grasp of other
classes of people. The drink habit to considerable
extent retards intellectual Development and what the
wage workers need in order to make their contest for
better conditions successful is the highest possible
development of their intelligence"

THE AMERICAN ISSUE

Pastors-This Is Your Fight
The pastors of Illinois, than any others, have
made remarkable anti-saloon progress possible.
They church leaders. They community lead
More than others they mould and shape and solid
lfy sentiment. If this the place for compliment
tary references, should pay them tribute for the
results that they have brought to pass in the
ant-saloon warfare. But facing fight and
must talk business In Our recent Primary cam
paign when the superintendent called upon $500 pas
tors OF the state for the appointment Of church
mttees less than one-third responded. Some of
friends thought that liberal response-and it
liberal than before But it not what it
should have been.
Pastors! This is your opportunity to win fight
for the church such has never been won. Novem-
Der ought to be the most important day your cal
endar for the next six months The requests of the
Anti-Saloon League for help-of any kind-should
be honored on their face Your doors should be OPEN
your membership active, yourself ready, to lend
hand whenever called in the next six months There
should be turning back the part of anyone You
do not want to assume in the slightest Degree
responsibility for the defeat of county local option
IN November next winter when the legislature gets
together If this fight is won, you more than anyone
else must win it. Your laymen look to you The
League depends upon you The saloon fears you
Christian Laymen-This Is Your Fight
We must acknowledge that the saloon is doing
more today to retard the progress of the church than
any other evil than all other evils put together and we
must acknowledge that nothing will so much con-
tribute to the prosperity of the church and the hasten
ing of the Kingdom the triumph of the church over
the saloon And so we must come to the conclusion
that every sincere Christian man and woman already
in this fight, should stay in it, and if in it, should
get into 1t at once This your fight because it is the
churchs fight The campaign in which we are now
engaged is your campaign. The work to be done is
your work. If victory comes it will be your victory
If defeat comes-it will be your defeat.
The Church Can Win
If we can achieve victory such as that of our
last Primary with but third of the church member
