Liquor Lucidity

The minister who abandons his flock to accept "cal"
from the AntSaloon League violates the of his ordi
nance; although is wrong from business point view
to denounce him for being himself first last and all the
time.-Lberal Advocate
We commend the above to our readers as a fair
specimen OF the literary style and perspcuty of the
general of liquor journals. This editor does not
seem to know the difference between ordnation and
ord1nance. This mental obfuscation may find ration
al explanation in the fact that the preachers have been
firing many broadsdes of solid shot recently into
the liquor traffic. that "ordinance" and "ordnation'
look alike to the liquor mind. His mental distinction
between the spheres of business and morals equally
hazy and obscure. But then there is not much place
for right in the liquor business.

Firm Stand Needed

To end tale of length
Troy in weakness stands in her strength,
-Trolus and Cressida
In every conflict Of the right against the wrong,
precisely in every between nations, there is
need Of campaigns Of both offense and defense, and
wise general to it that not only he may weaken the
position of the enemy, but that he may strengthen his
forces and present united, firm unassaable
stand To accomplish this latter there be una
nity of opinion readiness to obey and if occasion
require, sacrifice.
When the tents Of Agamemnon were pitched be-
fore Troy, it found that there eaousies in
the camp self-seekng personal ambition and lack Of
interest True the besegers all Greeks and there
was one general in command True indeed, there
was but one common foe and one common desire. But
the Greeks not united according to the complaint
of Ulysses, and it was true in his finding, that Troy
Stood not so much because of it's strength as be-
of lack of strength the part of the Greeks.
The position of the liquor traffic is untenable It's
walls may be scaled easily, it's ramparts taken, its
choicest guns spiked and it's strongholds despoiled.

What is the trouble? Why does the foe continue
to stand although badly crippled? May be that
because the forces of Righteousness have been
more strongly united? Is it not possible that the
armies of right have been too sangune and SO have
neglected to put the whole armor and to stand
firm? Does there exist any sefseeking, any ndiffer-
ence, any sulking in the camp, any weakness at any
point?

Redpin9 the Harvest

There is more inAexble law OF nature than that
what IS sOWn must be reaped. Illustrations of the
working Of this mmutable statute are everywhere
found But there those who seem to think that
somehow or other they will be able find excep-
ton, to break through weak place in the law and to
avoid consequences. Many parents blind to this
law Or Indifferent to its results. With the two-fold
power of education and the ballot in their hands they
are doing little nothing to provide safe and pros
porous future for their children.
For the sake of license money political advan-
tage the saloons permitted to be throughout
the land. The harvest of misery and crime is being
reaped every day. yet continue the seeds
abroad 1t is part of the law of nature that the
reaping shall come, and come it will, though often
the sower may not live to share the benefit or the
of his sowing. The burden of the harvest too
often falls on the next generation.
1t reported to the lord of the harvest on one
occasion that while the laborers slept enemy came
and sowed tares among the wheat. The good men
and women Of this nation may be doing their duty so
far sowing good seed is concerned but there must
be no sleeping, relaxing of vigilance, lest despite
all good efforts the enemy and distributes the
tares.
