BILLY SUNDAYS BREAKS.

While some of the most ardent temperance advocates are
The most Incorporate in speech seldom that the most
radical champion of prohibition Will permit his zeal to carry
him to the point of mailing such reckless, unuthu and
san1euy INSULTING remarks as were contained in the Rev.
Chilly Sundays address in the Court theatre last night in be-
half Of the I.drys.'
Ii is difficult for a rational person to understand the
rowness of preacher of the gospel who will say as Sunday
said every man West Virginia who votes against raca-
lion of the amendment deserves to have his boy ole drnrd
and his daughter TO live the arms of rusoaked wretch
during the remainder of her life
This is the limit of intolerance 1t tanateis. It is
prohibition madness There men whose lives are as clean
as Chilly Sundays, and whose motives and purposes are as
pure intend 10 vote against ratification OF the amendment
They regard prohibition harmful than helpful and they
do not believe that they would benefit either themselves or the
communities which theyve by voting for ratification Sun
day says the they deserve though they may vote as
conscentfousy as Sunday would vote on the other SIDE is to
have ter sons die nkards and their daughters to be forced
to spend their lives in the arms of rum oakedetches

The evangelist with spectacular and acrobafc flourish
Gared the newspapers to print that remark While Il Houu
no doubt be better for the cause for which Nj. Sunday spoke
they did not print it, his dare and his subsequent charge
that the newspapers of West Virginia bought up by The IL
quor interests disclose sudden change in the attitude OF the
baseball evangelist toward The press When Billy Sunday
was conducting his sou-saWng campaign in Wheeling, he
found nc reason 10 be dissatisfied with the newspapers, and he
never considered necessary intimate that they would
not print anything he said He found nothing about them TO
criticize; on the contrary he frequently praised them They
were, indeed, very useful to MIN at That time
When "Biiy' Sunday said the NEWSPAPERS of this state
have been bought up by the liquor interests, he probably meant
the newspapers which are opposing ratification although
he did not say So Be that astma his charge was reckless
and atrufuI and as it was made without investigation and
wholly without knowledge OF The facts we feel justified in say
ma that his MISREPRESENTATION was NlfuI Billy Sunday

GREAT BRITAIN MAY

Poor of India Will Not Be Per

Special Gable 10 The Tribune.
LONDON, Dec, 2l.-Ths recent an
nouncement of the intention OF II
number Of Indian princes to make Great
Britain n present of a fleet of twelve
modern warshjps was hailed with de-
light, particularly in the Tory press,
which represents that part Of the
English people, who, while exceedingly
anxious that this country should build
n fleet big enough To guarantee abso'
lutte naval supremacy, arc most unwii'
hing to share in the cost OF providing
such navy.
Among tho best part of the English
people the first feeling was perhaps
one OF Joy, because it was hoped that
the announcement of such Il gift might
put an end to the costly rivalry in
navy building between England and
Germany, but when it became clear that
1t was not thc fabulously rich Indian
princess who .wero going TO pay for
the ironclads out Of their own pockets,
but the money for tho gift was to be
raised by forcing voluntary" con-
tributions from the poor people of
India, tho first feeling of gratitude
changed TO one Of indignation,
The people of England have very
distinct feeling that If q big navy is
really indispensable TO the welfare of
this country, there is money enough in
England to pay for it, md while similar
gifts on smaller scale have been crate
fully received from other English
colonies. India S position could not be
compared : to that OF New Zealand or
the dominion of Canada.
Whether or not the offer from India
was hoax, as there is sonic reason TO
believe since one OF the supposed con
trjbutors. the Mabarajah of Gwalior,
promptly cabled that he knew nothing
about it, there is n growing feeling in
England that the gift should he tact

The declaration OF the war against

as a complete surprise 10 tho kaiser, who
