This monstrous traffic that exists among us by
the grace of ignorant Indifferent corrupt

overdrawn. 1t is rather underdrawn partial and frag

Cruel and heartless as the deed was the burning
of the Eternal city not destructive of the morals
health and lives of the Roman citizens. 1t doubtless
resulted in identifying the city in increasing business
for dealers in building materials and in furnishing
ployment for the artisan class. No such mitigating
claims be made for the liquor traffic There is no
valid argument for it-NOT ONE. No one is really

The Rising Tide

Canute, medieval English king, is said once to
have placed his royal throne the seashore at low
tide and to have commanded the incoming tide to
in its advance The only reply of the to his
autocratic command the roar of the advancing
they broke on the shore around him.
In much the manner, the liquor interests
whose tyrannical power threatened by the ad-
of public sentiment striving save them
selves by protesting against the temperance move
ment But to one who observes conditions all over
the world the temperance movement is as deep and
reslstless as the ocean tide.
1t has scarcely been twenty-five years since the
modern temperance conflict began Now eight states
in the union dry, and nearly all have enacted
strctive legislation. The conservative old countries
of Europe have likewise entered enthusiastically into
the conflict. Even Germany whose citizens hailed
far and wide temperate drinkers, has several
aggressive temperance organizations. All the
world, determined conflict is being waged against
the liquor traffic.
And yet whenever temporary defeat comes to
temperance forces, the liquor papers ubilanty point
out that the temperance is beginning to recede.
1t is needless to say that they mistake the waves on
the surface of the temperance for the deep
underlying tide And their feeble protests will be
mpotent in opposing the resstless tide of temper
movement the commands of the ancient
English monarch to the stay the incoming tide Of the
ocean

Within Gods plan OF progress;

How strong the reefs of sin,

But the tide is win
