Against The Saloon

With the saloon as his subject, Rev.
Father Brady, "A Catholic priest OF
Urbana, Ohio, recently preached from
the altar of st. Marys church a SER
mon so eloquent and SO effective as TO
powerfully impress his congregation
with its force and truth. Father Brady
stated that while theoretically il was
possible TO conduct saloon as honor
ably as a grocery or a'drug store, he had
never known of liquor drinking place
being so conducted Saloon keeping
would be legitimate, perhaps, if the
seller of liquor would dispose of his
goods in the same proportion as the
druggist must sell his poisons, strych-
nine, paris green, rough on rats and
arsenic-for they are all poisons alike.
But if the saloon is made, as it usually
is, an ante-room TO hell, place OF
degradation, road TO destruction, then
do not see how the saloonkeeper is
going TO settle up his account with
Almighty God such declarations
| from the altar as are herewith quoted
from Father Brady, and rs are coming
from the lips of Catholic priests in
Michigan and other states puts an end
TO the claims that have been made by
saloon and brewery representatives that
the Catholic church was "liberal''
towards their business. No more
effective work in opposition 10 the
liquor traffic is being done by any body
Of faithful men than is coming from
scores of earnest and loya. Catholic
priests.

Don't Get Scared.

Vice president d. +. Russell of the
Delaware, Lackawana q Western Coal
Company declares there is no need of
anyone paying fancy price for coal.
OF the coal situation, he says, "More
anthracite is being mined than ever be-
fore. Foolish people and the speculat-
ors are the cause of the coal panic
Fires will not go out this winter be-
cause of lack of coal. 1t is impossible
TO provide supply for all winter at
once.
"There is no need of paying cent
above the established prices because no
premium will bring coal a minute
sooner. Order only coal enough for
immediate needs, exercise patience and
there will be no trouble.

TIE COUNTRY
IS BOOMING
What's The Matter Wish The
Taft Administration
Anyhow
A RECORD BREAKER
Country Is Richer, Bigger, Happier
and Healthier Than Ever
Before

"N hats the matter with the United
States under Taft's administration,
anyhow" There are loud and vehe-
ment wailings about "evils" and
"wrongs" and slavery" and the
people are being told that conditions
are so bad that nothing less than a
complete reversal of present policies, a
practical revolution in our system of
government, can cure them. But is that
true? Or is it mere hysteria, the vain
imaginings of men who are "out" and
want to get "in?" If you can't answer
those questions, suppose you ask few
of the people you meet.
Ask the farmer. He will tell you
that the crops this year are worth
$4,000, 900, 900. That is at least $780,
100000 more than any farm yield i'll
any other year and in any other land
Ask the iron and steel makers. They
will answer that more tons of coal, coke
and iron are being converted into
finished steel than in any previous year
in this or any other country.
Ask the railroad president. He will
tell you that traffic is almost at the
record point for all time.
Ask the car and locomotive builders
They will answer that they are employ
ing three times a. many laborers as
they were year ago.
Ask the shipbuilders. They will
answer by pointing out the number of
vessels on the ways-a sale for every
birth, some Of them to foreign owners
Ask the laborer himself. lie will
answer that his average wage is now
greater than ever before and that his
hours of work are shorter
Ask the banker. lie will point TO
clearances that mount higher and high
or week by week, sure barometer for
the swelling tide in all kinds of busi-
ness.
Ask any one except the professional
agitator, and the answer inevitably
must be: The country is richer and
bigger and happier and healthier than
it has ever been before.
So then, what's the matter with the
United States under Telt anyhow?
