Indiana's Lieutenant Governor
Resents Prayer for R;ghteousness

indianapolis, Ind, February.-Much
to the surprise of the members of the
State Senate, and to the indignation
of the good citizens of Indiana Lieu
tenant Governor William P. O'Neill
brought down his gavel with whack
and stopped a prayer which was being
made by Rev. ]. R. Henry, pastor of
Emanue! Baptist church, of this city,
because, he said, the minister had in
suited the Senate.
In his prayer Rev. Mr.. Henry asked
the Almighty to speed the day when
the state should break its partnership
with the liquor traffic and cease to fill
penitentiaries, jails and almshouses
with the victims of whisky. Then the
minister went on:
"And we pray of God that the part
nership between the state and Grim
inals may be dissolved"
You are here to make prayer and
not political speech" said the lieu

the reading of the journal
While the clerk was preparing to
read the journal the minister suddenly
concluded his prayer and left the SEN
ate hurriedly. 1t was the first time
in the history of the state that min
lister had been so treated.
Rev. Mr. Henry also made the pray
er in the house at the opening of the
session, before going to the senate.
His prayer in the house was similar to
the one in the senate as far as refer
ences to the rum traffic were con-
cerned, but he went even further in
the house than in the senate on that
subject. In the course of his prayer
he said that "the members of the leg
islature had accepted bribe money
from the liquor business when the
state took the saloonkeepers' money
for license to run saloons"
This part of the prayer caused some
of the members of the house to look
around, but no one said anything.
