ID. Alexander took me from Arcadia
to Iron Mountain in his automobile.
Soon after leaving Pilot Knob we
passed a saloon, out in the woods, on
the public highway. There were sew
en- drunken men there. Two of them
were down in the ditch and muddy
as hogs. We had to drive the auto
mobile slow to keep from running
over them. If this saloon runs there
very long it will cost st. Francois
County thousands of dollars to pay
for prosecuting the crimes committed
there. / don't see how any man can
vote wet after witnessing such scene
as this. I voted for Woman Suffrage
and l wish / had a thousand votes. I
would put them in for the women, for
the time is 500 coming when they
will vote and then goodbye saloons.
/ was at Bunker last week. This is
a thriving little lumber town. My
friend, Rev. Fred Geitz, is pastor of
the church there. He aud his good
wife are fine workers. She is a fine
singer and leads the song service.
They are doing a good work in that
country. 1 heard a man say out there
that he was, by far, the best pastor
they ever had. He is also pastor of
the Ellington Church and Sunday
School Superintendent. His wife is
assistant. They will hold meetings
in the different parts of the State this
winter. May God bless them in their
good work.
l still see the effect of the Burk and
Hobbs meeting at Bismarck. l was
travelling on the Belmont Local last
week. The crew had posted in large
large letters in the caboose as follows:
"Don't use profane language in this
car. This is our home" l gave them
a drummer's bible. They thanked me
very much for it. May God bless theml
