how many men in Hollywood havs
been marked with the paws OF the
lion. Shall we not g6 down into the
pit and wrestle with the Hon for the
salvation OF the souls of men. Some
times II seems to me that the minions
of evil mock us saying Where Is now
thy God
How do we tolerate such things
And yet they stand In the MIDST OF
our city. There are l5o licensed sa-
looms in Richmond, and about sew
enty-five churches. The saloons stand
fora the destruction of everything we
would preserve. Lock at our boys
and our girls. too. DO the saloon
keepers pour liquor down their
threats to make them better men and
women
Il can think of nothing more con-
temptible than a man whose greed fer
money leads him into the liquor bust
ness. and Yet the saIoonkeeper IL TO
my mind the most pitiable thing on
earth. Men may say that high license
Is best. but IL that be true then the
Bible is wrong.
AS to the city of Richmond being
allowed TO have saloons when the
whole State is practically without
them, I don't see by what argument
men reach this decision. The city
does not issue the license The State
does that And in issuing a liquor
license to q Richmond saloonkeeper
the State makes me a party to the
transaction because / am a citizen OF
Virginia.
Evils Bound Together.
NO man in Virginia would dare to
go before the legislature with meas
ure TO license the houses OF ill-famo
in Virginia. He would be looked
upon with scorn by his fellowmen. and
the legislature would think the mat
ter too preposterous to consider. Yet
the saloon and The house of ill-fame
are bound together by every tie. The
path between them !. clear. and both
rest upon the same foundation.
AS TO the statement that saloon
elimination would bring forth crop
of unlicensed drinking places, what
is house of ill-fame except an un-
licensed drinking place? Liquor Is sold
In every one Of them In Richmond.
and they have no licenses.
THE elimination Of the saloon IL
one Of the great subjects of the day.
and in the fight to drive the liquor
trafilc from the State the church must
take a leading part or lose the pres
tige which a glorious history has gain
ed il. Difficulties In the way must not
deter churchmen from carrying on the
fight. Difficulties were meant to be
overcome, and the greater the diff
Guilty the greater the glory.
'If in this great work the church
should fall back from the forefront of
battle. and leave the field to the hosts
of evil, then will God write Ichabod.'
where once stood the church of Jesus
Christ. and the glory that was ours

The service was concluded by the
singing OF the hymn. 1.-THE Son of

vandiver issuer tonight a carefully pre-
pared statement describing the manner
in which knowledge OF the attempt to
hold up James C. Stewart for $150.000
came to Senator OGorman. The state
ment says.
Senator OGorman's attention was
first called to the matter by James G..
Stewart, in a casual way, on the night
OF December 21, 1919. at the Waldorf
Astoria in New York. after the close
Of the Suizer dinner.
"On the following Monday the SEN
ator obtained Mr.. Stewards permis-
sion to convey the information TO Mr..
Sulxer, then governor elect, and on Fri

SUCCESS OF REBELS

was much simpler, as the United
States acts as receiver of the DoMin-

out the revolutionists by informing
them that In case they overthrow the

In Hayti however. the United
States government has not any such
club to hold over the rebels. For this
