DEEP TRENCHES.
MISS GORDON DESCRIBES
TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT
TO CONVENTION
(By Associated Pressl

Seattle, Wash, Oct 11.--There was
a ringing note OF triumph in the adj
dress with which Anna A. Gordon, the
president, greeted the first business
session of the National Woman's
Christian Temperance Union here to-
day. Her address came after the re-
port of the executive committee and
the appointment OF credentials and
other committees. 1t swept the world
as affected by the crusade against
alcohol, and found therein great cause
for rejoicing.
Looking backward over the past
twenty months and forward to the
year 1916 one might epitomize the
temperance movement in retrospect
and prospect as "a movement of vic
torious yesterdays and confident to-
morrows,'" said Miss Gordon. Those
months chronicle an unprecedented
number Of prohibition victories. The
temperance transformation of Russia;
the anti-liquor measures in effect In
German, French and English military
circles; the complete abolition OF alco-
hol in the United States navy and in
the Panama canal zone; the outlawing
OF the liquor traffic in Virginia, Colo
orado, Oregon, Washington, Arizona,
Arkansas, Idaho, Iowa, Alabama and
South Carolina; the majority vote for
statewide prohibition in both branches
of Utah's legislature; the triumph of
the enemies Of the saloon in large
number of countries and cities; the
upholding by the United States SUI
preme court Of the constitutionality of
the prohibition provision Of the Indian
treaties making one-fifth Of Mime
sofa dry; the victorious prohibition
elections in forty-fiye of Minnesota's
the battle royal for prohibit
lion in the District of Columbia; the
total abstinence rules enforced by

almost perfect conditions for the

The Philadelphia players ran out

The grounds are in perfect condi-
