The Demand for Platform Plank.

The quadrennial general conference
Of the Methodist Episcopal church de-
n1ands a prohibition plank in every
party platform. In words as plain and
honest as plownan's hand, the
political parties were called upon to
declare for America against Beer and
Whisky. AS adopted the resolution
reads
Whereas. a larg, portion of the
United States has prohibited the
sale Of intoxicating liquors, and
the unlawful sale of such liquors
in dry territory is largely carried
on as interstate commerce and by
the use Of the mails; therefore, be
it
Resolved, by the General Con-
ference Of the Methodist Episcopal
church at Saratoga Springs, New
York, that we urge upon all
political parties the adoption of
declaration in favor Of Congress
Immediately passing laws prohib-
iting all interstate commerce in
intoxicating liquors and forbidding
the use Of the mails for liquor
shipments and for sending liquor
advertisements; and
Whereas, the conscience OF
America and Of the world con-
dennis the traffic in intoxicating
liquors; therefore, be it further
Resolved, that we earnestly urge
all political parties in the national
conventions to declare In favor OF
Congress submitting to the legls-

Now comes, with robins on the wing,
The dainty, blushing bride OF Spring.
A beauteous thing in filmy lace.
With pride writ on her naughty race.
The pretty bridesmaids all are there;
A galaxy that's passing fair.
The fathers there upon display
To give the blushing bride away.
The minister is at his post,
The one man who is needed most.
The best man is there with the rest
In his boiled shirt and low-n ecked vest
But there is one who's hard to find.
There are so few have him in mind
He sort of gets lost in the crowd,
His mortal spirit is not proud.
He's elbowed round from place to place,
A selling platter in the race
And not a person seems to care
A continental If he's there.
The humblest mortal in the ROOM
You guess correctly-he's the groom.
