SPEAKERS SCORE

LIQUOR TRAFFICE IN THE CHURCHES The opening gun of the Anti-Saloon league's fight to organize a branch hero to fight the liquor traffic was fired in many South Bend and Mishawaka churches Sunday. At First Baptist. Prof. J. E. Cox spoke at the First Baptist church Sunday morning. "Out present methods," he said, "are all right in their way. We have accomplished great things in the past, but when we consider the fact that the work that has been accomplished has been of the easiest, we must rouse ourselves to the harder work that will come in the future. We have been waging a guerilla warfare. Detached forces all over the nation have been waging the battle in their own way. It is plain to be seen that the national forces must combine and slave for the common good of the national league. "Seventy per cent of the territory of the United States has declared for prohibition and one half of the population has expressed itself similarly. The constitutions of ten states have clauses relating to the prohibition of the sale of intoxicating liquors." At First Christian. Tho services at the First Christian church were in charge of Rev. F. P. Leckliter of Indianapolis, who laid great stress upon the fact that Indiana members of the league should strive to get as many prohibition delegates as possible in the convention that will meet in May, 1915. for the formation of a new constitution. "If we could pet away from political elections, the saloons of the state would go out tomorrow. We are proud of our homes, schools and factories and their products; who among us tonight is proud of the saloons that besmirch the name of our fair state? Those that are possessed of such a feeling are lost to society and Christ's power to save is their only hope. "The passage of the Webb bill last winter by congress regulating the shipment of liquors between states was a great point in favor of the antisaloon league." At Westminster Presbyterian. Prof. S. C. Tilden of DePauw university, spoke at the meeting held at the Westminster Presbyterian church. Trof. Tilden has gained some repute as a temperance lecturer, and is one of the strongest workers in the ranks of the league. "The saloon is one greatest political evil." he said. "It dictates to the makers of our laws, is the backbone of the strongest political parties, and even to a great extent controls the destinies of states. When wo are rid of the saloons, we will perforce have cleaner politics." He went on to explain the purpose of the preat convention held at Columbus, and gave as an example to follow the work accomplished by that distinguished body. At Grace M.E. Rev. E. S. Shumaker, who spoke at the Grace M. E. church, emphasized the need of a new constitution, or prohibitory amendments to the pres-

ent one, and pointed out the fact that the league should endeavor to name as many delegates as possible to the constitutional convention in 1915. He paid a glowing tribute to Ex-Gov. Patterson of Tennessee, who, during the time of his administration was a great advocate of personal liberty, but was later won over to the ranks of the temeprance unions. Rev. S. A. Ross was in charge of the services at the Stull Memorial church. Other churches that held meetings were Lowell Heights M. E. church, S.

P. Matthews; River Park M. E., Rev. E. A. Miles; Trinity M. E., O. H. Palmer; Trinity Presbyterian, R. C. Minton. At St. Paul's. Rev. George L. McNaught of Indianapolis, state secretary of the AntiSaloon league, paid a high tribute to Pres. Wilson and extolled the action of Secy. Bryan for abolishing all intoxicating liquors from the white house and from official state affairs, in a big temperance sermon at St. Paul's M. E. church Sunday morning. With 13 state prohibition workers, including Rev. Edward S. Shumaker, state chairman, who was formerly a big active Anti-Saloon worker in South Bend, Rev. Mr. McNaught came here Saturday night to take the initial step toward organizing St. Joseph county, to cooperate with the state in an effort to be made by all tho states to secure an amendment to the national constitution. Indiana will be represented in the delegation to be sent to Pres. Wilson, probably In the next two months, petitioning that an amendment be made, according" to Rev. Mr. McN'aupht Sunday. A committee is being selected to carry a petition to the white house in accordance with the action taken by tho preat national assembly that closed at Columbus, O., last month. The speaker pointed to the need of an organization in this county and urped the churches to cooperate. Monday morning the Anti-Saloon workers of the county will meet at the First Presbyterian church to take up the measure of orpanization proposed for this county several months ago. Committees will be .appointed to have charge locally and the slogan to make United States "dry" by 1920 will be set forth. Already several local men have been spoken of as probable leaders with the movement. Marvin Campbell, Atty. Dan Pyle. Col. Charles Arthur Carlisle and others have been mentioned to head the local organization. Parson's Attack. At the Qulncy Baptist church. Rev. T. J. Parsons delivered a scathing attack on the liquor interests and asserted the people are laboring under a delusion when they deny they have a klng. The present day king, he said is alcohol. His sermon was as follows. First---I am an American citizen. As such I am in a measure responsible for conditions existing in the state and nation. If I were living in a country where despotism holds sway and the ordinary citizen has no voice in the government, as in Russia for instance, the case would be different. Even if I lived in England, where there is a large amount of freedom, yet where the franchise is much more limited than in the United States, I might have an excuse. But in this republic I cannot shirk my responsibility. Christian citizens are beginning to realize and recognize their stewardship. We boast that we have no king to lay enormous tribute upon us, or command obedience to his mandates. We are mistaken. King Alcohol. Wo have a king and his name is

alcohol. He is king of our industrial world. We pay the enormous tribute of $2,000,000,000 a year to King Alcohol. This is more than three times the cost of the federal government and nearly seven times as much as we spend to educate the future citizens of the nation. This Christian nation spends ten million dollars to save the heathen world to Christ, while it spends 200 times that amount to damn its own people body, mind and spirit. Alcohol is king in the journalistic world. Many of the great dally newspapers are either owned by, or subsidized to the liquor traffic. The liquor advertisements lining the railroads entering our large cities prostitute every honest industry and every manly sport while they insult the intelligence of the traveling public with the infernal lie "Budweiser is a friend of mine." Alcohol is king in politics. He has dominated parties, dictated policies and whipped politicians into line. The greatest difficulties experienced in dry territory have come from issuing federal licenses and shipping liquor into prohibition districts. But a new day has dawned. We honor the men who shouldered the musket and offered their lives in sacrifice to preserve the union and break the shackles from the Negro and set him free. We have rewarded their heroism with pensions, offices and homes, and memorialized their deeds in imperishable monuments. But we are in a greater war today, not alone to save the black man, but all men; not the emancipation of the body only, but the mind and manhood, the life and the soul. I owe my country my voice, my vote and my influence to make and keep it clean. Responsibility to Men. Second---l am responsible for my fellow-men. As "no man liveth to himself" and "love worketh no ill to his neighbor," I am bound to help make conditions such that it will be easier for my brother man to do right and harder for him to do wrong. Such is not the case today. In Chicago a woman whose home had been blasted with the whiskey blight, sent her marriage ring---most precious treasure---begging that it be sold and the money used to fight the saloon "for her children's sake." I owe a duty to those children. The day after election I saw a drunken sot staggering to the saloon with a pair of baby shoes in his polluted fingers to barter for a drink of whiskey. That shoeless baby demands my help as does also the poor fool who at the command of the king robbed his innocent child in its crib. One day on crossing Jefferson street bridge I saw a young boy in Howard park so dead drunk that ho could scarcely walk. This in the fair city of South Bend. Can we longer tolerate such conditions without smiting with titanic blows this damnable monster? " Third---I am a Christian. My Bible is unalterably opposed to the saloon. The genius of Christianity is against it. Christ came to save; the saloon came to destroy. Many scriptures might be quoted in defense of my position, but three will suffice. First, for the voter and politician. Habakkuk 2:12, "Woe to him that bulldeth a town with blood and stablisheth a city by iniquity." If by my vote or influence this city is being built with revenue derived from the drink traffic, the blood of victims is upon my soul and the judgment of God upon my head. Second, for the manufacturer and vendor of the liquid damnation. Habakkuk 2:15, 16, "Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that putteth thy bottle to him, and

complexion PIMPLES and blackheads disappear, unsightly complexions become clean, clear, and velvety, and hair health and beauty are promoted by the regular use of Resinol Soap and an occasional application of Resinol Ointment. These soothing, healing preparations do their work easily, quickly and at little cost, when even the most expensive cosmetics and complicated "beauty treatments" fail. All druggists sell Resinol Soap and Resinol Ointment. For trial size of each, write to Dept. 17-S, Resinol, Baltimore, Md. makest him drunken * * * The cup of the Lord's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory." This language is expressive enough without any comment. Third, for the drunkard. St. Paul in I Corinthians 6:10 and Galatlans 5:21, positively declares that "no drunkard shall inherit the Kingdom of heaven." Can I as a Christian aid or abet, sanction or condone, or even tolerate a system or institution which slams the door of heaven in the face of my fellow man? By the help of God I will smite this thing every chance I get. Is Enemy of Church. Fourth---The liquor traffic is the avowed enemy of the church and Kingdom of Jesus Christ; of my fellow men, and of my country. Every day we have fresh evidence in proof of this statement. King Alcohol is setting temptations and pitfalls in the way of the souls whom the church is trying to save; he is digging drunkards graves for my brothers at the rate of 100.000 a year, and seeking to throttle the government of my country into submissive insensibility. Some time ago I read In a Chicago daily of what was said to be the most elaborate golden wedding anniversary celebrated anywhere in the world. It cost $S00,000. The King B was a notorious brewer. A throne was built in his mansion and the king crowned his queen with a crown of gold studded with diamonds and pearls, and she sat on the throne by his side in regal splendor. Among those who paid homage at this coronation of King Booze were William Howard Taft and Theodore Roosevelt, each with a golden offering. The floral decorations alone were valued at $50,000.. Such an occasion was a colossal insult to every American citizen. It was the virtual crowning of King Alcohol as monarch of America. The crown of gold should have been a crown of broken hearts with a stream of blood flowing from each to dye the coronation gown a royal purple. It was an insult to decency in that it paraded ill-gotten wealth before the millions of poor, honest, hardworking people of the nation. It was an insult to every person fighting the liquor devil, for this crowning of King Booze was done in a saloonless town. The mansion was named "Blossoms." How appropriate! God only knows how many blossoms had ripened on the faces of saloon-cured men and women to make the coronation possible. By the help of God, I'll fight this business to the finish. WANTS NATIVE SPUDS PROTECTED Secretary of Agriculture Calls Meeting to Discuss Method of Keeping Out Foreign Blight. WASHINGTON, Dec, 1.---To protect tho United States from foreign potato diseases and to find a way in which some of the foreign crop may be brought in because of this year's scant native supply, estimated to be almost 100,000,000 bushels short, Secy, of Agriculture Houston Saturday issued a call for a public meeting here Dec. 18 to discuss the subject. The call directs particular inquiry as to whether "it is possible to safeguard this country from known foreign potato diseases by introductions under permit of potatoes which have been inspected and pronounced free from infestation by foreign experts." JAKE DAUBERT IS LEADER OF N. L. Brooklyn's Star First Sacker Leads National League Hitters---Scoops Carey Heads Base Stealers. NEW YORK. Dec. 1.---Jake Daubert, Brooklyn's star first baseman, is the National league's champion batsman for the season of 1913. The official batting averages of the league, made public Sunday, show him third on the list with an average of .350 in 139 games. Of the two men nominally out-ranking him, however, one, Yingling of Brooklyn, is a pitcher and took part in but 40 games, while the other, Chas. McDonald of Boston, who played in but about half the season's games, is no longer a major leaguer, having been released to an International league team some time before the close of the season. Yingling, the top man, batted .383 and McDonald .355. Carey Heads Base Stealers. Cravith of Philadelphia is second
