THE THING TO CONDEnN.
(CONTINI'KI) FKOM PAGE 1 )
“demon," alcohol. It never hurts
any one if they let it alone. It,
of itself, is innocent. Its harm is
in its abuse. Millions of people
are greatly benefited by its exist
ance. If it was not created for a
great and good purpose we have a
right to doubt the wisdom of God.
M ater is a good thing, yet if we
submerge ourselves in it, it will
drown us. Should we curse the
water, or try to avoid the act' If
a man is hungry and eats enough
to kill himself, should we curse
the bread, or condemn the act'
Where alcohol has shun its hun
dreds, fanaticism in other ways
has slain its thousands. Where
alcohol has caused one tear to be
shed, bigotry and misguided zeal
have rung tens of thousands from
the eyes of the innocent. Well
my five minutes is about up.
Say, esteemed friend, you can
talk the insurance better than you
can the prohi dialect. We should
praise the works of the Creator;
at least not curse them.

increase is kept up it will soon
take third place. Forest camp of i
