Sunday night, trie following serraon*on ; tins **lteme?iy for Intemperance**: Having briefly hinted at the nature ( and evils of intemperance in our last ! Sunday night's sermon, let us now no I tice- - 1 What should be done with it? We I know something should be done with: i it. We know something should be j 'i done, for our country is full of its dead- ; i ly iniluence. The serpent is coiled on ; I every corner and lurks in every street. j Shall we put a gold ring around this I serpent's neck, change his name and , j call him High License? It ?U?s not j i make any difference whether the devil ; I comes with pitch-forks a:iu knives or I i whether he comes as an angel of light, \ he is i he same devil. This nigh license ; | is only the same old serpent in another i fojrm. i lizard of an Irishman who was st'.:ng by a yeilowjacket.

I am somewhat that w.iy by liquor. ; He may change his name but lie is the' j j same poison at last. If I hnve to be kiiird it does not make any difu?ei^a; : wh *tl:cr 1 am knocked hi the heaiHvith j a wooden mall cr pierced lo the heart! with the finest golden sword of the; j land, death is the same. W hat snail we do with this old ser- 1 pent f Kill him of course, i'hat is ? x- j act iy what weTConld do with a snake1 xth.it was killing our chiUlrei and j friends. Now what will kiii him? ; 1 Why nco!iii!iTiox. Xothing else will j [doit. We pray for deliverance, but it ; is at lukUd. ( *od is saying to the people iofithis land: ."As ti.oii wilt m> be it; done unto thae,** and if whiskey does ? not go uk of our Hdrn it is because we d.uv't want it to go. it seems that some rn-.-pIe (prof?*aseU christians too) wi-uhl I ramer keep intoxicating liquors in their midst if it does destroy many cf the test characters and send thousands oi souls to a drunkard's grave ami a ? il-'viTd^hell. How any individual can V a consistent christian and advo v*te intrinperat.ce is a question the so lution oi w nicli is foreign tome. It we do not ativoejite it we must lie in lav,;roi j?io;i uiuui lusoiue iorm. :*>ynies;iy \ j.e\ bi licVf in prohibition. 'I Ur fact is just this, if \\> don't behr\r in proiii itzon we don't believe in theliibie. Fur the is a prohibition book*. The ten commandments are strictly prohibi tory l4ws: and nearly ail of our civil Uws.AvIueh are based mainly on the lJible. are prohibitory laws, and yet in : th>* lace of this. say we don't belic\ e in prohibition. It is absnsd. There itas never been a time when ^iifjstfanj? oi all denominations were so ;.r( u>ed on this subject as they ax enow, i' he churches instead of l>eing houses of refuge !cr the drtinkar.i's and liquor dealers have become a fort, aa<j turned ! fht-jr guns uija.ust them. They are saying to the drunkaru and dealer: "forsake your sins and our doors are optn to \ouT but you can't come unless you do.'f ihe preachers are pouring hot shot into the enemy alF aiong the [ line. Then in addition to that the wo men are 03 our side. You know w h?n a wvman sets her head and heart on anything >ou had just as well give ud .it once aiM ?'> adon.* with her. It is said t'r.ut the man is the head of the amilv. but ti e woman is the neck and. iuslthrus the head any way she pleas es. 'l'lie women are working and pray ing ? ?r protection, snd intemperauce will have to yield to their power. I woiiid like to see the noMe women of our Un<i vdfc&ou the prohibition <jues- : tion once. We cou id put up ouj tern- ! peranre frig next day with the motto: ; "The Lord reigrcieth," let the earth re joice" Many a j\n>r starving child's mouth wouki again be tilled with bread. : and raauy a lUt it- shivering1 back would ! b? clot bed. ar.d scores of destititfe. ! wretdiw, miserable Urunkard's homes 1 Irould becheerrd with the bright sun shine of prosperity, (iod help u> to tak* care of the world Thou hast given us. \\But the best of all, God is with us. | Xj ? ;! f i - i v - - ? ?? It is a fight of liojuie against the saloon, right against wror??; <iixl against the devil, ami we are bound to v. in. The liquor men have had their day. They have oppressed our nation, ruined many noble lives and desolated thousands of happy homes, ?ti i sent millions >ji souls int j an eterui-.i ;ieli, ~ Where their worm dieth not and Lne tire js not quenched." J5ut let us notice some objections to ! orohibitiv 11: 1. I: don't prohibit Then why do; the liquor men light so hard against it? j it seems to me they would not object i to prohibition at all If it does not pro- j hibit. They could send aad get as much ! as they wanted and sell it without pay ing 8500 license. It does prohibit av.d -they know it. Of course ir the citizens ! are not ambitious enough to stand up | for their rights it wiiJ not prohibit, but I if they have good back-bones in them it will prohibit, and that satisfactorily to... j I know this to be a tact severely teste*!. 2. I am opposed to prohibit i? <n unless | v,e can prohibit it all over th . world at I once, ile is a "crank" certanny, who j expects to destroy as great an evil as j intern ??erance is throughout tiie world j at one time. ?Su.ip.>se tlie Apostles had ? said, "well we can's get all the world ^converted at one time, thereto re we will ! rVot try to do an} tiling, but will oppose j thfe Oospel." We would have l>eeii in ! dark heathenism to-day. But, tli^Jik f icx.1, they worked litrie by l.tlie astr>ey had opportunity, and uovv the Oospel is j i>eing carried to every nation on the globe. We must not expect to throw j the prohibition doctrine into the world like a bomb shell into an army, but let ; it grow trraduaiiy as leaven, until it j covers the eutire earth. To do this we i mutt begiu m our towns, counties and i states and work up to the capital and j ttupn clinch it forever. 3. it would injure our business, (iodj have mercy on us if the business of iliis i country is to be kept up by the liquor 1 traffic. That was the plea in Iowa, j One of the politicians said in a speech: ! "What will you ail do for a maikct ft:r your corn out here if you have prohibi tion, you can't distill it into whiskey then. *\ hat will you do? An old lar tn r standing in the crowd holloed out: "I'll tell you what we'^ ill do with it. We will have a few more hogs and a little less h? li out here.'* 1 don't know j any body's business it would hurt ex- j eept the liquor dealer's? aud the more | we can do of that the lietter. We don't owe them anything, they were lattened ! at our crib. When the Queen of Mada- 1 gascar ordered the whiskey trallic to be stopped, the saloon keepers and whole sale men asked her to i ay tlieni for their losses. "Very well," Said she, "you pay uie for the injury you have done the men, women aud' children among my people and I will settle all your losses. ' if our liquor dealers would pay for all the injury they have done with liquor it would break them up money, body and soul. If God's people have to call on the devil to help theui run their lit tle business, I think it is high time for them to throw up the armor and sneak off to some old hollow log and hide their faces forever, llut it is a well tested fact that where prohibition is] enforce ; business is more flourishing than where liquor is so abundantly sold. For example, one out of many. Europe is a country where intoxicating liquor is sold freely, and until lately it was supposed that there was not a sin gle village, however small, that did not have its wine or beer shops. Some mtntion of this supposed fact, how ever, has brought out the real fact that there are several villages where the people are all voluntary total abstainers, and where, as a consequeuce, no wine or l*er shop can make its ap pearance. One of these villag? s is a very prosperous little place in the rv gion known as the Moltthal, in Aus tria, another such Is the little village of Buc in the district of Bel fort, France The fact is noted that Buc is i>n?? of lie richest villages f<?r its nomiLtiou in France. Its inliabitaiits are mostly ? ti gaged in agriculture and arc ani??nj/ the most industrious and contented peopl, of the vrorid if \ou want to s- e poor town go where they arc tv? il sup plied with liquor and yon have found ii as a general thinjr Liquor ins? tad of beinjf a heij? to business is a diea? ed curse 4.
