An Appeal for Prehibitiew.

I heard a young man in a railway car- riage tell his own story, while conversing m the Maine law. He said :—

‘** My father was a drunkard for years : my mother was a strong-minded, energetic woman, and with the help of the boys managed to keep the farm free from debt When my father signed the pledge that which pleased her most, next to his having signed it, was that she could tell him that there was not a debt nor a mortgage on the farm. My father used to drive into the city, about eight miles distant, twice a week, and | recollect my mother saying to me :—~

‘**I wish you would try and persuade your father not to go any more. We don’t need that which he earns ; and, George, I’m afraid of temptation and old asso- ciates.”

“ch,” eld: 1 father’s all right.”

One evening we had a heavy load, and were going home, when my father stopped at one of his old places of resort, and gave me the whip and the reins. I hitched the horse, tied up the rains, and went in afterwards.

The landlord said: ‘*] am glad tu see you; how do you do? You are quite a stranger. How long is it since the tem- perance whim got hold of you ?”

“Oh, about two years,” said my father. **Well,” said the landlord, ** you see we are getting on pretty well,” and they chat- ted together for some time. By and by he asked my father to have something to drink.

**Oh, but \’ve got a little temperance bitters,here,” said the landlord, ‘* that tem- perance men use,” and they acknowledge that it purifies the blood, especially in warm weather. ‘Just try alittle.” And he poured out a glass and offered it.

I stepped up and said: ‘** Don't give my father that?’ To which he replied :

‘*Well, boys aren’t boys hardly now-a- days; they are got to be men amazingly early, If I had a boy like you I| should think I would bring him down a little.”

‘*What do you think, Mr. Myers ?”

“Do you bring that boy to take care of you?”

That stirred the old man’s pride, and he told meto go and look after the horses. He sat and drank till,10 o’clock, and every time the landlerd gave him drink, | said :

**Don’t give it to him.”

At last my father rose up against me—he was drunk. When he got up to the waggon, I drove, My heart was very heavy, and | thought of my mother. Oh, how she will When we got about two miles from home my father said :

**f will drive.”

**No,” said I, ‘‘let me drive.”

He snatched the reins from me, fell from the waggon, and before I could check the horses the forward wheel crushed his head inthe road. I was till midnight getting his dead body on the waggon. 1 carried him to my mother, and she never smiled from that day to the day of her death. Four months after she died and we buried her.

**Now,” said the man after he had finish- ed the story, ‘‘that man killed my father, and he was my father’s murderer.”

There is not a pubilcan but can take yonr brother, your father, your son, into his dram-shop at night and make him drunk in spite of your entreaties and pray- ers, and kick him out at midnight, and you may find his dead body in the gutter. All you have to do is to take the dead body and bury it, and say nothing abeut it; for you have noredress or protection. Now, protection is what we want. Come and help us. Vote for prohibition.—John B. Gough.

**don’t think of it;

Here is the right hand of civilization. These five fingers represents the five great

Protestant denominations, Congregational, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian and Episcopal. If those five great Protestant

denominations would exclude liquor dealers from church membership they would have the power to unlock that left-hand gripped on the throat of the Republic. The Presbyterians, Methodists and Baptists occupy that position now.

“J make four propositions: First, any business which is justly excluded from church membership cannot be consistentlp legalized by Christian yotes. Second, any business which is justly excluded from church member- ship cannot be legalized without sin. Third, any business which is justly excluded from church membership ought not to be legalized by a Christian State. Fourth, any business which is justly excluded from church member- ship cannot be legalized except by the dis- loyalty of church members, and no party legalizing such a business can be consistently supported by Christian votes. So I appeal to ‘Philip Sober’ to rectify the mistakes of ‘Philip Drunk.’ While I believe in educat- ing the drinkers I also believe in sweeping away the webs into which the flies fall. —Joseph Cook.

A correspondent of the London Standard a jourval of high character, gives a new start to the war rumors which have been affecting the calm of European nations for along while. Russia’s activity on the Aus- trian frontier is now reported to be of a de- cidedly warlike appearance. Speculations concerning Russian designs on Austria is really musty, but it is kept up all the same. The other day the Vienna military organ, Die Reichswehr, had a long article upon the strength of the cavalry forces of the re- spective powers. Russia, it is stated, can muster 494 squadrons from the present for- mations, and in addition 288 squadrons can be taken from second and third levies. Austria-Hungary cannot half match such a force. In these facts the cause of all the anxiety is to be found. If Russian designs are sure and stealthy, as reported, there is just ground for unrestin Austria, German aid is not close enough at hand to save Austria if the contest should come.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

A Voice From the Water.

Str, —** Creel” has laid before you the rights of the fish-catching men in and to the streams of P. E. Island, and of the men who are paid for protecting us; und that cross man Mr. X. has told you how much more important itis that the mill-owners should be allowed to make shingles for the good of the public, than that the fish catchers should be allowed to fill their baskets again, after having emptied them.

Now, Mr. Editor, allow me to assure you we, of the trout race, with our cousins the salmons were the original owners of all these streams, and very pleasant they were in the olden time, with plenty of weeds for us to play among, and insects and worms to feed upon ; and even yet the upper por- tion of these streams are sweet and fresh, with gravelly and sandy beds, and are still inhabited by a portion of ourrace. But alas | we are and have been for many years shut off from these our natural spawning ground, by great mounds of earth and tim- ber, placed right across our rivers, just at the place where the salt and fresh waters meet, and close to these mounds, there is a continual noise and rattle proceeding from certain houses, erected there by men, and a constant stream of chewed up spruce trees, buckwheat and oat hulls, which setile on the heds of the streams, killing out the weeds and insects, and making that portion of the stream unfit for habitation.

Now Mr. Editor, I suppose it would be too much to expect that our rivers should be cleared out again for us, or even that no more dirt should be put into them, Bat surely some way might be found to enable us to get up to the comparatively clean waters above the mounds, from which for so many years we have been shut off. We often try to jump up where the water is running over the mound only to fall back again, thankful, even should we escape falling into the box set for us by the miller’s boy, at this point.

Hoping you will see what can be done for us, 1 remain, yours truly,

SaLtt Water Trovr.

The dedication of Minnesota’s monument in commeinoration of the Sioux massacre of 1862 took place at New Ulm, Minn., on Saturday.

Phe name of Ida M. Bittenbender has

been placed upon the prohibition ticket of Nebraska as acondidate for Judge of the

Jim Hall and Parson Davies had a dis-

Lord Salisbury has instructed Sir Robert Morier, British ambassador at St. Petersburg, to enquire into the recent special order of the government regarding rye shipments, and represent to the Rus- sian Government the hardship the new regulations will inflict upon shipowners.

A letter has been received at Victoria, B, C., from Sir George Baden-Powell, British sealing commissioner. Writing from Pri- byloff islands, under date 5th Augnst, he says: ‘*We have inspected all the rookeries on the Pribyloff islands. Fifty schooners have been warned and several arrested.”

A bulletin issued by the census depart- ment at Washington gives the assessed value of all property in the United States as $24,249,589,804 in 1890, an increase since 1880 of $7,346,596,261. The abso- lute wealth of the United States is com- puted to be $62,610,000,000, or $1,000 per capita.

A German authority says that almost a third of all humanity—that is 400,000,000 —speak the Chinese language. Then the Hindu Janguage is spoken by mure than 100,000,000. In the third place stands the English, spoken by almost 100,000,000. Fourth the Russian,. with 89,000,000, while the German language is spoken by 57,000,000 tongues and the Spanish by 48,- 000,000. Of the European languages the French is fifth in place.

Ocean greyhounds are all right for trans-Atlantic voyagers who are in a hurry to get there, but there is a good deal of force in the suggestion that a great many people do not go to Europe for what they tind after their arrival, but from the benefit they derive from quiet and restful ocean voyages. Inthis view of it, there is more comfort and satisfaction to be derived from a voyage on an Allan or Dominion liner than on any of the record-breakers whose fame is now being sonorously sounded.

Tests with the new Swiss rifle are said to have amply confirmed what has long been admitted that at great velocity bullets from small bore firearms produce the effects of explosive projectiles. ‘The tests were con- ducted in the presence of a number of army surgeons, and all were agreed concerning the destructive power of the rifle. The material practised on included pieces of wood filled with liquid, R flscting upon the intended use of these firearms on living subjects, the experiments are not without a rueful interest for believers in the pro- gress of our civilization,

A Montreal despatch to the Empire says : ‘Jt is understood that for some time past religious authorities have been secret- ly considering the advisability of under- taking a grand temperance crusade, the same to be carried on in in every village and town from Gaspe to River Ottawa, and from the American line to most remote parts in the north. Your correspondent has been given to understand that the con- templated crusade will be entered upon 4s soon as the eyes of the church can be fixed upon competent men to carry on the great mission. The preachers are to be selected from regular or secular priesthood and per-

haps from both.
