last election t were professed ed Christians Men should f be Christians at the ballot box as else elsewhere elsewhere where Ninetynine nine out of every voted at the last election to put the saloon on the same legal footing as the school and anti the church Men were so 50 wrapped up In the great work of pro hog bristles hides tin Un plate platte and such other stuff that they could not give a time to the pro protection protection of the homes the children and f the honor of the churches In this way 99 per cent of the men of the nation laid down while the present adminis administration administration II walked into power over their prostrate bodies bodis bod s sI I There is something wrong in the nation said the speaker when 7 I Christian voters oters will league themselves with the saloon power powei I when the influence of or a Christian min ruin minister minI I ister later of the gospel is not worth a row of oC pins compared with rth that of or a saloon saloonkeeper saloonkeeper saloonkeeper keeper when thousands of Gr our best boys are being foully murdered in the army by the canteen backed by the Methodist president in the White House Housel l Attack on McKinley This attack upon President McKinley seemed to be greatly enjoyed by the audience and the applause was wa hearty and general The speaker then pro proceeded i tb to diagnose the nation to deter mine what was as the trouble The doc doe tor he said went over the symptoms of a 0 patient to determine what ailed him and anO ruled out all diseases until there was but one left and then knew that that was what aile ailed l the man The trouble in this country countr that caused it to vote for Cor saloons right along is not due to the cooks as some argue the scolding wives the doctors doctor the preach pr ach ors ers the mayor the governor the pres ident the emigrant the politician or the saloonkeeper is not to blame At this point the speaker advised Chris hris tian Uan voters oters to analyze themselves and In that way locate the trouble This country will never be saved by the tile preachers asserted Mr 11 Woolley Wooley I and the statement was applauded There Them are not enough preachers of oC the th right sort People have been trying too long to save the country with preachers Fifty church members get gel together hire a preacher set him to work and then go home and wash their hands of or the whole business and leave the preacher and the th Lord to hustle and save the country countr Who Is to Blame The saloonkeeper Is not to blame If men were to be measured by b a sin single sIngle single gle action the saloonkeeper who buys sells and drinks whisky Is better than the Christian who votes whisky There is no moral difference between selling whisky and voting the right to sell sei whisky The saloonkeeper Is the better betterman betterman betterman man of ot the two because he does dots not profess l to be a n man He makes no excuse for his nasty business He Hels is at least free from hypocrisy He divides es his proceeds into three parts one part for the general govern ment and th tin way it works is illus by the bottles of or liquid civilization sent from Milwaukee in one vessel to Manila ManUa In the gin mills established in the Philippines with Old I Glory floating over Oyer every one or of them in lathe the gin mills started in Cuba in the last twelve months with Old Glo Gb ry lY floating over every one of them and the whole business endorsed by the Methodist president Christians Christiana Blamed The speaker told of how another third of the saloonkeepers gain san goes to the local government and while the saloon is 15 damning men the church c Is trying to save them and both forces were working side by side In la politics The Christian goes down on his knee on the morning of election day and prays God to send down the blighting mildew I of heaven on the saloon and then he gets u ui 11 and goes to the polls and votes for that thal same saloon The saloonkeeper Is Js much the man lier bier man of the two The Christian ChrIstJan vir tue of ot the community is bought by the saloonkeeper for so much honest money and Is hung up in the city hall hail to be scoffed at by every passerby At this Dont ont Mr lUr Woolley took up the parties Your party is rotten he said because you are in it If you get out of it it will arise and be f
