This is a land of everything that Is

of beneficial Influences, and of liberty

Culls Happy Hollow Sleepy.
Mr. Sunday aroueed a roar of laughter
hen he Inadvertently referred to
"Happy Hollow" an "Sleepy Hollow." He
corrected himself when prompted by
"Itody."

Is "Drink, drink, drink." Supposing I

wash tub to grind her life away In order
that I might spend what aha could earn
for my booze.
Our great opportunity Is to step in

thing against this awful curse.
I wish I oould unlock the door, gentle
men, that conceals the secrets of this
damnable charncl house, but I am here
to tell you air, that God never gave any
man Imagination powerful, nor Hps nor

Oh, we boast of our independence, but

an Iron grip.
Tho whole saloon business Is run on
a financial basis. There Is nothing moral
to commend It.
Local option has helped. H has re

business Is a curse, and it Is a man's
business to smash It. I hope on my tomb,

why He didn't do that; but I know He

I don't fear the opposition of the saloon

that the man who deliberately votea for

I advocate a universal opposition af slnst

Idea that a man needs to drink in order
to stimulate his brain and body Is a lie.

During the sermon Mr. Sunday showed
how an honest-to-goodneea detective

He said there is an Intimate connection

'Morality eliminates disease. Most all
d seascs of today are the result of sin.

surprised what little disease there would

Accusing- Conscience Pnlnfnl.
He reminded his hearers that there is

accusing conscience. And ho urged all to
remember It is stupendous folly to think
it pays to do wrong, "for eln ultimately

During the evening the evangelist made

Anything I can do to deatroy the
liquor business, cost what It uia, I will
do. I'll pay any prloe. I'll go anywhere,
I'll do anything that's right, or I'll give
anything In order to have put on the
saloon the curses of the Almighty God.
Only Potter s tei. the prisons and
the asylums are ready to receive the
graduates of th saloon. The moneyless
man is despised and rejected. There
seems to be one set of legislation for
the rich and another for the poor. Very
often tho question Is. "Have you any

erate drinker. He acts with other things
with common sense, but not a drunkard-
when you start as a moderate drinker.
Ask a drinking man if boose Is Injuring
him and he'll say. "No," even after he
has become a drunkard.
I tell you if a man makes a mistake
he haa sense enough to learn tho lesson

the second time on that same banana peel
unless he's a fool.
Some folks ask, What are you going to
do if you are defeated? I will fight lt

fight it in private, I will fight It in
public.
You and I wilt not dip our flag in that
dirty gang. Compromise? No, sir, I have
not a drop of compromise blood In my
veins
Men ot Omaha never. I know no defeat.
I'll fight it in club or lodge.
A great many will be asked to vote
against It or do something against it
and then will say: "I have no particular
Influence." If I were to tell you that was
true you would gat hot.
So when you tell me that you haven't
any Influence, that may be true. If you
have anything against the liquor business
Stand forth and tell It.'
Taxes Higher Where galooas Are.
Bomebody Says, it will diminish the
revenue. Is that so? For every dollar of
revenue that that gang handa out of their
dirty money, that they hand back, that is
stained with the blood of men and women
and child-en, W'e have to go down in
our pocketa and pay out J20 to pay for
the saloona and grog shops.
We have got to pay down 20 for every
dirty one that they give you. They are a
generous gang. They are lying awake
nights figuring out how generous they
aro.
Read your tax receipts and see what
It costs you. You don't have to read It In
the Jails and penitentiaries or the Insane
asylums, but read It In your tax receipts.
Thero Isn't a town in Amtrlca where
the taxes are hlshor than where the sa

somebody says to me, "Bill, are you fair
to the saloon?"
Will I be fair to the robber who goes
through my house and steals and robs?
Will I be fair to a highwayman who
shoves a gun under my nose ana ae-
turn? There Is only one attitude that I
take against the liquor business to bell
with it
The people who are oposed to the anti
liquor movement are like the Idaho man
who stole some bacon. After he was ar
rested be secured an attorney, but the
latter did not want to take the case be
cause bis client wss guilty. But he was
persuaded to go ahead. !
Five witnesses testified against the de
fendant, making a strong case, and tho
lawyer did not put up s, strong argument.
Much to hla surprise th Jury returned a
verdict of not guilty.
"What do you suppose was the reason
for that?" asked the surprised lawyer.
"Ten of those Jurors had part of the
bacon," the man answered.
There are too many Interested in the
booie business brewer, politician, owner
of the building. When you ht th saloon
the whole street Jingles like a string of
sleigh bells. Hold a dollar In front ot a
man's nese and he becomes blind. . .
So many absurd things are offered a
arguments for the liquor business.
"What am I going to do? It Is a busi
ness my husband has been In for fifteen
years, and he has never worked and don't
know how to work. I don't know what
I'll do." That's what a woman asked
another woman.
And this woman said to her: "I will
tell you. My husband haa spent all of his
money In your husband's saloon for fif
teen years, and I have had to wash for a
living, and my husband la now working
and will save the money and take care
of me and the children, and now I wop't
have to do the washing any more, and
you can have my Job."
All right, boys; there has been many a
mother that has washed for a living. Just
Chang it about.
Every barroom la a recruiting station
for a hell, a rathole Into which the work
Ingman shoves his wages. But the saloon
will be put out of business, snd by the
men who have patronized It.

Wharton a Worker
In Behalf of the
Sunday Movement
John C. Wharton, postmaster, is a tire
less booster for "Billy" Sunday. He has
een doing some quiet, unobtrusive "per
tonal work" ever alnce long before th
evangelist oumc to Omaha and h haa
produced some real results.
Mr. Wharton lunches about once a week
with the Omaha National bank officials
In the bank's private lunch room, to
gether with a few prominent business
men not connected with the bank.
The subject of flundsy came up long
i.efore he cam to town and opinion wa
divided between those who were for and
thone against him. Mr. Whartua stood
as the defender of the evangelist and he
wasn't without support.
When "Hilly" arrived Mr. Wharton se
cured some tickets and then ho went
iUifcUy, but persistently, after those who
iiad been against the evangelist and his
ways. He'd call them up by phone nd
invite them to go with him snd hear
"Billy." Some were obdurate. Tbey said
they didn't want to waste an evening Its
teulng to a "mountebank." Then It was
thtit the postmaster's suavity of manner
and diplomacy of action were brought
Into play. Invariably he overcame ob
jections. Every time he carried .off hla
prey to th tabernacle.
A well-known banker who had been
very much on the opposition side of the
argument sat beside Mr, Wharton at th
tab" on evening, before the sermon
as half over he nudged th postmastsr
hUpered:
That man's all right. He's sincere.
ve changed my opinion."
Mr. Wharton asserts it's better fun
than golf or hand ball.
