" Just how the modem Yankee Doodle sounded as It U was read over In the good old Mclhodlstlcnl sl > lc by the Christian minister before It was lustily sung la song and chorus hy the lambs of his flock. 1 am not In formed , or have I bearu whether the author was encored nnd catlod up to the pulpit for popular applause , hut trjo It Is that the animus of tbo sonir portrays so faithfully the mock and forbearing tactics of the Women's Christian Temperance union nnd the prohibi tion supporters in this neck ot tbo woods thnt It would look selfish foryouandlto keep nil these "good" thing * nnd modern ways of christianizing the state to ourselves , hence I send It to jou for publication know ing thnt the brilliancy of the prohibition pool does not often pot o chance to ornament the rt-lncs of TUB OMAHA B .E. I ha veal wajs lived under the Impression .hat n oresldinf ? ofllcer should preserve order and prevent bid conduct , % llllHeatioii and abuse , both among the audlenco and on the part of the debaters , but In those modern dnjs of Intolerance and prohibition It Is said to make a man look like u "gooso" If ho rules a speaker out of order who has Just sent his opponent on a long Journey to bell , and twice 'uslde five sentences called him a liar. Just how a "goose" resembles a "bull" my memory docs not servo to Inform me. There would cem to be nbout as little familiarity botvv een the two as there H in difference bo- twctn n hen-peeked prohibitionist nnd a man built in Cod'a Imaje , ono able mentally nnd phjslcally to see the right nnd to do It. 1 do not intend to say anything nbout the grammar used nor jot about Hrother WjcofT going ahead in the twice told language of the j > oct in the first line of two verses , nor Is their much information conveyed by the modern Yankee Doodle In the statement that wine Is "Hoscv" nnd "Koscy" Is the \vlne. Scripture written some jears ago contains the same Information nnd the purity of "Adam d alo" is not striking ! ) conspicuous. If Adam did anj thing It vv.is to pollute the stream , hence It Is not much vender we see such muddv productions as this modern Yan- Itco IJoodlo has begotten I'rcedoin of ttiou ht is a commodity the average prohibitionist does not permit In this vlcinitv , but DA I have been a resident of Nebraska now for twenty-two years , I h.ive a few thoughts I want to ex press while I am upon this subject. Tlrat , intemperance is n great evil nnd all avenues leading to such a public thoroughfare should be carefully guarded , but It is not true that a coercive measure is the only icincdy that can reform this gigantic evil , wo arc all apt to bo mistaken in ou r treatment and application of lemedles for the cure of defects In another. To tro.it any subject Intelligently , study to obtila aknovvledgoof thocasels first neccs- sarv , and thengoodjudgment based upon that knowledge must bo applied and each particular case then treated ns its merits and needs demand But hero during the present temperance agitation a most icmarkablo dose of treat ment has bcon discovered by our prohibition friendsthat is warranted by them to cure the evils of cvcrv single case and vvioo out the whole iMflluHlty Veil , If a pitient willingly takes his medicine and believes in its reme dial qualities , in tint in cnt It would look as though tl" ro was some prospect for his cure , but thciois a big majority of mon who are neither Intemperate nor sick and they object to having this pill of prohibition thrust clew n their tlnoats , whether or no. Then again , some of tlie sick who nro willing to take mild treatment , e\en if it does take a little longer to effect a cure , are strongly opposed to pro hibition and refuse to take it for treatment. So this brings us to this state of facts : That nn evil exists , is admitted , but vvo are di vided upon the methods for correcting it. The position of the prohibitionist on the liquor question Is 110 moro tenable than would bo mine , provided 1 should issue a p reclamation citine tbo fact that evils of va rious nature existed on caith and that on and after such a date I commanded them to cease. Does any prohibitionist think they would cease for my order , and would vou not find ways to slyly evade my proclamation and do a peed deal as you pleased whether 1 liked it or nott That's human nature Intemperance is only ono form of evil that was on earth long before jou and I cnnio here , and will exist hero long after wo are gone. Admitting that wo hadtho right to prohibit the manufacture and the sale of intoxicating beers and liquors , and suppose , for the sake of the argument , that it was pos sible to keep men from obtaining thorn , do you imagine that men would all bo saints or very materially better than tnoy are now ? Is it not probable that opium , morphine and various drugs and possibly new decoctions to feast the appetite \vould fill the place of these from which v.o had become prohibited and the same amount of o\il exist in the world , although It might bo pioduccd from a differ ent source. "True it is that evil existed ia the world before rmn , nndwith all our boasts towards progress and the millenlum , It won't do for us to shut oureyes to the know ledge that tlio spirit of evil is just us much a resident amongst us as ho was in the garden of Para dise. A higher power than man's created all things , and It mas- not bo wise for man to at tempt towipe out one of the most ancient methods the devil employs to work out his own ends. It Is n faU that the moro you toy with some evils the moro rank nnd bold they become. Mv- own observation through life has been that if you would do good you would hotter com mence on the young and educate them against an evil you want them to shun. The young mind receives Impressions easily and tno young sphit retains nnd practices what the mind receives. The most illiberal advocates of radical reform that wo have , are men who sadly , too late in life , began to pr"ctlco what they now preach. Far bettor and much more credlublo would It have been to their early training if they had al- vvajs lived a temperate life and not been compelled by reason of the very excess of their evil tendencies either to reform or die. Such men are alvvajs illogical , and , to make atonement as they suppose for all the evil pievlously done , lly to the other extreme and , blindly condemning all men and Judging them bad as they themselves once weie , settle it in ttieir weak minds , and dcvclopo into one Idea men and terminate a precarious existence by becoming w hat are gcnomllj termed "cranks. " I know you will pardon these somewhat lengthy views. Ordinarily my business takes all my tlmo , but oven the bull will turn if : you plant the led Hag in his face and woo to the man ho impales. So if I am to bo forced into the arcu i for holding honest convictions and then sung In doggerel psalmody I hope my temperance filends will at least invite me to the feast and I'll try to spare a llttio time for the entertainment. entertainment.W.

MINISTERS FALL1SG IN LINE , One After Another Denounces Prohibition and Holt's "field Daj , " IION , J , L. WEBSTER ON THE SUBJECT , A. I'rolilh ' . Spy's Attempt at .Bribery Disgusted r"emale Workers Voting Employes Capital- 1st "Workers. Continuing in his search for clerical opin ion on the subject of November 3 being observed - served as a prohibition Held , day by the churches , and a collection being taken to de fray tlio campaign expenses of the party , as projected In a resolution passed at a recent meeting of the ministerial union , a BEIJ re porter called on Dr , Duryca , pastor of the First Congregational church , who spokoas follow * : I will not support the resolution. I did not vote tor It because I hold that a minister haq no right to interfere In such u matter without consulting Jils congregation. Iho resolution was passed through the votes of ' , hose who wanted It , and those uho did not tvunt it held their tongues. It was brought ip during the last few moments of ho meeting and many , Ilka myself , lid not like to breed dissension by speaking .gainst . It. Altogether it was a one-sided of- air and did not reoei\e the support thntsomo if the clergy accredit It. Our people arc not in vroiathy with an.Uhingof the sort and I ihnll not preach for prohibition on the day named , nor shall I take up a collection for the cainpilgn fund " Her. V II. W nrtiechert , pastor of the 'irst German 1'rco K\angelical church , sold Having l > cen repeatedly urged by friends of he church and citizens at largo to givd to the public through the local papers for I novcr permit myself to use my pulpit forsucha pur pose my opinion on tins all-absorbing polit ical question uhioh is to bo decided nt the coming election , I reluctantly comply with their % v Ish and briefly state niv \ lews. No ecclesiastical law can force a minister of the gospel to bo foror against prohibition , neither 1st heron law of our commonwealth which can forcon man tooto for ono or the other , nor will the common sense of u fieo man sub mit to be compelled to do so. Is'ot all resolu tions passed by a ministerial meeting nro vise , nor can they piss a dividing line in the chimb , that is on the prohibition question , neither have thov a ncht to meddle with one another's opin ions or conscience. Has the world not already been crowded too mnch Into the church < Shall this political question , or the word of God bo hi ought before the people ple tosa\e thcinl 'in the first the law If place , present , car ried out literally , is nil that can reasonably bo expected. Second , prohibition is a farce , for Ills not in accordance with scripture or com mon sense and humanity. I , therefore , as a minister of the gospel , declare , as I have done privately to the friends from the be- dnnlng of the movement of prohibition , that us long ns I shall bo in the ministry I will never in any form or manner support the campaign of prohibition. My reasons there fore tire as follows. Jesus , the Divlno Mnstcr. when hero on earlh never meddled with things hlco prohioition , neither should His servants ; for their duty is to preach Christ mid Him crudlled. " Kcv.V. . R. Henderson sild "I am not a member of the minlsterhl union , but I will say that the association is not an ecclesias tical authority in an ) sense and has no right to map out a programme for ttio churches to follow. The resolutions pissed by that body in relation to services on Sunday , November S , arc not worth the naperthey were written upon. The so called ministerial association is not really a representative gathering of the cleigy ot the city , that is to say there arc a largo number of our representative ministers who do not belong to it and who do not ex pect to connect themselves with It , co'nse- quently I don't think that No\omber2 will be observed as the resolutions directed. " Hon. John It. Webster's Opinion. Hon. John L. Webster has an opinion , too , on Mr. Holt's "prohibition field day" resolu tion. In his speech at Boyd's ' opera house Saturday night Mr. Webster said : "I that it Is the see reported through pub lic pi-ess that certain ministers of the gospel , iu the city of Omaha , propose to hold a pro hlbition tally in their respecti\e churches on the Sunday pre\ ions to election and to take up a public contribution to aid the prohibition pai ty. It is ono of the fundamental prmci pies of our government that" the church and the state shall remain separate , iloro seems to be a combined effort on the part of certain ministers of the churches In n measuao to un dertake the control of the state government and to add an amendment to our fundamental law. " "it should bo remembered that the prohibi tion party in this state is a political organic tion , It assembled in a state content ion. It nominated a state ticket. It is undertak ing to elect and fill all the state ofllces , and control the full administration of state atTuirs. "I have boon requested on two occasions to speak against prohibition on the Sabbath day , but I have refused to do it for the rea son that there are sunicleut worldly dnvs , during the week , to talk politics and that the Sabbath day should not be desecrated by any such proceeduro. "Ask ono of these ministers if lie would allow mo to stand In his pulpit and hold n political rally aeainst prohibition andin favor of the Hon. L. D Richards for govei nor. Ho would answer , No. Ask one of these same ministers if ho would allow the Hon. A. J. Poppleton the presiding oftlcor of this moot ing to speak from the same pulpit , on that same Sunday , against prohibition and in favor of Hon. J E. lloycl for governor , and ho would answer , No. [ Applause ] "Tho state out of kindly consideration for Chilstianlty exempts all chinch property trom taxation. The business men of the com munity , by their contribution' , have built these churches. The business men , by their contributions , support these ministers In their vocation. I want to sound the warning to these ministers , who propose to tuin their churches and their pulpits into a , political machine , tlint If they persist in that course and advocate a political policy which is de structive to the business interests of this community and of the prosperity of this state and of the welfare of this state , that the time has arrived for the business men to withhold their contributions from the sup port of sucli churches and of the support of such ministers. I know this \ast audience will echo that sentiment. [ Vociferous ap- pluuso. ] Sloro Attempted Hrlbery. The disclosures which have , from time to time , been made in these columns regarding the attempted bribery by prohibition hire lings of legistiars , census enumerators and other ofllecrs , have driven some of the pestif erous sneaks from the field , but some of them still remain. They continue undaunted In their dirty woik , though daily denounced by the citizens \\homtuey Inlllct their pies- en co , In the first district of tbo Sixth \vnnl , recently , another bold at tempt nt bribery was mado. Ono of the spies called on Dennis Line , ono of the reg istrars. It was after the copy of the regis tration bad been made and hung in the win dow of the registry. The list of voters was carefully road and copied but thq spy wanted something more. "Where are the registry books , " asked the fellow of Mr. Lane. "Why I" ho was asked. "Because I would like to see them , " was the reply. What do you want to sco them , for ! " "Well , I'd Just llko to make a copy of them. " "What do you want to make a copy of them for. Is that ccrtitled list not good enough for j ou 1' ' ' 1 ho fellow hesitated and finally Lane re marked : "I'll tell jouwhat you want those books 1'or. You want to mutilate them , but vou cun't do it this time. " The charge did not seem to annoy I ho fel low and , becoming friendly and confidential , the sneak replied : "I'll bo honest with jou. I want to see these books very badly. You're ' politician enough to know that I do want to see them for a purpose. Now , I'll cive yon f.V ) , spot cosh , if jcu let mohavothein.oThat's more than you can make by holding the books. Come , let mo have them. " Mr. Lane , it is said , can adapt his English to such occasions and did so with a vigor which \\ould have terrified a being possessed of some self respect. But it did not phnso the prohibition sneak , who skulked from thbi registry with with the air of a robber whoso scheme has been frustrated , but who consoles himself with tbo fact thattliero remains other vic tims with uhom ho tnajbo more successful. This overture has brcn made to other regis trars beside Mr. Lane , and so far ns Is known , \ \ Ithout success ) It Is not bellovecl that it will ba able tw , seduce from the path of rectitude and self-respect any registrar who raiiv have been' ' given charge of the books. Nevertheless It is the duty of nil supervisors of registration to guard agnlnst these frauds. Under i\o circumstance should the roeUters bo allowed to pas ? out of the control of the rcguliMly appointed ofllccra. If they should be. it will bo found that they will bo tampered with4 la such n manner as possibly to throw out the lists so doctored on the day of election. Crest fill Ion ronmlo Prolilbi There was a secret meeting of prohibition ists In a small room on Sixteenth street , near Farnam , u few dnjs ago. It was attended by- half u dozen fruc-nliIskylLea , and three of them did not own a cent's worth of real estate In this city , Nevertheless , they resolved that high license w as destined to ruin the grout stntooE Nebraska and they were In dutj bound to work to have U supplanted by-prohibition They admitted thnt they could not go to the polls and work , because the } would thus run counter to public opinion und perhaps Injure their business , the Mite central committees would send in some fellows to work ut the polls , but these ought to bo supplemented by some from Omaha Finally , It was decided to appeal to the ladles. Two days later , there was a mooting of women held In the same place , ten of tncni being present. They \oiecdtho opinions of the free-\\hlsky husbauds and lo\crs andie- solvcdto appeal to their lady filcnil * to in duce their consorts uud beaux to vote for prohibition. Monday this little band entered upon their self-imposed task and continued it lor n couple of hours. By that time they had become tired of the business and disgusted with themselves. At some of the residences nt which they called they were met by determined women , who told them that their husbands did the voting and that they ( thehusrnnds ) gcncially know how to vote for themselves. They wuroalso told that their nusbantlj were iiutl-prohibi- tionists and that they would not attcmnt to dissuade them from voting their convictions and ns their Interests dictated In some pi ices they were not trotted with , this respect , being told to mind their own , business. In ono place the mother of a larco family and the queen of n homo iu which there is nothing left to oe desired , felt so insulted tit the overtures made hei by these misguided l > coplo that she ( jutetlj walked to the hall door , opened It and held it uhllo the canvass ers reined , not dcigninu to hold coavcrso with them upon the subject ut all. Closing on mention Dny. At the last meeting of the council a resolu tion was adopted recommending the mar- chants and manufacturers of this city to close their stores and shops on election diy in order that all their employes might bo afforded all t'io ' time possible to both vote and work against prohibition.
