THE OMAHA DAILY BEE. 31WNUAY. NOVEMBER Ifi , 1891. iOmaha Unitarians Happily Oonsecrato a Handsome Oburch Structure. SERMON BY REV , LEARNED OF ST , LOUIS. " > Io Tolls of tlio ProRtosi of Thought in flic Ucll-rlous ) Voi-ld mill llio Aim of tlio Unitarian Church. The outer world was cold nnd wet , and dark and dreary yesterday morning , but within the now UniUrlan clmrcli , on Cuss street , thuro wai thu almophcro of summer tlrao , the warmth of social communion , and tlio poetry that usually accompanies the religious woi-Jhlp of rollncd and cultured people. The handsoino now edifice , a description of which appeared In Tin : SUNDAY Bnn , was ormilly doJtoatcd at 11 o'clock yesterday morning , The Intorlor of the church was neatly and bountifully decorated with bouquets of choice cut ( lowers , blooming plants , and great spreading p.ilms and other foliage , making a miniature flower garden out of the chancul lodge nnd the largo alcove recess behind the pulnlt Intended for the pipe organ nod the uholr. Yellow , whlto and pink chrysanthemums , full blown roses of different hues , skeins ot stnllax and numerous other small follago plants had boon artistically placed about the room and the result was very ploaslng. The two largo open crates In the corners of the east Mdo throw out a cheerful glow nnd the small potted plants that lined the mantels nbovo the llro pooped out Invitingly through the portieres. tlio Servians. The house was well filled with an audtonco of highly cultured and Intelligent people. Prompuy at 11 o'clock the dedicatory oxor- clses began with an oigan prelude. Hov. Newton M. Mann , pastor of the church , Kov. T. B. Forbush of Chicago , Kov. J. C. Learned of St. Louis , Uov. Mary A. Safford of Sioux City and Itabbl William Hosonau of Omaha , occupied seats hi the pulpit. The congregation joinuu In singing the old standard hymn , "From All That Dwell Below - low the Skies , " and then Habbl Koscnau read the Scripture lesson. Ho selected the LXXXIV. Psalm. Then the nudionco sang a hymn written by Rev. Newton M. Mann , the first stanza of which rends : What depth of faith In Gothic piles , With vaults aspirins ; to the sklos. \Vhnro art majestic Hits nnd smiles Upon tlio worn of centuries. Hov. Mury A. Sallord of Sioux City then offered the dedicatory prayer. After the singing of anothnr hymn the dedicatory ser mon was prcachod by Uov. J. C. Learned of Bt. Louis. The earnest divine road a part of the fourth chapter of Paul's letter to the I'hilllplans , nj nn Index to the drift of his discourse. Ho began by saying that away back In the thirteenth century Abbott Joachim had a somewhat remarkable theory of the progress that the human race should make In religious work nnd worship , and the sarnu Idea had at various times since found favor with promi nent thinkers. 'Ihrro AHCN of Rollcinun I'rocrcss. Jonchlm Hold that the progress of volition should curry the human mind through thrco distinct periods. First , the ace of the Father that ot authority and dls- clpllno ; tlion the ago of the Sou tlmt of imitation and example ; and than the ago of the Holy Spirit that of reason and rolinnco upon rovonlcd truth. Dr. Tamnlo has advocated somotliinp of the same Idea , untt we llnd it every once In a whllo in the minds of modern church members.V'o ( lad people In various churches who seem to have k'roivn away from the particular form of religious * doutrlno taught by the church tlioy selected in their younger duys. Many of tbom remain in the church , but they are not satlsllcd. They are roruly to pass on to a moro exalted view of God , but the churches have made no provision for Kradmuliifr their member.Encn denomina tion has bean organized with the thought of being a finally. Each PHI tlcular creed is perfect and con- cluslvo In Its scope , the loaders think , and the idea of graduating their members and permitting them to pass on to a form of worship nnd religious Dollof moro In Itoep- ing with their intellectual conceptions of this sucrod subject is utterly foreign to the plan of nearly all church theology. ISO church is willing to admit that it is behind the ago or ii not up to the highest enlighten ment of the century now passing. It mac- tors not if the church formula bo so ancient and fossilized that it servos only to dry up and dwarf the souls of men , its adherents will still maintain that they are following the only true and authentic way to reach the highest good for the human soul. Too many churches nro lllto a trunk with a spring lock. It Is easy to get Into them but there is no means of egress without bursting the binges. \\l\nt Uoliirlou In Kent. "That form of religion , " said the spoalccr , "is best for a man which will make him the host man. Hut ho must believe In It. H must bo a real religion to him. There are same , possibly , who cannot BOO far boyoud tlio symbols that are used to Impress the spiritual lessons upon the mind. They may rcccivo moro ro l benellt from the prcsonco of certain utensils of wood nud stone or trappings of ecclesiastical raiment than they possibly could from some moro Intellectual presentation of the truth , There are forms cf worship that nro urudo and dark , but they mav bo the best that some minds can compre hend. " The speaker then said there was danger nomctlmes in trying to transfer the wor shipper from una form of religious caromony to something moro Intellectual. People- some times throw olT old forms , but llnd that the now forms to which they have gene do not meet the requirements , and they are apt to got lost In the desert of uncertainty. Plan of Unltai-luiiltiin. Ha spoke of tlio Unitarian church faith. The Unitarian church Is intended for ttioso who have broljon away from the hackles of tbo creeds and who nro liberal enough and generous enough to allow others to hold thtilr private opinions upon disputed subjects of theology , and who doslro to Ilvo upright , earnest , honest lives nnd stand upon their porional honor in the church. Ono rule of the church was that the members should not uinko professions ur try to teach beliefs that were visionary and uncortutu at best. Too many churches 011- , pouragod people , especially tlio young , to * tunko religious professions that they did not understand nnd iievor would unuorstnnd , Ube very first step In some denominations was to teach tlm young meinbor an net of sincerity which In after ye.rs would appear to him as the rankest sort of sophistry. Tlio Unitarian church bollovod , the speaker suld , in good living , In sincerity n.nl honesty. It was nn easy matter to follow the routlno of religious performances proscribed by some of the creeds , but to Uvo good , earnest , honest liVes was u very different unuorttiklnir. The Unitarian church did uot rociuiro any sym bols or signs , or ecclesiastical ucU necessary to membership. A doslro to Uvo a ptiro , honest - est upright llro was tlio nrlmo factor in the requirements of its membership. If at any time nmombor wishoU to depart , there were no burners sot up to hold him fa tlio church. Ho could go without reproach , providing hU llfo had boon that of a sin core , honest soul searching for truth and light. The audlenco gave the speaker the most careful and undivided attention from tint to lust ot the addicss. ' UnlturlnulNiu In Oninlin. Hov. Newton M. Mann then made n state ment with reference to the church. Ho said tnoro was no authentic or connected history of the Unitarian church In Omnhu , but ho bud loaruod that U was ilr t organized in August , 1800. In the old KnlghU of Pvthms hall. The Jlrst trustees were Thomas bavis , O. P. IiiKalls , IMwnrd Wright , K. l-owo and b. IJ. Davis. Kov. lloud was the flrst min ister to tnko charge of the worlt in Omaha. The church had gone through the usual epochs of nilverslty and In 18TU the tot upon Which tbo now church stands -was purchased. Her. ( Jonoland came some years later nnd bad remained as a successful lalwrer until only u few yours ago , Huv. Maim said bo Wfu nappy to stale that the financial part of the building project Just completed had all been attended to so that ho should not bo obliged to aic the audience for nsiUtanco In that direction. The buildIng - Ing had cost something over 810,000 and the Unitarian association of Uotton had loaned the truMeoi * lfiOO. The Ho ton association had nrovlously mudo a loan of fl.fiOO on tha property so that the total amount now owlni ? wasW.OW. Ihlnhad boon loaned without interest nnd was to bo paid In Installments of ) IWO per annum. The imtornmd the member * were all well pleased with the now church.

SoaU would bo rontml. he .said , at the nominal sum of 5 , and would be assigned by lot. This will bo done nt the church this o von in p. The congregation then sang a hymn nnd Kov. J. 0.

At present It provides that no editor shall become a member whose napcr does not support ull of the demands of the alliance. The third partv mon propoio.

TO CENTRALIZE CHARITIES , Mr. Thomas Ktlpatr'ck Talks of a Plan to BjaUmatizj Giving. SOME BENEFITS OF ORGANIZATION. Money Intended to Itollevn Will No lionuor Ho .MlHappllcnl nnd Worthy Casei Will Itccolvo JJno Asslntiinuc. With the approach of wlntor the various charity societies of the city have commenced to plan for the work of the winter before them. Ono of the most active workers for the poor of the city Is Mr , Thomas Kll- patrlck of the Kilpatrlck-Knch Dry Goods company. Mr. Ktlpatrlck's chief aim Is to got the societies formed In the good cause properly organized that their work muy bo moro ofllclont. In speaking on the subject of organized charities , Mr. ICIlpatrlck said : "About ten yean ago in all the larger cities of the cast same of the prominent people in terested in charity work met In each city nnd organized what Is known as organized charltiRs. This meant that all thu smaller Institutions that were In many cases con ducted in connection with llio churches be en mo interested In this most praiseworthy central movement , and established head quarters In the poorer and more destitute parts of the city. This central orcani/allon was managed by n competent head , with per haps an assistant , and while the manager at tended to affairs at headquarters , the assist ant went over the city carefully Investigating the condition of the applicants for assistance. In Ihls way they soon hud a complete record Of the condition , wants and character of these who were applying for charity , soon discovering that , while many were genuine and worthy , others wre living , frequently In extravagance , on the charities received from pernnps a dozen or moro of these original societies. After the new plan , ot which I sponk , was well organized , the mem bers of the different churches and local charities became a visiting board or com- mlUco to Investigate further , and very often could render services to the moro worthy and unfortunate In a manner that could not bo so well done by Ibo superintendent or bis assistant. Itcncfltof Centralization. Tbo benefit of oil this organized effort was that charity bestowals were not duplicated , that tbo funds were used only for the deserving nnd expended consequently In tbo most effective und best manner. When such an institution as this is once organized the business men and char- llablo people generally would gladly con- irlbulo yearly , und then when they had calls upon them for aid would send them direct to headquarters and feel that they were doing nil concerned a good service , Instead of doing as they do now. That Is , often giving money or otcor ctarity , when they suspect that , thov are being imposed upon , and for that same reason often refuse aid when they have res- son to believe that tbo person may bo needy und worthy. "Wo have already , no doubt , in this city enough local charily nud charitable people , and Ihcro is probably enough money ex- pondcd each year in u haphazard way to moro than pay for all the wants of such an organization as I have men tioned. Thai the funds are nol used to the best advantage , and we are , no doubt , often imposed on , is palpable to all , for manv of us would rather bo imposed upon than refuse n worthy and deserving apulicant. Wo should not forgot that hero in Omaha wo offer a great inducement for population nnd at the same time our industries nro so limited that it is often dlnicult fora man to got employ ment. Consequently we have at , all time ? many people who become in u measure , perchance - chance without any fault of their own , de pendent upon the charity of others. "I am well aware of the fact that mere charity is u thing that must bo handled with great care , otherwise tbo results will ba injurious ratoor thitn beneficial. It is for this reason , amouir others , that I mention thn advantages of organized charities. It is a benefit und blessing to these who glvo ana also these who receive , whereas indiscriminate giving soon becomes a great evil nn evil tending to fraud and improvident habits. It becomes us for our own bonolit and credit , lo take advan tage of what is already so well ostablishtnl and favorably known elsewhere , nnd It would soon Do understood by tramps that Omuhu Is no asylum for thorn. Then what money wo contribute would bo dispersed through legiti mate channels aud go toward tbo support ot the worthy poor. * How to Get Started. 'This central organization would innowiso iniorefcro with the charitable feelings aud wont of the community , for as I have said , the good women who attend to those matters now , would assist as local committees , aid ing by their money and advice this grand central worn. "I sincerely trust that some of our old and prominent citizens will take an active part in organizing some such central charity , and were It only for their own comfort and con venience , if for no higher or loftier reason , I am sure that such promi nent clergymen as Dr. Duryca , Bishop New man , N. M. Mann and others , are familiar with this work , and I would llko to sco them take an active part In some such move , though I wish to bo clearly understood thai this nittttnr should in novnv bo rnnnnr.tnit with any religious body. I remember that at my old homo In Cleveland , O. , Kov. Utch- nrd Gilmour , the Catholic bishop of the diocese cese , was most conspicuous in starting what is now a well established organization on the plan heroin outlined. "Wo have had In our city a very humble but earnest worlc of thu kind in What Is known as the Tenth Street mission. It has boon managed largely by tbo personal devotion ana efforts of Mrs. Jardlno , who Is well known to nil our business community , and I am Inclined to think that this small charity which has been among our very poorest people might bo made the foundation of n larger enterprise , such as I have attempted to describe , and in which I am deeply and fervently interested.

When Nebraska's advertising train loft Omaha recently for a brief tour through the middle aud eastern states the originators nf the Idea were conlldont that the wealth of agricultural products gathered from the various counties would attract considerable attention. Tbo most sanguine , however , were scarcely prepared for the brilliant triumph achieved. At every stop tbo cars were surrounded by eager crowds -anxious to obtain a glimpse of the marvelous ovl- doncos of Nebraska's title to the nation's garden spot. Tbo results were gratifying In every respect. As an indication of the man ner in which ' .ho Idea was received bv those fortunate enough to visit tbo display , the fol lowing extracts are selected from tbo many complimentary pr6ss notices received on tbo tour : Chicago Tribune , October IU : Two pas. songor coaches with gothla windows of corn rolled into the un Ion depot over the Burlington road last night. Hod , white nnd yellow ears so covered tbo sides of tbo cur that they bad the appearance of corn palaces on wheels. The car contained every variety of products grown in the state ot Nebraska. The products of each county were ar ranged by themselves , Douglas county , in which Omaha Is situated , occupied a con- splclQus place. James Walsh , ono of thu delegates representing the county aud known us tbo "Potato King" of Nebraska , pointed to tbo display of vegetables and declared that Douglas county was prepared to food tbo national republican convention at Omaha In Ib'J , ' . Among tbo curiosities wore an car of corn welching ono and three- quarters pounds , eighteen pound boots ana specimens of sugar beets and hornp. Tbli was from Dodge county , bialks of hemp olgnlccu foot high ivproi hung up In the cnr. It In predicted that JtybriMKix wilt some day develop Into tbo IcAdjjig ugir nnd hemp producing staM In the country. The Me- Kintoy bill U said to Jmvo assisted both those Industries materially , Jo Hint state. The slzo unit quality of n < l the products approach the marvelous. Chicago Herald , Octbbcr 19 : Agricultural products of a gro.tt und crowing state are shown In nn exhibit on wheels now traveling through the country. A train load of prize products was In Chicago yoitcrdny , tbo Nebraska State Business Men's association being In chiirgu. ' Mvory agricultural product ot tbo state 1 < t In the exhibit.

It was promptly rolled In on time , nnd a vast crowd of f armors und towns people of this vicinity availed themselves of thu privilege- seeing fieo one of the line-it exhibits of agricultural and orchard products over displayed to nn admiring and appre ciative people. The truth is that there never has been n bettor or superior exhibit of the products of earth than was presented these who availed themselves of the privilege of seeing Nebraska on wheels. It appears to bo God's Doming country. A squash that weighed 185. pounds , watermelons in proportion , e.iw ot corn that weighed ono pound tind ihreo-quaHiJM , sugar boots four feet long , with the tails bitten off by llttlo girls with "sweet teotii , " will go to satisfy tin ) eastern man what it U tlmt the oncrgoiic farmers mid business men of Nebraska ruiso ami handle commercially. * * The west to us will continue to develop nnd for ages to coma will bo the homes of happy and prosper ous millions of what l-i calunl humanity. Plymouth Hcpubllcati. Octohi'1-i.M : The great variety of grain exhibited was a proof of tlio wonderful resources of Nebraska. The display of vegetables was equal and In mary respects superior to anything of the kind we have over seen. The idea of n state of dioutb , hot winds and cyclones producing such u vegetable croo maUo the crowds of visitors open their ' 'yes in wonder. The fruit was also excellent , especially the apples It looked goud to tee lnr > ; u sound apulo-i of every imaginable variety. Tliosiglnof gran ulated sugar from sugar beets raised in Ne braska was the real wonder. It demonstrated two grand .facts thai Nebraska was the second end state in the union to prouuee sugar from thu sugar beet and that the McKinley bill was the father of n great Industry and a blessing to the fanner. The scheme was n grand success. Nebraska Is away up in the estimation ot our people , both as'to her won derful resources mfd'tb'b industry and iiitelli pence of her people. Como again and stay longer. Karlvlllo (111. ( ) Gazetp , October23 : Satur day afternoon nbotii4il : ; ! the Nebraska tinln roauhed this city The cars were coon crowded with puonlu examining the truly tine dlsnlay of the products of that state. The fruit exhibit , uspcciiilly of applet , caused much astonishment , for no ono would look for such a display except fiom sections noted lor fruit growing. The fruit was not the ptoduct of any speclnl section of the state , but was from all parts of It. The grains and vegetables showed thai-Nebraska is a state fertile in soil nud with other conaitions so favorable that the farmer must get a bounti ful return for his labor. Undoubtedly the display biiiinj made by the enterprising people plo who have it in charge will induce many people to locate in tbat'itnto. Wellsvillo ( O. ) Uniotr ; Oct. .11 : There was such another invasion of Nebraska Thursday evening by our pcoplg us Oklahoma oxpoii- enced when thrown open to settlors. Men , women and children droppoa everything- work and play tb got ovur the borders into Nebraska. II was an exhibition woitb see ing1 , calculated to ! c.osun the roots of out most lixed ngricultuiUts nnd craze them with doilro to go west ; calculated to conquer the aversion of our traded men and professionals to the calling of fanners aud almost to lead them to'ombrufO il and po to tilling the Ne braska soil. Ohio must .violet the palm to her rich-soiled western slstnr , Nebraska , for agricultural products after this. Mind falls to recall u cultivated prcduct of the soil of tliis-latitudo that was not shown in tint Ne braska exhibit in [ riant stature. The gontlo- men. , accompanying Ino truln sang their state's praises and distributed printed mat ter. Two hours were too short our people couldn't get to soo. Kast Liverpool ( Pa. ) Crisis , Oct. 3' ) : There was on exhibition yesterday at the foot of Broadway a peculiar display that at tracted much attention and served at ouco to illustrate the divcrsilicd natural products uud tbo business en terprise of one of tbo phenomcnallv prosper ous states of the great west. During the brief stop hero tno train was visited by many ot our citizens , and many others rc- groltod the early departjro that deprived them of the pleasure. The -display Is sur prisingly varied and co"mpleto , ineluaing every possible variety of fruit nnd vecctahlo product indigenous to the climate. In the grains the exhibit Is very line , but this feature - uro Is wholly surpassed by the apples and other fruits , whicti are ns iino as these raised in any part of the couiury , Ono feature of the display which attracted universal atten tion was the exhibit of the Nebraska beets. The scheme of calling the attention of the public in this novel manner to their agricultural and horticultural products can not but. prove valuable us an aid to the future nrosporlty of what Iho projectors enthusliis- ticully denominate"tho garden spot of the world. " Eust Liverpool ( O. ) Hoviow , October 80 : Any sort of an ugrsiultural fair on wheels Is a pretty big onturprsio , but Nebraska's agricultural fair on wheels beats the record Each of the nineteen countlos represented has nu exhibit which would muko u credita ble showing by Itsolf. The mammoth display of grains , vegetables And fruits were enough to drive nn Ohio farmer , who hadn't thu softest kind of n snap at homo , to Nebraska immediately after ho had deposited his vote next Tuesday. That is tbo only objection an Ohio paper could have to the enterprise. A ono of the gentleman stated to the reporter the object of the trip Is not at all speculative , It Is simply uu ndvoitUomont of the great state , its resources and capabilities , for the purpose of encouraging Immigration and establishing industries. Valparaiso , ( Ind. ) Sun , October 10 : Nebraska - braska on wheels rolled into thu Fort Way no depot this morning , The train is run under the auspices ot the Stale Business Men's as sociation , and Is designed to practically dem onstrate tbo resources of a state which is rich in the variety Qt tier products.

DISCUSSING HIGH LICENSE , How Iowa Oitfzans Fool on the Qnastloa of Prohibition. RECENT ELECTION DEVELOPMENTS. Situation In the I/i' lsluuu-n AVhllc Homo Ituiuihliu.inH Are DuiiUtl'nl Others Dpulnro the Ij.iw a Delusion , Dr.t MoiSE" , In. , Nov. 15. [ Special to Tut : Bti : : | The republic ins of Iowa nro Inn quandary on the prohibition question. The re HI Hi of the election nro more perplexing the moro they nro studied. Assuming that Governor Holes and the ilnmnor.illo p.irty stood for the .saloon umlor a ? > JJ llconao , us sot out In their platfurm , It would ooni that a majority of the people had spolcen In favor of trying that plan. Assuming , also , that Mr. Wheeler stood for the present prolnb- Itory law as voiced by the republican plat form , nnd Ills found that outside of the heavy democratic counties of Scott and Dubiiquo ho received a tmijotitv of the votes of the stato. It is aho found that ho hud a plurality In sixty counting of the state , while ( Jovornor Dnlr-i otilv ravtiod . thirty-nine. Ulnnclng nt thi ) lugislaturo. and It Is found that the re publicans have u majority In the homo of -six. and have an equal number of members of the senate with the democrats. This foot would seem to Imllu.Uo that the tnajorltr of the people had not 1:0110 back on prohibition , oho thov would Imvo elected nlojlslature pledged to license. Hut Just how to decide what the election really did ' 'mean , mid Just what is best to do about It Is the grave problem which confronts the republican p.irty. The question Is being discussed consider ably by editors nnd correspondents. The prohibitionists , of course , advocate sticking to tlielawaiid standing or falling thereby , Insisting that it Is hotter to die for the right than to surrender to the saloon , and that sort of sentiment. The r.nti-prohlbllionlsls see In the result a splendid opportunity to cry , ' 'I told you so. " nnd to advise the repeal of prohibition and the enactment of high license light away. Those , of course , are by the radicals on both sides. The conservative clement is .calm , nnd advise the puoplo to go slow and wait. Thov think it , will bo bettor for the partv to keep perfectly still until the democrats expose their plans. They say since the republican party espoused prohibition nnd have received the curses of democracy and mem bers of their own party therefor , it is hardly peed sense to Jump from the frying pan into the lire and wreck the party on the high II- fcnso rock. They believe If any ono should bo lospotisiblo for high license at this tlmo It should bo the democrats who have chum- plonuu it the past ten yearj. They realize , too , that the great majority of the toptib- lican party in lor.-u ar& prohibitionists , nnd If that principle is abandoned it will moan croat loss and the probable formation of a formidable third party. Looking at it from ovorv Point of view It Is going to tairu some wlao statesmanship to guide the party ship safely through the shoals of the logtslatura thi ° winter. Ono of the most Important oflises to the republicans In this emergency will be the spealiorshin of the house , and it Is necessary to goo the very best man to fill the Irving oosllion. Natur ally men who have had previous legislative oxperio'ico will bo looked upon as the most available timber. But a glance at the list shows that very fov republican members of the last house have been returned. Among these who have success- luliv weathered the gain .lire unaso ot Hamilton county , Dolph of Hnrdin , Holllday of Louisp , Morrow of Union , Lane of Polk , Gardner of Washington , Austin of Wiight nnd Van Gilder of Warren. Wyckolt of Ap- panooso has also had legislative experience , though not in the last houso. A new man , however , is the lirst to enter his name us a candidate for speaker--W. O. Mitchell of Adams. Lane of Polk was speaker pro torn during the thirty days deadlock of "tho last bouse" nnd If a candidate would stand a good show for election , having ncquluod himself with abilitvand rnado many friends. It is hardly probublo that there will bo much political legislation accomplished this winter , and it is pxtromoly douo'tful if any rcdistricling will oo aono. With n demo cratlo majority In the senate mid a republi can majority in the house , but little can bo done beyond the passage of the aporopriatimi hihs oxctpt bv the way of eompromls'o. Of course the republicans will have their own way in all Joint convention proceedings , ex cept where two-thirds vote Is lequiicd. The Keokuk Constitution-Democrat states that it has sent a series of questions out to the members of the next general assembly on the liquor question. Eleven replies nro thus far received from republican ropicspntatives. Six of them are unqualifiedly for prohibition ; ono for resubmlbsion ; ono will abide by pro hibition unless ho can got released by his constituents ; ono of the opinion that with the .state at largo opposed to prohibition something may bo done to changoit ; ono thinks $1OUO is high llcenso and would favor that if it would suit his constituency , and ono states that matters have changed very much and is at present undecided. Seven replies are re ceived from republican senators. Four nro for straight prohibition ; ono Is undecided ; ono against democratic local option and high llcenso but would favor republican local op tion and high license with the amount from SI,100 to ? : iOUO : and ono considers license the nest form for reducing the evils resulting from tlio sale of liquor , and prohibition a de lusion and a snare.
