Southern Evangelist Holds Audi ence for Two Hours. A large number of La Grande people last evening .heard Sam Small the Southern evangelist and national pro hibition worker speak for two hours tin that subject. ''Eloquently he painted word pictures' of tho fight leading up to tho passage of the Ken yon bill prohibiting shipment of liquor into dry territory, and he pre dicted that "by 1920 the people of America willv.have passed a national amendment prohibiting the manufac ture, for sale, of liquor in this coun try. ,.'' "There is but one way to effectually attain our goal" said the speaker "and that is by national prohibition. State's rights do not enter In, but to obtain the national amendment it is expedient to have more states dry that is the order at present" Sam Small is a typical Southerner, falls into the Southern dialect, uses homely illustrations that leave no doubt of their meaning however, and when incidents prompt, can show his temper. A little girl coughed in the gallery and the speaker stopped abruptly, exclaiming: "Somebody take care of that kid up there it is an noying the audience." The embar rassed mother who had hoped to hear the much-famed speaker, hastily withdrew from the house in confusion. It took some time for the speaker to get back into the good graces of the audience again. . ' Tho two-hour speech was given a rhetorically brilliant rounding up by an appeal for votes for the national prohibition amendment when the time l THE, -Ladies Show-room- 1212 Adams Ave. Next to Hill's Drug Store op Stairs' .Phone Black 3261 LADIES' TAILORING- AND DRESS MAKING.
