pious young Baptist minister, eighteen
years of age, and is well deeervine ol tl e

ji is tuny apparent mat it Uie Spanish

their independence by just such a war, '
brines us back to the patience, patriot

glorious by the triumph of Aia-.'.ricin
independence, after having tasted the
a wets of liberty, now in her greatest
pomp und glory as a nation render aid
to the little island, almost within onr
boundaries ; made wretched by Spanish
oppression . Can she not. th J greatest
nation on the iace of God's green earth,
listen to the pitiful cries of pocr Cuba
and lift her from her bed of coals. Can
we not with our miehty power succor
the bleeding island which lies at our

and begging for mercy. Must the U. S.
forget the lime when lone France took
pity on us and sent her battalions aerobe

Why do the officials heed the pleas of
the brutal Spanish, instead of the voice

It is the plain and simple but painful
truth "Patriotism Our Present .Need."

A NATIONAL SPEAKER.
A good silted audience at the opera
house last night listened to Mrs. C. C.
Hoffman, of the national officers of the
W. C. T. U. They were delighted with
her motherly style, her pleasing manner
and eloquent words. The following will
show a synopsis of her remarks :
The pessimist is a croaker who only
ercaks, and he says there is no change
in the matter of temperance; but Mrs.
Hoffman showed bow a marked im
provement had been made, 1st, along
social lines, second, along industrial
lines and third along religious lines.
Socially she told of the time when
even tbe pastor was invited, and did
drink. In Washington there has been a
great change. A great compliment was;
paid trances Cleveland, who bad been
true to her temperance principles. In
cidents mere eiven showing bow the in
fluence was vfry ex'ensive. Christian
men who have no backbone in politics
were touched up with a sharp point.
She hoped the coming inaugural would
be an improvement over the past be
sotted affairs.
In the industrial line it was shown
how in early davs liquor was used in all
farmins operations ecnerally. where now
it is almost unknown. Railroads form
erly had no restrictions in reference to
tbe use of intoxicants by employes; but
nowjt ts prohibited on most of the lead'
ing railroads. In commercial travelers
she bad noticed a big change for the
better.
Religiously at one time christians sold
whir key, it was sold in nearly ail gro
cery stores ; now none sell it Now a
get majority of christians use unfer
mented wine for celebrating (he Lords
supper, whsre formerly it was all fer
mented.
She told of what the W. C. T. U. had
done.
if yon want to teach a dog new tricta
you must begin when he is a puppy, so
you mast begin with people when they
are young, in the public schools. Tbe
government requires the teaching of tbe
evil effects of alcoholic liquors in all tbe
territories and government schools. All
secured by the W. O. T. U. Every state
in the union but three requires scientific
instruction on tbe evil eltects of liquor
on the system. In no cadet or military
school is tobacco allowed, and another
law was passed prohibiting the ue of
tobacco bv tue instructor during schoo!
boars. The speaker paid her compli
ments to tobacco, for which 1S50.000.000
is spent annually. Talk of personal
liberty, in Chicago they wont let men
spit on tbe flxr and women can't wear
big hats at public entertainments.
22 states the age of consent was as
low as ten rears. The W . C. T. U.
through its efforts raised this in every
state but two.
The sneaker wants the voice of both
sexes in legislation, not either alone.
God give ns men instead of mites, she
sAd, speaking of the manner in which
ignorant men kept asking what the w .
O. T U. has done, because they have
not abolished all the saloons.
The churches have resorted to all sorts
of disreputable things, fairs, etceiera, for
tbe Lords wurk, and that is the resson
there is not more spirituality in the
churches.
, The worlds first nations! convention 1
was eloquently described. There were
378 delegates from 22 coun!ierr,H3 being
from the U. 8 . a wonderful gathering.
All demanded absolute equality.
Her account of the meetings and the
surrounding was a very entertaining
one. Incidents being narrated that could
only be appreciated by the hearing, tnld
in a manner that has made Mrs. Hoff
man one of the most popular speakers
on tbe pla'form.
One could appreciate bow wide, the
work was from the remarks made.
It was an interesting fact that the
speaker had not attacked the saloon at
all, she said, because It was as good as
the license that permitted it, as the men
who voted for it and the legislature at
the back of it

A Good Provtsiox. The Dsmoout
yesterday referred to some insurance
agents soliciting insurance in Salem for
a CO year tontine policy payable in It
annual payments, doing so alter toting a
letter from a prominent Salem man at
tacking tbe policy. Without under
standing the matter it looks unreason
able; but an examination of the contract
and policy abows it to be ll right. Mr.
L. E. Neergaard, superintendent of the
northwest division of the Manhattan
Life Insurance Company, and -J. B.
Merer, special agent, are in the city and
it transpires are soliciting for a SO year
tontine policv tbit has a 12 year condi
tion. Instead of being a bail an ex
planation plainly shows it to be a great
adrantage and excellent provision. It
is simply that if the policy ia kept np 12
years it shall not lapse. If no more pay
ments are mane, at tbe end ol tne 20
years ihe assured will receive the value
of the policy less the amount of tbe un
paid e ght premium and Interest on
tbem. it is simply an option, and the
assured may accept this provision or
nav the premiums. The value of tbe
pfcicy is based on thia option, in case of
those who find it impossible to keep np
the policy after 12 years, or do not de
sire to. The Pkmockat is nothing it not
trtir, and always desires to give botli
sides of all matters.
