Motto: For God nnd Homo and Na
tive Land.
"Onward loyal workers!
Thoro la work to do.
Homo and state and nation
Cry aloud to you:
All too long tho rum-fiend.
On our soil doth reign;
From our fair escutcheon
Wlpo this ono dark Btaln.
Onward valiant soldiers!
Labor prayerfully;
Tlmo Is swiftly fleeing.
Mnka our dear State free!"
"On the third November morning
when election dnv comes
round,
And tho glory In the conflict wo
shall share;
W'hon tho votcrB all aro gatherd
from tho country and the
town,
And the dry amendments voted,
wo'll ho there."
Dry meaBuro Is tho mensuro used
to ascertain tho caliber of the labor
seckor'B efficiency nt tho present
time.
"Tho liquor Interests wage their
contests on the lowest level nnd arc
most powerful because- of tholr abil
ity to debauch thoso whom they con
trol. No man Is In a position to dls
uhnrgo his duties ob ho ought to, who
takes qrdors from them, and they
can generally control thoso to whom
they kIvo office. Tho saloon Is a
milsnnco; oven its defenders cannot
Hay more In Its behalf tnan that It
Is a necessary nuisance. It ought to
bo dealt with as a nulsanco nnd not
as a thing to bo respected or feared.

It Is right and proper for "Chris

hlagea In sabbath worship and In
their social gatherings for prayer and
praise; hold sweet converse nud feel
tho Spirit's power; but theso aro only

festival on tho "mountain top," In
real sorvlco for tho Master, our gar
monta should sraoll of the smpko and
dust of tho battlefield In tho slums
and hy-waya of poverty, contagion
nnd crime; or with Satan's finer
equipped forces massed on tho
holghta of prldo nnd fashion; nnd
with that Moloch, tho Rum Demon.
Scars gained in such conflicts are
sure to win promotion to tho rnnkB of
the heavenly hosts, and an everlast
