We have not only todeal with the
saloon, but we are dealing with the
saloon in order to reach the drink evil.
When we shall have eliminated the
saloon from the situation, we must
address ourselves to the more diffi
cult task of enforcing the law and
alleviating the condition of drunk
ards and drinkers. This task calls for
all the courage and wisdom and pa
tience that is in men.
I have literature on hand, model
constitutions, a tract describing the
Anti-Saloon League, copies of the
Prohibition Year Book, and lists of
Temperance tracts which I send out
wherever desired. I am flnding it
difficult to get an accurate list of the
towns in North Carolina in which
liquor is sold by license. I will
thank the reader of this article if he
will inform me by postal card,
whether the town in which he lives
has saloons or not. If every one pre
sumes that every one else will attend
to this request, I shall receive no
answers. On the other hand, if every
one presumes that no one else will
answer this request, I shall be happy
in the possession not onB' of my in
formation, but of a list of temper
ance men and women, whom I may
count upon to take pains for the
work.
We must proceed to the organiza
tion of Anti-Saloon Leagues imme
diately. If we shall have a great con
vention this summer, we must begin
to work now. It is not one moment
too soon to begin our work of gett iiig
up petitions tor elections under the
Watts Act. and of formally organiz
ing our forces. The elections should
take place in September or October.
I wish here to invite the public
men of North Carolina to come to
the aid of this cause. We have held
back out of politics, in order that
men might come into this work
against onr common enemy without
breaking party ties. There are in
politics in North Carolina many able
nien who have stood consistently on
the side of temperance and against
the saloon- These men can now per
form a great service to their party
and their State and all humanity by
giving us their aid. I hope that the
ministers in every town in North
Carolina in which liquor is sold,
either lawfully or unlawfully, will
meet withiu the next ter days and
lay the foundation for formal organ
ization. In every case I entreat them
to report to me.
J. W. BAILEY, Manager.

-‘There never was a time,” said
a speaker recently, “when men were
more willing to help and work for
other men, and showed a deeper, a
greater consideration for them than
at the present time. If these things
are not religion, what is?” These are
the results of centuries of Christian
indoctrination. They are not the
vine, but the grapes which we gather
from the vine. The gospel is rooted
in doctrine, and if we are satisfied to
gather the fruit, which is just now
hanging in rich clusters, and neglect
the vine, we shall soon have barreu-
ness and blight.—Religions Herald
