The following are tracts from the address of Mrs. L. M. N. Stevens presi­ dent, of the national W. C. T. U.. and delivered at Seattle, Wash.-. Oct. 20, 1899: (Continued from last week. ) Since 1)374 great progress has been made in woman's suffrage. School suf­ frage has been granted during that time in eighteen States: Louisiana has given women the right to vote on all questions submitted to the tax payers, and full suffrage has been granted in Colorado. Utah and Idaho. There is not a State where petitions have not been presented from the white-ribboners to the legis­ lature in behalf of ' 'better manners, purer laws." There are comparatively few pulpits in our land where the voice of woman has not been heard in ad­ vocacy of our fundamental principles or of some of the many departments which are the direct outgrowth of the endeav­ or to build up the great truths enij bodied in these principles; and more than all, societies of women organized on the plan of the convention twenty- live years ago now exist in well nigh fifty nations, and preparations are being made for the fifth biennial convention of the World s W. C. T, U., which meets in Edinburgh next June. Judgment in regard to Xvoman'a work and worth is all the'time growing kinder and humanity is moving forward and upward more rapidly each day toward those heights on which are enthroned justice, righteousness, temperance, pu­ rity and truth. . N Last year at St. Paul we observed the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Crusade. A precious hour it was when the plat­ form was filled with those blessed women, stalwart and invincible women who dared and who had done great things for God and for the temperance cause in those wonderful crusade days: meaningful is the fact that in that hour an impulse was 'given to our plan'for life membership by one who was not an original Crusader, but who possesses all >f its holy enthusiasm. This memorial membership plan has already brought us nearly one hundred life members, and a corre.sjHmding amount of financial aid in carrying out the work of the year - helping to shed abroad the light of the Crusade gospel into many places hereto­ fore unreached. ^Agitate, Educate, Organize, are our watchwords during the past year. The department of organization has received much attention, with results which we hope will prove that these efforts have been wisely directed. Each time we read the bill passed by Congress banishing tlio drink canteen from the army we are renewedly amazed that anyone, whatever his personal opin­ ion might be regarding the use of strong drink, could pi;ice such construction up­ on its words as that of Attorney General Griggs, supported by ex-Secretary Al- ger. Fortunately for our cause, the temper­ ance societies and leading temperance people are not alone in condemning such anarchical nullification of law as that- portrayed in the reversal of this order. Senator Frye, president of the United States Senate.writes: "1 do not believe hat the language^f the bill is suscep­ tible of tho limitation which the attor­ ney general nuts upon it. and I feel that L know that the Senate had no Buch in­ vention. " f Many sittkilar expressions have been given by other leading congressmen. Hie religioi^ papers, to a great extent the secular press, the clergy and the re­ ligious conferences, all join in condem­ nation of the action. We cannot wonder at the statement made by a friendly paper in England: "It is humiliating to rind the American people so densely ignorant. Senators, congressmen, law­ yers, preachers, editors, college profess­ ors and the masses had read the act, and in their blindness supjK)sed that it meant what it said, when, to their exceeding surprise and utter humiliation, they are informed by the attorney-general that itdoesn.t mean what it says at all." We have appealed to the President of the United States as Commander-in Chief of the Army; if we look in vain to him, justice may come from the Su­ preme Court of the United States. Let us by petition, and in all other reasonable ways, seek to bring about the rejection or expulsion Of Brigham H. Roberts from the fifty-sixth congress. This is plainly legitimate work for us, coming directly under the head of pu­ rity, one of our fundamental principles. The people of the United States, through congress, have declared their hostility to polygamy. The framer of this law, ex-Senator Edmunds, says: "If man is a polygamist he may be lawfully and rightfully expelled from the United States congress. Not alone would his retention be a great national strain upon American morality, but it would have a degrading influence upon the people of Utah. " One of the Utah papers says: "Our judgment is that if Mr. Roberts is seated in congress it will be accepted in Utah as a notice that polygamy ha* no special horror to the law-makers of the United States, and that it will be fol­ lowed by practically full restoration of conditions as they existed here. In taking action at this crucial time we are co-operating with church, mis­ sionary and reform societies, who feel with lis that to have an avowed polyga­ mist lit as a law-maker at Washington would be "an insult to the virtue of of womanhood and to the manhood of the nation." We cannot too deeply regret the re­ peal of prohibition in Alaska. It would have been infinitely better to try to bring the sentiment of the neonle up to and Suits.

Shame that our nation should give to its wards in. this imjjor- tant and interesting part of our country, only such protection from the great enemy as a license law affords. But, after all. when we consider how deeply intrenched in avarice as well as appetite the liquor traffic is we sometimes marvel that so many sections of our country are under prohibition. But more and more are the consciences of the people being awakened and quickened to understand that to license what is wrong can never make it right. Fair and care ful students of the subject are coming to agree that the prohibitive feature^ of a license law are not so well or so easily enforced as are the provisions of a clear cut prohibitory law. Most of the license laws forbid liquor selling on Sunday as well as to minors and" to drunkards. Well informed women who are obliged to live in licensed States under laws in which they have had no hand in making, known that these restrictions are but poorly enforced, if enforced at all. Even if they were enforced what matters it to the anxious mother whether her son is furnished an illegal drink the day be­ fore he is twenty-one or a legal drink the day after? What matters it to the poor wife whether her husband is fur­ nished legal drinks to carry him down to the drunkard point or furnished ill­ egal drinks after he has reached that place . .. ^ If you are buying goods come in and save 25 cents on the dollar A NEW BILL OF GOODS Men's heavy winter pants •..$1.90 Fine hair lined pants Fine Clay Cashmere Suits ...
