It is the Centre of authority the place of Legisla of and Talent Here that daily and weekly the press Speaks doing More to Mould the Rural popu lation than we Are Apt to imagine. The moral condition of a City therefore is unspeakable importance. Just As a de Mountain pollutes All the streams which flow from it so a City in which an unhealthy tone of morals exists is a Bane to Tho whole country. There Are Many things for who of this Young place deserves High commendation. Its police remarkable efficient and has succeeded in suppressing the Advance of Ruffia ism. Whenever e peace has disturbed the offenders have been brought to Swift Justice and live been made a warning to others. The press stands High is ably managed and invariably Suo ports morality and Good government a the matter of its schools and churches too Winnipeg deserves great Praise. The Edu cation of the mind and of the h cart is a subject of Paramount importance in Tho Esti mation of the Community. All the Machin Ery necessary to obtain satisfactory results Here has been procured and is cheerfully maintained. 80 far Well. But i have one thing against Winnipeg it does no pay sum client attention to the subject of Tern Perance and i think that if the apostle John was now upon Earth he would Are to if that venerable servant of were now Here in the flesh and he were to write an epistle to this cite As of old he did to the seven churches of by have this against that Tupu Hast too Many you Asree with me that Toa reasoning mind appreciate the consequence of m.

Not Only 3 soul. A few Days was led6to Hoti e hat a fresh application for a Saloon 1 would be refused and for that i grateful. It was i thought a step i ight direction the Index of another p a but it was too Good to be True j doomed to disappointment. The License As since been granted. And of wlm forcible arguments what potent logic Arn deduced to justify such a course Fife s the reasoning saloons we a great Dea of mischief we Don t approve of them at All but this License is Only for six week and therefore give let Loose the Demon or army authorize the Public Sale of Poison affix your Seal to misery crime and discs to manhood and self respect in Stead of being a clog retarding the wage 1, of society they would contribute to the general Good. They would cease to Bon evil example to Tho rising generation f do Aioli flied. I cannot see one single re i to justify their existence. They Are no recommendation to any place. You Neve hear anyone say of that s a very Fino City it has plenty of saloons i a s is Nob Likely to Send his son to a Ceita col Ege because there Are scores of i sons the neighbourhood. A Man gains not hindi reputation by Contact with them. Vav o the contrary no respectable Man to be seen in Ono of them by those whose opinion in values. Sometimes when i have a occasion to go into saloons 1 have seen con fued faces and a running hither and thither nto nooks and Corners. Why was All this 1 if7 blushing to hed itself m such a false position. It was a taint tribute to the cause of posters of whiskey. Many among you Are not total abstainers you think you drink a moderation and perhaps you can at any rate i am not going to ask you of sign the pledge to night although ave said before from this place there is Man who never touches alcohol As a Bever age who is entirely Safe from its deadly sting. I am not going to ask you to sign the support with Xeal and for the suppression of saloons. We have the Assurance from Tho head of the Mont Tom if it could to shown that the Onty of the citizens were opposed to saloons Steps would be at once taken for their extirpation. This is a matter which touched every respectable member of the commune whether he be a total abstained or not it we realize our responsibilities As the Pio neers in this now country we should Sci Oiin in lop Oil from its social life an evil which i allowed to continue and increase will prove a blight and a Carso to yet unborn. If we too indifferent and Alithe in to move in this matter when the Smor Tummy me shall to not bring in Oil ourselves the malediction of the text woe unto him that Iveth his neighbor drink tint put test thy bottle to him and makes i m Drunken say not in your heats t h movement does not concern me it in be very Good but 1 do not care u be mixed up with reflect a moment do you think or can thus shake Oil our Job apathy and in differ Christian , to ask dec ouija 11 q till if Christ had reasoned in the same to not seek us out did to not die for our salvation when to had no desire to be saved does he not now everyday let is celebrated. In 2 Sam. Al amen the of the lord is restored to Israel. But what god 2ff. Ii the the dancing of modern times Ito Ligou i m common with other nations had their sacred dances which were performed on their solemn an Avci Saries and other occasions of Coincom Ziatin Somo special Token of the divine pleasure dance can derive no Comtoi a from this custom. It furnishes no Model m ail expression of personal or Public Joy. If fair Fps. Bent god Tho lost son the gentiles in general and every sinner in particular Tho Joy 01 mends the Joy in heaven Over one sinner that Repen Teth. To do not presume Christ would use the dance of to Day with All its surroundings to represent this Jit when a sinner to Day is converted he docs not seek he Ball room to give his sex area to god of his j0y. Cd Pierre los Jsam. Outh Chap., and Matt. 14th Chap., Illel go v for i the defender of modern dancing can de Little Comfort irom Tho study of these is models. 3. If Doc. Our modern styles of dancing were unknown when Tho scrip tire records were made. The dances men one in the scriptures were performed by he sexes separately in the Day time in the open air in an Ordinary dress and a com mined with a grand Anthem of Praise. In the modern pleasure dance to have about he opposite. The dancing of to Day can therefore receive no countenance from the dancing mentioned in scripture. The Only two instances in which there May have been dancing is at the consecration of the deified in exodus tend Chap and the dancing of the children of godless families mentioned in Job 21st Chap a we examine the dance amongst the greeks Komans and other nations we will find its character to to such that r person would plead it As Ai we leu ii.
