RUNNJR PROS.
Rev. Granville Jones Spoke for
Their Side Last Night.
ANTIS' MEETING TONIGHT
Prominent Speakers Engaged and
the Issues Would Seem to Be
Well Joined'in that Locality.
According to the announcement mad In
yesterday's Post Rev Granville Jones
noted as a revivalist and prohibition lec-
turer appeared before a Brunner audi-
ence last night to discuss the Issue con-
fronting the people with regard to the
liquor truffle and advance the argu-
ments set forth in favor of the prohibi-
tion ause. He was greeted by Urgo
audience on bis appearance on the plat-
form and for an hour and a half was
listened to with marked attention and
Interest His discourse ' abounded In
ttrong forceful vigorous argument and
was replete with witticisms and original
Illustrations
His remarks were Interrupted several
times by enthusiastic applause and at
the close of the discourse an inf . rr a' re-
ception was held at which numbers ct
the hearers mad the acquaintance ot Mr.
Jones.
Mr. Jones stated lr. bis introductory
that his Intention was to axpoae som c
tho inconsistencies and weaknesses of
the opposition and show where their
propositions proved unfounded.
He took up the question oft-repeated
that pruntbllloii U.iesn t prohibit "if it
uoesn t p.-ohiblt why '" asaed the speak-
er. "Aren't yj-u officers able to eniorce
the luw? Aren't your lawK adequato to
the cases? The statement that pnjMbl
Hon doesn't pronlblt. It suoms to me la
n confession of ttnitrchy. They contend
that If we do not license them and thus
be able In a way to control their selling
they will sell lt anyway ami thus the
condition will be worse than before
"When it cotnes to 4 state of affairs
like this I think th tline has come to
light. Not m-uial beastly fighting; but
irre struggle for civic liberty the strug-
gle .gHli.st lawlessness. It they contend
that they will H their stuff anyway
then I say they assert themselves above
the law;' and when men get too big for
tlio law they ret too big for the country
ami ought to be put in Jail until they
shrink a little." -
HE GIVESFIGURES.
Mr. Joins thj.n produced some figures
as evidence that 'prohibition .has de-
creased crime In those localities where
lt hns been tried these figures being
compiled as he explained from actual
and official records kept In the courts
of the various counties. Before reading
the report huwover lie announced his
challenge to anyone disposed to lefute
their authenticity "barring no man frci
a congressman to a driver of a beer
wagon" and declared his willingness to
discuss the matter at any time. Follow-
ing are the figures read they being be
said the actual lumber of crimes com-
mitted while whisky was licensed as com-
pared with those crmmltted under pro-
hibition for equal lengths of time:
Under Under pro-
license ilbltion.

HE DRAWBDEDLCT10NS.
Other figures of the same character
were produced showing the nnnjtr of
cases of drunkenness under the open sa-
loon as compared with the same under
prohibition for aa equal leagtli ot time.
Deducing from these comparisons the
speaker made the assertion that the sa-
loon was responsible (or two-thirds of the
crime committed: "Now lt is up to you
t-eople of Bruunor to by your vote on the
Ith of October either support crime or
strike a blow at the great institution that
la responsible for more than one-half
of tie crime of this country."
Mr. Jonss brought the race problem
into his discussion asserting in fact that
back of the race problem was the liquor
problem. He pictured the condition ex-
isting before and during the civil war
when the saloon was sn unknown Insti-
tution in our Southland and compared
that with the picture of today. 'It la
by his association with the characters
mat with in the saloon by listening to
their vile and slanderous conversation by
hearing repeatedly and unremittingly lewd
remarks and anrighteous comments on
the name and character of women that
the poor Ignorant negro gets his Inspira-
tion and his first incentive to commit
those namele.it crimes which have ap-
pauea ui enure ooum.
WHERE CONTEST LIES.
But after all the speaker said the con-
test narrows down to one between the
home and the liquor traffic. The saloon
must have men to work on; to have men
we must have boys and for the boys w
come back to the home. He mad a
strong appeal to tire -mothers and sister!
to continue their fight against the saloon.
It is not meddling In politics he con-
tended. The saloon has Invaded th
home and lt Is the" duty and God-given
privilege of the mother to defend that
home.
At the close of the address there were
many who came forward with assurances
that they would go for prohibition in the
Brunner election to be held on the Sth
of next month. Rev. Jones will leave
the prohibition work for a while going
from here today to Carlsbad N. M.
where he will begin shortly a series of
revivals. He has been working very ag-
gressively in Texas for the prohibition
cause in the last few months and is now
content to let up for a while. .
THE ANTI8"T0NIGHT.
Tonight another rally will be held at
Brunner in contemplation of the ap-
proaching local option election. This will
be by the antis. Ths meeting will as-
semble near the postofflce arrangements
having been made to comfortably provide

cially Invited to attend and they are as-
sured of ample accommodations. Ad-
dresses will be delivered by Hon. H. A.
Edwards of Limestone county Captain

UCHIDA IS IN THE CITY
Distinguished Japanese Official
Returns from Visit to Aldine.
Jap Baby Named "Texas."
8. Uchida Japanese consul general
at New York city and E. C. Robinson of
the immigration department of the South-
ern Pacific railway returned from Aldine
last night where Mr. Uchida has been to
Inspect the colonists from his country.
While In Aldine a Japanese farmer
named Hashlna and his wife drove In
from their farm five miles from town
to meet the Japanese official and they
brought with them their baby born only
a few days ago and which Is said to be
the first Japanese boy baby ever born In
this State.
There was a girl baby born of Japanese
parents at Dallas a few months ago and
was named after President Roosevelt's
wife but Mr. and Mrs. Hashlna have
chosen a more patriotic name for their
first born whom they have named
Texas.
Uchida and Robinson were both per-
mitted to hold the young Jap and they
pronounced lt the largest snd brightest
child for Its age they ever saw.
Mr. Robinson states that the Japanese
consul was as proud of the child as Its
own parents and predicted that In the
future it may become an American sol-
dier or sailor and give as good an ac-
count of himself ss his countrymen have
been doing in the Orient

HOT AFTER SINNERS
REV. MR. GREEN'S MEET-
ING DRAWS BIG CROWDS.
Necessity for Both a Hell and a
Heaven Pointed Out and
Choice Left to Hearers.
The second night of the Methodist re-
vival In progress at the corner ofMan
street and Bell avenue thowed a marked
Increase In both Interest and attendance.
The tent had been provided with a
greater number of seats and lt can now
accommodate a large congregation.
A number of ministers of the city were
In attendance both from the Methoditt
and other denominations. The song serv-
ice led by Rev. 8. R. Hay wa stirring
and calculated to put the congregation
In a good frame of mind to receive th
words of the preacher.
Rev. Mr. Green in his opening remarks
stated that on the night previous he had
called attention to the devil In his rela-
tion to the Individual man In his great
battle with Job the servant of God and
that he next wanted to consider him In
relation to God's government He there-
upon announced a double text as fol-
lows: L "The wicked shall be turned
Into hell and all naUons that forget
God." Psalms lx 17. 2. "Come ye blessed
ot my father Inherit the kingdom pre-
pared for you." Matthew xxv 44.
Mr. Green departed . from the usual
manner of treating the texts devoting
the greater portion of his time to show-
ing the necessity for a hell and a heaven
both as regards this present world and
the great eternity and the relation ot the
devil to hell or as he put It the why
and what of hell. He showed how bell
and heaven were Interdependent the one
on the other; how absolutely impossible
It would be to have a heaven without
a hell. He showed by the Bible that
hell was not originally prepared for man
but for the devil skid his followers who
rebelled against the government of the
Almighty God without temptation or
cause thus originating sin and sowing
the first seeds of anarchy. He stated
that although hell was a subject that
grated upon the finer sensibilities of some
people. It was one that ought to be
more discussed and was often the means
of arousing a man from the lethargy
of sin kindling In him the desire to
flee the wrath to come and pattern his
life after the Man of Galilee In order
that he might escape the doom of th
wicked and enter Into heaven. Granting
he said that there was a great reason
why a man should serve God hell or
no hell he contended neverthelesa that
It In -most cases took the combined ef-
fect of both these Influences to keep
a man thoroughly awake to the necessity
of being up and doing while it Is yet
day. "There is no reason" said Mr.
Green "why every good law-abiding
cltlten should not be a Christian."
There was no attempt on the part of
the minister to describe the beauties of
heaven or the woes and miseries of hell;
his conception of the first being an
eternal abode in the presence of the great
Ktng. where all the righteous where
the will of all would be thoroughly In
accord wtth the will of the Creator and
the eternal principals of right while
hell was pictured as a region beyond
the boundary of the great kingdom
where would be gathered all the wicked
and those that forget God. Whether
or not there would be fire and brim-
stone In the literal sense he would not
attempt to say but to his mind he said
the idea of being eternally cut off was
terrible beyond power of expression sim-
ply rut off with no hope to go en and
on In the endless ages of eternity be-
yond the pale of mercy. By way of Il-
lustration the preacher said that If all
the churches all the Christian people
sll the Christian Influences all law and
order were removed from Houston and
only the bad left it would be a veritable
hell and such a place be believed would
be hot enough without the fire and brim-
stone. In this connection occasion waa
taken to make a few Incidental remark
concerning the failure to enforce the law
In this city and the prediction was made
that if the present state of affairs ws
allowed to continue much longer the
people ot Houston' would be compelled
to rise up and take control.
In coi elusion. an earnest appeal waa
made to all who desired to lead a better
life snd who for this purpose wished the
prayers ot the Christian people to come
forward and give their- hands. Quite a
number responded.- "--' -
At the close of the aervtee. Rev. Ellts
Smith announced that today there would
be two services one commencing at 1 10
a. m and Intended more especially for
church members and serious-minded per
sons th other commencing at 7:10 .
m. with song and prayer preaching to
begin at I o'clock sharp. .
- It was aW atiBowiiued -Uial It wa
hoped by tonight th tent would bo
quipped with lectrlo lights.
