Among the prominent speakers were Archbishop Ryan and J. Washington Loague, of Philadel Philadelphia, phia, Philadelphia, and President Glory. It was recommended that the lecturing system be extended as much as possible; that temper temper-.ance .ance temper-.ance literature be disseminated in 2very place, and that total absti abstinence nence abstinence societies be started every parish. To show the trend of the' speeches, we quote from one speaker as follows: "It is not the sin of drunkenness -alone that our grand organization is prepared to combat. Our far far-ireaching ireaching far-ireaching purpose is to aid in cor correcting recting correcting the foolish drinking cus cus-toms toms cus-toms of society, to make the prac practice tice practice of total abstinece popular, and to brand with odium the indefen indefensible sible indefensible and dangerous social customs hat are a stumbling block to the veak and a temptation to all. There can be no affiliation be between tween between the church and the saloon. The church will not and cannot permit that the drinking den shall flourish beneath the shadow of the -consecrated house of prayer."; The following resolutions were .adopted among others: "Resolved, That we urge every everywhere, where, everywhere, by votes and influence, the enactment of such laws as the 'screen law,' the 'single entrance' Jaw, and all v laws which may in - any way help towards the strict enforcement of the present excise Jaws. "Resolved, That we co-operate with our non-Catholic fellow-citizens in every legitimate effort to restrict the evils of intemperance. "Resolved, That we urge the formation of total abstinence soci soci-aties aties soci-aties among women, girls and .boys, and we urge men's societies to give them every encouragement in their power. .
