Prominent Workers In the Movement, Iim.
Sherwood and stsnsgh, 1111111 Ford;
and Bell, Give Ringing 11111111111,—
lnspirhig Music by the Chorus Choir.
Judging from the vast congregation
assembled in Hoyt's Theatre yesterday
afternoon it is quite evident the people
of South Norwalk are taking 1.011. than
ordinary interest in the, no-licensc cam-
paign which has opencdso auspiciously.
The seating capacity of the theatre was
' taxed to its utmost, being filled to the
very roof, and the lobby was thronged
with those unable to find seats, fully
«11,000 people being present. (In the stage,
were seated the speakers of the after-
noon, the cborus choir, the clergy repre-
senting Not-walk, South Norwalk and
East Norwalk, and Attorney John E.
Light. The choir, ass1sted, by Thomas
E. Perkins; pianist, and Howard A.
Tilly, cornetist, contributed much 'to-
ward the success and enjoyment of the
occasion
After an o‘fl’ertory by the choir, and a
hymn by the congregation, Rev. A; J.
Smith, of East Norwalk, opened the
meeting with prayer, followed by Fred
Force, who sang with pleasing effect,
3'] Shall be Satisfied." Mrs. J ames Gol-
den accompanied.
A. Blanchard, president of the Citi-
zens‘ League, then introduced the first
speaker of the afternoon, Rev. R. 0.
Sherwood, pastor of the Baptist church.
Mr. Sherwood said he wished to empha-
size his personal position, and at the
same time give a word of
encouragement to those who might
not be i1: sympathy with the move-
ment, We have declared an open war-
fare against one of the greatest evils in
our land. There are differences of
opinion as to the best methods of bring-
ing about the end We have in view.
Some favor a still hunt, thinking that 11,
be more effective, but we declare open
warfare against the saloon, and thus
give the saloon-keeper the privilege of
accepting our challenge, and show, if he
can, why this evil should exist. We
have entered upon this campaign with
the purpose of inducing men to vote
tin-license at the coming clcctiou. It is
one of the principles of good govern-
ment that the majority should rule, and
if the vote of the majority should be for
license, we will accept the situation
and abide by the law; we will not
become anarchists because we believe
differently from others. We stand fairly
and squarely on this issue. All we ask
if we receive no—liconsc is the saun-
fair terms we propose to give if the
election goes the other way. We shall
abide by the decision of the majority,
and shall demand that'the saloon do
likewise. In conclusion the speaker
said there had been some doubt expressed
as to the enforcement of the law if
n1 1-license should be secured. Probably
liquor would be sold in Norwalk, even
with the most rigid onf1‘1rci'ment of the
law, but the saloon, with all its ' fondant
evils, would be abolished. Uthcr'citics,
much larger than Norwalk have succeed
ed in suppressing the saloon. and what
has been done, we can do. When once
a law prohibiting the sale of liquor i1-
placed upon the records of this
town, thccitizcns have public interest
and publié spirit enough to see that tllt
law is enforced. If the outcome of this
no-liceuse campaign shall I111. defeat we
w ill accept. the decision and respect the
law, but if we are victorious, we will
say with an emphasis unmistakably
strong, the law shall be kept!
Itev. A. S. Kavunagh was the next
speaker on the programme. He spoke
most forcibly for about nah our, his
address being in substance s follows:
”The liquor traffic, whether governed
by high or 111w license is the abomina-
tion of abominations. I am glad we are
here not in the interest of high license
or low license, but of nodicense. 10‘
no—license be the watchword around
which we rally during this campaign
I have twenty-four reasons why' you
should vote ire—license, but not having a
day or two in which to talk, I will omit
the first twenty, and give you thelast
four. ‘In the first place we should vote
n11~li1111nse this year because the law
passed nineteen years ago was con—
ccded a failure. Will 11 c1 m'sunity lilre
this 11: 11V down lefore the 1umsellers and
confess that a few men engaged in their
nefarious business can 1,110,111.11 from an-
forcing the law today? No! If this
town votes ire—license every voter will
see to it that he is appointed a commit.
11111 of one to help enforce the law. In
the next place the present officials
will endeavor to enforce. the
laws. Th1 prmocntiug attorney for
Fairflcld county is on our side. The
letter received from 11211111 H. Light, in
which he uflinns that if Norwalkls
carried for no license, he will endeavor
tothe utmost of his ability to enforce
the law is one of the most encouraging
Signs of the times. Today he is 111 posi-
tion and stands ready to help III in this
work, but he. may soon be called to
represent as in Congress, or to some
other high position. Now' 111 the oppor-‘
for no license. In the third place we
should vote no l1cense because of the
animus ‘ of the liquor tralIIc.
While there are some men among
the liquor dealers who would abide
by the law and close their saloons
should the law so order, the traffic is
nevertheless a law breaking business,
and its natural trend is to override the
law. For this reason it ought to be
abolished. The fourth reason why we
should vote nealiccuso is on account of
the homes of this community. Acon-
scrvntive estimate places the amount
taken from the pockets of the working
people of this' community, and given to
the saloonkecper, at'two hundred thous-
and dollars yearly. A more probablet
0 1111111111 would be three or four hundred
thousand. Mr. Kavanagh made an elo-
quent appeal for the women and chil-
dren of the homes made wretched by
the existence of the saloon, and closed
his address by urging the citizens to
vote not as they prayed, with closed
eyes, but to vote with their eyes open.
Rev. G. H. Beard offered the follow-
ing resolutions, which were unanimous-
ly adopted:
Winnnms, In the present endeavor to
rid Norwulk of the licensed liquor
saloon, and s11, in a measure, of the enor-
mous evils caused by it, there is urgent
need of every force that aims at the
moral and industrial prosperity of our
town, be it
Resolved That this meeting called
by the Citizens‘ Leaguow further the
no-license cause, acknowledges with
great satisfaction the influences for good
sure to follow the fearless .1n1llog11al
stand for no- -licenso taken by the I'Zvcn-
ing Hour and the Evening Sentinel, and
be it further
Resolved, That- whilo refraining from
any attempt to dictate to those who
may conscientiously differ from us, this
meeting hereby 1leclarcs itself in favor
of gin the utmost moral and financ 111‘.
suppo to those merchants of our town.
who, ing in favor of 1111- -lic ensc, take
1111 open and manly attitude. against the
.aloon, and that we urge upon all who
have business dealings 1n tow 11 to do the
same.
President Blanchard then introduced
Frank A. Ferris, as the next speaker of
tho 11ftcrnoon. Mr. Ferris 11111111.1 a brief
but impressive speech, urging upon th11
voters the great need of their taking :1
positive 1111.111 in the crisis through
which the 111m: of Norwalk is about to
pass. 1111 s' .1. d tliorl was no sucll thing
as neutrality 1111 the issue that confronts
us today. We cannot remain on Illf
fence on the license question, for if we
are not :1v11w111lly against it our i11-
fluencc counts on the side of Satan, and
honco for tho saloon. Tlic dovil chuck-
les every time he sees a man who claims
to occupy a neutral position on the li-
cense question. Mr. Ferris closed his
addrcss by appealing to every votcr pro—
~'1111t to cast his ballot 011 October 1'1, for
no-liccnso, and to urge his ileighbors to
do the same. .
The last speaker on the pri‘1granuur1
was Charles W. Bell, of Rowayton.
Mr. Bell began his remarks by saying he
Wuuld like to take exception to '.1 state
moot 11111dc, that the lie-license law of
1577 was a failure in Norwalk. 1111 c111-
phatically affirmed that it was not a
failure, but :1 grand success. To be sure
liquor might have been sold in collars
and garrets, and out of the way places,
but in every case the law was enforced
and parties carrying 1111 the business
secretly" were punished as soon as dis-
covered Furthermore. no saloon keeper
during that year of no- l-iccnse, was able
to make 11 living from the liquor sold
under such conditions, and with our pre-
sent facilties for enforcing the law, it is
certain tint very few of them Would 11t-
temp to carry on their busineds should
the town vote no—licensc this year. 111
closing, Mr. Bell made an urgent appeal
to the voters in Ichulf of the homes, the
wives and children of our commity, em-
phasizing the necessity for every man to
do his whole duty at the ballot box on
Monday next.

beater, who 113121 on trial before Judge
Frost in the Norwulk side of the Town
Court, Saturday, was disposed of by the
judge sentencing Libby to pay a flnobf
$71 for drunkenness and to spend ninety
(lays in Bridgeport jail. It was after 5
o‘clock when the sentence was pronounc-
ed. aud Libby'remaincd incarcerated in
the No1 walk lockup over Sunday, being
taken to jail this morning.
It will be remembered that the testi-
mo 1y of the neighbors on Grand street
gave Libby not only the name of a
drunkard and a brute, but even worse
for the assault which he conunittod upon
his weak and defenseless wife. !
Judge Frost said the case was one of
the most revolting that had ever came
before him,witli no extenuating circum-
stances, and that the prisoner was
entitlcd to no consideration as far as the
assault wont, it being unnatural and
unqualified.
Great sympathy is expressed for the
frail little woman who has silently
suffered Libby's indignitcs until they
became so terrible that she Could no
longer endure them. Both Libby and
his Wife are English, coming to this
country some time ago. He had always
trcatcd her with rcspoct until recently,-

It is believed that Mrs. Libby will

ABDLISIIIIEIIT III THE SALllIlII.
Rev. 8. II. Watkins, I11 his Sermon on “The
Christian and the Saloon,” Says We Must
Provide a suhslIIuIe—The Saloon a
Totally Bad Place. '
Rev. 8. II. Watkins spoke on “The
Christian and the Saloon,” at Grace
church, last night. His text was: "Be
not overcome with evil,bnt overcome»
evil with good.” He said the saloon is
a moral, andrthercfore a spiritual que‘s- ‘
tion; no political" questions, however,
would ever be discussed in his pulpit by
him. There is no law of ( 1111 saying
that any man should totally abstain
from it. St Paul was a temperate man,
but that did not apply to the drink
habit. lie was temperate in word,
thought, deed and speech. Undoubted-
ly if he lived today and under like con—
ditions he would be a total abstaiuer.
The saloon is a totally bad placc and of
no good use. « ltis claimed 11 sour; of
revenue; so we 'lottcrics until made
illegal. Some say “It brings business."
So (lid slavery, which, when carried on
people said: “Take away slavery and
you take our business awayfi-I. All this
has been 'done, yet business‘gbcs on as
usual. The saloons am the centers of
moral, political and physical corruption
and productive of only bad fruit. P111)-
ple in blind zeal, lacking proper Judg-
ment, say abolish ,it by force; by one

efforts is a dismal failure. In his
