THE NO-LICENSE MOVEMENT.
i ■ ■•» —-. [BT TELEGRAPH.— ASSOCIATION.] Wanoanui, Thursday. At a meeting of the West Coast Wesleyan . Synod to-day, a 'resolution regarding the liquor trade was unanimously carried as fol-lows:'--Our past experience leads us to regard the trade as a danger to our young : people, as a fruitful source of misery and degradation among the adult population, as subversive to business, thrift, and integrity, as promoting habitual wastefulness, selfishness, and extravagance among business men, as diverting money from legitimate business and family channels, as the greatest liindrauce to success'of religious .enterprise, and as unworthy of this free and enlightened people. We rejoice in the success resulting where no-licetisc has been established, and we unite in earnest prayer that God's guiding blessing -will .attend the coming effort at the polls to secure freedom to the whole land from the evils of strong drink. ;\
