Anti-oplum socie ties have been formed' everywhårs and are | the multiplying rapidly, In' several places there were great popular demonstrations whoo the dens were closed. A hopeful sign is that many educated young men have entered tuto the movement heart and soul, with the idea of elieving their country and its people of a terrible burden,

Possibly, therefore, much good may come out of the evil through this great awakening. The reformers will be tried 'in a persistent warfare"
