May Anti-Saloon League "was born ct God and will fight on while He leads," De. F. Scott McBride, league superintendent, told the senate lobby committee in a warm debate with wet committee investigator, Senator Blaine, lican, Wisconsin. Blaine charged McBride's remark was "Satrilegious and an outrageous thing." "Those things in the way the progress of the a kingdom of cold must get out of the way," the referring to ent continued, apparently the wets. "What authority hate you for claimIng a that the league is the 'son of God?" Blaine heatedly asked, waving hia pencil at McBride, "The league began in a prayer meetIng at Oberlin, "Did you get A message from God that he gave birth to your organization?"

"Oh, yes, you put on the cloak af "We do not put on a cloak-it is real religion." "I don't believe God would approve of some of your practices," returned Blaine. "I think your statement is sacrilegious and outrageous thing. That's how I feel about it." Chairman Caraway objected to this line of questioning saying men might differ about it.

"But you do have divine guidance?" Blaine persisted. "'Let's get down to lobbying," objected Senator Robinson, dry, Republican, Indiana. "Yes," said McBride, "we are entering a field that is far beyond us." "Oh, no, not beyond you, according to your claim," said Blaine, nevertheless, returned to the alleged political activities of the league. is done in "Very little political political work we do 19 back in the Washington," said McBride.

"I did not say the league did it, but. that the dry sentiment of the country did it," McBride said. "But you took credit for it?" "I gave the dry sentiment credit for it." McBride did not get as excited Blaine, but the dry leader rose to his feet a moment later when Blaine produced the book of Justin Steuart, publicity man for the league, claiming the late Superintendent Wayne B. Wheeler "dictated to two presidents of the United States, dominated six congresses and controlled more patronage than any other dozen men." McBride repudiated the book although Blaine brought out Steuart: is still employed by the league. "He was secretary to Mr.

Wheeler." said McBride. "He was a good publicity man but not very much ed with the Anti-Saloon league." "Was he a truthful "I don't know." McBride said the book WAS not authorized by the league.
