THE GREAT DESTROYER I
SOME STARTLINC FACTS ABOUT '
THE VICE OF INTEMPERANCE*"
The SsnlleBsneaa of the Brewer Mtkei '
Itself Manifest In the Publicity Baits
TVfileh He Itsnes to Cateb tbe Weak
and the Unwary.
In 110 way does tte soullessness of ,
ilie brewer manifest itself as In its ad- .
vertisemeuts, declares a temperance *
paper. A year or two ago a man died .
in n neighboring State at an age eon- J
siderably over 100 years. So remark- !
able was Lis longevity that an enterprising
brewer sent a photographer, 1
ostensibly out of the goodness of his j
heart, to secure n likeness of the cen- 1
tenarian. Arranging his subject on
the lawn, in front of the window, and J
surreptitiously placing a bottle of a cec- :
tain brand of intoxicants on the sill, J
he secured tbe much-coveted likeness;
then, without the knowledge or con- f
sent of the innocent eld man, who had '
been all his life a total abstainer, ad- ;
vertised him as a user of their concoction
and attributed thereto his long life. J
Our attention has just been directed .
to another defamation perpetrated by
this heartless worker of death, and J
one that should call forth the most ve hement
protest from every American
citizen, be he temperate or not. The '
r.qnufacturer of a certain brand of J
beer has scattered an advertisement J
broadcast into which he drags our ]
President. Tbe picture is called "At .
the bottom of Oyster Bay." The theme
is the recent descent of our President
in a submarine craft, and the adver- .
tisement 'represents the President at
the head of the boat, smiling his delight
"while it moves amidst a sunken
cargo of this particular brand of beer,
with the words beneath, "And it's
's beer, too!" We had been half
watching for this; we knew these people
had been seating foreign rulers at
tables drinking their beer, but hardly
thought them brazen ar.I bold enough
to go the length they finally did and
compel our own President to pay tribute
to tneir business in an unholy beer
advertisement. We believe President
Roosevelt would be righteously indignant
to see himself thus unwarrantably
portrayed. We make our criticism
on the same ground that we
would should the flag of our country
be thus desecrated. It is in the 6ense
that they have used the likeness of
Roosevelt the President, not Roosevelt
the man, wc lift our voice in positive
protest. . . ,
It is just this spirit that will event- '
ually destroy the institution of the saloon.
The public is long-suffering,'
very patient, but we believe this heartless
disregard of the common decencies
of life, this tampering with the good,
name of our citizenship is something
good men will not stand for, and sooner !
or later win evidence their disapproval
in a manner and with a force sufficient
to drive the saloon out of commission. '
A Question Answered. '
Has intemperance anything to do
with the demonstrated inferiority of
Russian military leadership? American
Medicine thinks that it has, and
compares the habitual if not total abstinence
of the Japanese officers with
the notorious consumption of vodka
and champagne by the Russians.
This, it says, is not merely a question
of drunkenness at the moment of danger,
but of cumulative enV>ct of daily
doses of alcohol. "The Russian officer
is notorious, by general report, of
course, for the large quantities of alcohol
he daily consumes, and it is impossible
for any brain to submit to
such insults without undergoing the
changes long known to take place in
heavy drinkers. It is not remarkable,
then, that the older officers, who are
managing the campaign, are constantly
outwitted by the healthy minded Japanese.
It Is apparently not so much a
question of drunkenness as it Is one of
pothological results of long continued
excessive drinking without drunkenness."
This is the medical verdict as
to the results in brain deterioration of
long continued consumption of alcohol,
even in doses moderate enough to keep
the user out of the ranks of the drunken.
The implications of this verdict in
regard to social drinking of our own
army and navy?not to say of civil life
?will hardly need to be pointed out to
intelligent readers.
A Seiiolble Printer.
A Ntew Orleans paper tells of a printer
who, when his fellow workmen went
out to drink beer during working hours
put in the bank the exact amount
which he would have spent if he had
gone out to drink with them. He kept
to his resolution for five years. He
then examined his bank account, and
Sound that he had on deposit $521.85.
In the five years he had not lost a day,
from ill health. Four or five or nis leilow
workmen had in the meantime become
drunkards, were worthless ab
workmen'and .were discharged. The
water drinker bought a printing office,
went on enlarging his business, and in
twenty years from the time he'.began
to put by his money was worth $100,000.
Records Public Matter.
The temperance people at York, Pa.,
waged war on a certain hotel which
had a bar. Rev. E. E. A. Deavor attempted
to secure the names of "the
signers and bondsmen on the hotel
keeper's petition for license, but the
clerk of the court refused on the ground
that it would injure the reputation of
the signers to have their names published.
Judge Stewart, before whom
tut? tttoe ?no uutiu, ruj ov.uniiiieij
rebuked this idea, and eaid: "Who
las constituted the clerk of the courts
the guardian of the reputations of
the people who sign applications for
license? It is right of every man to
print or publish (from public records)
on any subject, being responsible for
the abuse of that liberty."?Keystone
