It is not my purpose to marshal an array of statistics showing the well-understood relation of the saloon to. poverty and crime. I shall not attempt to picture the wrecked lives and ruined homes for which the traffic is respon sible, nor shall I tell you how it is intrenched in our great cities. From these strategic points of American civilization it reaches out to corrupt and dominate pol itics. It is undermining the very foundation of our government, but even this I shall not.discuss. Examine the question from any standpoint and It demande our thoughtful consideration;but the most important question at pres ent is, "'How is that traffic to be controlled?" This is to be done by a pro hibitive law. The discussion of this theme falls naturally into two parts, according to its duplex presentation: first, as civil law, either existing or proposed; and second, as a moral precept. These two aspects are logically quite distinct, and in some respects are artagonistic. Yet in ordinary discussions, at the hands of both friends and foes, they are con stantly confused. One rarely hears or reads an argument against prohibition which keeps clearly in view the distinction between a civil statute and a precept of morals. One rarely hears or reads an argument in favor of prohibition which does not confessedly draw its strong est plea from moral considera tions. Prohibition comes into religious assemblies and church courts,demanding that it receive their sanction and furtherance as a thing of almost religious obligation;, in some cases even seeking ecclesiastical endorse ment for a political party having prohibition as its watchword. This state of things show a most lamentable confusion of ideas, resulting in much illogical and unchristian argumentation. It is clear that the essential question is solely one of public good. The morality of the ques tion is accidental. Of course, modern society universally rec ognized, however it may fail at times in applying the broad prin ciple that open immorality is adverse to the public good. And yet, after all, the liquor laws have not been nor could they be enacted because the use or abuse of liquor is immoral, BUT be cause the abuse of it is injurious to mankind and society. If such abuses did not threaten the pub lic peace and create enormous burdens of taxation for the sup port of courts, prisons, reform a tories and asylums; if it were not the fruitful mother of crime; if the immorality of this abuse Iwere unattended by any materi al, physical or social ill conse7 ,quences to the jeopardizing of the public good, there would be no ground for interference by by the state. But such condi tions dio not exist in South Caro lina, and in order for her to up hold her dignity and majesty it b~ehooves her to intercede. Its laws against various inde cencies and moral evils are made and enforced, not for the reason that such things are wicked,but because moral corruption entails social damage. To sell or drink whiskey might be as wicked as the unipardonable sin, but if no social evil arose therefrom the civil law wvould issue no wvarrant against it. It is, then, the fact that social damage attends the abuse of liquor, that crime and violence are multiplied by it, which furnishes the state with its justifying reason for inter ference' Such reason, let it be noted, would abide and demand stationary action in the presence of any threatened danger, tho the procuring cause or instru ment of such danger were dlesti tute of all moral quality. What, then, the prohibitionist must do in order to sustain his appeal to civil legislation is to demonstrate the quality and ex tent of the evils inflicted on so ciety by the liquor traffic; to compute the burden of taxation caused by it; to count the crimes; to show the misery or ruined lives and homes; the loss to so clety and mankind through the the personal degradation and death of the drunkard, and the dangerous allurements of th( saloon which the state should entertain service of each man, woman and in her b)orders. The above questions I will en. deavor to answer in anothei issute. W. C. MANN.
