Dr. L?vsin<r Burrows has the following to say about "The Folly of Drinks ?? \ Had it oot been for a drunken V. banquet, Herod's soul might have I ^ vj been gnjltless of the blood of that righteous mat> who was greatest Jtjpopg aU the* prophets of God. How many crimes would have t * been avoided had it not been for : v S*;.. -drink. The fruit reaped upon the gallows is sown jh the saloon; from its festive hilarites eoines the army of recruits for jails and asyInms. Is it strange that for fthe & sake of a drunken revel a poor BSsNfr' * ' i fool should promise half his kingWsm dom and really commit a murder. Vain blusteringa and horrible crimes occur every dhv, and they are the results ot drink. It is more strange that we do not realise that drink fs the cause of most ot our troubles and sorrows Health, prosperity, reputation, peace, and even heaven are the V .</ prices men pay for |he exhilaratb~ fag draught, and yet we esteem it as the necessity of social custom >'. and the badge of respectability and the prolific source of public revU enue. But kings'banquets must have wine, and wine must have ^ Wood* 1 1 Liberty And Prohibition. |vr t -We clip the following excellent article from the editorial columns K^ of the Baptist Courier: Many opposera of prohibition ' fAnii.Af mol-inf it a n no a r fhul prohibition-is an unwise depriva lion of the rightful liberties of the citizen. They say that a man has u a right tedrink intoxicants when* ? ever he pleases, and even to get drank, provided he does not tres pass npon the rights of others. \ s In answer to this objection, it may be said that much depends } upon the kind of right that is olrftmed, as well as upon the condition expressed. As matters now ataod-, it is plain that under existing laws in our State a raau may have a legal right to that liberty. *' V . ' ^%VWWWVWWWWWV? ^ I TI?N : 11 rrxiisNT. Jj VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVWVW\ J2 : j ISON, Eoitor. ZZ | : It is also plain that he lias a right j I to that liberty in the sense that it j is quite possible for him to exer-! i eise it, should he wish to do so. j | He has the natural libertv. and so i I j has a savage. But as to whether it is moral'v right for him toexerI eise that right, and whether on : the ground that it is morally wrong ! for him to do so, it is sueh a moral | wrong as the Slate should take i j in hand, Is quite another question, j It is here affirmed that, the ex j lercise of sueh a libertv, even j i, .., ' ........; . ! inougn Ji uoes now exisi, is moral- j j ly wrong. Experience Inn taught j j us in many sad lessons that even ! i the so called moderate use of in- i i toxicants is very unwise. That j now and then a man may drink j and not gel drunk is nothing to ! the point. Now and then a man! may be found who can wak a j wire rope, and that even across Niagara river. But to note ex-j eeptions is to prove rules. Driiia J ling even when in a measure controlled is so palpably unwise and dangerous, that it is positively immoral. And if such measured in- 1 i i jdulgence is immoral, surely that j I which is less limited can find no) defender. The man who stickles j for liberty for his fellow-men toj | ajet drunk, must admit thai such i an exercise of it is immoral. The only remaining question is| whether the morality is of such j a nature that the State ought to take cognizance of it, and, if possi ble, prevent it. It is here contended that this immorality of drinking intoxicants does come within the just prohibitive powers of the gateway to such evils as insanity, , suicide, bestiality, and murder, to say nothing of the ills i 11 dieted on helpless women and children. Dram drinking lifts all the restraints l.f sense, dtceney and justice from the so.il, and gives tree reins to the devil of a deprav ed nature. When a man i$ prepared to defend the liberty of insane folly and the freedom . of loathsome vice, then and then ont ly can he successfully defend against legal interference the lib erty of dram-drinking. The Slate may build an asylum lor her citizens who have been made in'sane by drink, she may build prisorisfor such of them as la/e been made felons by drink; she may erect a gallows lor such as have been made murderers bv ! drink; but, forsooth, we are told that she is trespassing upon inalienable rights when she attempts to close the path that leads to these institutions. An ounce of prevention is said to he worth a pound of cure, but such a doctrine as the lore-going implies that cure is everything and.prevention nothing. It means that its very wise to try to put the wreck together again, but very foolish4 to try to re move the rocks. Or,in the case of the hanged murderer,it means prac tically that two Killings are better than a law looking to the prevention ot both. Law anil liberty must go togeth er. Law without liberty is despotism. Liberty without law is harbarism. Liberty well chasten ed by law is the highest civilization. While sophist editors, selfseeking politicians, blood money town builders and trade-makers are proclaiming tha sacredness of the liberty ot the drink-lusk, there's many a poor victim of that lusk who vainly wishes that he had been deprived of his liberty. And a fool come to his senses is wiser than one who lias not. The County Record one dollar a year. ' g V-/J. ; A v S x .* 1 'V """'r " ^ < Skin Diseases.
