INTEMPERANCE
Intemperance by the use of spirituous
liquors, happily seems to be on the
wane. This we know to be true as re-
gards Centre county, and the observa-
tion of men who give this subject spe-
vial attention leads to the same conclu-
sion as to the land in general.
Taking our own county, thirty years
ago the number of applicants for tav-
ern and saloon licenses annually was
upwards of seventy. These gradually
diminished until of recent years there

nearly at a corresponding ratio. This
gratifying abatement of the evil of
drunkenness has been brought about
by the moral effect of the war waged
against the sin and the enforcement of
stringent liquor laws.
“In 50 years from now I doubt
whether there’ll be a saloon in the
United States,” is the speech of Dr
Leslie E. Keeley, whose efforts to cure
men of the drink habit have brought
him into wide notice, He is an elder-
ly gentleman, whose snow-white hair .
florid complexion, and blue eyes give
him a rather notable and pleasing ap-
pearance. The doctor was seen at the
Shoreham, in Washington, and he
chatted pleasantly with a “Post” re-
porter about, the part he had taken in
reclaiming that portion of humanity
that was prone to look too <fsn on the
en in the glass, | But Dr. Keeley is an
| optimist as regards his own country.
