TEMPERANCE
TRMPERANCU has received threo notablo
boosts In tho last six mouths, and maga
zlno articles reflect tho Increasing public in
terest. Tho Czar's; edict banishing nil liquor
from Russia during1 tho war, which It Is
rumored may bo extended Indefinitely nftor
tho war, so satisfactory lmvo been tho re
sults; Czar Danlols' edict banishing nil liquor
from tho American navy, nnd tho recent con
gressional voto on a constitutional prohibi
tion nmondment, nro nil national issues
which lmvo attracted tho widest attention.
Our matter-of-fnet accoptnnco of total nb
stlncnco In tho navy last fall makes a notablo
contrast to tho liuo and cry raised by tho
abolition of tho nrmy canteen 15 years ngo.
This last Is a far moro drastic measure, In
that It affects officers an well ns men nnd
turns tho warships Into literal water wagons,
whereas tho army can always find solaco In
saloons on tho edge of tho reservations. It Is
only another Indication of tho tremondous
growth of tho temperance movement In tho
last decade.
Summing up tho progress of temperanco for
tho Review of Roviows (1), Dr. F. C. Igle
heart, of tho Anti-Saloon League, writes:
"To many persons tho most significant moral
nnd political ovent of a generation was tho
majority voto given to tho national constitu
tional prohibition bill In tho House of Repre
sentatives. Tho proposed amendment calling
for natlon-wlda prohibition failed to receive
tho required two-thirds majority, but it ob
tained 137 alllrmatlvo votes to 1SD cast against
It. This was A noteworthy event, slnco It
marked tho highest point yet reached In this
country in tho long crusado against tho solo
of liquors.
"Sixty years ngo nlno Northern States went
dry In a Blnglo year. Most of them lapsod Into
license, and up to 1907, out of 18 that tried the
experiment, only thice Mninc, Kansas and
North Dakota retained prohibition.
"Tho majority voto cast by tho national law
makers at Washington In favor of natlon-wldo
prohibition emphasizes tho widespread hatred
of tho saloon. It expresses the rebuko of
millions of voters of this country, who bollevo
that thoro hnvo been persistent Interference and
corruption of American politics by tho brewers
and distillers' associations tho first and worst
of all trusts.
"Russia going dry by Imperial proclamation
and hostility to drink as a, general war meas
ure will hasten tho passage of this national
law."
Extinguishing the Cocktail
Although tho temperance peoplo did not
muster tho nee'essary two-thirds voto for
carrying tho prohibition amendment, they aro
rather cheered than discouraged by tho fact
that they did rocelvo n majority vote, and
thoy aro talking with confidence of tho tlmo
when cocktail and liquor glasses will bo ex
hibited In our museums as extinct curiosi
ties. La Folletto's comments (2):
"Tho defeat of his resolution wns expected by
ReprcsentatUo Hobson, but the heavy support
It received undoubtedly will encourage the dry
i-upportcrs to try again with tho now Congress
to obtain adoption of tho resolution for sub
mission to the oters ot a constitutional amend
ment under which nil trafllc In alcoholic Cov
erages would bo brought to an end."
There Is an Interesting analysis of "Why
Arizona Went Dry" (3) In Tho Now Republic,
by Carleton Parker, which gives a sense of
tho many complications and lnterweavlngs
which go to accomplish any political achieve
ment: "Arizona hns but 68,000 voters. The State
went dry by about 4500. Using the Bartenders'
Union as an agent, tho Royal Arch obtained
tho pnssngo through the convention of the
Stato Federation of Labor of a 'wot' resolu-,
tlon. This success, howover, held a flareback.
The local unions around the State, amid much
passing of resolutions, bolted these convention
Instructions.
"Negroes have always been barred from nil
but the Mexican saloons, nnd It Is but reason
hblo that they should hurl themselves Into the
llqufijltijitrenclnnent. Ono Negro leader said:
'I donJt see how I am expected to get patrlotlo
over a place I'm not allowed to go Into.' The
Negro population, almost to a voter, dug out
Its hatchets and with Joy sharpened them for
tho now humble and petitioning saloon man,
"The Mexican considers that to steep himself
for two days (after pajdny) In tho combination
of deuntuied alcohol and aniline dye, locally
known as 'red eye,' and then to wreck his
cabin, is to achieve as much of heaven as a
poor man can hope. A large per cent, of the
unskilled miners In Arizona are Mexicans and
a rough 100 per cent, deport themselves as de
scribed. Henco the mine managers and their
following wero not out laboring night and day
to uphold tho Integrity of the mining camp
taloon
"The 'wets' Imported the many times ex
Mayor of the wettest town In the United States,
and he cited quotations from the Scriptures
which showed thut practically all tho revered
figures of tradition had lived with regard to
beverages either a dissolute and disorganized
life or had spent their literary efforts extolling
Buch existence. Tho 'drys met this by a mov
ing picture film, entitled 'Ten Nights in a Bar
room,' shown nightly to thousands which por
trayed bucIi highly colored and regretful ac
tivities In tho saloon business that people who
had never seen a saloon were exceedingly dls
tuibed." Tho Widow In Town Topics, who la In
clined to take a conservative, If not reac
tionary, view of matters, is very resentful
over tho progress of prohibition, which she
terms "an Interference with personal lib
erty" (:
"In Washington, D. C there are already
some s(ll).' little laws that Interfere with per
sonal liberty. Somebody got through a law
that a woman could not have a drink unless
she ate something. It did not eeem to be the
moral of It, but the intoxication of it
"If she ate sho would not whoop or howl,
cry or laugh, or tomahawk. At first sho had
to eat GO cents' worth. But the stomach when
decently filled refuses food, whether food
means morals or not, so tho law of SO cents
was cut to 25 cents,
"At San Antonio, Tex., the law did not say
either man or woman, but if you wanted a
drink cocktail or anything else you had to
get It yourself at tha bar. The waiters would
not servo you. This law seemed to hit women
particulaly, as as yet there are mighty few
women wanting this sort of refreshment enough
to go to a bar and, with a foot on the brass
rail, ask for It and drink It But if you had a
man with you he could go to the bar and get
It, and he could bring it to you. Still there are
ways, even In San Antonio. Sometimes when
you take your seat you find the cocktail on
the table. And on the trains In Texas If you
are going through to San Francisco you can
be served, but at some stations you must be
careful that you are not caught with the glass
in front of you some zealous protector of taw
or graft might bo spying through the window
and make trouble,"
All reports of prohibition In Russia and its
results eeem to be highly enthusiastic. An
editorial In Tho Delineator comments (S);
" 'Hussla Now Dry More Prosperous Than
Ever Before.' So said a headline In the New
York WorM after more than two mouths of
war and of prohibition in Russia, Business In
Russia bag Veen hard hit, Russia; was calling
young tntn away frem earning money to fight
ing; but nobody In Russia was. drinking vodka,
and bsholct the results:

richer. Their total deposits In the avng
o&nks were bigger than on tho corresponding
day of the previous year. Vodka had been n
Government monopoly. It had yielded a rev
enuo of 500,000,000 a year. Tho Russian Gov
ernment sacrificed oil that money as soon a
war wa declared In order to moke the Rus
sian people fitter to fight Russia May gain
additional territory by tho war. Will any
such gain do as mu6h for her prosperity and

vodka? Wo think not"

An oppostto point of view, as held in the?
Continental armies and navies. Is nummftd
up by Georgo S. Vlcrock In Tho International '
(6). Their official attitude, as here quoted, In
especially interesting as contrasted with tho
recent action of Secretory Daniels in forcing
total abstinence upon our navy, officers nnd
men. Mr. Vlcrock writes:
"Alcohol lias many Btrong defendors In the
Gormnn nrmy, who point out that tho most
glorious victories of tho German arms since
tho days of Frederick woro not accomplished
by teetotalers. Thoy point to tho defeat of the
abstinent Turks by tho nonabstlnent Bulgarians,
nnd they call attention to tho pitiful state of
tho Chtneso army, whoso soldiers are addicted
to drugs, although thoy abstain from liquor,
Frollioir von Goltz, tho now Military Governor
of Belgium, in his capacity as commanding
general, warned Gormany of tho dangers to
tho efficiency of hor army from toetotallsm.
"Tho Austrian nrmy scorns to take a similar
point of vlow. Their Navy Department refused
an Invitation to send a ropresentatlvo to tha
Austrian Nonalcohol Congress last year.
"In general, as a mombor of tho Ministry of
Wnr explained to me, tho idea of the German
authorities is to provide 'for tho greatest pos
siblo efficiency with tho least possible Inter
ference with personal liberty of tho Individual
soldier.' Tho authorities agreo with Professor
Schulonburg that 'It Is wrong to describe cer
tain articles of food as harmful morely because
n minority of weak-willed persons are unable
to restrain themselves from excess."
