A weit-kuown preacher riding In a London omnibus wus entertained by a dialogue which was sustained upoa the one side by the driver and upoa the other by an elderly passenger. "I understand you're temperancel" began the driver. "Yes, I'm pretty strong agntnit liq uor," returned the other. 'Tve been set against It now for 35 years." "Scured It will ruin your health?" "Yes, but tliut wasn't the suuta thing." 'Tcrhnps It doesn't agr wltli you?" ventured the driver. "Well. It really don't agree wltn anybiMly. Hut that Isn't It, either. The thing Hint seta me against It It a horrible Idea." "A horrible Ideal What la It?" "Well 33 years ago I was sitting In a hotel In America with a friend of mine, nnd I snys, 'Let's order a bottle of something.' And he says, 'No, air. I'm saving my money to buy the gov ernment Innd at 7s. and Cd. per acre. I'm going to buy tomorrow, and you'd better let me take the money you would have spent for liquor and kuy a couple of ncrea along with mine. I says, 'All right. So we didn't drlnlc, and he bought me two acres. "Well, sir, today those two acres are right ln the middle of a flourishing town, and If I'd ordered that bottle I'd have swallowed a city block, a grocery store, an apothecary's shop, four lawyer's offices, and It's hard to say what else. That's the Idea. AJa't it horrible !" ECONOMIC FOLLY. The Saloon Is an Economic Folly and Must Go," Is the slogun of a bust, ness men's league of Oakland, CaL, with a membership of over WW. A statement signed by the league In cludes the following clauses: 'The liquor tmfllc exists at the ex pense of all other Industries. The revenue to the state, derived from liquor licenses, Is overbalanced by losses to the state Inseparable fraa the use of liquor. "Its elimination Is good business, be cause It will promote thrift, economy nnd prosperity. This will mean mors work nnd better wages. "We therefore favor the passage of either or both of the two proposed amendments affecting the liquor traf fic, to be voted upon this fall by taa electorate of California." PERSONAL LIBERTY. "In Chicago we hear mneh about personal liberty," snys Mr. Fred Kber llng, secretary of the Cooks' union, Chicago, "especially during campaigns. What do the brewers mean by per sonal liberty? The three big icronal liberty gnrdeas of this city have told the representatives of their employee that they will not deal with them ex cept ns Individual employees while the brewers belong to the Chicago liquor trust, an organization which wages wnr against orgnnlxcd labor. When a license wns refused to one of these beer gardens, the cry for person al liberty wns henrd from the big liquor combine, but when seven dnys per week workers make a demand for Kttliir, irr fti I , 1 11 r. t K entity .MU rl A cry 'nnnrcUlsts.' " COMMENDS PROHIBITION. Samuel Mclloberts, one of tho Tlee presidents of the National City bank of New York, has been In Russia re cently where he arranged a loan of ?.0,000.000 to the Russian governmeat Mr. McT.oberts snys: "Russia now offers a wonderful op portunity to Am-rlcnn capital and business enterprise. The people of America do not appreciate the extent of the Russian mnrket or Russian re sources, but should prepare now for great Russian trado after the wnr. I traveled for three dnys through terri tory as fertile as the best port of Iowa and flllnols. With vodka prohibited and tho wnr concluded, Russia will ripen Into prosperity." BEER MORE NOXIOUS. Modern scientific research has Rhown that, contrnryi..t,o general be lief, beer Is propnr'tioruifefy' much more noxious tiiS0TrV tittinrt or liquors; says Dr. LVotu Ifn Sowers In the American MftjprrkeJ'.remen ' Anti-Alcohol congress, n'omcihve of many of the most fanl?st'f4l?slciaB8 In Europe, concluded that while liquor makes a man brutal and dulls his Judg ment, nn ndequnfe amount of beer makes htm slow-witted and abolishes Judgment, while wine or brandy, la sufficient quantity, makes a man cnuty. TRUS INDICTMENT. "Upon whnt does the-wueeess of the liquor trudlc d.'pendr Awl an swering this, Its owa question, edi torially put, the New York Tribune some time ago thus voiced the genernt public sentiment: "Upon debased manhood, degraded woumnhood. de frauded childhood.
