GOOD TEMPLAR's COLUMN.
IS 1T RIGHT
Ought TippIIng Heases 20 BE Licensed
By Law?

The moral and religious status of soci
ETY. is but the fruitage of its former cul
ture. Conscience may be enlightened
and elevated by truth, or darkened and
depressed by error. Our grandfather.
thought it no bad index Of neighborly
hospitality to "put the bottle to hi;
neighbours mouth and log-rollings and
cOrn-shuckings WITHOUT plenty of whisky,
concluded by a ''dance all night were
customs sanctioned and required by pub
lie opinion. From this moral status
there has bcen steady and gradual
growth of the popular conscience into a
truer and higher conception of truth and
duty, so that the moral sense of society
today is far different from what it was
then. Nine-tenths-it is thought, if not
the other tenth-of our entire county
population, believe the law that licenses
tippling houses to be wrong. 1t is not
supposed so large a majority will vote
against whisky. Why not? Simply be.
cause many'knOw their duty but will mol
do it, Their actions do not coincide
with their own conscience as to what is
right. All such persons are SHINING
against light and knowledgc.
The right or wrong Of the whole whis-
ky ring is to be determined in the light
of the obvious effects of this business up
on society. Are any in doubt as to the
moral effect Of "still houses" and tipplins
houses upon societys Is any interest Of
society promoted by such business? Are
church-members made more piOus and
Christhkes Does the retail Of whisky
promote industry, thrift, peace and good
will among men? All men simply know
it 10 be the unchangeable foe to all these.
Its fruits are evil and ONLY evil, and
that continually. Are those who patro-
nize tippling houses improved in morals ?
Are not these houses rather the head
quarters of the profinel Is there any
real good resulting to any human being
in this world or the world to come, from
the drinking trade!
Docs it bring money into the pockets :
So the betrayal of Jesus put about fifteen
dollars into the pocket of Judas, after
which he speedily "went to his own
place" That business that can not pros.
per, nor even live, except at the injury
Of the morals OF society, ought not nor
will not receive the moral support Of any
moral man. Who patronizes tipping

Montgomery, Bath and the upper eoun-
ties to the Virginia line, and through
Virginia into North Carolina. He has
given the names Of about eighty persons
in the counties who he states are mem

revelation, nOtOriously bad character
named Satterfeld, has been arrested for
applying the torch 10 Owingsville at the

10 melt the lard and then add the meal,

meal is sixty cents bushel, and lard
twelve and half cents pound, il Is ey-
ident thai the profits 10 the manufacturer
must be immense. The Yankee wooden
