What We Cant Stop We Must
Regulate.

People will drink. We can't stop
it. We can't make people pious by
law. We can't stop rum-sellng.
"What we can't stop we must regu-
late" This is the sterotyped license
argument. Let us apply the same
argument to gaming and prostitution.
We can't stop them, why then
should we not regulate? Why not
license the gaming house and brothels
A respectable daily answers: ''Be-
cause prostitution is sin and liquor
selling is not Well, suppose liquor
selling is not sin. Sin is no suf.
ficient reason for State law. The
State legislates against injuries; it
Iegislates against crows, or wolves,
or whatever else it finds hur ful. 1t
seizes the cholera or small pox pa
tient, no matter how innocent. 1t
does not stop to ask whether the
slaughter house or powder magazine
is sinful or not. If dangerous or
harmful that is enough, sin or no sin.
Every license argument applies as
strongly to the gaming house and
brothel as it does to the dram shop.
The sanitary and police advantages
are even stronger. The customers of
a licensed gaming house are safer
from robbery and more likely to find
a "square game" But that license
increases gaming and prostitution is
the universal verdict of experience
and of common sense. 1t is curious
fact that Legislators who have licensed
either of these denominations have
always professed to do it in the in
terest Of temperance, purity and
public morals.
In general, these three pests go
together. Neitherthe gaming house
nor the brothel can be maintained
without the dram shop. The dram
shop begets and sustains them. The
legislator who votes to license the
dram-shop votes to sustain its off,

As long as you make drinking re-
spectacle, drinking customs will pre-
vail, and the plowshare Of death,
drawn by terrible disasters, will go
on turning up this whole continent
from end to end, with the long, deep,
awful furrow Of drunkard's graves.

MethOdists and the Wolf
bounty.

A Methodist minister is responsible
for the following story, which we
find in the Richmond Christian Id
cocote:, "Judge Moore, of Kentucky,
was present in his Legislature when
the member from Big Sandy-an un-
lettered delegste-made speech on
the relation of rations to religion.
The question was, whether the pre-
MUM paid for killing wolves and foxes
should be abolished? The men,
Der nodded to the Chair and said:
Mr.. Speaker, is this House going to
take away the consultations Of religion
from Big Sandy? Sir, no Episcopal
parson breaches there, for nobody has
read enough to scotch for him. The
Presbyterians, the properest preach
ers in the world, won't come, because
we can't always hold in and behave
ourselves. The Baptists have tried
all the streams about there with
pole, and none of the creeks are deep
enough, and they are skittish abou,
taking 'em into Big Sandy, for that
amt place to tussel in if you cant
swim. They were afraid to under
take Big Sandy, SO they quit. The
Methodlsts are our only chance. If
Kentucky don't keep on paying peo-
Pile for killing wild varments, the
foxes and wolves will catch all the
chickens, and then you may say fare
well to the circut-riders. The House
didn't take away the 'consolations Of
religion from Big Sandy, but paid
for killing the varments. I"

Dressing.

Olive Logan, in an article in Har-
per's Bozdr, says:
The leading idea in regard to dress
ANY dress almost--iu the mind Of
an American woman, is that it shall
be rich and costly. For many years
no black silks but those called gros
grains could Gnd purchasers in this
market. Even now, i'll these our
times Of tightening purse-strings,thls
heavy and costly fabric Is almost III
universal use, and il is nothing un-
common to see girls not out OF their
teens wearing silks of a heavness of
texture fit for pompous apparel of
gray-haired dowagers. Many French
women, whose attire has always been
"as finished as all epigram," have
never owned SO costly a dress as a
gros grain. Aud just here is the
point To note the basis of the d'tfer-
en- e between the French and the
Americans, which is visible not only
in dress. but in all other observances,
and which contribute so greatly to
the admirable ordering of life in
France, viz: the absence of preten-
sion, the avoidance or a desire to ap
pear richie. than they are, which is
the secret Of the success OF the Paris
ian salon, he petite diners, aud other
unattainabie French iuxufies. No
respectable woman in France would
consent 10 wear apparel not in strict
accordance with her established po-
stion i'll life.

A Good E..ucalson.

Most American parents resolve to
give their children good education,
but the popular idea of what this
means is very vague one. An ed.
ucation Is supposed TO be superior
knowledge of books, which will in
some way enable the possessor of i,
to take prominent position before
the public. To be educated is look
ed upon as the prerogative of the few,
the result of fsvorable' opportunities
or exceptional talent, the lack OF
which is in no way fault, but mis-.
fortune.
If parents and teachers understood
better just what was included in a
good education they are endeavoring
IT, give the children under Their
charge, the result of our public school
system would be more satisfactory
than it now is. Ruskin says a man
is well educs,ed when he always tells
the truth, when he keeps himself
clean, when he is kind, and when he
is able to take good care of himself
and his family.
Edward Everett said: To read the
English language well, to write with
dispatch neat legible hand, and he
master OF the FIRST four rules in ariih-
metic, SO as to dispose of at once,
with accuracy, every question OF fig-
ures which comes up in practice, l
call this good education. And if
you add the ability to write pure
grammatical English, regard it as
an excellent education.
These definitions include qualities
and aitainments very desirable for
all citizens to possess. To tell the
truth, to keep clean, to be kind, to
take care of ones self and family, to
dispose Of with accuracy all questions
of figures which come up in practice,
and ability 10 read and write well

Col. Scott has gone TO preaching.
His first sermon Tin the last Farmers
J1,aaaIl was on ssFaith.' He gets
off some sober truths, and sends
them home to the farmer with the
force of pile driver. We give a
specimen:
"Waut of faith is not u character
stic of the American farmer, but
much of his faith is OF poor quality.
Still, fear it may be called faith
according to knowledge. In eer-
tain degree he believes in the influ-
ence of the moon on other things
than tides; in like manner he refers
to the signs Of the Zodiac; he sees
that the weather on certain days in-
fluences the weather of certain
months or seasons; he watches for
the sun on grounding days and is
elated or oppressed according to his
faith; he believes in quack doctors,
quack lawyers, quack preachers.

quack politicians; and III common

There is vast difference between

There is vast difference betweeh
an ':independent' politician who will
not heed all the mods and becks of
rings and caucuses, and the one who
announces himself as an ''indepen-
dent" candidate for Office. The for
mer announces that he is no ones
tool, aud will not be bought or sold
by men, though loyal to party prin-
ciples; while the latter announces by
actions if not by words, that he will
be any ones tool who will help him
in his ambition. These two are apt
to be confounded, and independent
candidate is often called the indepen-
dent man, when the opposite is much
nearer the truth.
