The snic ofLiquor by DruggIsts.

To the Editor of the Dallas Herald;
At the annual meetingof the Amerl-
can Pharmaceutical association, held
ut Louisville, n.y., September, 1874,
proposal was made that some action
he taken to influence II repeal, or at
least to modify the present law re-
curing druggists to pay license for the
sale of liquors. But an objection was
at once raised on the ground that, if
the druggist was not required to pay
such license, every saloon keeper
would put out drug sign, and under
that shield would continue his bust
ness.
However, ii is not my object to dis
cuss the justice or injustice of such en-
forcements, but leave it to the public
to judge whether or not the conscien.
ti0us pharmacist should suffer the
same penalties, and be placed ON an
equilibrium with the retail liquor
dealer or saloon keeper, either legally
or morally, or especially subject him
self to the risks of heavy fine or the
disgrace of attending II prosecution,
though he strongly endeavors to apply
them only as II medicinal agent per-
sonally or through the prescription of
a physician. But there is not doubt
that the present laws have been caused
by the indiscriminate sale and abuse
made by druggists, simply because the
privilege was afforded them, and while
i believe That a greater number of our
profession comfine their sales to its
legitimate requirements, there are
many who have disgraced the pro-
fessi0B by using the title az a screen
by which 10 indulge 10 aa extensive
liquor tfsiiiei even no mGeh 20 az 10
arouse the envy Of ihe salo0n keeper.
Usually you sill see q hack room,
aud occasionally aD up stairs one,
stocked with liquors VI every oescyip-
ton and glasses convenient, 100 which
customers can ilnbibe ad iibitOn. sim
ply 10y the purchase or expected pur-
chase Of a few remote articles, ana an
other very popular custom 10 dispose
OF it, is from the soda fountain, from
which customers can get the desired
drink by calling for il by myterious
names, and innumerable disguised
ways and secret devices resorted to for
the sale and escape of the laws. Why
do many of our druggists become so
popular, not deservedly so, but merely
because they allow their customers free
access to their liquors aud in turn receive
their compensation for overcharge on
goods, aud 10y such efforts for trade in.
duce many men to become drunkards,
degraded and disgraced. And, beside
this, look ut the demoralizlhg influence
it has upon clerks and apprentices who
are cut off from all pleasures of society,
ana are, OF course, very prone to yield
to the temptation, and become even
more susceptible 10y hours of continued
application TO which they are sub
jected.
Aud now, can not some one suggest
means by which to distinguish the
pharmacal saloon from the legitimate
pharmacy? y.

THE TEXAS AND PACIFIC OUT
LOOK.

From the best information The
HERALD can obtain, the prospects of
congressional aid are very propitious
The iron men of Pennsylvania have
brought to bear their influence, which
Is great, and their representations rela-
tive to the advantages to business at
large of the resumption of this work,
have been most urgent and convinc-
ing. In about thirty days, it is conf
IDENTIFY anticipated that work will be
commenced on the line between here
and Fort Worth. The cost of building
this part of the road will be about
thirty-flve thousand dollars u mile, as
there is good deal of bridging tressel
and rock-work to be done When
commenced, it will be rapidly pushed
on to Fort Worth, In order that it may
reach there before July, and thus pre-
vent any possibility of ~ forfeiture of
the state land grant.
Now, IL Congress should not decide
to guarantee the interest on the COM
pany's bonds, as asked by Mr.. Scott,
upon the terms he proposes, the line
between here and Fort Worth will be
completed and the Trans-continental
gap closed, The next move, without
congressional aid, would probably be
to secure a feeder by the closing of the
gap between Shreveport and Monroe,
and thus gain the immense passenger
and Immigration traffic that u nearer
route to the Atlantic states, the middle
states and the north and east would
give. Our people may rest assured
that nothing will be left undone to
command success in these enterprises,
and that Dallas will continue to reap
the reward of her enterprise and natu.
raj advantages of location.
