Temperance Education.

We do not understand that the recent
legislation by Congress, and nearly a
score of States, was for the sake of
having physiology, as such, taught in
the schools, OF of having it taught in
such way as to put small emphasis
upon the danger of beginning to drink;
least of all of emitting altogether the
danger of the light drinks, as beer,
wine and cider.
Every body condemns drunkenness
to-day. There is no need of spending
the pupils time on that. Neither are
the youth and children who will study
physiological Temperance ordinarily
drunkards needing to be reformed, but
they do need to know, and the law
intends they shall be instructed in the
forms of alcohol they will be tempted
to drink. ANY omission of this phase
of the subject. or lack of emphatic
teaching on these subjects, must there
fore meet with our direct opposition.
The object of the special legislation
of the past two years in this matter i3
to promote Temperance by creating an
intelligent sentiment in the rising gem
Grafton through the best knowledge of
themselves. their enemies-alcohol and
other narcotics-and all the evils tend
ing to destroy body, mind and soul
through the use of these.
We believe that the basis of the pro-
posed education should be an intelli-
gent knowledge OF what alcohol is-its
presence and unchanged character in
the popular beverages in which it is
ordinarily found and followed by suf-
fcient physiological law as tangible
reason for total abstinence, all of which
is incorporated in the true study of
scientific Temperance in the public
schools. We lsave worked for the pas
sage of these laws, and have pledged
ourselves to labor for their enforce
ment, and shall endeavor by every
means in our power to give such aid to
teachers in their work, and the school
officers in their supervision, as shall
secure the best teaching of this subject
for the salvation of the children and
the glory of God. Mrs. Mary II. Hunt.

STOP DRINKINGI

A Way by Which Laboring Men May In
crease Their Wages and Ease Themselves
ola Burden Which They Now Garry for
Capitalists.
There are thirty-two saloons in the
city of Moline, Ill.,, and they pay to
the city a license of five hundred and
ten dollars per annum, aggregating
sixteen thousand three hundred and
twenty dollars. The money is used to
defray municipal expenses, and it takes
from real estate and personal property
a tax of just that amount, which, were
it not for the saloons, would have to
be paid by the property owners. Now,
who pays this special taxP The saloon
keepers, primarily, but ultimately the
patrons of the saloons And who are
the patrons of the saloonsP Laboring
men, men in most cases without homo
or property. Now, what howl would
be raised if the city of Moline should
say 1--WE will compel the laboring men
to pay special tax of sixteen thousand
three hundred and twenty dollars in
order to lessen the taxes of the cap
italists." Of course if the saloon priv
ileges were taken away they would be
the gamers in paying even this special
tax, for now they have to pay in addi-
ton, for the support of thirty two FAM
lies and the profits of the thirty-two
men engaged in the saloon business.
VIII Labor continue to take the bur-
den from Capital by paying its taxesP
This is a question that should be care
fully pondered. Laboring men are
not obliged to pay this tax; they do it
voluntarily. In getting this benefit
from Labor, Capital is not responsible.
The sons of toll reduce their oWn wages
and they do it by their own volition. If
they don't feel like relieving Capital of
the burden of taxation, there is q SIM
pie and easy remedy-stop drinking!
Stop drinking and get one advantage
of Capital that no power on earth can
take from you, for no one can compel
you to pay the tax on drink if you never
take liquor to your lips Western

TEMPERANCE ITEMS.

The most shocking scandals that we
have to deplore spring from Intemper-
ance.-PaStOraL Letter Of the PLel1ary
Council Of Baltimore.
THE Temperance people of Russia
petitioned the Emperor, two years ago,
for permission to hold meetings, and
have only just received his consent.
THE Grand Lodge of Masons of Ken
lucky declared recently that saloon
keeping was an offense against the
order, and should be punished as such.
A NEwLY-FoRMED church among the
Zulus has the following among its reg
ulations: mo member shall he per-
mitted to drink the white mans grog
or native beer, nor to touch it with his
lips"
LIQUoR-sALOoNs in North Carolina,
where workmcn wasted their money,
are being converted into factories,
where they can make money. The
largest saloon in Raleigh is now a shoe
mandatory, em@loying as many men
as all the saloons in the city did; an
other has been turned into furniture
factory.
We are not hard-hearted, but we feel
no sorrow at the news that three whole
sale liquor-stores in Baltimore have re-
Gently failed, and all the distilleries in
Washington County, Md, have been
compelled to stop. As this is owing to
the spread of Temperance principles
there. it is probable that the same
cause will produce the same desirable
results everywhere. ILLUSTRATED Chris
tiaae Weekly.
REMEMBER once reading fable to
this effect: Once there was lying by
the side of the ditch, pig. On the
other side lay a man. The pig was
sober, the man was drunk. The pig
had a ring in his nose, the man had a
ring on his finger. Some one passing,
exclaimed so that the pig heard it:
lone is judged from the company he
keeps" Instantly the pig rose and
vert away.-Ihe Foundation Of Death.

A GOOD SUGGESTION.

A Sidney (Australia) Newspaper Would
Like to See the Temperance People of
Great Britain, Canada and America
Gathered With Her Own People to Dis
euss the Question of the Nineteenth
Century.
The suggestion has been made by
the Social Reformer of Sidney, Austria
liza, that national conference of Tenn
perance workers be held during the
centenary of New South Wales next
year QSSO. 1t says: "Our Govern
mentpropose great centenary jubilee,
and offer one of the strongest bills of
fare ever submitted to people wh1
only laugh at the folly of their rulers.
But might not we. as Temperance
men, make some arrangements worthy
of our great work. If we were to Sc
lect the one question of the present age
that IS occupying the largest amount
of attention in the civilized world, it
would be the drink traffic. This is adj
mltted to be the greatest evil of the
nineteenth century. Let us abstainers
then call the heads of our various So
cieties together and see if we can not
arrange a national Temperance con-
ference and show that if Gas the Bulle-
tin says) there is to be a fifteen-days'
drunk there will be one assembly at
least where men will not only be sober,
but employed in considering the best
means of inducing others to become so.
This is a matter well worthy of the
consideration of the Temperance lead
ers. And with a conference, what an
admirable opportunity of discussing
fully the question of legislative restric-
ton, having, as we may reasonably
expect, men from not only the Mother
Country, but also from all the States
of America and Canada, men who have
beheld the effect of restrictive Legisla-
ture in all its various phases and under
every variety of circumstances. Let our
rulers be guilty of folly if they will,
but let us if possible utilize so great an
event in the history of Australia, and
use a great national gathering for a
great national purpose.
