The personal liberty about which
so many liquor sellers are prating, is
simply the liberty Of doing as they
please, without any reference to the
effect it may have upon others. We
have shown that if all people insisted
upon this, that government would
be impossible and we should all be
savages, only anxious to crafty our
own desires, no matter at what ex-
pense to others. We have got to
choose between civilization and bar
barism, and if we choose the former,
we have given up so much of our per-
sonal liberty as interferes with it. If
we insist upon the rights of a savage,
we have no business in a civilized
community, for there the people have
given up their savage rights and &C
cepted in return the civil rights
which society guarantees to them.
That these rights are infinitely more
valuable than the right of doing
whatever a man pleases to do, is 80
evident that even simpleton can
understand it. The very coat on his
back, the shoes upon his feet, and
the civilized food which he eats are
the result of "civil liberty" If he
were a savage, he might find some
means of killing a wild animal and
eating its flesh, while he should
clothe himself with its hide; but he
would be one step removed from the
animals themselves upon which he
fed, and his very sleep would be dis
turbed by the fear that some wild
animal would, in return, desire tc
feed upon him, or that some wilder
men would consider it part of theil
personal liberty" to take his life and
his goods. This is personal liber
ty."

fno one learned to drink intoxi-
eating liquors, of course in one gener-
alton the business would die out of
itself. But since drinking people die
much more rapidly than other peo-
pie, the saloon customers would di-
minish very rapidly every year, and
the business would soon become I'M
profitable. When a young man of
twenty learns to drink, the chances
are that he will live only fifteen
years, while older people who be-
come drinkers are likely to live a
still shorter period.
Southern standard. (McMinnville, Tenn.) 1879-current, 1888-03-24

DR.. Day, for many years the super
intendent of the Washingtonian
Home in Boston, says: IA mistaken
idea prevails that the inebriate be-
comes and continues drunkard be-
cause he has no desire and makes no
effort to reform. No error can be
more complete. To shake off the
shackles of his slavery is the dream
by day and night of its unfortunate
victim; and how to accomplish it is
the question he most eagerly asks and
for whose answering he waits with
the most intense DESIRE"

BE- an actual fact. The people Of
Smithwicks are all praying for it any,

cuts all the bottom stock, except the
lifting. that IS used in the factory.
Well, you haven't got much time TO
LOOK around so we will sass on
sp eddy. This is a Beam sole cutter;
some factories use this exclusively, but
we simply use it Tor lift cutting. This
machine is stripper, used for strip
ping sole leather and counter stock, or
skirting, preparatory to fitting it into
small work. This knife, you see,
is four feet long. and will go through
an inch board instantly. 1t is one of
the most dangerous machines we have
in the factory-the foreman is about
the only one that uses 1.-THE is well in
sured. This is our sole leather
roller-it takes the place of the old
snob's lap iron. We can get pres
sure of about half ton on each piece
of leather that passes through. This is
q Stoves splitter and skiver. You see
it is necessary, when We take case of
shoes, to have the stock all one thick
ness, and every sole and insole Is put
through this uachine, which makes
them even and nice. instead of the old
fashioned way of whiting with a knife
"a boy can put through sixty pairs in
fifteen minutes. This is our sole
moulding machine. 1t moulds the sole
to the shape of last before going
to the sole layer to put the soles on.
This is our heel building outfit. These
boys simply build the heels, and then
they are simply placed Ill der this heel
press I'd pressed even, so that they
are all one thickness when ready to be
placed on the particular case of shoes
they are required for. This is trip
counter skiver and shank skiver, which
is necessary to complete and fit up all
bottom stock. This is a Hartford
rounding machine of recent invention
The stock, instead of being dyed
out. is simply stripped, aud an
ordinary iron pattern put on
the machine, and it rounds it in

neglect, and also a waste of steam. In
bis way ervthing can be kept clean,
which | think is very essential where
from 200 to 800 work people are EN-
ployed. This plumbing, as before men
toned, was done by Msssrs David
James d Co =, under the superlntend-
ercy of Schiuter and Moran There
are 100000 bricks and $4,000 feet of
lumber in the building according to
specifications. The whole structure
goes to show the solid character of the
SUPERINTENDENT in carrying out the
plans in every detail, and putting up a
building that will always be pride
of the west" and it also reflects great
credit on the directors and superinten-
deucy for the enterprise they mani
tested. Now, would like to take you
through. as, not being builder, this is
about all l can say in regard to the
building.
In showing you the ma ipulation
of our
BOOT nd SHOE MACHINERY,
we had better begin at the beginning.
The whole process can be seen at this
desk. You see the record book? Well,
every cese of boots and shoes made has
a number, which is stamped on the in
side of every boot or shoe-the descrip-
ton is made on this ticket. which passes
first to the cutting room. then to the
fitting room, after which it goes to the
sole leather room, bottoming room,
finishing room, freeing room and then
to the packing room. You will be
somewhat surprised, no doubt, at the
number of hands each shoe passes
through, which is thirty four. 1t is
impossible for pair of shoes to get
lost without our knowing, as each hand
is responsible for the case as 1t leaves
him, and this record is a copy of the
ticket, so if there is a pair missed, los,
or spoiled in any way, we can trace it.
