Liquor Legislation.

Two or three more Daniels, or Dog
berrys or fellows Of that sort, have re-
Gently come to the surface ont in Kan
sas and Iowa. and the good people Of
those States who supposed that they
had the liquor traffic closely bottled up
under prohibitory laws have suddenly
awoke to the fact that they have no
such laws. Prohibition has never had
a legal existence. Some one has in
trodueed into the Vermont legislature
a bill re-enacting all of our presentpro-
hibitory laws. But the fact is we have
no prohibitory laws. We never had
any such laws. We went through the
farce of making what we called prohib-
itory laws but inasmuch as they were
not legal they had no existence. Now
if the legislature goes Trough the form
of re-euacting what has never been en-
acted. what does it signify: The ques-
ton is sprung upon MS every little
while, does prohibition prohibit? The
truth OF the matter is that whatever
prohibiting there has been has resulted
in the absence Of prohibition. There
are two things to be considered in this
connection. In the first place we have
an illustration Of the power Of imagina-
tion. we will look at the matter as il
presents itself in our own State. The
legislators Of the last generation went
through the formula Of passing prohib-
itory laws. The people believed that
those laws existed and shaped their
conduct accordingly. Every year or
two new legislators have as they sup
posed added something to the law. A
new generation has grown up oyershad-
owed bv the same hallucination. Mod /
ern Faith healingis nowhere in the COM
parison with the influence Of this delu-
sion. Men have refrained from selling
rum and folded the garments Of self
righteousness about them upon the sup
position that they were obeying a law /
that was no law. Many man has
sold rum. lodged officers. Sneaked into
corners. sought to hush up his con-
science, and played all manner Of tricks
with his Judgment, thinking that be
was violating law that was no law.
MANY a man has abstained from taking
n drink and commended himself for not
getting drunk contrary to law when
the law was only the shadow Of an OBJ
struction in his path. Many man
has slid down into the ditch, has felt
remorse sitting heavy on his soul, has
hid away in holes and caverns to drink
where the eve Of man might not behold
him. to escape the penalty of law
that is no law and has no penalty. 1t
is remarkable what an immense amount
IF immoral indignation has been vast

they felt the hurt. But now that the
spell is spoken, and light has flashed a.
cross the country from the western ho-
rizon, we would like to ask as the Sec
ond thing to consider, what shall be
done in the case ofthose who have fall
en- as martyrs to the wiles Of the prohi-
bitionists! We regret the fate Of the
victims Of the Salem witchcraft delu-
sion, but the sum total Of their suffer-
ings was as nothing compared to the
suferings of men women and children
all over the State who wanted rum and
could not get it. Time fails us TO tell
of those whose cider barrels have been
smashed in, their pocket TASKS taken
away, their places of business closed
up, they themselves hailed before mag
istrates. their signs taken in, their front
doors shut, and their bodies hustled TO
Rutland to fill up measure of hard
work on account Of their iniquities. In
the centuries TO follow there viii be un-
told amusement and astonishment as
the strange dclusions Of this age are
studied as a part Of the history Of the
race. What and who shall compen-
safe these sufferers We ought to do
something for them. They'll not be
with Us a great while. In Kansas and
Iowa the people, or some Of them, ate
waking up to their opportunity. Dram
shops are opening on all sides. Those
who have suffered the pangs OF thirst,
and all other kinds Of abuse under this
gigantic prohibition fraud, can now en-
Joy their revenge and hurry on into
premature graves with nothing to mo-
lest or even scare them. Now that we
are so thoroughly undeceiyed in regard
to prohibition, it may be that some 9TH
er legal cob-webs will be swept away.
Some Judge in Kowboidmn will diseov-
er knot hole in our marriage laws,
and we shall be as though they had
never been. The whole country will
be unmarried at one fell swoop. We
shall discover that our children have
no legal existence, in fact that we are
not any of US anywhere so far as the
State is concerned. Some profound
judicial decision may take a wider range
than we have considered and loosen the |
entire fabric Of our civilization. We
shall wake up some fine morning and
find ourselves savages as il We're, on
the banks of some Congo, feeding our /
babies to the alligators. We are start /
inc ON course that renders us liable |
to lust such contingencies as these, and
we know Of no escape except by reduc-
ing the number Of judges in the wild
aud blooming West.
