Newspaper Talk on the Liquor Traffic.

London Times: There is no way
so rapid to increase the wealth of ma
tions and the morality of society as to
annihilate the manufacture of ardent
spirits, consisting, as they do, of an in
finite waste, AL unmixed evil.
New York Tribune: The liquor
traffic is to-day the heaviest clog up
on progress and the deepest disgrace
of the nineteenth century.
London Telegraph: It is not pow
erty, it is beer, that has robbed the
children OF knowledge, liberty, moral
ity and long life. It is not poverty
that fills our hospitals and jails; it is
gin. By the time that child can use
his hands and earn IS pence week,
it is offered upon the altar of the great
gin god.
New York Witness: This is the
struggle for life and death in which
there is no neutral ground. Every
man and woman must be either for, or
against, the great enemy of all right
eousness, the traffic in intoxicating
drinks.
India Wachman: The saloon is
net laid to catch your unwary soul; it
leads to the castle of giant despair, out
of which you will never come again in
to the sweet sunlight. God is looking
down from heaven; your soul is hang
ing in the balance. For the sake of
the dear ones you will ruin, the life
you will blast, the heaven you will
losc-do not go in.
Chicago Inter-Ocean: A single case
of hydrophobia will stir the authori-
ties up to kill every unmuzzled dog on
the streets. But delirium tremens will
kill scores of men in brown stone
fronts and huts of poverty, and the
same authorities will hold inquests
and sigh over the mysterious ways of
Providence.
Westminster Review: Drunkenness
is the curse of England, a curse so
great that it far eclipses any other ca
lamity under which we suffer. It is
impossible to exaggerate the evils of
drunkenness.
Boston Herald: This may seem a
small matter. but public opinion is
made up of small matters, and so long
as public opinion sanctions the custom
Of shrinking, the custom of drinking
will continue.
Toledo Blade: Rum ruins health
destroys talent, fosters idleness and
vice, and there is no tangible good re-
sulting from it. The man who spends
his money for rum would be better off
if he got absolutely nothing in return
for his cash, than the internal swill
which he pours down his throat to in
ebriate him.
Washington Gazette: Alcoholic
drinks destroys the peace and happi-
ness of tens of thousands of families,
and cause many thousands of muir
ders,
The Anvil: If you want man to
do mean thing ply him with liquor.
St. Louis Globe Democrat: There
is tremendous popular force at work,
which is making rapid headway, and
if matters go on as they are now 60
ing, the United States will be, in time,
virtually Prohibition nation,

CHARLIE IL, NEWTON,

Little Charles hands are folded
Ger a bosom cold and white,
And the little voice is silent
Silent as the dc pths Of night
And throughout our hearts are fitting
Shadows dark and strangely deep
But our Charlie is not dying,
He has only fell asleep.
Fell asleep on earth to waken
BY Gods pearl and star gemmed throne.
Fell asleep to waAe with angels
In yon pure and holy home.
And, although our hearts are aching,
For our darling-let US rest,
Remembering whom God chastiseth,
He In wisdom loves the best.
And though clouds are dark above US
And no light breaks through the gloom
Still the stars are shining yOnder.
Shining close by Charities home,
And his pure white soul will lead US
Up the shining altar stairs
Which are hidden from our vision
BY the anguish Of our tears
We will not weep for God hath taken
That which always was his own.
He was only lent from Heaven
To perfect an earthly home.
And we have not lost our darling,
He is only gone before,
And Is waiting over yonder,
Waiting on the golden shore,
Where the surges roll no more.

Todd Co. Argus: It seems that in
these days we, as people, are falling
into a habit of expecting too much of
legislation. The numerous laws which
now cucumber our statute books that
are practically useless because they
are not put in force show that without
sufficient force of public sentiment be-
hind to carry them into effect, it is
useless to waste time in making laws.
The laws regulating the sale of intox-
Ieating liquor is an example. The
people as whole are the guardians
cfthe law and until each man does
his duty in seeing them enforced he
should hold his peace. At least he
should net blame the law makers, but
direct his energies toward forming So
cieties for educating the public senti-
ment in the enforcing of the laws we
have.

Gen. Early and Maj. Lacey, C.S. A.,
are quarreling in the Virginia papers,
and some hopes are held out that they
will shortly take the duel field and
perforate each other. If about two
thirds of the Confederate brigadiers
and "majahs" could be induced to un-
load their noisy animosities upon each
other, the South would be materially
improved as a place of residence.

Fargo experienced disastrous wind
storm last Monday night. The most
terrible result of the tornado was the
killing of seven children of the late
Capt, Mccarthy, who, with their moth
er, took refuge in coal cellar, and the
house was blown in upon them. All
the children were killed and Mrs. Nc
Carthy had an arm and leg broken
and received SO many other injuries
that it is impossible for her to recover.
A whole freight train was blown off
the track near Moorhead and pass
enger train was derailed north of Far
go. Several large buildings were I'M
rooted, and much other damage of a
similar nature is reported.

The disability pension bill which
has now become law provides for a
pension for all honorably discharged
soldiers who are now or may hereafter
become disabled from earning live
lihood, their dependent widows, par

estimate that under it, three hundred
thousand names will be put on the

forty to fifty millions in addition to
the present expenditure. Senator Da-

Canadian pirates who are taking seals

will be recaptured by the British feet

Blaine will have to draw on his nerve
