TEMPERANCE ALLIES.
The Reform Work Accomplished by the
Forces of Steam and Electricity.

The Reform Work Accomplished by the
Forces of Steam and Electricity.
In an article in the Statesman on
Forces Which Make for Temperance"
Stoughton Cooley emphasizes the point
that the complexity of modern life,
rendering the members of socisty so de-
pendent on one another. is itself insur-
ing the prevalence of habits of Temper
ance. He instances the obligation upon
railroad men to let liquor alone, and
then goes on to say:
''The same law which bears upon the
train men is rapidly being brought to
bear upon all men throughout society.
In primitive state, where each family
is practically independent of the others,
the conduct of the individual is not o
matter of communal concern. He may
spend as much of his life in besotted
state as he likes, if he does not inter-
fere with his neighbors. But it nat
urally follows that when society has
reached such complex state as ours
there are very few opportunities for
drunkenness when the rights Of others
are not abridged. In the good old
days. a mechanic might attempt to la
Dor when under the influence of alcohol
without serious consequences, but such
man in q modern machine shop or fac
tory would very soon make trouble for
himself or somebody else. Steam and
electricity are most faithful servan is
when under intelligent direction; but
no horse is more ready to take advantage
of an ignorant driver, no slave quicker
to cheat a careless master, than these to
bring confusion upon incompetent di.

Of its opportunities, but it is never so Of

magician who has called from the

which are faithful only so long as his
watchful eye is upon them. The forces
which have in the past century been
called into being by mans genius will
not obey children nor fools, nor men

alcohol; they bow only to the clear

adds another to the long list Of medical
testimony against the use Of beer
William E. Lewis, Wisconsin State
secretary of the Young Mems Christian
Association, gave us some testimony on
the relative resisting powers Of beer
drinker and Temperance man. He
belonged to Company F, Of the Thirty
Seventh Massachusetts Volunteers in
the civil war. He belonged to squad
of four called "the model squad" be-
cause they did not use liquor, tobacco
or profanity. In the battle of the
Wilderness the Thirty-Seventh was
ordered to charge the advancing line Of
the enemy. In the charge three of their
squad were struck-one, John Dunbar,
was fatally wounded; another, Joe
Foster, got bullet through his arm
above the elbow that shattered the
bone, passed through and tore sren his
side, exposing his vitals and carrying
away part OF two ribs. Mr.. Lewis
had bullet through the knee. Foster
lay for five days without care, and
when found at last cupful Of maggots
was taken from the wound in his side.
The bone had to be removed from his
arm for few inches above the elbow;
yet within five weeks from the day he
was shot he reported for duty.
Mr.. Lewis, like many others of the
twenty-five thousand wounded in that
awful battle, lay eight days without
any thing but water which wounded
companion brought in his canteen. Yet
no one seeing Mr.. Lewis to-day would
think that he was in delicate health.
There was another fellow in our reg
iment by the name Of Waite" said Mr..
Lewis. HE got the end of his little
finger shot off and it caused his death.
He was beer drinker, and it was the
state of his system caused by the beer
that carried him of. "-Northwestern

APPEAL FOR RELIEF.

kaasas Farmers Ask for Legislation for

Petitions have recently been circulat-
ed throughout Kansas requesting Gov
ernor Humphrey to convene the Kansas
Legislature in extra session for the pur-
pose of providing the people with GER
tain relief measures which can not we'll
be deferred until the regular session in
1891. The petitions make the request
for the reason that the railroad laws
be amended so that railways may
be scompeled to lower their rates of
freight transportation. The petitions
most numerously signed are those orig
mating with the Farmers Alliance, and
expressing the following reason:
WHEREAS, The shrinkage in values on
both real and personal property in the State
OF Kansas In the past two years has caused
very great financial embarrassment among
the farmers of our State, and in many in
stances the farmers have become unable, by
reason of these shrinkages, to prevent pro.
ceedings in foreclosures, which are increas.

1t is exceedingly doubtful that the

vicar-General Brady's Views.


Vicar-General Brady of the Chicago
diocese, on being interviewed in refer
ence to the above report, after acGuaint-
ing himself with its contents, said that
Bishop Fink's remarks were timely and
to the point. There is no doubt what
ever" he said, "that the Farmers AS
ISOLATION would be greatly strength
ened and their scope of usefulness ex-
tended if they would only drop their
rituals and chaplains. They are bust
ness organizations established for the
protection of farmers and the industry
they represent, and ! can not see the
necessity Of introducing religious
features. They are composed of
men representing all creeds and
denominations, and any ritual they
adopt can not satisfy all. In
this diocese, which includes the entire
eastern half of Missouri, the same ques-
ton arose some years ago. We were
then asked if Catholics could join the
Wheel and the Farmers Alliance. both
of which are represented in Southeast
Missouri. We then objected to the semi
religious character of the societies, and
we have yet to be given some good reason
for the necessity of having chaplains and
rituals in such an organization. They
are organized for business and should be
conducted on business instead Of re.
ligious basis. Let the Farmers Union
drop these features and devote theii
meetings to business so that Catholics
generally can conscientiously enter them
and by thus increasing the membership
extend the range of their usefulness.

Another View,

Suppose, now, that instead Of living
for all these centuries under system
of male suffrage, says Hon. John d.
Long, of Massachusetts, we had been
living under system exclusively of fe'
male suffrage. Suppose no man had
ever voted; suppose all this time that
women had had the exclusive right OF
suffrage; and suppose it should at last
dawn upon the men that they were de-
prived of both the election of their Cow
errors and the making Of the laws; and
suppose they should assert their right
to cast ballot, and suppose the women
having that right should use against
them exactly the arguments which they
to-day use against the women. Suppose
it should be said that the business Of a
man is to buy and sell, to run railroads,
to keep store, and engage in the out.
door transactions of life; that men are
not fitted for this matter of voting; that
their business is to supply bread and
butter for the family. How long do you
suppose they would stand any nonsense
of that kind? Can not you hear how
loud they would roar at you the truths
of the Declaration of Independence, that
all men are created free and equal, that
government derives its powers only from
the consent of the governed, and that to
exclude them was outrage, injustice and
barbarism-exactly all ~ is outrage, in
Justice and barbarism to exclude women
who have equal intelligence and an
equal interest at stake, from the exer-
else of suffrage in the election of their
rulers and in the making of their laws.

SUFFRAGE AS A BURDEN.
The Question of Politics Occupying Too
Much of WOman's Time.

The question OF Politics occupying TOO
Much of Woman's Time.
In an able address given at the annual
meeting of the Massachusetts, Woman
Suffrage Association, recently, Colonel
Albert Clarke answered the objection
that suffrage would unduly increase
women's burdens:
No fact in human progress is better
attested than that every industrial,
economic, and political improvement
displaces more hardships than it intro
duces. There are many things in wom-
ans life which are more burdensome
and less important than would be such
participation in the government as the
average man endures. All that intelli-
gent citizenship requires is such atten-
ton to public questions as women give
now almost in the same proportion as
men, especially when important cleo.
tions are pending.
Formerly there was somewhat
weighty argument against the descen,
of women into ''the dirty pool of poll.
tics" for often the hastings and the
polls were not inviting places. But this
was met by the reasonable claim that
woman's presence would improve them
and within the year past they have beer
immensely improved by the Australian
ballot system. In the school committed
elections in this State, and in othel
elections elsewhere, women have no
found it disagreeable at the polls.
1t begins to be obvious that, so far a
mere voting is concerned, women vii

Members of the Farmers and Labor
ers' Union, of Logan County, KY, have
organized a company to be known as the

pose of conducting the business of their

Office In town meetings, the legislative
business requires more time, but usually
not much more than matinee, u Chau-
tauqua circle, or high tea. Everyone
will admit, think, that If this is all,
the hardship will not be great enough
to justify longer withholding the priv
ilege.
But, say our friends Of the opposition,
it is not voting alone that will burden
women; it is giving general attention to
politics. Let us examine this little.
Women hear politics discussed, and they
read newspapers. In presidential. and Of
ten in other campaigns, they attend poll
tical meetings. In many cases they even
form political clubs. They understand
the issues as we'll as the men do, and
they take as much interest in the result.
Indeed, they pass through the campaign
side by side with their husbands and
brothers, and rejoice or condole with
them after tho election, not from SYM
pathy with them, but from interest in
the cause. have heard no one say that
this interest is unwomanly. The ex-
preston, Ladies cordially invited" is

think interest in politics would burden
women, has not your practice answered

Drink Your Soda Slowly.

Good soda should be slipped. Quickly
drinking off the effervescence, which is
merely foam, an interval Of minute or
two should be allowed before the last
half of the glass is taken. Clerks should
know this, and give customers time
without warning by looks or actions that
they are expected to leave in the shortest
possible order after boiling their soda
and paying for it. A glass of soda SO
taken is a refreshing stimulus, better
than food in very hot noon, but tossed
off as most people take it is recipe for
cramps or indigestion.
If it is poor soda, tasting Of metal with
the silver worn off, or standing in silver
too long, favored with sirups made from
oranges or lemons whose musty taste is
plain to all refined palates, the less one
takes the better for life and health
Girls who serve the cheap soda fountains
at fancy stores well know this from ex-
peTience, and the old hands rarely touch
soda themselves The girls behind the
counters who depend ON soda to keep up
their strength through the close days in
jure their digestion by it, and perhaps
owe more of their sudden indispositions
to it than they imagine.-Shirley Dare
