now ON the field.
A few days since we visited the At

ney, Cape Breton Island, where nluy
thousands OF tslegraphic messages pass
over the wires stud under the sea each
day. Ar. William Edward Earle, VINO
was ia Charge, d telegraph man Of
thirty years experience, showed us
about the place lie is himself CAPT
tai illustration Of what We have here
claimed. Ills sEin is OF exceeding lime
ness his keen blue eyes LOOK like uqui-
lied electricity; his movements are AS
alert as leopard's.
That's Berlin. f" he said, listening 60
one of Che operators; that's London;
that's New York" IN the midst oil 90
metallic jargon that would have set %
nervous person wild. "fIers is Wheat
stones automatic traRsmittur; there
is the Western Cnion Standard quad
ruples (EJison's); we send four mes
sdges now upon one wire at the same
time, and could send almost any mum

of mechanical CJuLTIVances to different
systems OF notation Here is the aut-
OInatic repeater here the new method
of insulatiOni here are eleven hundred
cells. constituting our nattcry; here
are the ends OF tho cables that start
from Hearts CoutenL"
Thus he vent on,malzinR as plain to
us as language ana illustration could
TO the uniniJiateu, the modern miracle.
/ In one minute we can send Ines
sage To, and receive an answer from
London" he said; eve could do it in
less time; indeed. the electric part is
done in no time, but You see in New
Y Orl, a mans braiu-battery must
grasp and his hand must transmit the
message; then here IL Sydney another
man must repeat it (but ge are apt to
begin on the first word OF the answer
almost before we have transmitted rHe
last word OF the messaRe): then at
Hearts content, Newfoundland. a
third man takes and gives il; then at
Valencia BHy, Ireland and ther iAI
london. But for this rePostu0u. the
question and answer would be
exchanged across i've thousand miles
in, practically. no time ut ALTAR more
rapidly chan human lips could utter it. |
We are only 10 the dawn Of the electric
era, but we have gone SO far already
that we done know where we are, can
wonder at nothing" And now comes
in our temperance application
"Sir. Earle" we said. looking upon
the army of young men who were
keeping up this fusilade 10y which dis /
lance is demolished, "now is it about I
alcoholic stimulation ?"
Swift anC staccato cams the answer. |
% Sot at all; we must nave the brain
at its Clearest, the hand at its best /
We can't afford to have young men
that drink"
lie went on TO say that ne believed /
the temperance workers could hardly /
Oyerestimate the value to the total
abstinence cause of the multiplying /
modern inventions that put such a I
splendid premium upon teetotalism. /
And he WAS right: the. slow Iif5 OF /
civilizations tidal wave is with us 4
It is always better farther on. Even 4
as the farmers crops grow most while 1
he Is sleeping, so ten thousand forces /
are perpeLuauy &C work in this great .
laboratory OF the world. TO move for
ward the white car OF temperance
reform. We who give our whole lives .
to the movement are hardly more than /
straws that show which way the wind I
is blowing.
And best OF aII that blessed principle.
the correlation OF forces. makes IL
certain that personal total abstinence
means prohibition law and prohibition
politics; the man who doesn't drink
IS glad TO help vote cut the dram shop. /
and has as a rule come 70 the clearer
vision that since women are. as a class.
total abstainers- their votes can as q
rule be counted on TO help pat the
liquor traffic under ban Of law.
Let US then rejoice and take courage
the electric light fights against the
