THE DISCUSSION of the cure for drunken

rrsr D1scussIoN of the cure for drunken
ness. revived In the September plumber OF
the North american Revieso by four dis
tinguishsd physicians, has been taken up
pretty generally By the press throughout the
country. But there never was more SIM
ple question. Drunkenness Is nota disease;
Ills a crime, and Injuries not only the criminal,
but his friends and the community In which
he lives. There never was criminal who
couldn't reform II he desired to do 60. nor
drunkard who couldn'6 do likewise. 1t ID
true that 8 man getting over debaucn or
spree" must have liquor, and many one
In such condition has died from the refusal
of unwiae friends to give him drink; but
unless In that condition, there Ia no man
who cannot refrain from the use Of liquor Ii
such be his desire. The dread OF punish
ment is the best preventive of crime. and II
drunkenness were made criminal ottense
there would be no occasion for anti-liquor
laws. No matter how much man may love
whisky, he wont drink 1t II he knows drop
of croton oil! has been put In 1t, nor will be
drink enough to make him drunk II he
knows that he will be publicly punished Tor
his drunkenness.

Can't Secure His Wife

W-1bKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. 13.-Charles
McVittie, a we'll known young nan of
Guilford, N. Y, just across the Penn.
~sylvania line, and a young lady named
Miss Eggleston were united in marriage
secretly. against the wishes of the for
mer's parents, several months ago. A
warrant charging him with being q lu-
natic was issued, and after an examina-
ton he was committed to the Bing-
hampton state hospital. To visitors he
exhibited no symptoms of insanity, and
secretly effected an escape from the in
stitutjon, returning to Guilford in
search of his bride. An effort was atonce
made to capture him, and he was ar
rested yesterday by Sheriff Kinney near
his old homeA In an interview McVittie
said his escape was effected from the
hospital by aid of a metal spoon, with
which he u~nfastened the screws of a
window, letting himself down to the
yard and quietly walked away. Reach
ing Wilkesbarre he obtained several
small jobs and succeeded in earning a
living. Becoming anxious to g his
bride, he started for Guilford. Arriv-
ing at his wife's home, her parents at
once discovered him and caused his
arrest. Friends will begin legal pro.
ceedings in his favor and hope to secure
his liberation. When arrested he made
no resistance, simply saying he would
prefer the county Jail to the state hos.
pital.

Another Farmers Elevator.

WEST SUPERIOR, Oct. 11.-Following
the suggestion of the North Dakota
business men and farmers, the Mime
sofa Farmers Alliance has decided to
build q 1000, 600 bushel elevator at this
place, commencing this fall, having it
ready for next seasons crop. The cap
ital stock, 800, 900, is to be divided into
shares of $40 each. A committee ap-
pointed by the Grain Growers Associa-
ton is now here, it is claimed, to select
a site.
The committee on site is headed by
Senator Probstfield, and Charles Can
ming and Eric Olson are members. The
committee is not authorized to select a
site. but is instructed to report at the
next meeting of the board of directors
of the Grain Growers Association, which
will be held at the call of the president.
Should the committee make q favorable
report the directors will probably organ
ize and begin taking subscriptions to
stock at once, with q view to completing
the elevator as soon al possible.
