MIsAPPLIED PROHIBITION.
Where the Law Fails and Wherein 1t
Needs Amendment.
From the Christian Mirror.

From the Christian Mirror.]
The proposed bill published in last
weeks Mirror, has some reasons in its
favor which it's opposers or friends may
not properly weigh. Maine has put al
cohlic liquors under the ban of just law.
The prohibitory principle, however. ex-
cepts the sale for uses in medicine and
the arts. The law wisely allows all 9TH
er illegal and misdemeanor. The best
temperance sentiment of the times ev
erywhere demands the concession to
what is believed to be real require
ment-a beneficial use. Until physi-
clans and Psychologists shall change their
opinions and shall so teach and practice
as to change the now confident opinions
of a great portion of the people, we must
have alcoholic liquors.
In the actual working our prohibitory
law is grievously misused and misap
piled, and does in fact nearly or quite
prohibit what is demanded and intended.
1t permits sale for medicinal uses and
then allows that sale to be nearly or
wholly obstructed.
A large percentage of good people in
our State, who believe in the law and
heartily stand by it, even to their disad-
vantage, cannot purchase pint of alco-
hol for occasional replenishing of the
camphor bottle, or other uses, or obtain
gill of bran y or whiskey to keep for
emergencies, unless by illegal acts on the
part Of some one.

1t may seem to some people that the
bill now before the legislature to forbid
the leaving alone of children under II
years of age in any situation where they
are exposed to dangers from which they
are by their age incapacitated from
protecting themselves, is carrying the
paternal principle in legislation to an
absurd extent But is it any more alb
surd than that other measure which fix
es the time of sheep shearing? Are not
children entitled to as much protection
as sheep? In view, however. OF the
numerous accidents of late, why not
propose legislation SO as to punish men
and women who undertake to stimulate
the fire by pouring kerosene oil upon it
from the can?

THE r.. FERENDUM.*

knowledge of Swiss history with mort
of us is confined to the legend of Tell;
the doubtful story of Arnold Winkelried
and his embosomed clump of spears; one
of Walter Scotts later novels--Anne of
Geierstein--dealing with the defeat of
Charles the Bold and his death at Nancy;
and Byron's beautiful but misleading
Prison of Chillon, together with few
lines from Childe Harold,
Bya lone wall loneler column rears
grey and grief-worn aspect of old days.
We know in general way that Switzer-
land is an ancient federal republic with
form of government something like
our own; and that is nearly the extent OF
our knowledge. There is to be sure,
Zschokkes history, which has been done
into English; but nobody reads it. Be-
sides, great changes have taken place IN
the little Republic since 1922, when that
was written. So the work, The Rise OF
the Swiss Republic, by Mr.. W. D. Nc
Crackan, sometime American minister
to Switzerland, just issued by the Arena
Publishing Company, is welcome addi-
ton to the historical shelf of our libra
ries and-to use commonplace of the
advertising columns-''fills long-felt
want"
Though far from brilliant in style in
deed, often trite in it's phraseology
McCrackan's book is really a noteworthy
addition to our stock of historical
literature. The field it occupies has not
been covered before by any American arl-
thor (although Mr.. John Foster Kirke
describes one episode, and that import
ant and striking, in his Charles the Boldly
and offers much of interest and great
value to the general reader concerned, as
all Americans must be, in the fortunes
of federal government, as well as to the
historical student. Our author brings to
the consideration of his subject wide
knowledge, indefatigable industry, an
engaging manner of treatment, and what
perhaps, is quite as necessary to the sue
cess of his book, love for the land and
the people he pictures.
The work begins in remote times,
those of the Cave Dwellers, but Mr.. Nc
Crackan takes us, with long strides,
through all that, through the Roman oo-
cupation, the Frankish dominion, the
struggle with the houses of Savoy and
Hapsburg, down to the perpetual league
of the Forest Cantons, Schwiz. Uri and
Unterwalden in 1891. Thence he pro-
ceeds, in more leisurely fashion, down to
the present time. The story is that of
all confedefated states; of oscillation be-
tween the two extremes of complete CEN
tralization, which was the condition in
the time of the French Revolution and
under the so-called 'mediatorship'' of
Napoleon; and extreme decentralization
which has been the condition during
most of the many years of Swiss history.
