Danish Evil and Hold Fast to That

A great deal of unhappiness is
caused by people who pry into the af-
fairs of others and who maliciously re-
peat and enlarge upon little scraps of
information they receive concerning
the private affairs of friends and neigh
bors. These people are particularly for
midable because their mode of speech
bears the stamp of sincerity. They
usually approach the subject in a hesi-
tating, round about way, as if 10th to
give expression to words that can hard
ly fail to injure the character of those

less, it is not part of their policy to
give the maligned party the shadow of
chance to trace the unfriendly and
ofttimes vicious accusations that are
so blighting in their effect upon sen.
sitive nature.

words that fall from the lips of tale
bearers and mischief makers, whose
chief aim in life seems desire to cre-
ate confusion and unhappiness. "They
say it is sO,' and ''there is no doubt
the story being true" are favOrite
forms of expression.
We cannot fail to accomplish great
deal of good if we refrain from repeat
ing rumors that are calculated to in
jure the reputation of a relative, friend
or neighbOr We all know how easy it
is to add a few words to story, and
we also probably know that it is very
hard to efface the blot caused by un-
charitable Misrepresentation. People
who possess charitable disposition are
rarely influenced by reports concerning
the wrong doing Of others. They do
not proclaim their virtues and their
friendships from the house tops, but
with quiet mien and earnestness of pur-
pose they quickly begin to counteract
the evils that follow in the wake of
the misunderstanding fraternity.
Life is short, and friendship very
precious, so let us resolve to Danish evil
and hold fast to that which is good.
Let us endeavor to cultivate the chris
tian charity that will enable us to bear
with the shortcomings of others and
give to them in this hour of need the
friendly sympathy which is so precious

NATURAL LIBERTY AND CIVIL RE-
STRAINTS
Civil Liberty the Social Liberty of Man
kind.

Natural liberty, is freedom from all
external restraints in the doing of that
which mans will inclines him to do.
His body is free, or at liberty when not
confined. The will or mind is free
when not checked or controlled. Natu-
raj liberty consists in the power of act
ing as one sees fit, without any restraint
or control, except from the laws of ma
ture. 1t is state of exemption from
all control, and from all positive laws,
and the institutions of social life.
1t is very plain to be seen, that for
man to enjoy this kind of liberty, he
must be alone in the world. But man
was not created as free moral agent,
| but he was created as social being.
Hence, it becomes necessary that he
submit to the restraints of society.
Therefore natural liberty, is abridged
by the establishment of government.
1t is for this reason that we talk about
civil governments, civil laws and civil
liberty In the fallen condition of man
civil governments and laws are neces-
sary. If it were not for these, anarchy
would prevail, and the world would be
filled with blood and destruction.
1t follows therefore, that civil liberty
is the liberty of men in state of socie-
ty. And this of itself is natural liberty,
so far only abridged and restrained, as
is necessary and expedient for the safe
ty and interest of the society, state or
| nation. And when this restraint of
natural liberty goes so far as to go be-
yond that which is expedient for the
public good, it is tyranny and becomes
unjust oppression. Civil liberty is not
only natural liberty with certain neces
sary restrictions in a state of society,
but it is positive exemption from the
arbitrary will of others. This restraint
from the exercise of natural freedom,
and the exemption from the arbitrary
: will of others, are secured by civil laws,
which are designed to restrain every
man from injuring or controlling an
other. And so it is that the restraints
of law are essential to the enjoyment
= of civil liberty. And the law is made
!. for the lawless and the disobedient
But every man who will remember the
words of Mr.. Herbert Spencer, that
! ''every man has the right to do whatso
e ever he wills, provided that in the do
= ing thereof, he infringes not the equal
. right of any other man." will never
need the restraints of law. In reality
Il this is only another way of expressing
d the golden rule:" Cali things whatso
e ever ye would that men should do tt
you, do ye even so to them" In obedi
l. ence to these principles, the worl(
would be full of happiness instead o.
20 misery as it is now.-H. F. Phelps.

CAN PROHIBITION BE MADE GEN.
ERAL?

Make the Saloon Keeper Accessory to
any and all Offences Committed Under
the Baneful Influences of Intoxicants
No question, perhaps, so near to the
heart, so VITAL has received more con-
sideration during the past half CEN
tury, from all classes of people, re-
gardless of creed or nationality, than
how to control, or entirely prohibit the
use, or abuse of intOxicants. In lis
tening to some of the most eloquent
speakers in the temperance field, or the
prohibition movement, we find that
almost invariably, the tendency has
been to show the great sin of intem-
perance and its consequent punish
ment hereafter, in the world beyond;
but does not show some method, or law
sufficiently strong to make it extremely
hazardous to either drink or sell liquor.
When we consider calmly what curse
it is, and ever has been, the misery,
crime and degradation that inevitably
follows it's use, we can no longer call

it should receive the same punishment
meted out to any other crime com
mitted against nature or our fellow
man. To successfully fight alcohol
nothing less than the most radical and
powerful means must be employed.
Prohibition has proven a failure
simply because it has been all one sided
it has attempted to prevent the sal'
and manufacture, and not by equally
as stringent laws, the use of intoxicat
ing liquor. True, much has been dom
to reclaim man from a moral stand
point, by appealing to his nature, hi
love of family, his honor, and his low
of God. To great many this has
happily, been the greatest blessing
But how many there are who seem t.
possess one feeling, no love of family
nor a belief in God, who cannot b
reached in this way? The only wa

his precious life in prison, through the
direct influence of liquor? You will
often hear the saloon keeper say, ''oh it
is the selfshness of few religious
cranks, or temperance fanatics who
cry so loud against our calling, no one
else.' 1 say, go to the prisons of our
country today and ask the inmates
there who is selfish, (the census of 1890,
places the population of our prisons
and reformatories at the enormous
figure of 52,89O) and | venture to as
