Temperance the World Over.

Those who have watched the temper
ance agitation as it is conducted in the
various civilized countries have observed
the remarkable tendency everywhere to
make the manufacture aud selling Of
liquor government monopoly, thus
putting both quantity and the quality
under government control. Our readers
are familiar with the Scandinavian sys-
tenn, in vogue moro or less through
towns of Sweden and Norway, where
the city authorities appoint a respecta-
bic citizen to sell Intoxicating drinks.
He is salaried city official, like a
street cleaning commissioner. There
can be no private gain to tho seller, and
it is not to his interest to enlarge the
consumption of alcohol. What profit
there is in the business goes into the
city treasury. This system was adopted
in Sweden and Norway under the local
option method.
Most notable of all, however, is the
Russian movement toward government
control of liquor selling. There the
edict has gone forth that saloon keeping
as private business shall be abolished
altogether. The curse of Russia hitherto
has been drunkenness. The village sa-
loon keeper has pandered to and inflam-
ed by all means in his power the ma
tional appetite for drink till the Russian
peasant, the most thriftless creature on
the face of the earth, has become mort.
gagged body and bones to him. Next
July the sale and manufacture of liquor
will be taken in charge by the imperial
government in seven provinces of Rus
STA. Tie change will be gradually made
in other provinces, until by Jan. I,
1898, there will not be private saloon
keeper in all the holy Russian empire
The ear takes this measure to protect
his Subjects
In France the temperance measure is
less sweeping, the government mOnOpo-
lizing only the manufacture and sale of
the stronger alcoholic drinks, leaving
beer and the lighter wines to be made
and sold by private individuals, as at
present. The French cabinet itself is
back Of the temperance movement, ev-
cry member Of that cabinet being, it is
said, total abstainer.
While Belgium has not yet assumed
the monopoly of the manufacture and
sale Of liquors, a government commits

the evils Of intemperance in the nation,
with a view to future legislation. In a
majority of the American states the tenn
perance question is one Of the burning
ones, with a tendency toward local op-

HOW PREVENT GROUP.

SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE
INTERESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS.
HOW TO GUARD AGAINST THE DISEASE.
Group is terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,
first symptoms and treatment is the
object of this item. The origin of
Group is a common cold. Children who
are subject to it take cold very easily
and Group is almost sure to follow.
The first symptom is hoarseness; this
is soon followed by d peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized and
will never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely
given all tendency to Group will soon
disappear. Even after the croupy
cough has developed it will prevent
the attack. There is no danger in
giving this remedy for it contains
nothing injurious. For sale by G.. A.

BANKING IN KANSAS
Mr. Fu'ler's Lecture Delights and Entertains
Fine Audience.

A inner or more appreciatiye audience
never assembled in Augusta than that
which listened to the lecture of W. O. Full
Ter, Jr., at the Methodist church. last
evening upon the subject of Banking in
Kansas. /" Among those present were
Governor Cleaves President Seiders of the
Senate, Speaker Powers of the House.
Judge A. P. Wiswell and wife, Hon
>. ID. Manley and wife, Judge W.
+. Whitehouse, Attorney General Powers.
Judge 0. G. Hall, Col. d. A. Robinson. a
number of the members of the Senate and
House and many of the prominent eiti-
zens OF Augusta. 1t is safe to say tina.
all felt repaid for attending.
Mr.. Fullers lecture is gem. We have
never listened to speaker who held the
attention of his audience any closer, nor
have we ever heard a lecture stronger
in the qualities of entertainment.
Mr.. Fullcr's humor is sponta-
neous 1t draws its inspiration from a
Keen observation of life, and its effective
ness lies in the absolute truth of the pic
lures it presents and the philosophy it
deduces. But it would do Mr.. Fuller an
injustice to class his lecture as purely
humorous effort, rich as it is in this
quality. 1t abounds in sound common
sense, in beautiful word pictures, and in
fine passages, that emphasize how strongly
genuine humor is linked with pathos.
This was brought out very clearly in
Mr.. Fuller's magnificent tribute--for it
was nothing lcss--to the wives of the
pioneers whose unremitting toll has been
so large--though often an unrecognizcd
factor-in developing the powerful states
of the great West. This stirring word
picture was specially effective following
as it did, quantity humorous description
of visit to typical Kansas farm home,
and the conditions under which its labors
were performed.
We regret that we cannot give to this
lecture the space we should like to. 1t is
original, instructive, interesting, and
entertaining in a marked degree. We
venture the prediction that its author
will find appreciative audiences for it far
outside the limits of the Pine Tree State,
where it has been deservedly popular.
Mr.. Fuller has delivered this lecture
twice in our city, and if he comes again
he will not fail to be given cordial re
ception.

Mistaken Charity.

Editors Of the Kennebec journal:
At town election in Win5crport, pc
culiar case of 50 called Ghartytg) was
shown, resulting in the defeat of the Re
publican candidate for clerk. The can
didate had served the town several years,
as clerk, faithfully and well, he was q
man whom all highly respected as citi-
zen, and business man and a man high
" qualified for the position as his repeated
maiorities in the past must indicate.
The Democrats had a candidate who
was claimed to deserve the office in
charitable way at least which argument
on the spur of the moment caused several
Republicans to unite in the election oil
their opponents candidate.
Those persons intended to do no harm,
undoubtedly, but after mature considera-
ton of what was done, will admit that the
act must cost us dearly, for sooner OF
later the services of our candidate for
other positions of trust, will again be de
sired when we shall find he is defeated FOL
the last time. In other words, our can
didate will, undoubtedly, tell us himself,
THAT he don't need the office, y and will
not take it. Can any man, even the sue
cessful candidate regard that action char
ty. We think, no.

The Abuse Of Rights.

Editors of Kennebec Journal:
The Arena for February contains IAN
open letter to John Sherman, followed
by another in March to Secretary Carlisle,
which, as a combination of the ridiculous
and libellous, have seldom seen equalled
MY surprise and regret that publication
of such high standing should permit such
articles to appear in its columns, grows
more keen. as / reflect upon the possible
future policy of the magazine. II it be
argued that the communications were
signed, and that therefore the editor
assumed no responsibility for, and gave
no sanction to, their utterances, 1t cannot
be denied that the very fact of their pres
ence in these columns gave them quasi
support 1t gave this writer opportunities
of which he is not worthy, and thrust
upon intelligent readers the rawlings of an
apparent mailman.
1t is absurd to think of applying the
same criticisms to Hon. John Sherman
and to the honorable secretary of the treas
ury, because of their action relative to
our monetary standard.
john Sherman contributed, in great
measure, to the enactment of the laws re-
lating thereto. He makes no apology for
his action. The rantings of insane critics
do not disturb him.
Mr. Carlisle, as secretary OF the treas
ury, has simply executed those laws, and
for so doing he is entitled to neither CEN
sure nor commentator. His individual
action has never been in harmony with
that of Mr.. Sherman.
1t is supremacy ridiculous, therefore, to
chastise them both in the same breath; for
surely no sane man will for moment
claim that they occupy similar positions.
applaud Mr.. Sherman for his course,
lin the main, it is therefore impossible
for me to commend Mr.. Carlisle for his.
MI Sherman may be wrong 81 Mr.. Car
Isle may be right but surely they are not
both right; for they are not more alike, as
they appear to my POSSIBLY defective) Wis
ion than cheese is like to chalk.
1t is not my purpose to discuss the Iros
and cons of their positions. They have
radically differed. and both are undoubt-
edly honest in their beliefs. They are en-
titled to respectful treatment at the hands
of every citizen.
MY chief purpose is to express my re
greet that any publication that appeals to
the intelligence of our people, that expects
to find it's patrons among the respectable
and thoughtful readers, should allow the
freedom of its columns for such scurril-
Gus, libellous, indecent attacks.
Public men and public measures must
be discussed; but he who descends to the
slime of the gutter he who attacks our
public officials with the bludgeon Of the
blatherskite, should be relegated to the
realms of yellow covered literature and
blood and thunder composition.

Another young woman has fallen a
victim to the homicidal imbecile with
revolver and love affair." William
Rinck, plumber residing at Chicago,
shot and almost instantly killed his
stepsister, Alma Won Claim. 1t ap-
pears that Rinck, who was in love with
the girl, fourished a revolver in the
presence of his mother and other mem
bers of the family and threatened to
shoot his victim long before he actually
fired the fatal shot. The girl appealed
to her mother and to bystanders for
protection, but no one interfered. Final
~ after long melodramatic dress re-
hearsal he murdered his step-sister in
cold blood and gave himself up to the
police. This tragedy ought to have been
prevented. The awful result is due en-
tirely to delay. If somebody had grab
bed chair and knocked that murder.
GUS chump into the middle of next week
Just as soon as he began to flourish
his revolver and threaten to murder
defenselesS woman the ends of Justice
would have been served. II in doing
so Rinck had been killed it would have
been very little loss. The time to sup
press the homicidal idiot is before he
commits murder, not afterward Don't
wait. No man with brains resorts to
a revolver if he is in his right mind. If
any man does it go for him.

Orchard Grass a Laster.

1t is frequent remark OF farmers
that where orchard grass has once been
sown on a farm the land is never after
entirely free from it. Yet this grass
is very far from being a weed, and is
easily killed when plowed. It's per-
sistency comes from the fact that it's
seeds scatter easily, and that they re-
tain their vitality long time when
covered too deeply. In this they are
like the clovers, both red and white
Each of these will appear on land where
no seed has been soWn for years if the
plant has ever been allowed to mature
seed. It is an advantage to have or
chard grass so persistent in remaining
in the soil. Where it grows it is valua-
bic plant III a place where without it
there would be a vacant place.

Hospitality is one of the best vir-
tues-hospitality in its best sense not
a display, not an effort to appear better
than ones Helghbors. Have no struggle
to do what you cannot Go we'll, but. III
accordance with your means of living,
welcome your'friends to your table and
to your fireside. The better fare you
can give them justly the pleasanter for
you and for them; but, above all, let
there be a warm welcome to whatever
you can command. A cheerful fire is a
welcome in itself.
