Mrs. General Sumpter came down

The Gothenburg system

AS further addition to the chapter
on the Gothenburg system comes this
testimony from an acknowledged au-
thority on the subject, DIR. 7. T. Wal
denstrom, M. p, in letter to the
mission Friend" of Chicago: 81 may
mention that our statistical bureau has
lately surprised us by showing that the
consumption of strong spirituous liquors
has slowly but steadily increased since
1890. People have not believed this
to be so. If the always colossal con-
sumption of beer is added-undoubt
ly the consumption of wine is also on
the increase the prospects are not
very bright How this can be recon-
ciled with the oft repeated assertion
that drunkenness is decreasing in Swe,
den is question | do not consider N.Y.
self able to answer" There Sweden
stands to-day, after thirty years trial
OF the Gothenburg system, with an
army of temperance workers and Chris
tians trying to counteract its effects,
and with local option in operation
say the advocates of the famous system?
The above can but confirm all true
temperance thinkers in the belief that
there is but one remedy for intemper-
ance, and that is total abstainance for
the individual and total prohibition for
the world. Many sensible people hold
to the view that the moderate use of
liquors is not harmful, but from all
such believers we wish to differ. Dyna-
mite would not hurt anybody or wreck
any property, perhaps, if it could ce

species Of prairie chicken, grouse and
quail, wild turkeys, and during the
autumn and winter months ducks are
plentiful but in the summer they 90 up
into the lakes on the plateau. On the
mountains bordering these valleys are
black, cinnamon and tip tail bear, the
lion and the panther, the wildcat, the
bob-tail and bush-tail skunks, and
higher up in the cliffs and rocks the
eagles build their nest Along the
foothills and in the groves deer and
antelope have feeding ground and
home. In certain seasons wild pig
cons swarm in focks of thousands
Birds of rare plumage and song are
found in particular places but they are
somewhat exclusive and devoted to
localities. In olden times buffalo and
moose were here, and there is legend
of another animal like the cariboo, but
these like the ancient people are now
extinct; all the others are plentiful.
This is par excellence the home of the
hunter and the fisherman.
Since the establishment of the
military post at Camp Verde ranchers
have settled about the valleys here
and there and demonstrated the adapt
ability ef their soil to the successful
production of wide range of crops
and really good wheat, oats, rye,
barley and corn, potatoes, Irish and
sweet, peas, beans, beats, cabbage,
cauliHower, pumpkins, squashes,
asparagus, lettuce, celery brussel sprouts
and all the more delicate varieties of
vegetables, apples, pears, peaches,
prunes, plums and cherries, oranges,
figs and grapes, the pomegranate and
berries Of all kinds. The Strawberries
are particularly large and delicious in
flavor.
And the whole country plateau and
valley is specially adapted to grazing
and dairying; the native grasses are
nutritious and stock does particularly
well and keeps healthy the year round

An Aggressive Church,

The Broadway Baptist church in
Denver, Col has passed the following
emphatic protest and resolutions:
"Whereas, during the past year the
promises made by the political parties
in power have been entirely ignored
and lawlessness and Sabbath dcsecra.
tion have disgra2ed our city and State,
and,
"Whereas, the legalized liquor traffic
is still in our midst ard is doing it's
deadly work, destroying both the bodies
and souls of our friends and ne,gbbors.
Therefore, be it resolved, That this
church declares it the duty Of all its
its members to vote the Prohibition
ticket at the coming election.
"Resolved, That our delegates to the
State convention be requested to present
The Coconino weekly sun., 1895-11-21

and urge the passage of similar resolu
tions before that body"
Much has been said about the church
in politics and Of course there is much
to be said We cannot help but think,
however, that the action of the Baptist
brethren above stated is right What
is our Christian training for if it is not
to fit us for Christian citizenship and
all its duties.
The liquor question is the most i'm
portant issue before the nation, and
there is no good reason why the
churches should not organize against
the saloon power, as its friends do in
favor of it.

One of the common reasons given by
men in the liquor business as an excuse
for such disgraceful employment i,
that apparently very plausible one that
81 must make living for my family.
Here are view pointed observation;
which may help you see another side Of
the question::
Every other man has as good right
to live as you have, and you have nc
right to poison him, even 'to make a
living for your family"
Every other mans family has as
good right to living as your family
has, and you have no right to take the
earnings of the husband and father and
starve his wife and little ones, even ''to
make living for your family"
Every other man has as good a right
to make living as you have, and you
have no right to rob him of his health,
reputation, character, skill and even
the ability to work, and make him a
helpless drunk, even for so commend.
able a reason per Sc as ''to make liv-
ing for your family"
There are several more which might
be given that are equally poignant, but
these will furnish food for reflection.
If they penetrate to the vitals, he
honest and admit their truth and turn
and do right.
a word may be dropped for the sake
of the "better element" who ''do not
care to interfere, for the saloons do not
bother me "
The man who aids or abets is con-
sidered an accomplice by the laws of
every civilized country, and so all who
want to have share in a business like
the above described can have it, but if
they escape the Judgment of the law
there is Judgment which they cannot
escape. You know your duty.
