Continental municipalities are Tar in ad-
vance of American cities in the matter of
public sanitary works, and especially in
the disposal of sewage. Paris Is now car
ryng out a scheme TO abandon the present
policy of polluting the Seine with sewage,
and divert the material to extensive farms
that have been established on the out
skirts of the city. The success Of the Ber-
lin sewage farms has done much to show
the value of this scientific method of
handling the waste products of large COM
munities. All the houses OF Berlin, with
the exception of a few in the thinly-
settled outskirts, are connected with the
new drainage works, which are carrying
annually from 70.00O,00O to $4,000 900 cubic
yards of sewage to be scientifically irri-
gated over the surface of municipal farms
having an aggregated extent of more
than 10000 acres, or upwards of thirty
square miles.

A BRIEF REVIEW.

Congress adjourned amid scenes Of
grossest debauohery and drunkenness.
Bad women were there singing indecent
songs with drunken congressman.
The Indiana legislature adjourned In
q riot which would be a disgrace even
to the worst whisky den.
The New York World makes open
charges Of bribery against the New
York legislature.
The investigation Of frauds in the
New Jersey legislature show the very
worst state Of corruption.
Gambling bills have been passed by
two or three state legislatures.
The Delaware legislature killed bill
prohibiting the printing of lottery tick
cts, and thus indirectly gave its support
to the lottery evil.
One state has passed a law legalizin0
prize fighting.
Temperance measures have been de-
feated almost in every state.
The corrupt, the vicious, the gam
blers and rumsellers are in command
of the lawmaking and law enforcing
powers Of every state.
This power is supported by the decent
Christian manhood Of America.
Shamei Yes, thousand times, shame
upon all SUCH

ADMITTED TRUTHS.

The Washington Sentinel. the we'll
known organ of the beer business, says
editorially in its issue of March 0:
The recent elections in New York state,
where many towns and cities voted "no IL
cense." and various Prohibition victories. In
other states show that the craze Is not dead
on the contrary, is Increasing. Here
In Washington we have more or less Of 1t, and
that under Democratic administration.
For % years we have prevented such legisla-
ton, especially that appointing liquor in
vestigation traffic commission.
This champion Of personal license ad-
mits In the above three valuable points:
First. THAT sentiment against the
saloon is growing, and that that senti-
ment is being orystallized at the ballot
box.
Second. THAT the beer brewers have
succeeded for % years in preventing
temperance legislation in Washington.
Third.-That the liquor men are
afraid Of the facts that liquor com.
mission would show.
These are valuable points and we'll
worth pressing home.
The saloon is in politics II governs
the old parties from the ward primary
to the congress Of the United States
The voter in supporting these old par
ties gives his official Endorsement to
this kind Of politics
When will the conscience Of this ns-
ton be- aroused?
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1895-04-30

convention held in Philadelphia in the
fore part Of March that the liquor men
control ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND
VOTES in the state.
He said that the bill to reduce the
high license would not be passed in the
legislature at present for fear of leopard
izing the bill for preventing wholesal-
ers from selling less than gallon OF
spirituous and less than - pint bottle
of malt liquors He promised that this
bill would pass the legislature and be
signed by the governor. This bill alone
would be worth So, 900 year to every
saloon keeper.
The instant it was learned that the
liquor dealers would send delegation
to Harrisburg, he said, it was sufficient
to force the bill out Of committee. He
said that they could soon have 10000
members in the State league and con-
troll 100, 900 votes That would mean
something, no matter what political
party was concerned.
This is the secret power of the liquor
men. They are in politics not as oiti-
zens of the state, with any fixed opinion
on public questions, but they vote az
liquor men, and know neither party nor
principle. The party that opposes the
free sale of liquor or seeks to enforce
any restrictive law cannot get their sup
port.
This is the reason why Republican
saloon keeper has hundred times more
influence in his party than Republic
an minister.
The politician knows that he can
count on the minister's vote, right OF
wrong, but he must bow to the wishes
Of the rumseller, or the vote is lost.
Nay, he loses the whole liquor support,
for, as a rule, they vote as one man
when their interests are at stake.
When will "the children Of light
get a little political light into their
prejudiced. darkened oonsciences?

Of the liquor traffic. He has secured
200, 900 play cards with the usual or

clubs, etc., ON the face. On the front
he has had printed the most striking

look at Prohibition document are car
rying these around and showing them
to their friends. These cards reach a
class that cannot be reached in any 9th
