III seems very strange that ~
many people nowadays have for
gotten what they have been telling
Us ProhIbltlonlsts, for 10, these
many years past. They have told
Us in all kinds of infections that
the temperance question is not a
political question at all That il is
a subject Tor moral suasion, for edu-
cation. for the church. and the
home. but not Tor politics. You
can I make man moral by statute
law. You must not drag the
cause of temperance into the dirty
pool OF politics. = The only cure
Tor. intemperance is the Gospel 4
These and similar cries have assaIled
our ears from the various directions.
and from the very men whom we
row find be>ieging Albany with
voclferuus protests on this subject.
This question Of excise legisla-
tion i to-day conceded to be the
foremost question in dispute before
our state legislature. The Chamber

subject and has sent representatives

SUMNER AND sENsA TIoM.

Professor SUMNER OF Yale Is the latest
OF the scholastics to SHREK against the
application OF the MONROE Doctrine and
jingoism generally. Professor SUMNER
is man Of ideas, political and sociolog-
ical and usually strongly at variance
with those OF most other people. He is
himself rank sensationalist, though he
depreciatss sensationalism ia Others. lie
is a sentimentalist through his sentiment
alism wears the guise of stern PRACTICAL
ity. He has attracted attention chiefly
because his sense tionalism, his senti-
mentalism, and his hysteria are at the
other extreme from what commonly
passes for these infirmities as numerously
expressed. SUMNER first attracted public
attention by new and novel solution OF
certain social problems, the gist of
which was that the pauper, the drunkard
and the useless human truck generally
community. The sensation this startling
proposition made at the time was tre-
mendous, just as more recently was that
created by Colonel INoERsoLL's sugges-
ticn that suicide is not a crime. And the
effect OF the SUMNER idea was no more
wholesome or valuable for consideration as
a factor in the consideration of the prob
lens OF life than was tine INaERsoLL con-
tention. AS head OF the department OF
social science and political economy at
Yale, Professor SUMNER can always COM
mand good deal OF respect until he
leaves the class room and opens his mouth
in the pure, free and invigorating atmos-
phere OF the large world outside. Then
he chokes the atmosphere.
