ones alcohol and carbonic acid gas.
And stranger still, it seems that
thousands of men are employed in
bringing about this change, and
for the sake of the poor man, too.
Alcohol is obtained as you have
seen from the poor mans farm
product, grain. The man who
drinks beer, ,93 per cent of which is
water and z per cent poison, is a
poor deluded man if he is drink
ing it for u health tonic, and he
may remain poor if he continues
paying for every glass of poisoned
water he drinks when he might
have it pure if he desired.
If we might go far enongi1 to tell
of the effect the alcohol has upon
the poor mans physical, mental
and moral being we would have no
further need to wonder why beer
is called the poor mans beverage.
We have seen or heard of the beer
drinkers nose, and the beer drink
er's abdomen, and the beer drink
er's stomach and heart and liver
and kidneys, and we have heard
of his gout, and we say in pity, ,po or
man!
Hop ale is the Indian Territory
substitute for beer and is q fer
mented liquor and is intoxicating.
Notice in the CHIEFTAIN of June
"a, the order OF Judge Clayton of
the central district rfgarding hop
ale.
The men who 60 past our houses
late at night, yelling, cursing and
fighting are surely intoxicated or
else they are very i'll and should
be cared for by the physicians.
The matter is to be considered in
one of two lights. There are in.
toxicants sold, aud that in viola
tion of law, or else the men re-
ferred to are in a dangerous condi-
tion OF mental unhealth and the
public should see TO 1t that they
have proper medical treatment.

Beer, The Poor Mans Beverage.

First, what kind of a beverage
is beer? OF what is it made, how
is it made and for whom is it
made? Perhaps when these ques-
tions are answered, it will be bet

the "poor mans beverage" Beer,
by some people, is supposed to be
a refreshing, healthful and
strengthening drink, but when an
allied ii is found to contain SO per
cent water, 5 per cent alcohol and
2 per cent Of various ingredients.
In lager beer the alcohol is 3 or 4
per cent, in some English ales s
per cent, ia old ale 10 per cent or
IL per cent.
"W ort" is the name for new
beer unfermented or in the act of
fermentation.
Some of the ingredients used in
the manufacture of beer are hops,
which are astringents and narcotic,
broom which is diuretic, opium,
arsenic, cocculus indicus, strych-
nine, tobacco and nux vomica, all
Of which are highly poisonous.
The alcohol for beer is obtained
from the decayed liquid of grain.
The process is 10 keep the grain,
which contains both starch and
sugar, wet and warm until some Of
the starch is turned into sugar, and
the grain sprouts, then il is dried
and is called "malt." The malt
is then put in tubs and warm wat
erpoured upon it, and il is mashed
until a sweet liquid is obtained, a,
which is called "sweet wort.
This sweet wort is next boiled
with hops and when cool yeast Is
added TO make il ferment. This
causes the particles Of sugar CON
tanned in the grain sprouts TO break
up and turn into alcohol, aud car
