NEAL DOW.
business

Neal Dow was an active politician,
and served creditably as brigadier
general in the army during the civil
war. but his name became famous
solely on account of his advocacy Of
the prohibition by law Of the sale of
Intoxicating liquors. The first pro-
hibitory measure which was present
ed to the Maine legislature, just sixty
years ago, was the work of Gen.
James Appleton, but Neal Dow was
the first to carry the suppression of
the liquor traffic into effect while
mayor of Portland, and it was owing
to his persistent and earnest efforts
that the Maine law with which his
name is inseparably connected was
placed on the statute book fourteen
years after the Introduction of the
bill of Gen. Appleton. In the pursuit
of the object to which he had devoted
himself he met with the bitterest op-
position, but the storm of malice,
ridicule, censure and obloquy passed
by and left his character untouched
brought to the discharge of his duties
the same fearlessness with which he
advocated his cherished reform in the
face of hostile public opinion, and he
did not shrink from ordering out the
militia when his enforcement of pro-
hibition in Portland threatened a riot.
In this he was clearly in the right, and
today those who question the wisdom
of his policy do not dispute the sin
certify of his faith in it or the high
moral ground upon which he acted.
His ninetieth birthday was celebrated
by gatherings of the friends of tenn
perance and morality in many parts
of the English speaking world, and
the mental and bodily vigor retained
by him at that great age constituted
one of the best arguments ever offer
ed in favor of total abstinence.
The habit of hard drinking which
Americans inherited from.their Eng
lish ancestors was prevalent among
the best classes during the childhood
and youth Of Neal Dow to an extent
which we can hardly realize today.
Total abstinence, instead of being the
rule among clergymen, was a rare ex-
ception, and excessive drinking not
uncommon, from which the habits of
the laity may easily be inferred. 1t
was this condition of things which
Neal Dow sought to remedy, and if
n &c n oh oil fho
good which he claimed it would it
abolished much evil. The change in
the customs of society which has
made tipping disreputable would
never have taken place but for the
work of the Maine apostle of prohi
bition and his brother reformers, and
the Indirect, if not the direct, results
of prohibition have been largely ben
,efcial to Maine, Neal Dow undoubt-
eddy overestimated the efficacy of law
in making men temperate, but he set
a noble example of conscientious ad-
herence to principle, and his life was
a model of pure, upright Christian
manhood. He has gone to the rest
he longed for, concious that his good
name was secure and that he had won
the love and appreciation of thou
sands of good men and women who
never saw him. Such a fate is to be
envied more than that of a public
man who made fewer mistakes, but
was less unyielding in his devotion to
what DE felt was right Reporter.

New Jersey has been greatly an
noyed and ,disgraced by gambling
connected with horse racing and
other species of gambling for many
years, there being no way under the
laws of the state whereby it could be
prevented. The people there have
recently had opportunity to vote on
a constitutional amendment which
will give them opportunity to vote
against the evil. The vote in the
state was very light, but the anti
gambling party carried the vote by a
few hundred majority, much to the
delight of the order loving citizens.

A MUSICAL ADVANTAGE.

The Boston Symphony Orchestra which

with confidence upon one OF its most cnl-
tured and cordial audiences. new evidence
of which is afforded by this seasons pro
gram which extended by two concerts
over previous years.
Providence is fortunate to be so situated
as to have the symphony Orchestra
easily at command, for while its field. as the
leading organization of its kind in the
country. is national, it ia, of course, a
physical impossihility for it to cover
more than very limited portion OF that
field. New York extends its royal well

The campaign against 1ammany In
Greater New York seems to have been
largely based on grievances. We were
told from day To day IL the news reports
that "good citizens" and the better
Tammsny was a wicked crittcr and good
people could only pray devoutly to be
spared from Tammany rule. Nothing was
quite so wicked as Tammany. Croker
was man TO be feared and the town
that acknowledged him would be entitled
TO universal pity. Moreover the Platt
Republicans were grieved at the insistencc
OF the Low forces 20 push their man and
the latter complained because the Repub-
licans persisted in maintaining their
party integrity. Indeed. about every body
whimperei at the wickednoss of every
body else while all united in pathetic
appeal to be saved from Croker and the
Wigwam.
Iammany had no grievance except 80
far as it was vigorously expressed in
the phrase Ito h. with reform" That
was bold and audacious challenge to
good government indeed, but to the
great run Of people boldness and audacity
are attractive and those qualities blind
the eyes TO the fine distinctions Of right
and wrong. Everybody else outside of
Tammany was complaining bitterly.
There was no end of grievings and heart
burnings Tammany alone had nothing
TO complain Of. 1t found no fault with
arybody. Placed on the defensive 1t did
not bother to answer back but selected it's
own battle-ground and assumed the
offensive, always excellent political as wei |
as military strategy. Tammany found no
particular fault with any of the other
forces In the conflict. The tiger growled
savagely but it never whined or WINGED
when il was hit. 1t is not strange that
its audacity, its aggressivepess its tireless
fighting without stopping to complain
or bother at the attacks of its opponents
should have been rewarded with tre-
mendous popular support We can con
ceive that the people Of Greater New York
must have got heartily sick and tired of
all the chickering's and fault findings and
grievances outside the Tammany crowd
and joined with the fellows that had the
bull dog characteristic of not knowing
when they were hurt but kept fighting all
the time.
