Liberty And Prohibition.

We clip the following excellent
article from the editorial columns
of the Baptist Courier:
Many opposers of prohibition
are fondot making it appear that
prohibltion'is an unwise depriva
tion Of the rightfui liberties of the
citizen They say that a man has
a right to.drink intoxicants when
ever he pleases, and even to get
drunk, provided he does not tres
pass upon. the rights of others.
In answer to this objection, it
may be said that much depends
upon the kind of right that is
claimed, as we'll as upon the con-
dition expressed. AS matters now
stand, it is plain that under exist
ing laws in our State a man may
AaEe a legal right 10 that liberty.

DIR. Laasing Burrows has the,
follcwingio say about "The Folly
Of Dr:nk'.:
Had it not been for drunken
banquet, Herod's soul might have
been gujlsiess Of the blood of that
righteous man who was greatest
among all the prophets OF God.
How many crimes would have
been avoided had it not been for
drink. The fruit reaped upon the
gallows is .sown in the saloon;
from its festive hharites comes the
army of recruits for jails and asy-
lums. Is it strange that for the
sake of a drunken revel a poor
fool should promise half his king
dom and really commit murder.
Vain >hlusterings and horrible
crimes occur every day, and they
are the results of drink. 1t is
more strange that we do not rea-
lie that drink is the cause of most
Of our troubles and sorrows
Health, prosperity, reputation,
peace, and even heaven are the
prices men pay for the exhilarat-
ing draught, and yet we esteem it
as the necessity of social custom
aud the badge of respectability and
the prolific source of public rev.
enue. But kings banauets must
have wine, and wine must have
blood.

is quite possible for him TO exer-
else il, should he wish to do so.
He has the natural liberty, and SO
has a savage. But as to whether
it is morally right for him to exer-
else that right. and whether on
the ground that i, is morally wrong
for him to do So, it is such a moral
wrong as the State should take
in hand, IS quite another question.
1t is here affirmed that The eX
erciSe Of such liberty, even
though it does now exist, is moral
ly wrong. Experience has taught
us in many sad lessons that even
the so called moderate use of in
toXicants is very unwise. That
now and then a man may drink
and not gel drunk is nothing to
the point. Now and then man
may be found who can walk a
wire rope, and that even across
Niagara river. But to note eX-
ceptions is to prove rules. DrinE-
ing even when in a measure con
trolled is so palpably unwise and
dangerous, that it is positively i'm
moral. And if such measured in.
diligence is immoral, surely that
which is less limited can find no
defender. The man who slickleS
for liberty for his fellow-men TO
get drunk, must admit that such
an exercise of it is immoral.
The only remaining question is
whether the morality is of such
a nature that the State ought to
take cognizance of it, and, If posi-
BILE, prevent it. 1t is here contend
ed that this immortality of drink
ing intoXicants does come within
the just prehlbilive powers of the
gateway to such evils as insanity,
suicide, bestiality, and murder, TO
say nothing of the ills i inflicted on
helpless women and children.
Dram d drinking lifts all the re-
slraints If sense, decency and
justice from the soIl, and gives
free reins 10 the devil OLA deprav
ed nature. When a man is pre-:
pared to defend the liberty of in
sane folly aud the freedom OF
loathsome vice, then and then on
ly can he successfully defend
against legal interference the lib
erty of m-drinking. The State
may build an asylum for her cit
izens who have been made in
sane by drink, she may build
prisons for such of them as Ease
been made felons by drink; she
may erect gallows for such as
have been made murderers by
drink; but, forsooth, We are told
that she is trespassing upon in
alienable rights when she attempts
to close the path that leads 10
these institutions. An ounce of
prevention is said to he worth a
pound of cure, but such a doctrine
as the foregoing implies that cure
is everything and-prevention moth
ing. 1t means that its very wise
10 try TO put the wreck together
again, but very foolish to try to re
move the rocks. Grin the case OF
the hanged murderer,lt means Irac
tically that two killings are better
than a law looking to the preven-
ton of both.
Law and liberty must 60 togeth
er. Law without liberty is des-
potism. Liberty without law IS
narbarism. Liberty we'll chasten
ed by law is the highest civlliza-
ton. While sophist editors, self
seeking politicians, blood money
town builders and trade-makers
are proclalming the sacredness of
the liberty of the drink lusk, there's

Malcolm Hufty instituted mandamus
proceedings yesterday against Matthew
Trimble, assessor of the District of Co.
lumbia, in his official capacity, to compel
him TO issue a certain statement of taxes
the legal charge for which is fifty cents
The question in point involves a decision
as TO what nature of checks, deeds, GER
titicates and other papers are subject to
war revenue stamps.
Mr.. Hufty recites the act requiring the
affixing of war revenue stamps upon GER
tain legal papers as part of his complaint,
and claims that according to its terms he
is not compelled TO affix such a stamp TO
a tax certificate.
Mr.. Hufty is the owner of lot No 12O
in square No. 1s6, and having an oppor-
tunity TO sell it, he applied TO Assessor
Trimble for a tax certificate, showing the
amount of taxes. if any. due upon 1t.
The charge for the certificate is fifty
cents, which amount the assessor, the
complainant says, received in payment
for the certificate. When he asked for its
delivery the paper was refused until he
would pay for affixing ten-cent war
revenue stamp upon it. This he refused
TO do, and the certificate was withheld.
Mr.. Hufty further states that he is in
formed that Assessor Trimble is ordered
to withhold the certificate by the Com
missioners of the District of Columbia,
