Cure for In emperance.

Intemperance i an individual
evil, and the reform must be indi-
yidual. A are the units, so is the
state. We sometimes forget this
and think il we had the law, we
could do everything. Laws on
statute books do damage in every
way to society unless enforced. The
cure for intemperance is the educa-
ton Of individuals. We need re-
vival among ministers and church
members and fashionable mothers
to train children to be {. mperate in
all things. Ii is the small matters
that develop character in the boy.
and girls. 1t i 8 very good thing
for a boy of 6 or 16, to know that
here are some things he cannot
have. believe this training ot
children to self denial, self sacrifice
and self control goes to the root o.
the evil. 1t touches the very be
ginning - Bis.op Vincent.

What Every State Needs.

Nothing could be more encourag-
ing than the report from Missouri
that the circuit court Of appeals at
=. Louis has unanimously sustain
ed the antitrust law OF that state.
which inyalidates all debts TO trusts.
Most OF the good news in the war
against trusts nowadays is coming
from the south, not because it is
the South, but because the south is
democratic, and the democrat party
Is opposed to trusts. 1t was the
democratic sentiment in Missouri
that passed the antitrust law ofthat
state Ii is democratic officials that
are enforcing it. II is democratic
Judges that are sustaining il. Who
ever heard of democratic court re-
verslng the law in the interest of
class and against the welfare OF the
people? The Missouri law is an ex-
ample to other states of an effective
and Just wav OF dealing with trusts.
They can exist only BY permission
oi the law. They are defying the
avs that permit their existence.
Then why not deny them the pro-
lection Of the law? That is all the
Missouri law does. 1t says to these
aw-breakers IF you will not obey
.he laws you shall not use the laws
ior the collection OF debt" II is
u-t retribution, and it will put an
md TO the trust business in Missou-
i. That is the kind Of law demo-
rats would give Indiana.

REf0RMAT0RY STATISTICS.
But Nineteen Of the paroIed Men Have
Been Returned.

The state board of charities ha
completed statistics as To the opera
tion of the ref)rmatory for the en-
tire time it has been conducted a
such. Ol April | the institution
entered upon the third year of ii
existence. In the two years Jus

ious causes. Every shop ana home
10 which a paroled man is sent il
thoroughly investigated, and where
former associations have been bac
the man is sent a. far away from
his old home as possible. Other
are sent direct to their homes, anC
neighbors have given much assist
ance. There has been no trouble
in securing employment for parolec
men. The reformatory keeps {
strict watch of the men and they
are required to report regularly.
The indeterminate sentence law
j. found to have extended the aver
age time of Imprisonment. From
April /, 1896, prior to the enact
ment of the inieterminate sentence
law, the number OF men released
after one years service was 32 pei
cent. From April | to October /,
1897, under the indeterminate sen
ance law, the averags number OF
men released after one years SER
vice was - per cent.
during the first two years OF the
history these paroled
men together earned a total OF
81 ,22O.2i. One hundred and
twenty-five of them also received
their board for a greater or less part
part Of the time, which at an aver
age value Of r3 per week Is 80. .639,

I'd in the reforDatory the state
would have been required to board
hem. The cost of maintenance for
each inmate for the year ending
)ct. 81, 1898, was S1l4.76. They
would have cost the state over
81, 600 for their support. In ad-

TO LESSEN DRINKING.
Suggestions for the Control OF the
Liquor Traffic.

One Of the most interesting feat
urer ia the recent report Of the ma
tional labor bureau respecting the
liquor traffic i that devoted to the
answers received to the query adj
dressed to the proprietors Of about
> 900 establishments as 10 what
means. in their view, could be taken
To- lessen the consumption OF intoxi-
eating liquor amcng the people. A
might be expected, the replies re-
Iceived indicate a wide difference Of
opinion. About 500 different means
are suggested Proprietors OF over
| 900 establishments suggest prohi-
bition. Almost 500 think most
would be accomplished if firms
would refuse to employ drinking
men. over 500 advocate higher
liquor license.
Other suggested means Of reform
are education, abolition Of saloons,
improvement OF social conditions,
government control, enforcement Of
existing laws, local option, high
revenue tax, prohibition Of treating,
and example Of employers. A
number advocate closing saloons IN
sunday and early ON week days.
The idea OF this evidently j. 10 keep
them open Only during working
hours, when the wage earning class
cannot patronize them. Others
would make drunkenness punish
able misdemeanor. Not a few are
in favor of removing all restr ctions.
A number would encourage the use
OF light wines and beer, believing
that then stronger drinks would be
let alone.
1t is OF course interesting to note
what liquor dealers have to say on
the subject. Nearly all report that
upon employing new men they take
into Consideration their drinking
habits. Liquor dea,e,s OF course
would fare doubly worse a. a result
Df overdrinking than employers en-
gagged in other business. Tleir en-
ployees would not only neglect their
duties but consume their stock
