AN OLD-TIME PETITION.
Presented to the Ohio Legislature in
1S36-Sets Forth the Evils of
Intemperance.

Intemperance cuts down youth in its
vigor, manhood in its strength, and
age in its weakness. 1t breaks the IA
theirs heart, bereaves the doting moth
er, eXtinguishes natural affection,
grasses conjugal love, blots out filial at
tachments, blights parental hope. and
brings down mourning age in sorrow to
the grave. 1t produces weakness, not
strength; sickness, not health; death,
not life. 1t makes wives widows; chill
dren orphans; fathers, fiends; and all
of them, paupers and seggars.
It halls fevers, feeds rheumatism,
nurses govt, welcomes epidemic, invites
the cholera, imports pestilence, and en-
braces consumption, 1t covers the land
with idleness, poverty, disease and
crime. 1t fills your jails, supplies your
almshouses, and demands your asy-
lums. 1t engenders controversies. fos-
ters quarrels, and cherishes riots. 1t
condemns laws, spurns order, and loves
mobs. 1t crowds your penitentiaries
and furnishes victims for your scat
folds. 1t is the liSe-blood of the gam
bier, the aliment of the counterfeiter,
the prop of the highwayman, and the
support of the midnight incendiary. 1t
countenances the liar, respects the
thief, and esteems the blasphemer. 1t
violates obligation, reverences fraud
and honors infamy.
1t defames benevolence. hates love,
accuses virtue, and ISLANDERS innocence.
1t incites the father to butcher his off,
spring, helps the husband to massa-
ere his wife, and aids the child to grind
the parricidal ak. 1t burns up men,
consumes women, detests life, curses
God, despises Heaven. 1t suborns wit
nesses, nurses perjury. defiles the jury
box and stains the judicial ermine. 1t
brides votes, disqualifies voters, cor
rupts elections, pollutes our institu-
tions, and endangers our government.
1t degrades the citizen, debases the
legislator, dishonors the statesman,
and disarms the patriot. 1t brings
shame, not honor; terror, not safety;
despair, not hope; misery, not happi-
ness; and now, as with the malevolence
of iend, it calmly surveys its fright
full desolations, still insatiate with
havoc, it poisons felicity, kills peace,
ruins regulations, and wipes out ma
tional honor, then curses the world and
laughs at it's ruins.
1t does all that and more-it murders
the soul. 1t is the son of villainies, the
father of all crimes, the mother OF
denominations, the Devils best friend,
and Gods worse enemy.-Petition to
Ohio Legislature in 1886.

WEARY OF BEING A DRUNKARD
Edward w. Field, Son of Cyrus Field,
Declares He VIII Yet Prove
Worthy Son.

This is a great downfall for me, but
l hope to regain myself again. Some
day | may show people that l am not
hopeless"
Edward w. Field, favorite son of Cy.
rus Field, the multi-millionaire father"
of the transatlantic cable. spoke thus
in the alcoholic ward of Bellevue hos.
pital after SOLDERING up from long
Gebauch.
A millionaire once, he has become a
tramp, anditis said that there is scarce
ly city in the United States which he
has visited where he has not been
locked up for intoxication.
In 1892 the brokerage firm of Field
Lindley, Wiechers DC Co., of which
young Field was senior partner, failed
for 100000; and he was indicted for
larceny.
Before the trial he was adjudged in
sane and sent to an asylum in Buffalo.
When he came out his father was dead
of broken heart.
MY affairs were tangled up be-
yond unraveling," he said. "Only
death remained for me-or drink
Il chose drink and became a wan
derer, driven by restlessness from
place to place.
'But l have had enough of drink now.
I am going to fight this craving for
liquor with all the strength that's left
me.
And I'll win out. I'm bound to win
out. 1 want to be a respected man
again and rich"
The attendants at Bellevue were
skeptical about the mans statement
that he was Edward w. Field, the son
of the famous Cyrus Field, but DR..
Willard Parker, of No. West Ninth
street, who knows him well, says it is

TEMPERANCE ITEMS.

The Free Church Temperance So
ciety, of Scotland, is celebrating it's
jubilee this year.
The Sons of Temperance, an Eng
fish society. has an adult membership
of 42,T75, gain for the year of 1909.
There are TAO saloons in the First
ward of Chicago, and in one sec ton
there are 20 in one block.
Only six per cent. of criminals in
this country are women, but the
proportion will change for the worse
if wine rooms are to be multiplied
throughout the country.
BY a canvass of a western city,
made on one Sunday, it was found
that $4,000 people were in church, and
$4,000 attending ball games and in
dives and places of sin.
Rev. c. D. Crane, of Portland, Me-,
thus explained the other day why so
many Maine officials permit the il
legal sale of liquor: "They know that
we will continue to vote as we pray
that is, with our eyes shut"
The five breweries of Toledo, o.,
have virtually said to the people OF
that city that Unless the brewers can
have unlimited privileges in selling
their beer at the centenAial of 1909,
the people caHnot have a centennial.
Each of the fixe brewers subscribed
$4,000, then withdrew it, because of
the Clark bill that was to come before
the legislature.

ALCOHOL VS.. FOOD.
Facts About the Two Arranged in
Parallel Columns in Very
Telling Way.

AS Prof. Atwater's polemics on the
old alcohol-a-food dogma have been
addressed to the laity, who are not
generally in position to detect the
fallacies of which his arguments are
constructed, it becomes the plain duty
of members of the medical profession to
expose these fallacies in the public
press in order that the people may
know the truth. The American people
never make mistakes when they know
the whole truth.
A most efficient way to show up the
fallacies in the statements about al
cohol is to range the truth for alcohol
and for food in two parallel columns.
1t is indeed a deadly parallel" for al
cohol, and any one of the antitheses
