M,AULEY ANp L1QUoR.

Judge McAuley, a Kansas City police
magistrate, is out in an interview con-
corning whisky and its relation to crime
The gist Of the judges statements is that
ninety-five per cent of the cases tried in
his court are directly the result ofiquor;
and though there is nothing original
about this opinion it should have a little
more than ordinary weight, as coming
from a man who is not temperance
lecturer or a prohibition crank About
the same statistics are cited by the or
binary prohibitionist, but he is usually
sized up as a man lacking experience
and over-zealous in the temperance
cause. The opinions Of Judge McAuley,
however. come from one accustomed to
hearing the facts and applying the law
as it stands, and are therefore worth at
least a second thought. Among other
things Judge McAuley says: I'VE shall
never see the day when whisky shall
not be sold to anyone with the money
to pay for it, and just SO long as it shall
continue to be sold just so long shall we
have police courts and crime. The woes
that arise from the use Of whisky, the
ruined men and women, the broken fam
lilies. the griefs and tears all aired in
this court are enough to turn gray the
hair on a buffalo robe
compliment upon the municipality, state
or nation permitting such a vital evil
to exist If intemperance is responsible
for 50 much trouble. it would seem
proper to take more steps by which
those who are paying out their money
for the apprehension and punishment Of
criminals should be relieved Of a portion
of the expense.
The press dispatch in which Judge Nc
Auley's words were found also contain
ed the observation that Mrs. Nation and
her followers might get some consolation
from the judges opinion Rather the
comment should have been that they
should receive fresh inspiration for
proper and systematic crusade against
business so illogical from business rea-
soning.
This is practical dissertation
on temperance, and it is proper to call
attention to the experience of a man
who for years has been impartially lis
tening to evidence and applying the

GROWTH OF sPIR1rUAL1sm.

The growth of new religious cults is
amazing
In view Of this fact, it is not surpris-
ing to find that Topeka has large and
growing society of believers in the doc
trines Of Spiritualism Many who are
deeply interested in Spiritualism are
lacking in the necessary moral courage
to openly ally themselves with the work
of the society. But the avowed believ-
ers in Spiritualism represent considera-
Bile financial power. and are from all
classes of people. the well educated be-
ing in as large a proportion as in other
religious denominations.
Spiritualisim does not upset the old
standards any more than does Christian
Science. Both insist that God makes
himself manifest in miraculous way at
the present time as he did in the times
told of by the old testament. If one
can accept this fundamental doctrine, it
is easy to believe in Spiritualism. and
in every form of supernatural NANTES
tation.
Faith in such a doctrine must be a
consoling faith. People are anxious to
have something just like that to believe.
Undoubtedly, there is a great deal Of
fake" work done under the name Of
Spiritualism. Spirftualists themselves
admit this. The question which outsid-
ers ask is. rs not the whole Of Spiritu-
alisrn a falxe2''
About all that it is necessary to do to
make a Spiritualist out of man is to
give him one actual demonstration.
which will be absolutely above suspic-
ion Many Spiritualists when closely
questioned, admit that they have seen
only one manifestation of spirit power
which was entirely satisfactory, but
that having seen that one. they are pre-
pared to believe other manifestations.
which otherwise they would consider
questionable.
Slate writing is favorite form of
spirit manifestation. Yet there are plen-
ty of clever legerdemain artists who
can reproduce every form of slate writ
ing ever done by mediums.
"A cabinet. out Of which spirits walk
is the standard Spiritualistic test. But
the travelling magician" can get as
wonderful results from a cabinet as any
spirit guide ever succeeded in doing.
So-ealled communications from the
