In a recent issue OF the New York
Journal an ably written editorial on
intemperance appeared. which ex'
poses the writer TO be a great heart.
ed philanthropist. filled with tender
co~mmiseration for his unfortunate
brothers. To the drunkard he gives
his sympathy rs one who has become
a victim TO n vicious habit In the vain
endeavor TO drown his troubles In
drink. But Mr.. Hearst misrepresents
the attitude OF the prohibitionist Is
when he asserts that brutal contempt
for the drunkard Is the commonest at
titude. but 1t Is not that of human
dCcency or OF the bibles teachings:
Give strong unto him that Is ready
to perish. but wine until the bitter IN
soul: let him drink and forget his
poverty and remember his misery no
more. Proverbs. XXI, & and Z.
Surely the intelligence Of Mr.,
Hearst cannot so misinterpret the 1g
uratiye language OF King Solomon as
literal advice to use intoxicants as O
panacen for human misery? There Is
the strong drink" we quaf from q
spiritual fountain Of love and
strength which rejuvenates US, and Is
as sweet as "wine TO the bitter In
| soul" To him who thirsteth "it shall
| be In him n we'll springing up into
everlasting life" Let him drink and
forget his poverty, and remember his
misery no more" No class SO ain
cerely pities or is so eager to help the
drunkard ms the prohibitlonlsts. anC
he Is eve given encouragement In
stead OF brutal contempt" when III
strives to free himself from the dom
nation OF the liquor habit. The figh
OF the prohibition party is waged no
against the drunkard. the helpless
victim, but the one who robs him MOI
only of his mortal health and happl
ness. but his immortal inheritance
as well. Addressing the temperance
agitators Mr.. Hearst again says:
Devote your lives to abolishing pow
erty. misery. ignorance, lack OF op
%portunity. the bitterness OF soul that
accompanies all these, and you will
be successful as reformers of men"
Certainly the simplest, surest meth
cd to open of opportunity Is
10 eliminate from society the prime
factor in the production OF poverty
misery and Ignorance. Not one senti
