ALCOHOL MUST GO.
Growth of the Sentiment Against 1t
as an Enemy to Progress and
Civilization.

In the legislatures of Sc of the As
states of the union there have been pre-
scented this winter from one to five pro-
hibitive and restrictive bills to become
laws relating to the use of alcohol.
Never before, says the Journal of In
ebriety, have the lawmakers of the
country been confronted with so many
different measures directed to stop or
control the use of alcohol. This is evil
IDENTIFY the beginning of public recogni-
ton of the dangers which come from its
indiscriminate use in all parts of the
country. A feeling of alarm is growing
up among the common people and ex-
tending to church and state at the
dominance of the delusional theories
concerning alcohol. Silently and surely
this is spreading through all circles Of
society. and the more alcohol is studied
in the laboratory and s~ociologically the
stronger the evidence appears against
ii as an evil to progress and civilization.
In a recent article on this subject in the
School Physiological Journal, Mrs. M.
e. Hunt, the editor, makes the predic.
ton that the child is born who will see
the last legalized saloon, brewery and
distillery disappear from the land. She
asserts that the time came when slav-
cry had to go. Its time was up on the
calendar of the centuries, and although
it was abolished in the storm of wal il
could not go on any farther" Another
similar period is coming on. The slav-
cry from alcohol and the bondage and
losses which its decisions produce must
disappear in obedience to the moral
sense of public opinion, which is now
beginning to assert itself. The teach
ing of the dangers of alcohol in the pub
lie schools is beginning to be felt, and,
Notwithstanding opposition, will grow
more and more every year. Wherever
the subject is known the evils and phys
ical causes will indicate the means of
relief, which cannot be stopped, but can
only be guided and directed. Alcohol
as a beverage with all the places for its
manufacture and sale is doomed, and
this fact is more than ever apparent.
Every physician owes it to himself, to
his family. and the community he lives
in to take up this problem and become
the teacher and director of a movement
that is to occupy a very large place in
the neal future.
