Fable OF the Good Man
A Picture from Practical Politics by Donald
G. BabCOck, Organizer seth Dist.

There was once a Good Man who
was a Candidate. And behold, there
came to him two Parties who wore
seal rings and tolerably loud vests, and
they said
1--WE understand that you aspire to
a Position of Public Trust"
eyes," said the Good Man, with Par
donable Pride.
"And we," said the two Parties, "are
desirous of helping you in, ii we can
be of any service to you"
"No doubt your influence would be
of great value to me-" replied the Good
Man.
"Of course" continued the two
PARTIES" we would expect some little
favor in return-say, for instance, that
you will grant, when you have come
into your Office, that we may sit, the
One on your Right Hand, the Other
on your Left"
ooh, as for that" said the Good
Man, looking at the ceiling, II have no
doubt at all-that is, hope we can
adjust things to our Mutual Satisfac-
tion."
And it came to pass after the Good
Man had entered Office, that certain
one known as the Simple Public came
to the Good Man by night and said:
"Sir, we know you are Good Man;
why therefore do you not get up and
Do Something?"
And the Good Man bowed politely
and answered:
"I know you can with difficulty be-
lieve me, but a man in my position,
you know, can hardly Lift Hand"
And as the Simple Public walked
thoughtfully away, the Brewer and the
Distiller, who were sitting on either
side of the Good Man, laughed and
said, "Let us arise-and sing"
Moral: It would have been difficult
to hold up even Moses hands If some
one had been sitting on them.

THE ENEMY OF LABOR.

It is sometimes claimed that the
liquor traffic gives employment to
labor and creates demand for mater
ial. The fact is, however, that it pur-
chases less material, employees fewer
men and pays a lower rate o. wages
than any industry with which it may
be eQuitably compared. 1t ranks low
est in the aggregate number of wage
earners in list of fifty-five industries.
It pays only eight per cent for labor,
while the general manufacturer pays
twenty per cent for labor. The United
States department of Labor found up
on inquiry that 72 per cent of agri-
culturists, 70 per cent of manufactur-
ers, 80 per cent of tradesmen, and 80
per cent of railroad officials discrim-
mate against men who drink.

THE CENTER OF GRAFT.

This is the way in which a clergy
man who does not oppose the "moder-
ate" use of liquor looks at the saloon.
DR.. Chas. H. Parkhurst of New York
City told Defender reporter:
1.-The saloon in New York and every
where is the center Of graft. Anything
which there Is law against is subject
to graft. Men pay to escape that law and
the corrupt servants Of the people are
willing to take the hush money-that Is
graft. Therefore because there are so
many laws against the saloon, and be
cause the very nature Of the traffic at
fects directly the lives of the majority.
this grating between saloonkeeper and
official is universal and almost without
exception.
the vice dens Of the city, for when you
say the word saloon you include the dis
reputable house. they are inseparable-
the Siamese twins Of the municipal life"

WoERTENDYKE'S ARGUMENT.

J. H. Woertendyke, the Prohibition
lecturer of California, about to open
his battery in Minnesota, in his lee
ture on "The History Of Great Bat
tie" proves that the liquor traffic vio-
lates the letter and spirit of the en-
active clause of the United States Con-
stitution.
1. 1t prevents the development Of that
"more perfect union" contemplated by the
Founders of the Republic.
2. 1t prevents the establishment and
administration Of justice.
3. It destroys domestic tranquility, as
the daily press reports Of murders, ETC.,
prove.
T. 1t imperils the relations Of the COM
monwealth, so as to prevent common de-
fense against foreign or internal foes.
s. 1t imperils the general welfare OF
the Nation-by disturbing the normal life
of society in all its phases.
g. It not only fails to. secure the
blessings Of liberty" but reduces the peo-
mic and political bondage.
