SHALL The CRIME OF
LIQUOR SELLING BE LICENSED? +?

Is the use of alcoholic drinks as a
individual, to the household or to the
community?
Does the habitual or the occasional
taking of alcoholic drinks render
man better or more reliable servant,
a better officer, more trustworthy
agent or friend?
The answer to these questions seems
so plain that one is disposed to apollo
gize to an intelligent community for
even propounding them.
The railroad managers of the conti-
mental lines of America we learn, will
not employ in any responsible position
in their service a man who even oc-
caSionally visits drinking saloon. The
lives and property committed to them
cannot be intrusted to even an occa-
sional drinker. Hence total abstinence
is the law of these highways of COM
merce.
stimulant fortifies man for prolonged
or heroic endeavor is exploded. The
shipowner seeks the temperance man
to command his ship. The captain val
ues his crew in proportion as they are
steady men. The enlightened citizen
patroniZes the thoroughly abstaining
physician. Nansen. the brave and eX-
perienced Arctic explorer. will take
with him, as fellow explorers, only
total abstainers, and declares that the
most moderate drinker cannot endure
the cold or the hardships of an Arctic
winter as we'll as the total abstainer.
Some physicians no longer prescribe
alcoholic stimulants for their patients,
and in some hospitals of England and
America such stimulants are no longer
used.
Not only may the manufacture. sell
ing and drinking of alcoholic drinks
be counted a crime, but the mother of
reliable of the judges of our courts
trace 10 per cent. of the crimes COM
mitted in enlightened countries TO the
use of alcoholic drinks.
Saith the wise man: Who hath
Woe? Who hath sorrow? Who hath
contentious? Who hath babbling? Who
hath wounds without cause? Who
hath redness of eyes? They that tarry
long at the wine; they that go to seek
mixed wine. Look not thou upon the
wine when it is red. At the
last it biteth like a serpent and sting
eth like an adder
This evil has been the curse of hu-
manity throughout all the ages; yet
how simple and sure the remedy:
Look not on the Wine" Touch not.
taste not, handle not"
Whence come the dark crimes that
blacken the history of our peaceful
islands? What was the matter with
Jones. who one evening shot and kill
ed two kindly women who had not
harmed him? What led to the murder
of the eight-year-old Wharton boy of
Waialua? Who is accountable for the
murder of these innocent persons by
men more dangerous than wild beasts?
Are not We all responsible? Are not
these fearful crimes and the misery
untold of households of innocent peo-
pie to be laid at the door of the COM
munity and of the legislators who Ii
cense the manufacture and the sale of
The Pacific commercial advertiser., 1906-10-15

the drinks, whose inevitable fruits are
the destruction of man, the Staying of
woman, the murder of children? Is not
the liquor business "the sum of all
villainies,' the crime of the ages, the
our twentieth century civilization? Is
it not high noon with us? Has not the
day of redemption dawned in which we
shall sweep this plague from our land?
The Good Book says: Woe unto
him that giveth his neighbor drink,
that puttest thy bottle to him and
maketh him drunken" What more SOL
emn warning could God give to man!
What more touching appeal than the
cry of oppressed children. the sighs of
wronged womanhood! Shall not the
enlightened people arise. and put an
end to this mother of crimes and of
misery? When you see viper put
your heel on his head
Now, we ask, how can an upright
man in our halls of legislation say:
1--WE do not believe in the low and
shabby saloon. where gather the poor
and the miserable; but if any one will
give us round sum of money. say
$1,000 a year or $4,000 a year, we will
license him to manufacture or to sell
the death-deaIing poison to his fellow
men"
No; forever no. My right hand
will never vote for high license or low
license, or for any completely in the
crime of our twentieth century,
