Prohibition in the South
washington Times)

The south is very fast becoming a
prohibition country. A liquor trade pa
per recently pointed out that two
thirds of the area of this country is
now closed against the saloon by one
form or another of prohibition, and
served notice that the saloon must inn
prove itself and keep in touch with
the advance of public sentiment or it
will finally have to go entirely. Why
the selling of whisky is legally for
bidden in more than half of Kentucky!
WHAT does it signify? Prohibition
areas increase, but the consumption of
liquor does not significantly decrease.
The reason is that drinking is beconl-
ing social matter instead of vice.
We are being continentalized.

AntisocialIstic "Dont's."

That the teachings of Christ and the
Bible, If carried out logically, make for
socialism. Mr.. 7. II. b. Bodenhamer
has tried to impress in series of
ironie "dont's." They are printed in the
Christian Socialist Chicago, March 15)
and run as follows:
IF you don't want socialism. quit
protesting to believe in the Golden
Rule as d rule of life.
IF you don't want socialism. do not
follow Christ, who said, Love one an
other as / have loved YOU
IF you don't want socialism, quit
repeating the beatitudes, which teach
the meek shall inherit the earth
If you don't want socialism, dtsa
gree with Paul, who said, IF man will
not labor. neither let him eat
IF you don't want socialism. quit
praying Thy kingdom come thy will
be done, on earth as it is in heaven
III you don't want socialism, repudi-
ate Christ's teaching. He that would
be great among you let him be your
servant
IF you don't want socialism. quit
advocating the universal Fatherhood
of God and the universal brotherhood
of man..
IF you don't want socialism, quit
preaching justice to all men, and
preach special privileges for the rich
and oppression for the poor.
III you don't want socialism, re-
nounce Christs teaching on wealth,
How hardly shall they that have
riches enter into the kingdom of
heaven
IF you don't want socialism, re-
pudate Christ's teaching on war: for
If You do have socialism the pro-
phecy of Isaiah will be fulfilled, They
shall beat their swords into plow-
shares and their spears into pruning
hooks. Nation shall not life up sword
against nation neither shall they learn
war any more
1T you don't want socialism. you will
have to repudiate Christ and the Bible:
for the observance of their fundamen-
tai teachings will make socialism in
evitable Perhaps that is the reason
your church is not succeeding any bet
ter; 1t has repudiated Christ for capi-
talsm."

THE PRICE OF A BROKEN SWITCH,
THIRTY-NINE HUMAN LIVES AND
MANY INJURED.

Literally Cooking Many of the
Passengers Alive.

Santa Barbara, Cal, May 13.-At

more persons injured, some fatally,

the fearful price paid for a defect In
a switch which hurled a Shriners' spe-
cial on the Southern Pacific coast
line from the rails at Honda. What
followed completely unnerved men,
caused women to swoon, and even the
surviving members of the crew, hard
ened by calamities in their railroad ex'

seemed their only relief. 1t was the
worst disaster in the history Of the
Southern Pacific coast line, and pos
sibly since trains began to thread the
west.

In an instant after the feaful plunge
over 80 were 6ead-crushed into al
most unrecognizable forms. Fire fol
lowed, burning the bodies of the life

have been saved, though they were
pinned down by splintered timbers
twisted steel and great masses OF
other debris.
Adding TO the horror, the hot-watel
system of the train burst. Scalding
steam and water literally cooked many
of the passengers alive. Male victims
begged to be killed. They wished all

ALCOHOLISM IN THE TROPICS.
Its Effect Is More Terrible Ihsre
Than In Cooler Climates.

A remarkable article on the dangers
of alcoholism in tropical climates mas
recently appeared in French medical
review. 1t is written by DR.. f. h.
Renant, a noted French physician
who has made a special study OF the
subject. He says:
THE old-time medical advice, do
not drink alcohol in warm climates,
is not to be lightly regarded in these
modern days. The parelyzing and de-
generating effect of alcohol, in what
ever form or however pure, on all the
bodily organs and especially the nerv-
GUS centers, is greatly accentuated IN
tropical regions. Mainly to the use OF
alcohol is due the frequency and
gravity of diseases of the intestines In
these climates. The depression
caused by a heated, heavy and moist
climate makes the nervous centers
peculiarly sensitive to the bodily dis
orders, arising from it's use. Drink
ers are peculiarly liable to sunstroke.
Even moderate consumption OF
wine or spirits leads to a state OF
torpor; the brain functions become
paralyzed; congestion arises in the
weakened blood vessels, inducing to-
ward apoplexy; while the constant
and repeated use of alcohol during eX-
cessive heat tends to speedily result
in delirium and insanity-that 'trop-
ical madness as the Germans call it,
which has given rise to many of the
terrible acts recorded in the history
of colonization within the tropics. In
those regions it is but short step
from habit to excess, then to its ter
rible result, alcoholic insanity.
"An absolute horror of alcohol
ought to be instilled into all those
going to the tropics; a settled convic-
ton of the uselessness of weaker, and
the injuriousness of the stronger, Of
its forms. How. many lives have been
lost there through apopleXy, through
injury to the arteries caused by alco
hol? How many men die there be-
tween the ages of 40 and so who, If
they had been abstainers and of regu-
lar life, might easily have lived to 60
or 70! None should be allowed to
leave for these climates without be-
ing first Systematically instructed in
these things, and this is specially true
of those who will belong to the gov
erning classes there. If they could
be universally persuaded of these
facts, their precepts and example
would have great influence on the
humber white man ard on the ma
tive"

MAKING 1T CHEAP TO DIE.
Rival Undertakers of Greater New
York in Cut Price Battle.

Within the confines of Greater New
York there exists a funeral director
who offers to donate, minus strings,
$500 to a certain hospital if his COM
petitors prove that his $35 casket is
not equal in value to that for which
the opposition is alleged to charge $65.
Finally, this cemetery personal con-
ductor declares uneQuivocally as fol-
lows:
IF your undertaken tells you he can
not sell you good black cloth casket,
or imitation oak. with extension bar
handles, engraved name plate, silk
lining pillow, for $35, telephone to our
office. We will have a coach call for
you and your undertaken, bring you to
our show rooms, sell your undertaken
the casket trimmed complete for $35,
deliver it to his Office, and give him a
special discount. Now isn't that fair
to our competitors? Our aim is to
save the laboring man every dollar we
can, and give him a good article with
the best Of services"

Alcohol and Longevity.

In the course Of an address on "Al-
cohol and Health" delivered recently
at Long Eaton, England, Mr.. G. L.
Rothera, B. A., coroner for the city
of Nottingham, dwelt on the great
evils arising from the use of alcohol,
and adduced medical testimony to
show that many fatal accidents were
due to drink He went on to show
that alcohol could not be looked upon
as food, and said returns clearly
showed that people who did not use
alcohol lived longer than those who
did use it. Illness was not so great
amongst teetotalers, and it was gen.
orally admitted that the vitality of
temperance people was greater than
people addicted to Intoxicating drink.
