Growth of Prohibition,

opinions,

wilmington IN VI messenger
The prohibition wave is sweeping over
the country, especially in the Southern
States. In North Carolina in very large
majority of the counties there are no IL
censed saloons, and every now and then
there is local option election in some town
which results in closing the saloons or the
dispensary, Heretofore existing in the
town. South Carolina wiped out her State
Dispensary law not long ago. Georgia, by
an act of the legislature, effective next
January, has put an end to the sale of
liquor in that State. The Mississippi Leg
islature, which meets next January. it is
thought, will follow the example of that of
Georgia.
The probabilities are that Alabama.
Texas and Louisiana will establish prohi-
bition either by direct act of the legislature
or by vote of the people under acts of
the next legislature submitting the question
to the people. 1t would not be at all sur
prising to US were the next legislature of
this State to pass straight-out prohibition
bill or an act submitting the question to
the people. The indications are that in
less than two years we will have prohibi-
ton in this State through one or the other
OF these courses-by direct act of the leg
islature. as was done in Georgia, or by
popular vote. The prohibition sentiment
is making rapid growth in this State as in
other sections of the South. There is many
man who will vote for prohibition to-day
who would not have done so a year ago. /.

Save the Uuseful Birds.
New Iberia Observation-Disclosures

New Iberia Enterprise-Leader.I
Notwithstanding all that is being done
by Audubon societies and friends of the
birds, the wanton slaughter of the friend
Of the farmer and the enemy of insect
pests that are gaining ground is still going
on. Where once the fields and the woods
and the prairies and mountains were alive
with feathered insect hunters, to-day one
might travel far and meet few specimens.
The cry comes every year that the boil
weevil is advancing, that it is threatening
to destroy the whole of the cotton crops of
the South, and thousands of dollars have
been expended in trying to discover way
to keep it in cheek All this time the small
boy and the wanton hunter have been de-
stroying the birds that formerly kept it in
check and the punishment, consisting in
loss of crops, is reaching the innocent and
guilty alike.
A recent report by the Department Of
Agriculture states that forty three species
of our native birds feed on this pest. the
boil weevil But what has man done to
protect these forty-three kinds of birds?
Very nearly nothing, and the small boy
to-day may be seen diligently pursuing the
very birds that are endeavoring to aid his
parent in lifting the mortgage, while the
latter looks indifferently on. If the planter
and the farmer generally could be brought
to realize the Importance of fostering the
birds there does not seem to be any doubt
but his complaint against the insects that
destroy his crops would soon cease. But
the enemy has gained start and the bird
friend has been practically destroyed, and
the consequence is that he must adopt
other. means of checking the ravages Of
the weevil.

New iberia Enterprise Leader: Not a
day has passed since the first of the pres
ent year but the telegraph has recorded
some railway accident that has cost life
and the destruction of property. The
slaughter by the railroads during the past
two years. according to statisticians, has
been equal to that during the civil war. It
is time, therefore, that some decided stems
were taken to put stop to the taking Of
life in this matter.

Well said by Gov. John A. johnson, OF
Minnesota: Il am one who is unouali-
hedly opposed to the surrender by the
States OF any authority which they now
have. It seems to me that with the rail-
roads responsible only to a central admin
istrative body, the rights of the States in
control of their State railroad business
would be entirely abolished or rendered
nugatory."

The Raleigh (M. CO. Times comes out
pretty flat-footed for prohibition when it
says: at has been the cry of those favor
ing the selling of whisky that prohibition
does not prohibit. Laws Furnishing men
for committing murder do not prohibit, but
there are none who will say that we should
repeal the laws Furnishing the guilty ones
for this crime. Whether prohibition pro-
hibits or not, neither the city nor the State
has the moral right to allow the deadly
poison to be sold.''

HISTORY OF ENGLISH NOVEL.
{ (EdWin Markham In Success Maga-
zina"l

/ NLu III MdThHdln III ouCCGSS MdSd-
zine")
The genesis of the novel of the
social question, of which the labor
and capital novel is one aspect, in
wolves a sketch of the whole history
of the English novel.
| Following Sidney's Arcadia" in
the sixteenth century and Bunyan's
Pilgrims Progress in the seven
teenth and Robinson Crusoe" in the
| early eighteenth, we come upon a
new variety of novel-the novel of
manners, rejecting the customs and
speech of the age. Richardson's S
I Pamela" and "Clarissa Harlowe"
lead the long train.
Historical fiction swan into our
ken in. the gallant fleet Of the thirty
two "Waverley Novels" Here ro-
nance and adventure are in full sail.
Occupied with pomp and pageant,
with the purely emotional, the histor-
ical novel of this time allows it's
teachings to be merely incidental;
perhaps the best of all ways of teach
ing, if the people ring true and the
situations square with ethics.
About the beginning of the Victor
ian era swept in the novel Of street
and trade and lub-pre-eminently
the novel of city and town. Here
social scenes and social themes are
woven in with stories of home and
the common way; all rejecting the
life of this period of England's great
est material prosperity. Dickens
takes for his material the middle
classes and the off-scouring of socie-
ty. Thackeray chooses the upper
classes and their servants and hang
ers-on. In Hard Times" Dickens
twines story round a phase of trade
unionism; for labor troubles were in
the air of that day. His works are
crowded with characters. His ex-
aggerations and sentimentalities are
palpable; but his compassion for the
multitude made a deep impression
upon a reading public that had been
accustomed for years to sorrow only
over the woes of prince and page.
Thackeray was not touched by the
wrongs of the common people. He
was inclined to sneer at Dicken' s
treatment of criminals and incompe-
tents. But he had wholesome con-
tempt for snobbery and injustice, and
he helped to brush away aristocratic
pretension with laughter as Dickens
Helpeu WASH away 1hJ uotiCc Win
tears.
But it was left to the greatest
woman novelist, George Eliot, to give
the most artistic and the most
searching of the social studies of the
century With George Eliot new
strain comes into novel writing. She
| is not content to merely tell story;
she seeks for the relation between
i the life of her characters and the life
of humanity. She builds into fiction
the conflicts and questionings that
Mill and Darwin and Spencer were
voicing in economics and science and
philosophy. Evolution, heredity, en-
vironment-the new-risen doctrines
surging in the thought of the day
these gave the sense of social respon-
sibiity. The vast sympathy of the
author makes her characters intense
ly alive, and holds our interest in
their fortunes. Felix Holt, the Rad
ical,' is story involving the labor
movement One of the speeches of
Felix is SO up-to-date that it could be
printed in our newspapers as an edi-
torial against graft"
