The national prohibitionist. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1907-1911, 1907-12-05

btion PARTY stands for the enactment and enforce
ment of prohibitory law, wide as the nation in its
scope, and faithfully and energetcally enforced
as any law be, when administered by its
friends and advocates. The Prohibition idea will
not be dominant until prohibitory law is as well
recognized, as definitely accepted as fact, and as
well enforced as, for example, the tariff legisla-
ton of the United States
This means that until the federal government
and the governments of the various states are in
the hands of the Prohibition party, the end is not
attained.
A year ago, the average Prohibitionist would
have read that statement with the feeling that
it spelled never" Today it will be read, all over
the nation, by hopeful, determined men who
clearly see that it is the Office and duty and within
the power of the Prohibition party to SO grasp

months hundreds of articles have appeared at
tempting to give answer
There remains, however, room for something
more in the way of careful and accurate discus
sion of the question: which will here be attempted
Let it be said at the outset that the facts are
tremendously encouraging to the Prohibitionist.
They indicate profound and wide dissatisfaction
with the license system, growing determination
on the part of the American people to get rid of
the liquor business, increasing willingness to
consider the "drink problem" a not wholly log
ical and consistent, yet very real movement of the
whole mass of the electorate toward Prohibition
On the other hand, just as clearly, the facts,
rightly studied show the impossibty of settling
the problem by the local option method and the

IMPORTANT TESTIMONY


Pronounces all Alcoholic Drinks
Poison for the Brain
New York, Nov. 2S.-(Special correspondence
Much attention is attracted here in medical c1r-
ces and among Prohibitionsts by an article con-
tributed to the current number of Golfers Weekly
by DR.. Frederick Peterson, of this city.
Dr. Peterson is recognized as of the fore
most students of nervous and mental diseases.
: He is professor of psychiatry in Columbia Uni
versty, has been president of the New York
Neurological Society and has written much upon
subjects of interest to students of mental dis
orders.
The article in Golfers bears the title "A Nerve
Specialist to His Patients" but it is really dis
cussion of the effect of alcohol upon the mind.
The editor displays framed in the middle of the
page, group of sentences supposed to represent
the radical character of the article. They read:
Alcohol is poison.
1t is claimed by some that alcohol is food.
IT so, it is poisoned food.
The daily regular of alcohol even IN
moderation often leads to chronic alcoholism.
One is poisoned less rapidly by the use of
beer than by drinking wines, gin, whisky, and
brandy.
Alcohol is one of the most common causes
OF insanity, epilepsy, paralysis, diseases OF the
liver and stomach, dropsy, and tuberculosis.
A father or mother who drinks poisons the
children born to them, that many die in in
fancy, while others grow up as idiots and cpl
leptics.
But the reader must not suppose that in glanc
ing at these he has gathered the full radicaism of
the article. Strong as they are the text more
than sustans them We find Dr. Peterson saying:
Gail physicians acknowledge that alcohol is
poison, taken in any fornl-wne, beer, hard cider,
rum whisky or patent medicines or bitters There
is question as to it's being poison. The retort
that the active principles of tea and coffee also
poisons is argument in favor of alcohol, be-
cause, while both tea and coffee when taken in
excess bring on nervous symptoms, they are in
structiveness of alcohol which overhl1s our hos
pitals, insane asylums, idiot asyums almshouses,
epieptic colonies, reformatories, and prisons with
its direct or indirect victims"
Dr. Peterson takes up the subject of the food
value of alcohol and says:
"The discussion as to whether alcohol is an
ailiment not is equally idle and evasive of the
main issue. 1t is not food like bread and but
ter, for it has venom in it. 1t is as yet an un-
decided question in the medical profession as to
ulant in sickness The general tendency is to
duce the consumption of alcohol drug in hos
pitals."
Of the standing of physicians upon the alcohol
question of the article makes the statement:
"My opinion is that among physicians them
selves there is rapidly increasing proportion of
total abstainers. This is especially noteworthy in
Europe, where physicians are the most active par
ticpants in the tremendous anti-alcohoc move
ment which is sweeping over Germany, France and
Switzerland

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
Mankato People Know How
TO Save IT.

Many Mankato people take their lives
in their hands by neglecting the kid

sible for a vast amount of suffering
suffer nor to remain in danger when
all diseases and aches and pains due
to weak kidneys can be quickly and
permanently cured by the use of Doan's
Kidney Pills. Here is the statement of
a Mankato citizen who has reclaimed
good health by the use of this remedy:
Andrew johnson. of 9l5 North Fourth
street, Mankato, Mimi, says: 81 have
been an unusually healthy man in my
time and was never sick day in my
life until | was laid up with kidney
complaint and backache. L began to

breaking in two. The pains would
come on me suddenly and knock me

crop in it's history, also that prices
will be higher than year ago. This
view is shared by Samuel Glasgow
secretary and general manager of the
Centennial Mills company of Spokane
who has just returned from an auto
mobile trip, occupying three weeks,
through the districts west and south
of Spokane. He said:
Not only will the wheat crop be
the heaviest that has ever been gather
ed in this part of the Pacific North
west, but alfalfa, oats, barley and hops
will make bumper yields. The country
has had just enough rain to bring out
the best crops, and | am sure that the
benefit viii be correspondingly as great
in the irrigated fruit districts, where

rainfall With good weather until the
crops are gathered our farmers will be
happy"

War Broke Out AfresIl
There Last Evening.
CAUSE OF THE CASUS BELL
Children's Raid on Berry Bushes Leads
to WELDING Of Slipper; This
Opened the Ball.
From THURSDAYS Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
War broke out afresh in Syria last
evening. The trouble really started
the day before, when Naiif Abdo's
children made predatory raid upon
Mrs. Sadie Bukalaes berry bushes, thus
afrording casus belli. Mrs. Bukalae
organized punitive expedition and
welded the slipper upon that portion
of the Aldo children where nature in
tended.
Yesterday the hostilities were resum-
ed upon larger scale. 1t is said that
Naiff Aldo and his friend and retainer,
Tom RAINY. met Charley Bukafae, son
| of Mrs. Bukalae, and administered q
| thrashing. 1t is said that thereupon
Charles Bukalae and his father, Mike
Bukalae, proceeded to decorate Naiff
Abdo's anatomy with black and blue
spots. Whether this was the order of
the events, or whether there were some
iother occurrences. the officers have been
unable to learn, not being very well
versed in Syrian or the sign language.
Officer Simmonds took yesterday af-
ternoon off to 90 fishing, and this may
account for the lid getting off in link
Ecomvile. AT any rate, when he return
ed at seven O'Clock in the evening he
found the inhabitants just concluding a
battle. He was tired and hungry and did
not care to listen to each separate tale
of woe. so he drove the Syrians all in
to their separate abodes and told them
to remain there until their fighting
blood had cooled off.
This morning all hands crowded
County Attorney Plymat's office and
demanded warrants for the arrest of
their enemies. Mr.. Plymat played no
favorites. Everybody was accommodate
ed A warrant was issued for Mrs.
Sadie Bukalae on the charge of hav
ing assaulted Naiff Abdo's children;
one was issued for the arrest of Mike
and Charley Bukalae on the charge of
having assaulted Naiff Aldo; and one
was issued for Naiff Aldo and Sam
RAINY on the charge of having assault
ed Charles Bukalae. The hearings were
set for this afternoon.
