DRUGGISTS ON PROHIBITION.
In a paper read before the section
education on legislation of the Ameri-
can Pharmaoeut tical Association at the
meeting In Hot Springs, Ark,
prominent druggist urges all members
of his profession to observe both letter
and spirit of all prohibition laws.
The present temperance advance, he
says is not temporary wave" but a
world movement and bound to sue
ceed, because 1t is based upon the
fact that the liquor traffic is response
BILE for large proportion of the dis
ease, poverty and crime. With prohi.
bition there comes to the druggist a
temptation to abuse his privilege to
sell liquor and the profession is still
more dishonored in the public mind
by those sellers of liquor who use a
socalled drugstore as "blind". E.
Therefore, for the honor and the
safety of the profession. this writer
calls upon all druggists and organiza-
tions of druggists not only to obey
the law to the letter, but TO ally them
selves with the authorities and insist
upon law enforcement and if 1t be
found, as he thinks possible, that
liquor selling must be taken out of
the hands of druggists altogether,
then pharmacists should themselves
take the initiative, stand sponsor
for such law and get public credit
for defending their professional in
tegrity." Such utterances from man
who declares himself not personally a
prohibitionist or even a total abst Amer,
certainly points to change in the
business mans attitude toward prohi.
bition. Union Signal.
Seventy saloonkeepers in Dubuque,
la have abandoned the traffic fearing
the effects of the recent decision Of
Judge Smith MCPHERSON of the United
States supreme court in which he de-
olared the sale of liquor illegal. May
God hasten the day when twenty time,
seventy saloonkeepers will abandon tn,
traffic, fearing the effect of other right
eous decisions yet to be made.
