Hence these sons of yours, in case
they should become victims of the
drinking habit, being shut out of
positions of responsibility and of pay,
will be obliged to be hewers of wood
and drawers of water, and in time
may become untitled even for that
The reason for all this is plain. No
business, no city, no cummunity can
be established on vice. You can not
develop healthy animals by propaeat-
ing disease. You can not build an
enduring house by putting in rotten
timbers You can not have a pros
porous community unless it is a moral
community. Disease physical, men
tai, moral-leads to decay and death,
not to life. You can not build up a
family that will perpetuate your name
for century unless the children are
brought up to sobriety, industry, and
economy. These are the foundations
of character and perpetuity both in
the state, the city, and the family.
You can build up the population of a
city temporarily by encouraging houses
of i'll fame. We hear it said that
merchants favor these because for the
time being it brings people and bust
ness to the city; but will any sensible
man advocate this as means of city
buildingi
Thus far we have spoken of the
boys. Girls are not in as great dan
ger, unless they are born rich, of
forming the drink habit But these
girls should have husbands; and it is
a matter of importance to the voter
whether these husbands are clean,
straight, manly men, or moral and
physical degenerates. If you think
anything of your children or your
grandchildren or the name of your
family generations hence, do every
thing you can to keep your town
dry. "-Wallace's Farmer.
