Your correspondent made trip to

other than the home of either and
compelled to sober up. This young
man, when in his sober senses, is re-
fined gentleman and very moral man,
but while under the influence Of the
internal stun dispensed by a dram
seller Tin this case not the proprietor
Of the saloon from which the young
man was dragged, but a drug store
near by. While passing along the
sidewalk gave vent to oath upon oath
and other boistrous and unbecoming
language. I call attention to this fact
for the purpose of directing the public
mind to the keeper of a drug store
who will disgrace his business by al
lowing enough Of such stuff to go over
his counter, for the sake of the paltry
profit there is in 1t for him, to get
man drunk and keep him in that state
for a number of days In succession.
While his neighbor the saloon man re-
fuses under the conditions to let him
have 1t. do not wish 1t understood
that I am taking up an argument in
favor Of the saloon and against the
drug store. Not so, but II such cases
as referred to above Is to be carried
on through the medium of the drug
gist, then the drug store too should be
branded as common enemy, detri-
mental to the interests of the people
and should be treated as such, either
In local option or prohibition move.
The victim of this habit received It
as an heritage and 7 am informed has
n desire to refrain from 1t, but thinks
he Is unable to do so. Should not the
people put 1t out of the reach Of such
men? In fancy, I hear the voice Of
the young wife and mother who says
while there Is life there is hope, say,
"Oh. help me, help me save my hus-
band from a drunkard's fate.
