The Foot and Door Trick,

In his book, Work in Great Cities"
the bishop of London writes: You
have often not only to learn but to
practice what may be described as
the foot and door trick 1t is ruina-
ton to the boot and sometimes hurts
the toe; but it consists in rapidly but
quickly passing the foot in the mo-
ment the door is opened, in order to
secure, at any rate, a few minutes
parley." AS to what may happen he
writes: After long hesitation it will
be opened by a little girl about half
foot; and then you will hear a
distant voice from the washtub in the
rear: We'll, Sally, who is it?' Then
Sally will answer at the top of her
voice: Please, mother, it's religion
You will require all your presence of
mind to cope with that" The time
came, however, when every door was
thrown wide open to welcome "our

cries, distilleries, and wholesale liquor houses,
we have greater vested interests than the
Southern shareholders held before the war.
There are, perhaps, directly and indirectly
connected with the liquor traffic, more than
two millions Of men, and the annual expen-
diture for Intoxicating drinks by the people
of the United States reaches more than one
billion two hundred millions of dollars
But this is not the most serious view Of the
case. Great as it is, the financial equation Of
the problem is but trife when compared
with the other questions involved. The sale
of inuor causes seventy-fve per cent Of all
the crime known IN our country; it is the one
constant and prolific source for pauperism,
profigacy and insanity; it destroys the very
bone and sinew Of our laboring classes; it is
the source Of the corruption Of elections; it
seeks to control, and does CONTROL legislatures
congressman, judges, United States senators,
and many newspapers; it's tentacles are fast
ened upon every factor in our public and So
cial life, and it has reached out far enough to
gather into it's Shiny folds many who minister
at the sacred desk. When we consider the
question in all Of it's tragical aspects, it is
by far the greatest issue ever known in any
land

THE JEFFERSONIAN.

leaders Of both Democratic and Republican
parties are at sea concerning an issue for the
present struggle.
Mr. Bryan said, I believe, that he thinks the
issue will be the tariff He does not really
know. Nobody knows.
The thing we do know is that the Republi-
cans are in and want to stay in, and the Dem
ocrats are out and want to get in. That is
the only real issue between these two old par
ties, however much dust they may raise about
the tariff, the labor question, and other things
around which they group themselves in their
wild bid for votes.
The question of the prohibition Of the hq-
uor traffic is larger by far than was the ques-
ton of human slavery. Our forebears did not
think so, and hence they deferred the question
of the liquor traffic, which was even then east
ing its deadly blight over all the land, and
took up the question of slavery. IF it had
not been for the precipitation Of the Civil
War, Abraham Lincoln would have been the
hero OF the Emancipation of our land from
the curse of drink. AS it was, he took the only
course that a practical statesman can pursue,
and performed the duty which lay nearest
him.
The slavery issue was great issue and de-
manded a speedy settlement. It cost the flow
er Of American manhood and untold treasure
to eradicate this foul blot from our glorious
South. If it had been a national instead Of
sectional issue, it can be scarcely doubted
that we would have had the question with us
still. It is so much easier for a man to be
philanthropist when the cost Of his philan-
thropy comes out Of the others fellows pock-
ct that the Abolition party grew rapidly at the
North while the Southern shareholders found
it difficult to embrace doctrine that was to
deprive them of their wealth and revenue.
In our present situation the liquor men and
liquor interests are not confined to any one
section Of the country. They are everywhere.
The heart of liquordom is in the great cities
and 1t thus falls out that many of the de-
scendants of the Northern Abolitionists are
dumb. For them to espouse the cause of pro-
hlbition would put them at cross purposes with
the commercial interests Of their section.
But none of these things in any wise mini
mlze the fact that the prohibition of the iq-
uor traffic is the greatest issue our land has
ever known. Roundly speaking, there are in
the United States two hundred and fifty thou

LETS SETTLE TT IN 1908. "
By DR.. J. B. Cranfll of the Associated Pro
hibition Press.

(The following survey Of the present size
and Importance of the National Prohibition
Issue graphically epitomizes the reasons why
in political strategy and irrepressible necessi-
ty, the present year affords the most timely
opportunity for the united action Of the too
long divided 100000 prohibition voters of
America.
Every volunteer in the National Issue Move
ment should aid in circulating the data Of this
article among all hopeful voters in his own
community.
The facts summarized below are a part Of
the unanswerable argument for the Immediate
organization Of every election district in the
nation.
For full and latest particulars Of the Ma
tlonal Issue Movement, write Charles r.
Jones, Chairman, 90 La Sale St., Chicago.)
Most all Of the so-called national issues that
have challenged the attention Of the American
people have been either local or sectional
This was Of course not true of the primal is
sue upon which the founders of the Republic
so widely differed. There were at the begin
ming two classes Of American statesmen. One
OF these classes, represented by Alexander
Hamilton, believed in strong centralized gov
eminent; while the other class had as their
leader, Thomas Jefferson, who champoned the
principle afterward crystallized into the doe
trine Of states rights. It is to be gravely
doubted whether this fundamental issue would
have seriously disturbed the autonomy Of the
states if it had not been for the localization
of slavery in the Southern half Of the United
States. The doctrine Of state s rights took on
new and more aggressive form when the
need arose for its application to the issue of
human slavery While the question of slav-
cry, at least in a sense, became a national is
sue, it remained in essence a sectional issue
until it was settled by the arbitrament Of war.
We have had no national issue since, ex-
cept the prohibition Of the liquor traffic.
While the old political parties have sought to
pitch their campaigns upon the tariff and other
questions, they have all in reality been fought
upon the issue that preceded and followed the
Civil War.
