wine and spirit interests Of the Pa
cihc Coast. which was 10 have been
held in San Francisco, May 10, has

against prohibition and in favor OF the
proper regulation OF the liquor bust

Mr. Moroney has been an ardent
advocate Of model license since the
national organization formulated re-
strictive laws and he is convinced
that all that is required to preserve
the wine and spirit interests OF the
Coast is united action on the part o'
the trade in favor OF all measures thai
will guarantee obedience to law and
respect for public sentiment
At the convention the national bod,
will be represented by Capt D, NJ

ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN
Not Blood Disease-cured by Oil of
Wintersreen Compound.

For many years eczema was supposed
to be a blood disease and was enron
eously treated as such. but now the
best authorities agree that eczema is
only q skin disease and must be cured
through the skin. The eminent skin
specialist. DR.. ID. d. Dennis. first dis
covered the eczema germ and his dis
covery was quickly taken up in both
Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin. DR.. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thymol.
glycerine. etc. The remedy Is a liquid,
not a mere salve. hence 1t sinks right
into the pores Of the skin. Washing
with this OIL Of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away at once;
soon the scales drop away and the dis
ease disappears. The prescription has
now been used so long as to have
proven its absolute merit and we do

PATTERSON
ON PROHIBITION
Governor Of Tennessee 0ppOS.
0S Passages Of Act by
State Legislature

In connection with the prohibition
agitation in the South. the attitude of
Governor Patterson. Of Tennessee. is
Interesting as one Of the few governors
in the South who oppose prohibition.
In a recent message to the Tennessee
Legislature he said:
Prohibition is fundamentally and
profoundly wrong as a governmental
policy, and in a country where the
largest measure Of freedom of action is
accorded the individual, it becomes in
tolerable.
For a State, through its lawmakine
power, to attempt 10 control what the
people shall eat and drink and wear
except to see that they are protected
from imposition-is tyranny and not
liberty.
IAN such Weddings and vexatious
laws ceased in England with the
growth Of constitutional government
and when the rights of man were firm
~ established upon the basis of indi-
vidual liberty and conscience.
They passed in our country wher
intolerance and early fanaticism gave
way to advancing religious freedom

ate use, ruin themselves?
shall we so legislate that a man
who uses il moderately and without
injury TO himself or others. shall be
wholly deprived of it's use, because an
other uses 1t immoderately?
"Shall the sick not use IL If the
physician prescribes It. because some
who are well abuse ~
shall its Manufacture and sale be
wholly forbidden by law without re-
gard to its proper use or abuse?
"To do so is both unwise and de-
strutive.
1.-THE use or non-use of liquor should
be left to the individual
I'm my conception of popular gov
eminent and the relation of the in
dividual to society It Is just as much
an invasion OF personal liberty TO at
tempt by law to forbid its use as It is
by law to forbid the use Of anything
else.
Character in the individual is not
made by prohibition or the withdraw
ing of temptation, but by resistance TO
temptation. Tho scheme of God in the
redemption OF man has not been to
take from him temptation. but TO leave
him free to resist. and as he resists,
50 viii be his reward.
Legislation by States.
I'm enacting laws by the State for
the suppression of the liquor traffic
certain things must be kept in mind
i'm order 10 know how far such laws
may be effective.
The state Is one Of a number of
states, and not one can legislate con-
trary 20 the constitution Of the
United states or the Interpretation
which the courts have made of that
instrument
'rhe state can by law forbid the
manufacture and sale Of liquor within
her borders. but the state cannot pre-
vent its manufacture or sale In any
other state. nor can IL prevent the
shipment Of liquor in unlimited duanti-
ties from any other state into the state
of Tennessee.
under the Interstate Commerce
clause of the Constitution Of the United
states, and its Interpretation by the
courts, liquor is recognized as "A com
modify of trade. just as -four, clothing.
shoes or any other article.
THE state is as powerless to pre-
vent shipment of liquor to the people
of Tennessee as it is TO prevent the
shipment of any other commodity
which may enter into Interstate trade.
1T follows therefore that, until the
United states Government itself for
bids the manufacture and sale of
liquor, or refuses 10 allow its ship
ment to State. il is not possible to
have a prohibition law. Those who
claim the contrary either do not know
better. or. knowing better, deceive the
people

and the Constitution Of our country
was framed Tor a lf-governing people
who reserved TO themselves and guar
anteed to one another the rights and
privileges OF freemcn.
But the attempt has been made by
prohibitory laws relating to drink. to
forbid the manufacture or sale Of
liquor
"rhe claim is made that the use Of
liquor produces drunkenness. vice
and crime, and that public morals. the
welfare Of the individual and Of the
state would be best conserved by its
total abolition.
1t is also said that because of the
appalling consequences which often fol-

legislation ON the subject is TO be diff

desirable and necessary.
While having great respect for this

tempt by legislation to abolish the
manufacture and sale of LIQUOR is
abortive, IN that il does not accomplish
