STAY AWAY FROM SALOONS.
Frequenter of Dram shop Soon Dis

More and more the economic argu-
ment is influencing voters to abolish
the saloon. The man who frequents
the saloon is not so strong in body nor
Intellectually so keen, nor profession
ally or industrially so efficient as the
man who does not, writes Ferdinand
Iglehart, in American Review of Re-
views. A man who has no scruples
On the subject, but has good common
sense, soon discovers that he is handi-
capped in the heated competition Of
life when he becomes a patron of the
saloon.
The New York Central, the Lacka-
wanna, the Pennsylvania, the Balti-
more & Ohio, the Wabash, the Rock
Island, the Great Northern, and other
railroad systems have adopted the
following rule: "The use of intOXi-
cants by employees, while on duty, is
prohibited. Their habitual use, or the
frequenting of places where they are
sold, is sufficient cause for dismissal"
The Michigan. state law will not per-
to have anything to do with the run
ming of trains. The premium on tenn
perance in railroad circles is so great
that $4,000 employees of the Northwest
ern railroad signed pledge of total
abstinence at one time.
Business houses generally discrim-
mate against the drinker in the
employment of men. The United
States Commissioner Of Labor sent q
note of inquiry to 1900 concerns en-
ploying labor; 1888 of them respond
ed that they took the drink question
very much into account in hiring men,
and that they had to be the more care
full in selecting responsible help be-
cause the law held them liable for in
juries caused by accident. The young
man of ambition and hope who wants
to get into good place and succeed
in it knows full well that he must stay
away from the saloon. This business
argument sends hundreds OF thou
sands of employees into the ranks Of
those who are fighting the traffic.
The people paid last year billion
dollars for intoxicating drink, $685.
100000 more than for all the neces-
saries Of life, and it is a protest
against this colossal material waste
and a desire to divert some of
the drink money to better uses that
has prompted many to vote nO-license
in the campaigns. The billion dollars
paid over the counter for drink for
the year is only about half of the
material damage the traffic causes, re-
curing institutions to be maintained
by the public.
The large amounts of money paid
into the treasures of states and NUM-
cipalities by the liquordealers are
no compensation for the material as
well as the moral waste in the com
munity, and while there are many
friends of law and order who vote for
license because they think the saloon
ought to be made to pay part of the
price. Of its public injury, the people
are getting to believe more and more
each year that the damage of the sa-
loon is too great, and they are unwil-
ling to tolerate it and are voting no"
on the proposition to permit it.

LIQUOR PROBLEM IN FRANCE.
Brings Into Existence Anti-Alcohoi
Party in Chamber of Deputies
Cause Is Popular.

In France-where many people be-
lieve that there is no drunkenness
and no liquor problem-the intemper-
ance of the nation has brought into
existence an anti-liquor group in the
chamber of deputies. M. Joseph
Reinach, the leader of the party, made
his first speech in that capacity just
recently. He insisted that the strug-
gle against alcoholism is for the coun-
try and the race a question Of life or
death; of physical and intellectual
health or of irretrievable decadence.
I'VE should even indemnify the alb
sinthe manufacturers if it must be
So" he declared. France is rich
enough to pay for her salvation"
Dealing with the question of the limit
alton of public houses, NJ. ReinSch ex-
planned that the party's bill aims at
the prohibition of the opening of
places strictly defined Gentlemen"
he said, Il do not believe at all that
our cause is an unpopular one. Let
us take the offensive"
Continuing his speech, NJ Reinach
paid a tribute to Mr.. John Burns, the
British labor member. He said: 81
had the honor a short time ago of
talking with an English ex-workman,
now member of parliament, and
one Of the kings ministers. The
immense popularity of Mr.. John Burns
among, the laboring classes across the
channel is due in large measure to
the obstinate struggle which he has
pursued for 80 years, and which in
office he has not ceased to pursue,
against alcohol He spoke to me of
his campaign against the poison which
enervates when it does not brutalize,
which slowly degrades when it does
not Immediately destroy. He was
telling me of the important results
that had been obtained, especially at
Liverpool, by the reduction in the
number of licensed houses; and he
concluded with these words: Tt is es-
pecially to worknen that it is true to

Popular Uprising Against Liquor
Curse Only Points to COMING Events.

Popular Uprising Against Liquor
Curse Only Points to Coming Events.
The liquor traffic has been hit by
the popular uprising of the past two
years.
The people are. happy, and some have
declared that no party movement
would ever be needed to finally win
the fight
What is the use of systematic po-
litical organization to drive King Rum
out of businessg' is the query.
The Prohibitionist's answer is ready
quick as a FASH "All the battles which
have driven liquor out of any commu-
nifty have beer won by exactly such
political organization as we have been
advocating for forty years" replies
Hon. Aaron S. Watkins, president of
Asbury college, and candidate for vice
president of the United States on the
Prohibition ticket in 1908. THE only
trouble" he declares. lis that in al
most every case these organizations
have quit business the day after cleo
ton, while the license politicians and
the license parties have been left a
clear field to handicap and nullify the
Prohibition law so hardly Won"
The enforcement of Prohibition by
officials Indifferent or hostile to the
principle has so far reduced to the
minimum that success and benefit
which would have been and will yet
be achieved by officials in office backed
by a party pledge in state and nation
to the Advancement of the great re-
form.
A Billion Dollar Saving Possible In
stead of a Paltry $166,0o0,ooo.
When Prohibitionists are elected in
city, state and nation to enforce the
prohibitory legislation now on the
statute books and rapidly being enact
ed the present figures showing millions
saved to the people by the abolition
of the liquor traffic will appear alb
surdly small by the side of the results
which are possible through honest en-
forcement and the cooperation of I'm
Gle Sam.
That this is true is evident at a
glance to any one who will note the
total liquor bill of the nation and the
number now living in dry territory.
In 1907 the total drink bill of the Unit
ed States was $2275.07O,S5T. There
are now nearly 100000 people living
in dry territory out of an approximate
100000 people in the whole land.
Grant for moment that the cOnsump-
ton of liquor among the people now
under prohibitory law was always
much smaller than among the people
largely crowded in the great cities still
under license. Even at that the drink
bill of these 40,0Q0,000 people would
easily be % per cent of the total of the
whole nation.
For that reason it is certain that the
saving to the people in territory now
dry should be at least $J00,000,000 a
year and that instead of a trife over
$166,000,000 saved to the people in
two years time Prohibition strictly en-
forced by a Prohibition party would
mean a billion dollars more in the
pockets of the masses.
There are many indications that the
people are demanding such Il consum-
nation, and the ProhibitionistS. cele-
brating in September. 1909, the fortieth
anniversary of the commencement of
their agitation, are looking optimistical-
~ forward to this hour which they
see approaching.

Salt Keeps Out the Corn Weevil.
Dozens of replies have been received
to the inquiry made a month since for
a plan for keeping weevils out of corn
a great majority of these recommend
common salt. There must be something
in it, from the number of people who
testify in its behalf. S. Bagnell, of
Hankinson, says: ITO keep weevils out
of corn, put about one-half bushel OF
coarse salt to every 100 bushels when
YOU throw the corn in the crib. L
have tried this for forty years, and it
has never failed"
J. E. Lamb, of Union Church, says:
can effective remedy that 1 have used
for years with perfect success is: Take
fine salt; thoroughly mix it through the
corn when cribbing = no particular
amount, possibly 500 pounds to 1000
bushels. This does not injure the corn,
but, on the other hand, makes it more
palatable for the stock. Horses AMI,
mules relish the shuck when treated in
this manner Rats and mice do not dam
age it so much when salt is used.
/ Possibly it is not pleasant to their
eres'
/ j. NJ. Thompson, of Waynesboro, says:
/ My remedy is to gather the corn as
soon as it will keep in the crib; gather
without slip-shucking, and pack as tight
! " as possible. The weevil fly lays eggs
| in the end of the ear, and this seems to
kill them. I have used this plan for
years, and have but little trouble in
keeping my corr"
