DRUNKENNESS A DISEASE

Drunkenness is being recognized
not as a crime, but as a disease.
A bill has recently been introduced
in the New York assembly providing
means for the proper treatment OF
this disease by establishing hospitals
of inebriety.
These institutions are to be indi-
rectly under the control of city
boards of five members, who will pay
particular heed to the first offender.
Instead of the first offender being
arrested and fined, or locked up in
Jail with other criminals, he will be
physically examined. alphabetically
treated and ultimately released. He
will not suffer the humiliation of be-
ing dragged into court, and whatever
can be done to put him back on the
right track, both from a scientific
and humane standpoint, will be done
at the outset.
If arrested within a year on the
same charge he will be released on
probation and kept under surveil-
lance, but if indicating the contraction
of a permanent habit will be sent at
once to the inebriates' hospital.
Here he will be confined until cured
or retained indefinitely, as the hope
lessly insane are now retained.
New York state is not the origina-
tor of this scheme. Massachusetts,
Iowa and Minnesota have already
state institutions of the same sort, but
New York seems to be going into the
matter rather more extensively, with
greater enthusiasm, and the agitation
has caused a more general and wide
spread interest.
Unquestionably the project is based
upon an intelligent and enlightened
view of the subject, both from a hui
! manitarian and scientific standpoint
and 1t can be only a question of time
when similar methods will be adopted
throughout the civilized world.

NOTHING BUT WORK.

| A young man scarcely over 80
came to the Iowa legislature this year
| from a town in an old Dutch settle
ment in the northern part of that
state.
Five years ago that young man was
laborer on his fathers farm. To-
day he is a successful practicing
lawyer, with one of the biggest prac-
tees in that section. His father was
an immigrant to this country from
Holland, and until five years ago this
boy titled the acres on his fathers
farm.
But he conserved his mind and i'm
proved his time under the lamp light
in the old farm kitchen. He studied
law through correspondence
course. During the summers he
couldn't study much and do justice
to his job.
But in the course of three or four
years he had mastered the intricacies
and personal relations, and all the
| other branches. He passed, with his
self-education, one of the best law ex-
| aminations ever turned into an Iowa
examiner He moved to town, and
went into an abstract office, and
hung out a sign saying that here was
&c. Klay," lawyer. He Joined the
town chess club, incidentally, and
played tennis
Other lawyers used to laugh at
some of his pleas, and the chess ex-
perts to consider him rather small
game, while any college youth home
for vacation for the summer could
wipe the courts with him at tennis.
But he kept on plugging.
Now the lawyers don't laugh at
him when they're conducting a case
against him, nor the politicians when
he is running for office, nor yet the
chess and tennis players, when he is
on the other side of the board or the
net. He's come into his own.
He has introduced into the legisla-
ture a dozen measures which have
passed, and carried one bill by the
force of his argument against a hos
tile force, and already he Is being
mentioned for a congressional nomi-
nation two or four years hence.
Here is a man who has made use
of the mind and hands the Almighty
gave him-who has not dissipated his
talents-who has cultivated every one
of them as the modern conservation
lists would have us cultivate our land.
So he's become a success.
All this may seem trite and COM
monplace enough. There's a lesson
of the same sort in every community.
But that's the lesson that is hard to
get through the head of the modern
youth-that there is no rut, that
there is no luck that opportunity is
word that should be spelt "univer-
SAL" that every man is his own
maker the arbiter of his own fate,
and that, if he will take himself into
his own hands and mold himself, he
will be what God Almighty intended
him-a whole man.

an average household is as unsuited TO
the frail powers of woman as build
ing the Panama canal.
Washing has broken down more fe-
male constitutions than any known oc-
cupation of the sex.
Yet. there is nothing disgraceful
about washing dirty clothes. That is
not why women hate it. They dread
washing because it kills them. There
are more martyrs at the washtubs to-
day than heather Rome ever baited
! in a century of arenas.
Washing is drudgery. Man ever
the stronger and more favored, cor
daily permitted this duty to devolve
upon his helpmate. 1t began back in
the days when there wasn't much
washing to do and things didn't get
dirty so rapidly. Urged by the die
tates Of love and her instinct of clean
illness, she undertook it with conf
dence. Now it is bondage.
AS time went on the demands of
ever-developing civilization and-let
| the truth be told-woman's own blind
ambition for adornment and display
have fed the washday bogie until it is
monster of such proportions that 1T
would destroy her. Today half the
women that live are physically incap-
able of undertaking to keep the family
linen clean week in and week out.
Long hours in the shop and mill are
bliss as compared with the washtub
slavery.
And of peculiar irony is the fact
that so many women are expected to
cook and sweep and raise a house
| full of children in addition to doing
the washing. Compared to such a
womans lot that of the professional
washerwoman is to be envied. The
professional washerwoman has only to
wash, and not Thousand and one
other things to do besides. OF course
the professional washerwoman may
have a family of her own to cook and
mend and sweep for when she is not
washing for others. God pity that
woman!
| Man is just about waking up to the
situation. Having at his leisure in
vented labor-saving machines for
everything else, he is at this late day
toying with devices to rob washing
of it's medieval crudities and hellish
oppression. Speed the day.
In the meantime, God loves the
man who helps his wife to do the
washing.

SEEK GREATER APPLE MARKET

Owing to the many thousands of
bcres of Washington land which is be-
afHe planted to apples this year, there
may be suspicion in the minds of
many that apple growing is a "craze"
chat will soon result in a glut of the
market with this fruit, and a conse-
1quent loss to the growers.
Were the markets of the state to
ne confined to its own borders there
might be some ground for such a fear,
nut with the buyers of the world ready
10 take Washington apples. if every
suitable acre of land in the state could
ne growing apples, there still might be
4 market.
AS a matter of fact few Washington
growers yet appreciate the immensely
of the field that lies before them.
Practically no effort has ben made to
capture foreign markets. One COM
pany sent shipme to Europe last
Tall-perhaps as an advertising feat
,nre-and the result is that this com
pany has orders for all of the apples
Il Will be able to supply next autumn.
Apple growing in Washington is still
IN its primary stages. The results that
nave been accomplished in a short
lime are merely an indication of the
possibilities of Washington land. For
size, quality. quantity and color Wash
kng1on apples are fast taking front
rank in all markets which they reach
and by intelligent advertising there is
no reason why they should not be
commonly found in European cities
commanding the highest price of any
apples on the market
Sirens should be laid on the fact
that apples intended for foreign mar
sIets must be of the finest grade. In.

MAY TALK TO MARS

Which VIII Make the Operation

BOSTON, April 20.-If mankind

about $4,000, 900 there is no good

that as soon as July. according to-
Prof. William Henry Pickering, Har-
ward universitys celebrated astrono-
mer.
Communication with the Martians
will be made possible, Prof. Picker
ing declares, by adopting his method
of flashing messages when Mars app
proaches the earth to within $4,000
600 miles, or about 100000 miles
nearer than ever before.
Prof chickering's plan contem-
plates the use of series of mirrors
presenting a single rejecting surface
turned toward Mars and occupying
more than a quarter of mile of sur
face.
Surprising" he says, with such
signal in operation, we began a Sc
ries of flashes, cutting off the SUMS,
rays for an instant and then throw
ing on the reflection again, repeating
this at irregular intervals, forward
ing, say, the telegraph code of dots
and dashes, 1 have no doubt that,
providing there were intelligent peo-
pie on Mars, the light would at once
attract attention and would lead
eventually to an answering signal. II
we received such an answer it would
be a comparatively easy matter to es-
tablish a code and transmit, mes

SOLDIERS STRIKE-PEACE.

1t is said that the kaiser Is worried
at the spread of socialism in the Ger
man army. The iron discipline form
erly prevailing in his armies is said
to be relaxing under the increasing
discomfort of the soldiers, and priv
ates sometimes are heard openly to
complain.
This is astonishing. The model of
the soldier used to be-and is yet,
from purely military viewpoint-the
man who says, ~ do not think; l
obey!'
Socialism is a portent to the war
lords of the world, not because it is
either right or wrong on economic
questions, but because it is absolutely
and eternally right as to war.
Socialism does not believe in war
or armies-or at least not in the
armies and wars of this age.
Neither do any of us who believe in
democracy.
Democracy is the real antidote for
war. Socialists see-as do all intelli-
gent social reformers-that wars are
fought for interests, systems, dynasties
and greed, and not for the people.
When the Russian armies and those
of Japan were gripping in a death
struggle on the Marcnurfan plains,
tearing each others flesh and splitting
each others blood, the socialists of
Russia and Japan exchanged messages
of brotherhood and good will
When, the other day, the British
parliament and the German reichstag
were both considering means for lay
ing the keels of more and more
Dreadnoughts for some future strug-
gle in which Britons and Germans
were to send each other to the bottom
of the sea, the socialists in the two
bodies exchanged good wishes and
friendly toasts to universal disarma-
ment.
These reformers see what all wise
men have always seen, that there is
never any real cause for fight be-
tween the poor man of two nations.
We have had strikes of all occupa-
tons, but when this truth fully dawns
on the world we shall have the most
beneficent strike of all-the strike of
soldiers.
When the common men who are
food for powder see their real ad-
vantage, they will lay down their
arms strike hands with the common
men of the world in universal peace,
and laugh at battlef1ags and bloody
fields and the flubdub of average
heroism as we now laugh at the fool
ishness of the crusades.
AS soon as the common men of the
world become wise enough to refuse
to kill men who are really not their
enemies, war will end, the rifles will
rust in their racks, and the warships
will be melted down into pig iron for
the making of the tools of peace.
Good for the socialists of Germany,
Japan and Great Britain! They have
shown us the wise mans attitude to-
ward war. And they have shown the
real reason for the kaiser's worry at
the spread of socialism in his Wanted
host of human slaughter machines.
He is afraid they are becoming too
intelligent to be mere machines for
murder He is afraid of the universal
strike of the soldiery of the civilized
world, when men will refuse to pull
trigger or work machine guns against
other men in quarrels in which none
of the people who do the dying have
any interest in the event of the strug-
gle. And when that stdike comes we
shall be enabled sanely to take up
matters relating to our living, rather
than our dying.

along the driveways or scattered about
the grounds. The week day visitors,

the numbers who will use the park
later in the year but they are a num-
