Colony for Drunkards.

New York suggests new method OF
dealing with the inebriate evil. State
and city laws await only official signi-
lures to make drunkenness penal
offense and to prescribe rules even
more strict than were those for per-
soual rectitude in Puritanic days.
The Mayor has given notice for a
public tearing on a measure which
by its terms empowers the city to es-
tabiish a Board of Inebriety to con-
sist of seven members, which shall
establish and maintain colony for
inebriates. BY detail. it provides
that whenever an arrest for intoxica-
ton has been made, the police pre-
cinct shall be reported and then the
field officers shall notify the officers
of the board who shall investigate
the character OF the offender, ascer-
tain how many persons are depend
ent upon him for support and whether
he has been arrested before. If this
is his first offenSe on record, ne may
present request for release and be
discharged If less than twelve
months have elapsed since the last
previous case of intoxication, result
ing in arrest, the subject may, on
certificate of two physicians. be CON-
mitted to the hospital, or colony. for
not less than one year nor more than
three years. Or persons may be
committed on application of relatives
to the commission OF Charities and
Correction, or on their own initia-
tive.
The measure provides that an in
ebriate shall be a person incapable of
properly conducting himself or bis
affairs, or is dangerous to .imself or
others, by reason Of habi of period
ical, frequent or constant drunken
ness, induced either by the use of al
cohol or other liquors, or of opium.
morphine, or other narcotic, or in
toxicant or Supplying substance.
1t seems to be the very general
opinion that this movement is in the
right direction; that it is the fright
full example" that should be made to
pose in the lime light for his own re-
generation. There is too much SYM
pathy wasted upon people who admit
an enemy by the mouth to steal away
his brains. There is too much pet
ting and pampering the poor fellow
who becomes so accustomed to re-
straint of leading strings. as to await
the hand of some sympathetic rela-
tive or friend to keep him in the
pathway of sobriety. There is toe
much of demand for the "pacifica.
ton" that an unruly child learns to
expect from the hands of an indul-
gent parent. All methods for refor.
nation should be tempered with
enough brute force" to relieve it oil

duces an inclination to be coaxed tG

into fine shape, and is riding stronger
than at any time this season. 1t looks
