THE DRINK HABIT WANING.

Discerning persons have a good right
to their opinion that the fight against
prohibition is a fight for cause al
ready lost. Not only that, but those
who have given the matter attention
have reason to believe that the drink
habit is waning, even in localities where
prohibition does not prevail These
propositions are discussed in an inter-
esttng fashion in the November Cen
fury in an article by DR.. Henry Smith
Williams, entitled THE Advance of the
Water Wagon" It is, in part, as fol-
lows:
Not long ago one Of my friends
about to start on a fishing trip into
the mountains Of North Carolina, Of
fered to bring me some photographs of
the Illicit stills with which the region
is supposed to abound, and which he
had often seen on other trips a few
years before. When he returned, how
ever. he not only failed to bring the
promised photographs, but he had an
astonishing report to make on the SEEM
ing change in public sentiment that had
taken place during the last half dec
ade.
Formerly there had been no difficulty
in discovering the Illicit stills, provided
their owners were sure that one was
in no wise connected with the govern
ment revenue service. Now no stills
were to be found. Doubtless they yet
exist, but seemingly in no such num-
bers as of old
But more notable than the mere
paucity of distilleries seemed the senti-
ment of the people on the subject,
tacit rather than expressed. For gener-
atoms this had been their most init
mate point of contract with the outer
world. In years gone by it was moth
ing at all unusual, on noting the abb
sence of a citizen of recognized stand
ing in the community, to be told that
he had ''gone away for awhile which
meant that he was Serving time for
illicit distilling. Otherwise lava biding
honest, self-respecting people, they en-
phatically did not regard this as any
thing of which to be ashamed. They
could not see why they had not quite
as much right to ferment grain and
distil alcohol from it as to raise the
grain itself. But now, while little was
said, it seemed obvious that the senti-
ment was changing. The leading citi-
zens were not away" and there SEEM
ed growing recognition that the ques-
ton Of distilling liquors had aspects not
formerly admitted.
This individual observation TALES
with the well known fact of the Off
cial spread, SO to say. of the temper
ance movement throughout the south.
as shown by the passage within the
last three years of prohibitory laws
forbidding the sale of liquor in Geor-
gia. Alabama, North Carolina, Missis-
sippi and Tennessee.
When we consider, moreover, that
