The Saloon and Social Evil.

In the w. C. T. u. literature, we find
the report of the aggressive agitation
and effort of that worthy organization
in Cook County, Illinois, 10 secure an
enforcement of the law relating to the
social evil in Chicago. The mayor OF
that city appointed a commission
to investigate and report on the sit.
uatton. This commission included q
number of prominent clergymen, edu-
Gators and sociologists, among then
being United States District attorney
Sims. The report of this commission
submitted to the city council shows
the startling fact that the traffic il
vice in that one city yields a yearly
revenue of s15,00O000, and demands a.
its annual toll the lives of 1000 youns
girls.
OF course the city council urges tn,
adjustment of certain vicious district
and declares for the establishing of tn
victims in honest employment. Blu
the work Of constant investigation an;
the insistent turning over of facts L
be made public ami for which the pub
lie will hold it's officials responsible

dean-elect of the Yale divinity
school, why Japan would not go TO
war with the United States. DR..
Brown has recently made a tour OF
Japan and has talked with the men
who have had to do with the moulding
of public opinion. In an address be-
fore the Yale Club of Boston, Wednes-
day night, DR.. Brown gave the reasons
why the last thing that Japan would
do would be to go to war with this
country. In brief, they are. that Jap
an has suffered the horrors of two
wars in the last 20 years; that her war
debt is equivalent to 800 per capita
Of the entire population of the coun-
try; that her tax rate is nearly one
third of the average wages of the COM
mon people, and 40 per cent of the in
come of the well-to-do; that she could
never float the bonds necessary to
get the money for a war with this
country: that Japan knows that the
United States is her best customer in
and that II she were to send her mill
tary strength to this side of the Pa
cific, Russia would pounce on Man
churia and Korea. DR.. Brown thinks
these six reasons should be sufficient
to satisfy any man of the unreason-
ableness of the talk of impending war,
and it seems to us that he might have
added that the last one of the six is
amply sufficient to deter Japan from
making any movement that would rem
der her control of the Far East sit
uation vulnerable to the Slavic bear.
Russia would welcome the opportunity
to sweep once more into the Far East,
and 1T such a time as Japan might
be occupied with the mighty power of
the Western hemisphere not only
Manchuria and Korea, but Japan her
self and China also. would be likely
to fall into the hands of the Little
Father at Saint Petersburg.
In comparison with the financial
condition of Japan, a statement just
issued by the United States treasury
department is of more than passing in
terest. Basing its figures upon an
estimated population on May l. 1911
of 93795,000, the department shows
that the per capita circulation in this
country is $34.55. On May /, there
was a general stock of money amount
ing to sS,546, 574,337. which included
1906, 936, 220, held in the treasury, and
s3,237 ,63S,117 in circulation, which
seems quite fat wallet for even
man in the easy circumstances of your
Uncle Samuel.

in Chicago, New York or any other
great city, even as we here in Maine
must continue to fight and present
facts to the people on our own great
evil The saloon and the social evil
are so intimately associated as to de-
pend largely one upon the other. Were
it not for the saloon and its curse up
on humanity. there would be immeas-
urably less of the social evil to COM
bat and UNNECESSARILY more of Cody
force with which to combat it.
The w. c. T. L. shows that the so
cial evil is repeatedly traced to the sa-
loon for its inspiration and support. It
is shown that although the liquor in
terests have vehemently asserted that
they We're opposed TO vice, the facts
prove that such reports are false; that
there are disorderly salons controlled
by the brewing companies; that brew
ing companies have recently tried to
buy disorderly saloons at a high pre-
MUM. and that the brewers furnish
beer for such places. interviewer with
and supported and abetted by the IL
quor interests, the infamous enterprise
has grown to immense proportions.
Here is one more mighty question
for the people of Maine to consider in
connection with the resubmission vote
next September With the doing away
with the law and The legalizing of such
dens of vice as every honest man or
woman knows every saloon to be. may
we not expect to find that social evils
will increase until they flourish here,
every purpose as bad as in wicked
Chicago" If disreputable character
came to a Maine city and wished to
put himself in touch with such den
of vice as he had, perhaps, been in the
habit of associating with IN some great
city like Chicago, where would he first
go for his information except to a sa-
loon? On the other hand, had such a
stranger come to Maine with boon
companions, what sort of place would
be first sought as a completion of their
would be the saloon.

Maine Gossip
Keep Your Grit.


Hang on! Cling on. No matter what
they say,
Rush on! Sing on. Things will come your
way.
Sitting down and whining never helps a
bit
Best way to get there is by keeping up
your grit.
Don't give up hoping when the ship
goes down,
Grab spar or something-just refuse to
drown.
Don't think you're dying just because
you're hit
Smile in face of danger and hang on 10
your grit.
Folks die too easy-they sort of fade
away.
Make little error, and give up in dis
may,
Kind of man that's needed is the man
with ready wit,
To laugh at pain or trouble and keep up
his grit.
