En- la Sociological Review, de Lon
dres. Sc ocupa ell escritor R. nj. Mac
Ivert extensamente de este tema, tan
controvertido entire los sociologos con-
temporaneos, y especialmente los ingle-
ses. Mae Ivert seilala la contraposicion
que muchos autores aducen como fun
damento de sus estudios entire los con-
ceptos de sociedad Y de individuo su
juicio completamente err0nea En- SEN
tir del publicista ingles, no puede conce-
birse un individuo que no este integra-

tampoco cabe imaginar una sociedad
que no este formada por individuos Goa
sociados somctidos una organiza-
cion. Los dos conceptos, juicio del
ilustre tratadista, no solo no pueden
considerarse como opuestos, sino que ell
uno es indispensable para la existencia
del otro.
La erronea oposici0n ha dado vida
numerosas y falsas concepciones acerca
de la esenca de la sociedad, entire las
cuales hay algunas que parangonan d
la sociedad con un organismo. Partien-
do del concepto de que la sociedad es

guiendo su eXamen, pone de manifesto
que algunas escuelas. defendiendo su

sociedad es mas grande que la suma de
los individuos de que esta compuesta, y
4 este prop0sito menciona el parecer
del eminente soci6logo frances Emilio

SALOON THE STATES WORST EN-
EMv

ENVY.
(By JUDGE A. 3. WATKINS of Texas)
Why does the state so abnor the sa-
loon on election day? Absolutely one
would think it no worse to sell whisky
at one time than at another. 1t knows
only too well that this right of free
men and the sale of drink are at hope
less war; that the liquor traffic has al
ways been the sworn enemy of the
honest ballot; that to furnish the voter
with whisky would be like arming a
madman. If the saloon be the inno-
cent and harmless thing its advocates
claim, why not unchain it on cleo
ton day?
But in spite of these and every 9TH
;ssaeeasd Tie u sas
gravest menace to an honest vote. Not
content with taking its place in soci.
ETY. as business simply, it is ambi.
tious to become ruler.
Who ever heard of a drug store
ticket at an election? Who ever heard
of the family groceries, or the shoe
trade claiming the right to elect their
officers?
And yet one hardly need inquire
for any man that ever lived in a sa.
loon-ridden county or city that has
not heard of or voted for or against
the saloon ticket"
1t is always there. And from con-
stable to governor those lords of vice
demand that society shall bow tc
them. Many have wondered at the
cause and asked why simple busi
ness should not be satisfied to be a
business simply. But the answer is
not far OF hard to find.
The saloon seeks the election OF
candidates who are willing or pledged
to do it's bidding. 1t is needless for
another business, for it follows the
law. 1t is necessary for the saloon
for it defies the law.

CANCER OF SOCIAL VICE.

A large number Of cities are at hit
time graphing with the cancer OF 80
cial vice. There is one thing we may
write on the first page of the record o!
this war: Always there will be a peri,
to woman so long as society is IL
league with the saloon. The back dool
of the saloon is the front door Of the
brothel, or leads to the home Of purity
where the brothel will find its victim

PUT CHILDREN IN RIGHT PATH.

Is there any investment of time,
energy, talents, that will count fol
more than the work with the chill
dren? IF you write the law of total
abstinence on the hearts Of the chill
dren," says Congressman Hobson,
they will see to it that it is written
on the statute books Of the state and
the nation"
This is why the w. c. T. U. gives sc
much time and thought to teaching
children the nature and effects OF
alcohol.

Gently announced that his place was
for sale at bargain. MY reason" he
said, for quitting the liquor trade is
not that am old or rich, or troubled
by my conscience. simply have de-
cided to get out while the getting is
good, for l believe that can read the
handwriting on the wall. l believe
that the finish of the booze business in
this country is in sight, and ] prefer
to step from under before the roof
falls in.
II would not undertake to say when
nationwide prohibition is going to ar
rive, but 1t is coming, as sure as fate,
and 1t is not many years away. 1t is
coming, not so much as result OF
5everish and hysterical agitation, but
as result of majority Of the voters
OF the country making up their minds
that boozing is a criminal waste of
time and money, and booze a nuisance
and dangerous drug"
He goes on to say that "drunkards
there are and will be 30 long as there
is booze to be had, and they are panic
stricken at the suggestion that coun-
try-wide prohibition may prevail. But
the self-respecting and social drink
,ers, the real dependence Of the liquor
traffic, are preparing to Danish booze.
And I don't know but everyone will
be glad Of it, in the long run. I've
never been proud Of being a saloon
keeper, and I don't believe any other
self-respecting man can be. We jolly
ourselves along with the argument
that it is legitimate, recognized by the
national government, the state, the
county and the city, but we know in
our hearts that 1t is a rotten business.
Anyhow, good or bad, l am going
to get out of 1t before the fireworks
begin, and I'd advise every other man
with money invested in it to do the
same. John Barleycorn has had his
day"
