TEETOTAL MOVEMENT
POPULAR IN RUSSIA

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
Manchester. Dec. 15-Writing of the
popularity of the teetotal movement in
Russia, an Englishman in Moscow
says in Q letter to Manchester firm
which he represents there:
AT the present moment, it is i'm
possible for anybody in Russia, wheth-
er rich or poor, to obtain in any place
whatever anything in the form of al
cohol, unless at a druggists with n
doctors prescription. All the govern
ment vodka shops have been closed
since the beginning of the war, and
now all manner of wine shops are
closed. Even restaurants and hotels
are forbidden to sell alcoholic drinks.
The strange thing about it all is that
nobody Is grumbling and everybody
is pleased. 1t is acclaimed on all
sides-only the Russian peasant does
not know what to do with his money
THE change that teetotalism has
produced in the Russian village. often
so remote from the outside world, is
wonderful. Children. for instance.
are being clothed in way never
dreamt of before. warmly and gener-
ously.
Government vodka shops at least,
are closed forever in Russia. That
much has been decided on now. owing
to the pressure of public opinion.
Their business is dissolved. AS a sub
stitute, 1t is proposed to establish a
government monopoly Of sugar, in or
der that the poor may have cheap
supply. Heretofore, it has been out Of
their reach"

| don't believe that your friends will
agree with you in the proposition,
that you will go in a small crowd

Some admire you for your fight
on Catholicism; some for your stand
on the Foreign Mission question;
some for your beautiful History of
France; some for what you accom-
plished in Congress; some for your
stand on political questions; and so
on. Taken as a whole, you have
made a success, if not in politics, at,
the bar, in the forum, and with the
pen. Either of which has been the
unaccomplished ambition Of thous-
ands, even in your own day and time.
