A REACTION AGAINST ALCOHOL

1t is not unlikely that the war
and some of the measures which
some of the belligerent Govern
ments have had to take in self-de-
! Tense for the restriction or suppress
sion of the use of alcohol, especial
ly in its more potent forms, have
impressed upon more people the
value, the virtue, or the necessity
of total abstinence than all the rhet-
ORIG and all the too often romantic
statistics of the prohibitionists,
from Neal Dow to the Anti-Saloon
League and the robustious Captain
Hobson. Whatever backslidings a
long peace may bring to the Rus
sian mujik, suddenly cut off from
his one wretched and false 'conso-
lation,' the great increase in Rus
sian savings bank deposits in a year
of hard times is a most persuasive
argument for total abstinence. 1t is
addressed to the pocket-a more
sensitive organ in a good many of
us than the conscience.
1t is true that millions of persons
in the United States drink in mod
Grafton, combining themselves to
beer or light wines, and many per-
sons can afford to drink, though
they are seldom the ones who spend
the most in devotion to Thirst. 1t
is true, too, We think, that both in
this country and Cmada the quick
ening of prohibition activity and the
enlargement of dry territory, how
ever naturally inspired by the Euro
pean inhibitions, are a misinterpre-
tation of the essential question. A
reaction against alcohol is going on.
1t is partly social, partly scientific.
partly moral, partly and most pow
erfully economic. Young men,

their athletics from excess. see great
railroad and other corporations ban
ishing drinking men from employ
ment. They see that no man is
trusted or can long keep his post
who has passion, or even spo-
radio weakness, for alcohol. They
see the working world, in this age
of machinery. high pressure and fe-
rocious competition, compelling So

be dropped. 1t is the unforgivable
business sin.
Then there is the waste, the loss,
the unnecessary expenditure when
the necessary cost of living Is so ex-
orbitant. A prudent man says: 81

poets. I'll save my money. I'll

No high philosophy. but sound
one, understandable of every man
who has his bread and butter to

society has been founded which will
deal solely with the economic side

LabOrerS In Service Depart.

When The New Ordinance
Goes Into Effect

The sprinkling of East Gambler
and North Main streets, the cost to be
assessed on property owners accord
ing to foot frontage, was decided on
at the regular meeting of the city
council Monday evening, when the
ordinance was passed, after some
slight discussion.
Councilman Salisbury, acting for
Public Service Director White, in.
formed council that work on the con-
struction Of the west end dyke would
be started within ter days.
A petition of property owners for
placing street light at the corner of
Coshocton avenue and Chestnut street
was referred to the light committee.
The ordinance fixing compensation
for laborers employed by the service
and safety departments at 20 cents
per hour was defeated on request of
its sponsor, and new ordinance in
trOduced containing the same proyis-
ions, with the exception of being ap-
plicable only to the service depart
ment. The latter ordinance was, on
suspension of the rules, carried
through to its third reading and
passed.
The sidewalk committee reported
favorably on the construction of
sidewalk on the west side of South
Main street in front of the New Knox
National bank and PARIS shoe store.
Several Braddock street citizens
were present to inquire into the stat
us of their sewer proposition and
were informed that the resolution of
necessity, introduced several months
ago, had slumbered In the finance
committee after receiving one read
ing, but that new resolution would
be presented at the next regular meet
ing Of council.

a mausoleum proposition In which he
becomes the agent of the city in the
construction thereof, addressed coun.
ell, as did Mr.. George p. Morgan. The
remarks were opposite in viewpoint
and the debate will be carried on next
week at the regular meeting.
