BOOZE POWER WILL
SEAL IT'S OWN DOOM.

1t is not the increased danger OF
alcoholism that has been driving now
one State and now another, now one
town and now another county to pro-
hibition. 1t is not the degeneration
of the quality of our intoxicants; it Is
not their multiplied abuse; it is not
the spread of the drink appetite.
These are not the new and first rea-
sons for the expansion Of tie prohib.-
tiol sentiment among the people. Far
from it.
The beers of today are milder; the
wh;skies are many times superior,
though bad enough, to the old fusel-oil
fcrty-rod of commerce back in the six e.
ties.
Temperance has developed under
industrial and economic influences in
wonderful fashion, and the value Of
total abstenance as instilled by the
moral influences at work in the past
two decades has been generally ac-
knowledged by the people. Drunken
ness has become quite uncommon. So
ciety will not stand for it as it form
erly did. The alcoholic menace has
been enormously diminished.
Then why in heavens name are the
states and counties and cities and
towns falling over themselves in their
efforts to adopt prohibition.
We can tell you. They seek to pro-
hibit, not so much alcohol as the NEIL
ace of the booze power in politics.
Wherever the liquor interests have
seized political power they have
abused that power and have thus
sealed their own doom. The prohibi-
tionists of the country today are not
all total abstainers, not by a great
many, but all are of class of Amer
leans who object to the liquor inter
ests as power in the management Of
the government.
Those who still set store by their
personal liberties may insure the CON-
tinuance Of that liberty by casting
this hcoze power out of politics and
the booze With it, of course.

Gone But not Forgotten

Lakeland Telegram: What has be-
come of Claude L'Engle? Once the
most talked-about and aggressive
man in Florida Journalism, he has
dropped from public view completely.
Badly crippled with rheumatism, he
was largely deprived Of his physical
activity, but his vigorous mind was
unimpaired, and it was not supposed
that he would throw away the trench
ant pen that made him so many
friends and enemies in Florida. Claude

Editor Leach of the Leesburg Com

about time for Florida to restore to
the newspapers of the State the privi-
lege Of exchanging advertising space
for railroad mileage within the
State?" He thinks a denial Of this
right is ''class legislation of the most
malignant sort" May be, possibly is,
but since that law went into effect and
we began to exchange this same ad-
.vertising space for real money, many
.of US have lost interest in the ethics
.of the law. The old system of ex-
changing space for potatoes, grits,
grindstones, lumber logs and liquor
lis passing away, Gilbert dear, and un-
der the new dispensation advertising
space has come to have real money
value, and money is so much more
valuable than mileage, that the busi-
ness office would not care for a return
to the old system. Money is legal
tender; mileage is non-transferable,
good but for one thing and for one
person, and when used to excess be-
comes menace to the morals Of the

Chiropractics and the Law

Chas. E. Jones in Dixie: The chi
ropractics have been driven out of
Pensacola because the laws of Florida
have made no provision whereby they
can obtain a certificate. The county
solicitor of Hillsboro county will also
file information there against this
class of men. There are chiropractics
all over Florida, but this new school
has not as yet been recognized by
Florida. 1t requires but little effort
to get a "sheep's skin" to be a chir>-
practic, but in some states it requires
much difficulty in securing the permit
to practice. Florida, however, as a
rule, does not give much attention to
the enforcement of it's laws as relates
to the practice of medicine and sur.

Just a heap of broken toys,
Remnant of the Christmas joys,
Crippled soldiers-,men and boys.
On my nursery floor they lay
Strewn in childish disarray
Scared -distorted-ca away.
Here's drummer, faithful, true.
In uniform quite new,
But it's shattered through and
through.
There's one drawer than the rest.
Quick to his kings behest
Cross of honor on the breast.
Yonder meath a ragged tent
Gray -haired colonel, twisted-bent,
In his side cruel rent.
Just pile of shreds and scraps
buttons shoulder straps,
Residue of wars mishaps
But thsy symbolic to me
All that is across the sea,
And sorrows-yet to be.
Want and loneliness and pain
sweat and anguish-stress and strain
Bitter loss and barren gain.
Scanty shelter overhead
Pallid children begging bread.
Mothers weeping for their dead.
Idle shoyel-hoe and how
Withered fields-unyielding sod
Empty hands outstretched to God.
