TWO PLAQUES.

The great white plague, tuberculo- sis, kills 100000 persons a year; $S,- 000,000 was spent last year to destroy 1t and prevent its further spread. All are working to destroy it. Plague two, the liquor traffic, kills yearly from 500,000 to 100000. Suppose that 100000 doctors, 100000 nurses, 5O,- 900 grave diggers, 10000 casket and coffin makers, should petition con- gress. petition legislatures, demand of politicians that tuberculosis must not be stamped out. Their trades, pro- fessions, prosperity demand that the plague be left at liberty, just licensed and regulated. A worldwide cry of horror would arise. But that is what we do with the worse plague of the liquor Exchange.

POINT WELL TAKEN,

Last year the Illinois legislature voted to found a colony for epileptics. In a number of states these are al ready well established institutions. A sary, but why did we not likewise ten years ago establish hospital for those wounded and maimed in the insane celebration of the Fourth of July? In stead, we instituted the sane Fourth and almost completely did away in a decade with any need of medical care whatever for our celebrants. Alcohol as drink must go. It is an economic surdity-Charles F. Read, NJ. D., Hi uois Medical Journal.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC A PERIL,

Prohibition is inevitable in this country, says the Boston Advertiser. With practically the whole world con- ceding that alcohol is a bad handicap to any nation, and that the abolition of its use means a healthy-not an arttf1cial-jncrease in the efficiency of the average producer, public senti- ment in this country is going to wipe out the saloon, just as it has wiped out such nuisances as the polluted public or private water supply, or the manufacture of poisoned foods or en- balmed meatstuffs. They were abol- ished because they were a danger to national safety and efficiency And the saloon is certain to be abolished In precisely the same way and for precisely the same reason.

REDUCED TAXES.

The tax rate for Juniata county, Pa, has been reduced from to Az mills. As there was a decrease of $33,000 in the debt of the county dur ing one year of curtailed license and two years of absolutely no license, the county commissioners felt they could afford to grant this reduction to the taxpayers. Juniata county maintains no almshouse and finds little use for one even under the present business depression.
