We Are Going That Way.

The elimination of alcohol from
the desires and needs of men would
be, SO far as any one knows, a ire
mendous contribution to human
progress. There are factors in the
situation which keep many intelligent
men from reaching that conclusion
as finality. but the great and ap-
parent benefits are so presented that
any attempt to qualify the downright
arguments against the use Of alcohol
for exhilaration is apt to find itself in
lf-questioning condition.
Men who are extremely interested
in the preservation Of the business Of
making and selling liquor do not ar
que. They fight. They permit the
use of rhetoric by their publicity men,
but they do not rely on it. The
method by which making and sale Of
liquor shall be prevented is the obsta-
Gle over which meH not extremely in
terested split.
Men not at all interested in pre-
serving the business or in using its
product differ as to the practicability
or advisability Of imposing rules of
personal hygiene and sanity upon a
nation Of nearly 1OO.000,0OO people
These differences may be dissolved
We believe that if a nation wide vote
upon the manufacture and sale of
liquor were permitted, the nation
would prohibit it. Men who drink
would vote for prohibition-not all
who drink, but many who drink
What would happen thereafter we do
not pretend to know.
1t is observable and conceded that
the drift of the nation is towards re-
friction, if not extinction, of the liquor
business. Nation wide prohibition
within ten years? 1t may be-
Chicago Tribune.
Perhaps the longest stride in the
direction Of nation wide prohibition
is the coming out of one newspaper
| after another with the truth, refusing
longer to act as the tool or ally of a
gigantic and immoral business.
Men and newspapers are today more
ashamed than ever to be identified
with any branch Of the liquor making
or liquor selling business.
| The second strong indication of the
| tendency of the times toward extinc-
ton of the liquor business, is the
