BE- nrsHop wARREN a. cANpLER

Recently the following press dispatch
from philadelphia appeared i'm all the
leading newspapers of the country:
Mayor Thomas L. Smith today made
it clear that the orders against the use
of intoXicants by employees of the city
which have been issued by the heads of
several departments of the municipal
government are to apply to all city en-
ployCs, After n meeting with his depart
mental directors, at which the question
was discussed, the mayor issued 4
statement i'm which I've said:
rum and efficient public service is
impossible. My orders to the heads Of
all departments are to suspend from
duty without pay any employe found
using liquor while at work or found to
be under the influence of liquor wnile at
work, or showing any evidence whatever
Of having used the same while On duty.
The suspension is equivalent to dis
missal where the facts warrant such ac-
ton. No excuse Will save an offending
employe, no matter how good his pre-
vious record may be-
Formal orders against the Use of in
tOxicants have been issued by Director
Wilson, of the department of public
safety; Carleton L.. Davis, chief of the
bureau of water, and James r. Nc

ployed in these three departments"
This is another evidence OF the grow
ing opposition upon the part Of all sorts
of corporations to the use of intOXi-
cants by their agents and employees. 1t
is more and more manifest that a man
can no longer hold both his jug and his
job. The business world has issued this
decree, and it means that the saloon is
doomed.
1t is particularly encouraging when a
municipal corporation adopts such poll
icy as that which is now proclaimed for
Philadelphia. The saloon in politics"
is a dreadful evil, and it reaches it's
worst ia city politics Men VINO are in
formed concerning politics i'm Pennsyl-

But why restrict the order 10 the sub

the men engaged i'm the several depart
ments can not render efficient public
service when using intoXicants, the
higher officials also can not. WTy not

ARTICLE BY BISHOP GAMBLER

right. \ mayor. who drinks can not
render efficient public service. More
over. u drinking mayor will naturally
and inevitably organize around himself
the saloon element, and thus create the
most corrupt and corrupting ring. The
Office of an immoral nigh official always
becomes a source of defiIement to city
politics, and the higher the Office the
greater the deflement.
In like manner a drunken governor de-
files the commonwealth over which he
presides. The executive office becomes a
foundation of corruption, and the ev-
ecutive mansion serves the ends of de-
bauchery. This mas been seen too often
to be questioned.
Why then should not the rule against
the use of intoxicants apply TO all pub
lie servants of every degree and rela-
ton? A railway company will not have
drunken men in its service. No bust
ness house will retain drunkards. The
commercial world absolutely prohibits
liquor drinking.
Have not all the people of a city, or
q state, the right to have as efficient
public service as railways and business
houses require of their employees? Are
there not many and cogent reasons for
saying that the public service should
be even more efficient that that of any
private corporation?
The duties ola public official are more
delicate and difficult than the work of
any employe of a commercial corpora
ton, and the character and acts of a
public official affect more people for
good or i'll.
Public servants become examples to
youth. and an ambitious young man
who observes daily one in official sta
ton addicted to drink, comes to look
upon drunkenness with something more
that allowance. y drunken mayor, or
a drunken governor, corrupts daily the
morals of young men by the prominence
of his pernicious example.
And what is true of mayors and gov
errors is equally true of members Of n
legislature and members of congress. y
drinking executive of law is a horror,
but a debauched maker of law is a
monster. 1t is impossible to estimate
the evil which the country has suffered
from drunken legislators and congress-
men. The cost in money alone, not to
speak of higher considerations, is past
all power Of computation.
What a peril to the whole world may
drunken congressman at Washington be
just now. when President Wilson is
dealing with the most difficult ana
delicate international problems! A group
of such men might easily compromise
the homer Of the republic, or plunge
the nation into war.
1t is time for the people to apply
to all public officials and candidates for
public office, the rule which the mayor
