PROFANITY UNPOPULAR

A few Sundays ago there was held at Dayton, Ohio, the greatest manufacturing town of its size on the American continent, a gigantic parade in which all classes and conditions of men and boys participated and later exercises were held with songs, music and speaking. And what do you sup pose was the occasion and object of the parade and general outbWst ofpublic senti- mcnt! The object of it all was to abolish profanity, to purify the language in daily use and to discourage the practice of coarse speech and blasphcmous expression.
 These people who took part in the eXer- ciscs did not appear in public in any amo- gant fashion. They make mo pharisaical prctcusions They do not seek to proselyte They simply show by their taking part that they approve of clean speech, that they are willing to stand before all the world as op- posed to objectionable language that they would have others refrain from the profana- ton of the name of the Most Sacred.
 There is mo defense for profanity. 1t is by all odds the most foolish practice ever adopted by misguided man. It is without excuse at all times rcpulsive at all times, beneath the dignity of any man of mtelli- gcncc. Yet it is so prevalent that these thousands felt called upon to protest, in sense. against the habit.
 It is unnecessary. It lends neither rhyme nor reason to speech. It carries no argument. It is a manifestation of weak ness rather than of strength. It debascs always, it never uplifts Profanity has add ed mo touch, says an exchange, of sympathy to the world, no vein of hmor, no comfort or consolation. It was born of degradation, nurtured in vice, fostered in perverson of truth. But it came to be respectable, in sense. and many otherwise respectable peo- pie have been and are given to the habit so much for the carelessness of mankind. For profanity is today more a matter of carelessness than of vicious intent. That is why such demonstrations as that held at Dayton are of such great worth. They serve to call the attention of many thought less ones to the desirability of abolishing it, and bring to the attention of the world the fact that profanity is wholly objectionable from every standpoint.

INDIANS AND BOOZE

From the amount of drunkenness now heinz practiccd by the Indians of Douglas Island it is evident that the law prohibit inc supplying natives with iutoXicantS IS being most rlagrantly violated by some per son or persons to the officers of the law m- known
 There iS a way to find out who is sup plying the Indians with liquor and that IS to compel the Indians themselves to reveal the secret. Indians, as a class, arc monu- mental liars and nine in ten of them, when arrested for drunkenness, invariably dis claim au knowledge of the identity of the person furnishing them with the liquor. Our observation has been that a day OF two i'm iaiI often serves to rcfrcshcu am Indians memory on the subject and if one day fails to bring forth the desired information. two or three days usually gets it. This plan should be worked here. When arrested for drunkenness OF with lqhor in his possession am Indian should be remanded to jail from dav to day until he tells where and from whom Inc secured the whcrcwithal for his celebration. The third remand usually re- suits in bringing to light the identity of the law-brcakcr
 Drunkenness among Indians and hootch pcddlng in Douglas can easily be broken up if the officers of the law go about 1t in the right way and the right way is to keep Mr. Lo in jail until he 'comcs across ' with all the information necessary for the ar- rest and conviction of the party or parties supplying him with the oil of joy. But as long as Indians are permitted to indulge in cock and bull stories about getting booze from strangers or in Juneau or finding it some place. drunkenness among them will continue and the officials will be laughed at as easy marks-which they ar" SD long as they permit themselves to be outwitted bv either Indians or the class of white trash that supplies liquor to Indians.
