NATIONAL PROHIBITION IS HERE AFTER A CAMPAIGN LASTING FOR 278 YEARS New York, Jan. 17.—Uncle Sara has been legally ‘‘dry” now for twenty-four hours. Prohibition in its natton-wide aspect has fallen upon the Country gently, It is reported by federal inter nal revenue officials, largely because of well-stocked cellars and the knowl edge of the accessibility of Cuba where a man may quench any kind of a thirst and still be within the law. Meanwhile drug stores and candy emporiums are reported doing an increased business where a “wink" at the soda fountains nowadays carries no more suggestion of a ‘kick” than a dash of ginger. Meanwhile, the churches and other organizations are celebrating the final triumph of prohibition after a “cam paign” which, they say, lasted 278 years. Next Monday the army of cler gymen in Greater New York who meet annually for a union meeting and who represent nearly every sect and creed — Jewish, Catholic and Protestant —will gather here and listen to addresses by Federal Prohibition Commissioner Kra mer, Wayne B. Wheeler, general coun sel for the Anti-Saloon League, and other notables in the “dry” fight. Sim ilar jubilee meetings, it is said, will be held in other parts of the country. To morrow will be “Law and Order Sun day.” At these meetings, various speakers are expected to touch upon (ome of the historical dates of the anti-liquor move ment in America, which had its incep tion in Maryland in 1642, when the col ony passed a law “punishing drunken ness by a fine of 100 pounds of tobac co.” Other curious events in the strug gle to give John Barleycorn the count may be recalled as follows Pennsylvania colony in 1644 made it legal to sell liquor to Indians as well as to whites, but a few years later Con necticut and Rhode Island penalized 'rum-selling to the Redskins by impos ing heavy fines. In 1650 Connecticut passed a law forbidding “tippling for more than half an hour at a time.” Four years later Massachusetts fined tavern keepers 20 shillings for catering to a drunken man. Maryland in 1658 voted to put any person found drunk “in the stocks for six hours.” Virginia decided “a common drunkard" was any person who had been intoxicated three times. Put Curb on Clergy. Even the clergy in Virginia some times looked too long upon the wine when it was red. It became so bad that the general assembly passed a law “prohibiting ministers from giving themselves to excess in drinking or riot or in playing at unlawful games." New Jersey decided in 1685 that no person should be permitted 10 drink “after 9 p. m.” Massachusetts two years later posted drunkards’ names in public squares. The Quakers of Pennsylvania and New Jersey in 1685 declared against intemperance. Hampshire in 1700 forbade innkeepers from permit ting “townspeople from remaining in their houses drinking on Saturday night or Sunday.” Trade in liquor with the Indians, gt-ew rapidly. It caused the Maryland colony in 1715 to prohibit selling “more than one gallon of liquor a day to any Indian under penalty of 3,000 pounds of tobacco.” In 1757 the Georgia col ony forbade the granting of a license to sell liquor to any person "Capable of gaining a livelihood by honest labor." Pennsylvania Quakers in 1760 endeav ored to abolish the use of liquor at funerals. Dr. Benjamin Rush, perhaps the great est American medical authority of a century and a quarter ago, in 1785 is sued his celebrated essay dealing with the effects of alcohol on the body and mind Four years later the first "tem perance society” jin Maine organized the Main Temperance Union in 1837, and in 1839 Connecticut invented “lo cal option,” by leaving the licensing of saloons to the towns themselves. 100,000 Sign Pledge. Inauguration of the Washington movement was announced in 1840 and within a year it reported 100,000 sign ers of the pledge. In 1842 Abraham Lincoln, addressing the Washington Society of Springfield, 111., urged a tem perance revolution." The next year Oregon passed a prohibitory law, but repealed it in 1848. In 1843 John B. Gough, “arch foe to intemperance, be gan to lecture in Massachusetts for 75 cents a night. Two years later, “en snared by a trick of his enemies, he became intoxicated, but continued his campaign against drink both at home and abroad. The Democratic legislature of Maine in 1846 enacted a prohibitory law. In 1848 the Methodist Episcopal church forbade members “buying, selling ®r drinking intoxicants.” Father Matthew, the renowned Catholic temperance ad vocate, arrived from Ireland in 1849 and began has pledge-signing crusade throughout the United States. A riot over the license question in Chicago called out the militia in 1855. Prohib itory laws were organized by 200 farm ers in Litchfield county, Connecticut.

FIELD 1794 the “Whisky Rebellion” in oppo sition to the tax on distilled liquors broke out in - ’western Pennsylvania and was suppressed by the military. In 1802 congress passed a law enabling the president to “take steps to prevent the traffic in liquor with the Indians.” The Sober society, founded in Allen town, N. J., in 1805, was the next step toward prohibition, the forerunner of numerous organizations founded later for dethroning King Alcohol. Not many years afterward the American Society for the Promotion of Temperance was organized in Boston. Following the organization of the Cpngreasional Temperance society in Washington, the first national temper ance convention met in Philadelphia in 1833. Next year congress enacted a law forbidding the sale of liquor to In dians under SSOO penalty. The Pres byterian general assembly in Philadel phia at that time also declared against the lqiuor traffic. Neal Dow, the "fa ther of prohibition,” had passed laws in several states which were repealed and in other cases license Amendments made them ineffective- President-elect Lincoln in 1860 re fused to furnish drinks to the notifica tion committee sent on June 19 to no tify him of his election and returned unopened the hampers of wine and liquors sent to the white house. In 1861 he signed an act of congress “for bidding the selling or giving intoxicants to soldiers.” In 1862 congress repealed thq,law allowing a gill of whisky ration to men in the navy. Kansas' in d.866 pafcsed a local option and prohibitory law. Ohio in 1870 passed the Adair law making the liquor seller and the prop erty owner jointly responsible for “in jury caused by liquor.” Francis Murphy delivered his firtt temperance sermon in 1871 and helped to organize the Catholic Total Absti nence Union of America. Three years later women actively entered the cru sade for temperance, the Women’s Christian Temperance Union being or ganized on November 19, 1874. Ver mont, in 1876, passed, a law declaring saloons to be “nuisances.” In 1883 came the era of high license laws, several states undertaking to control the traf fic by taxation. In 1884 the third plenary council of the Roman Catholic prelates at Balti more, Mil., declared against the liquor business. The Protestant Episcopal the Knights of Tem perance Society in 1885 and similar or- ganizations were formed by other re ligious denominations. In 1886 con gress enacted that “instruction con cerning the effects of alcoholic liquors shall be given in the schools of the District of Columbia, in the nUited States military and naval academies, and in other Schools under government control.” Ohio in 1888, passed a Sunday anti liquor law. In 1890 the secretary of war ruled that “no ardent spirits or wine shall be sold in army canteens,” a ruling, however, which some years later was rescinded. Men and women reformers in a temperance crusade in Bloomville, Cjhio, In 1891, wrecked a saloon and destroyed its contents, Mrs. Carrie Nation took up the same tac tics elsewhere and made the hatchet more famous than it had been since the days of George Washington. The first world’s convention of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union also was held in Boston that year. The Anti-Saloon League was founded in Oberlin, Ohio, by Howard H. Russell that year and spread all over the Unit ed States. In 1894 enforcement of the state dispensary law in South Caro lina resulted in the killing of a number of men in liquor raids.

A Talk With A Cartersville Man Mr. J. C. Smith, of 5 Tennessee Street, Tells His Experience. Theyeis nothing like a talk with one of our own citizens for giving hope and encouragement to the anxious sufferer from the dread kidney disease. We, therefore, give here an interview with a Cartersville man; “I used Doan’s Kidney Pills a good many years Slgo for kidney trouble which came on, I believe, from an at tack of malaria,” says Mr. Smith. “My kidneys were disordered and the secre tions were highly colored, scanty and burning in passage. I was often nerv ous, had bad headaCheg and mornings on arising, my back was sore and stiff. Iheard a great deal of Doan’s Kidney Pills so I began taking them. Doan’s brought me great relief and I have used them occasionally since with the same results.” Price 60c. at all dealers.
