Thla article la written Juat prlo November elections; the results of these will be In tbe possession of those who have aught to do with World's Temperance Sun day. A few days ago the ludtiNtrlal section of Alabama, which centers about Birming ham, "the Pittsburg of the Booth," went "dry," to the surprise of the country. The hardest districts to \ for local optluu are these congested centers of population. But there etands Oklahoma, starting out on a career of statehood, committed to pro hibition by her new cvuatHutluu. The lm- K salon that the new West and Southwest loose-living, hard-drinking regions can not too gulckly be banished, from the popu lar mind. Pennsylvania might well go to school to Texas In tbe matter of liquor legislation . . . Georgia recently surprised the country by voting out the licensed saloon. For one reason the knew tbat the race question will never be settled so loug as the lower fires of rbe negro's nature are fed by alcohol. The demonstration of Christian sentiment made in thla connection In Tennessee and Keu- tnckr, as well as In Georgia. Indicates that the South Is speedily assuming the leader ship of tbe nation In matters calling for the exercise of courageous religions convictions. Th* remarkable situation today with re spect to the civic aspects of the temperance question la shown by a statement of Itev. P. A. Baker, general superintendent of the Rational Anti-Haloon league. Mr. ltakcr that there are at present thirty-five ‘ "Ting In prohibition millions of Amertcaua Itvl half mil of people have abolished *«• session la»t year, twenty passed laws against tbe liquor traffic. Sot one passed a favorable measure. V Great Britain, also, has measurably shared In thla a maxing tempera u«e progress. Be ginning with the birtlf of tbe new century, the listlou's consumption of liquor began to decrease, in these seven years It baa gone from an average of 32.28 gallons of beer per capita lu a tear to 27.81. Spiritu ous liquors wore* drunk. Seven years ago, at the rate of 1.19 gallons per bead annual ly; last year the average was only 0.81 of a gallon. • Thla means n reduction of more than 14 per cent in the use of beer and per cent in the use of stronger drinks. Stealing th* Trad* "Fac*. r A fellow Judge made a similar decision, in Ithls, some enthusiasts saw a short-cut to a complete temperance victory. Alas for their sen Ions hopes! Th* Indiana supreme court ha* reversed tbit decision. Before the law In license state* liquor selling is perfectly legal. Nevertheless, It needs not the plslnta of the liquor trade orgaua to make manifest to even s way-faring man that thla particu lar business is falling Into increasing dis credit. On every side It Is being struck severe blows—even John L. Rullivan, the pngllist, has entered tbe arena against It. Unquestionably, tbe saloon-keeper has fallen Pffi hM* branded® to appear In the light I of an enemy of humanity. Little children bave surrounded voting booths bearing ban ners inscribed; ‘‘vote ‘No,’ for my sake. Badges of the same sort have played a prominent part in campaigning. The rela tion of the saloon to crime, pauperism, mnrltal unhappiness and other human mis ery has been painted In glaring colors. | Even the man who patronises the saloon feels ashamed of the association. This widespread outlawing of the business ! bringing It into disrepute everywhere. O In Topeka last month I saw two yoni men at a football game with a conceal!* flask of whisky between them. They would sneak off by turns behind the grandstand, and. hldlug their faces In a corner. Imbibe the flask’s contents. They acted and looked like criminals; certainly they made no re cruit* for the trade. Tbat much. It was] plnlu, prohibition has done for Kansas, j I* it a Spasm? The phenomenal progress made during] recent months In temperance legislation Is maklug some persons rejoice over tbe dawn of a cold-water millennium. More cantloua ones, however, are already beginning to talk anxiously about the possibility of a reac tion. Has not legislation swept ahead faster than deep-rooted public sentiment ? It I there not danger or a swift descent from the high plane so quickly attained? pill not the politicians, by whose help these new laws bave been placed on statute books, be ready at the flrst favorable op- portunlty to forawear their new allegiance? 1 mulitfess. the present high tide will re- cede somewhat. It la for tbe moulder* of Christian sentiment-preachers, teachers, editors and parents—to lead the public Into a clcur perception of tbe real sit nation. Ap bourn racing of all tbe fact* and a vigi lance which does not weary, will conserve the victories already gained. Most of all.
