OUR ANTI-LIQUOR FIGHT
AGAINST THE DEMON OF INTEMPER.
ANCK.
[We solicit short letters giving the evil effect* _
liquor in communities, ns wituesseil by the writers.
We don???t cnre for Argument*. We want facts and
figures. Send them in. mothers, fathers, wives,
sons, everybody, nud help in the tight against this
terrible and growin gevil.J
All the indications point to an aggressivt
prohibition campaign during the spring and
summer all over the country. Tho action \>f
the various religious bodies ^at their spriug
meetings in favor of temperance has given
additional impetus to the cause. In different
sections different methods are pursued. In
some states the light is for constitutional pro
hibition, in others high license is the issue, and
in others, still the Georgia plan of local option
meets with great favor.
Rum ik Politics.???Rum is to-day the most
potent jiower in American polities. It is tho
most iNjwerful influence, and for several reu
sons, among which are the money interest i
volved, the utter conscienceless character of
the men engaged in it, and the ease of massing
the vote it controls.
Tho money interest is something enormous.
In the state of Ohio there are $70,000,000 in
vested in breweries alone, and wlion the in
vestment in saloons, saloon fixtures, and the
necessary concomitants of the trado are taken
into consideration, the sum total of money de
voted to brewing alone foots up an amount al
most fabulous. The headquarters ate, of course,
in the great cities, but its feelers extend ov
the entire country, and its cool, clnmiuy hand
is upon every sj??ot of ground iu the couutry.
lias its adherents in every country village, and
it even (ills the country itself.
The character of the men engaged in it
makes it another power to bo dreaded by every
one who hopes for good government. The
brewers and distillers have no politics, they
arc brewers and distillers. Whisky and beer
make their creed. They care nothing for
tariffs, nothing for currency, nothing for for
eign iiolicy, nothing for anything but beer and
whisky.
They are entirely insensible to any questions
of public |M>licy except one. Touch whisky or
beer, and the slimy mass is quick enough in
response. Only when this interest U touched
has it any political life.
The brewers and distillers have in hand an
army of votes. In a city like Toledo, there are
8011 saloons, all controlled by brewers. There
isn't one of them that is not in some way in
the hands of brewers. The large majority of
them they own out and out, and those that are
not so owned are iu such relations with the
brewers that tho owners dare not offend them
something they are not likely to do, as their
terests are identical.
What a mass of votes theso 800 control l In
addition to these, count the occupations directly
connected with brewing, and the army swells
to something appalling. Especially is this
when it is taken into consideration that it is
vote that enn be handled. Tho saloon keeper
cares not a whit who represents him in con
gress; one man is as good to him ns another.
He votes ns the brewer dictates and the brewe
oasis the vote for whomsoever is most useful to
him. lie takes tho measure of every candidate
with sole reference to his soundness on the
beer question, and he elects or defeats as his
interests dictute.
No one who has uot examined into the mat
ter appreciates the enormous power of this in
tercst. It is a most easy interest to collect
money from. The Linuor Dealers association
of a state assesses tho liquor dealers so much
each, and they pay. So enormous aro the
profits of brewing and distilling that any num
ber of millions may bo contributed atony time
for any political object in which they have an
iptvusb The ordinary citizen has noperso^d
Interest in politics, nml what he gives either in
time or money, is given from a patriotic mo
tive, to forward a cause ho believes in. The
brewers nml liquor sellers have a direct money
interest in controlling legislation, and they set
apart a percentage of their blood money for
this purpose, it being as legitimate expenditure
with them ns rent or insurance.
To thin faculty for raising money must bo
added tho vast vote controlled by the brewing
and saloon interests, which aro controlled by
beer nud whisky. It is certain that tho hang-
ors-ou of saloons, tho rag-uniformed, down-nt-
heels, free-lunch mass, who arc tho equals of
the chief justice on election days, are controlled
entirely by this interest. They live for whisk v
and beer, and the week before nml tho week
after an electioA is their season. They do not
have to resort to dodges to procure their'sup
plies during this period. Tho pnyment tor
votes is made in rum, and this vote, next to
that of tho saloon keepers, ns employed by
them, is the chief reliance of tho beer barons,
and it foots up enormously.
This is tho jiower the beer barons have on
tire control or; themselves nml their immediate
??mplovcs; tho 'saloon keepers nud their em
ployes???, the gamblers, thelves, postitutc* and
nangers*on of saloons, tho vustarmy of drunk
ards, who arc kept full of stimulants tho year
round for use on election days; tho branches of
business which depends upon this interest,???
those furnishing supplies to it, directly and in
directly.
Now bear in mind that this vote doe* not
divide upon tho vnrious nuestions that arise
for public consideration. It is held solid, to ho
cast in whatever direction it may bo needed to
K rotost this one interest. It is wielded by one
ead. It is emphatically tho whisky vote, and
ia used solely and entirely iu tho interest of
whisky. Any candidate may have it win
chooses to pay tho price. Any party may have,
it who is willing to guarantee it immunity
from interference.
What is the remedy Tor this condition of
things? A very simple one. The drunkurd-
makers and tho drunkards aro not the majority
in any city or state. As lines are now drawn*,
they simplv hold the balance of power. All
that is needed for the sober men of the country,
those not interested in beer, but whoso interests
aro op)>o*ed to it, to unite as they have done.
We need to have in every state just one fight
on the beer issue. We want to have that issue
freed from other questions, and put nakedly to
the voters. We want to have a square fight on
this one question. Wo* want it detached from
party and made the one question to vote upon.
Then these impudent, insolent devastators o
homes; these destroyers of everything that is
J rjod, ami promoters of everything bad, will
iscoverthat their strength is weakness, that
their power has no foundation to rest upon.
The rum power is an egg shell, which only
needs a vigorous closing of the strong hand of
public opinion to crush it entirely. That is
what the country has got to do.
Which ibtiif. Fool????The beer or spirit
drinker is wont to look with ill-concealed con
tempt upon the simple water drinker, and as
he tosses off the glass he has just paid his
money for, he imagines h??* lias swallowed
something far better, and performed an action
far more sensible. Yet if he could stop a mo
ment to ask what he had iust taken, he might
think quite differently. Let us see. A barrel
of beer contains about five hundred glasses.
The seller gives about eight dollars for it, and
???ells it for five cents jier glass, or twenty-five
dollars. Ilis profit is two hundred and fifteen
per cent. The drinker drops in ten time* per
day and takes his gloss of beer; in fifty days
he'has consumed the five hundred glasses, and
paid twenty-five dollars therefor. What has
be swallowed? Scientific men say that in the ?? ??? ~ i??? ??..??????? i ib

glasses of pure alcohol, which is a poison???at

he has taken fifteen glasses of extract of malt

Surely there is no absurdity so absurd. T*

Thk Hot Watkr Mania.???In dealing with
physical ills which mankiud is heir to, ns in
everything else, particular remedies, outside of
those prescribed by regular physicians, have
their reason. Just now it is said to bo hot
water; amt it is so much in vogue that tin
Medical News calls it the ???hot water mania.???
People are taking hot water for every Bort of
disease. There are doubtless thousands of
dyspeptics who devote themselves several
times a day to the irritation of their stomachs
by the use of hot water as a beverage. If peo
ple must be dosing, it is fair to assume that hot
water, if its purity is assumed, is a more inno-
cent remedy that many which are indulged in.
It is certainly a remedy at hand for which those
must be thankful who aro either |??oor in purse*
or reside a distance from physician and drug
store. But there may bo such a thing ns^ too
much hot water, as there is of many things
which have more character. And this is wliat
the Medical News asserts. It says that the
physical effect of hot water taken into the
stomach is to wash out that organ and prepare
it for better work, but he warns those who are
after health in hot water that too much hot
water injures instead of helps. Moreover,
should be taken either liefore the process of
digestion is begun, or after it is completed.
That is, the person who is seeking health by
that remedy cannot devote his days to the
drinking of hot water. It is fair to assume that,
like other remidies, the water cure will have
its day, and the ailing public will turn to the
remedy then held to be the |>otmlar one. May
it be as simple, harmless, and above all ns
heap ns hot water.
An old lady in Iowa, says one of our ex
changes, was* asked what she would do with all
the corn, If it could not be made into whisky.
She replied: ???I would make it into starch to
stiffen the backbone of many of our temperance
people.??? The old Indv, in n very homely way.
expressed a great truth. . What is wanted, and
wanted most, in this present cause of temper
ance, is not more friends, but more courage;
not more sound views, but more action; not
more believers, blit more backbone. We are
t<io timid, too cowardly, too much afraid of
antagonism, too fcarful'in business, in reputn
tion, and in tho profession of our faith. Wi
know the right???we must dare to do it l Wo
are sworn to tho cause; we must not desert it,
despite all opposing forces! Wo dare not be
untrue to God, therefore wo must be courageous
in the right. Let us cultivate bnckbouc.

Mollis Nelson Tells Why She Killed Emma Shipp-

A difficulty occurred on Captain B. F. Davis'
place on Saturday night last between Emma
Shipp ami Mollie Nelson, colored, which re
sulted in the death of the former. Both of
these negro women were in jail here last year
for lighting, and it appears thnt the best of
feeling did not exist between them. It seems

THE HISTORY OF
irewer???s Lung Restorer
Its Claims Upon tlio Public???Why It Blionhl
ho Universally Used,
It Is very often the cn*o that treasures remain
hidden for year* right under one???s cyoa am! only
discovered at lust by uccldent. Hitch was the cuso
with Brewer's Lung Itiwtorcr. This remedy waa
used for tieftrly forty years by a little neighborhood
of iHsiple who either did not appreciate Its true
value or did not have the means or opisirtunity to
proclaim Its virtues to the world. When they hud a-
cough, sore throat, bronehlti*, tickling in thu
throat or other throat and lung trouble* they mado
them a small kettle full of thi* unnamed remedy,
the material for which they hail hut to lookTor In
the forests and old field* surrounding their hornet
uml in a remarkably *hort time they were relieved
by its use and nerer thought of It any more until
It wa* again required. However, things toavo
qhnngcd since those days, fiueh treasures are easily
sought after and do not long remain in obscurity.
The present proprietor* of tfil* old remedy having
by accMcnt Teamed that Its rurvs were miraculous
determined at once to asit-rtnln for themselves
what merit it really possessed, and having tested It
In a great number of rases. In all of which It proved
efficacious, they purchased the right to tnununu *-
lure uml k*1I the same under tho name of Brewer*?
???,ung Restorer and it has become so widely known

the greatest throat and lung remedy of too
age. containing no opiate* It can be token with
perfect safety by the most delicate. Being entirely
vegetable It* effect* can In no way be harmful and
even in the event that it fails to cure the general
health oC the patient I* greatly. Improved. It can
lie given to six month???s old infants in the pre
scribed doses with beneficial effect*;yet full grown
men are surprised at Its msglcal effect on them
Those who suffer from westing discos* such nx
consumption and dyspcpela, rapidly gain In flesh
and strength by the use of Brewer???s Lung Restorer
Many Instance* of patients gaining 7 pounds of
flesh from every bottle they took have been re
ported to us. Testimonials from the best p*?oplo
In the land arc found in every newspaper of con
sequence and such testimonials from such
men mast convince the public thnt ,
thi* remedy poaesse* great merit. This medicine,
indorsM by such men, Inis done more to break
down the prejudice existing against patent medi
cines than any other remedy known. For the va
rious reasons mentioned we call upon suffering
humanity to give Brewer???s Lung Restorer a trial.
