STATE WIDE PROHIBITfON
The very important issue of state- tion be just and fair and that in no
wide prohibition has been raised. A case shal1 th"e be any wild and ex
campaign in favor of a constitutional travagant statement that will in any
amendment will be shortly instituted.
This, like all other important ques
tions iia.s two sides, on each of which
are found honest and intelligent per
sons.
The Republican has decided to pro
vide for a reasonable discussion of
this issue in its pages, allowing to
each side at least a half column daily
for signed articles, for which there will
be no charge. Xo anonymous article
will be published.
It is only stipulated that the com

THE BOY, BOOZE AND BISHOP
In the back of my head lies an
ancient story of Sam Johnson, the
bluff, bearish, brainy scholar of Bri
tain. In the height of his fame be
was found Standing in a downpour
cf rain on the open road of an Kng
lish village. When asked his reason
for this queer prococdure the drip
ping I'rsa replied: -I was making
atonement on the spot wheie 1 dis
obeyed my father forty years ago."
I recently returned to my boyhood
neighborhood. Full of gratitude I
rolled four decades from my should
ers and stood up therein to praise
the memory of a good man whose
advice I accepted and whose dictum
I obeyed with undeniable advantage
to myself and others. In the pulpit
of the church to which he belonged
I stooo ann caned nis name, remem-
bered by few for he died years ago hand, and said: "God bless you.
and all his kin are scattered. I told I boy. stand fast and you will be a

them to join a society, now forgot-1 The first step is the hardest, and
ten. called "The Cadets of Temper-
ance," an offspiing of "The Sons of
Temperance." I recited the dim
scene, where, in the lodge room, I
took the vow of total "abstinence
with uplifted hand in solemn mood,
how I signed the roster, drank the
pledge of fealty in cold water, sang
the ode, received the password, and
went out girded for the fray against
King Alcohol.
As I walked home alone that sum
mer night across the fields, with
frogs calling "knee-deep," and fire
flies weaving their mystic dance
around me, I paused at a stile to re
peat my obligation and renew my
youthful resolve to abstain from all
intoxicants.
Half a life time after, in a state
asylum for feeble-minded children.
when T heard the matron say that
three-fourths of the imbecile inmates
were the progeny of drunken parents,
I dug up my oath against rum and
deep in my soul registered once more
my undying hatred of this fell de
stroyer.
A short time after my adolescent
initiation I was sternly tested on this
matter. I was apprenticed to the
bricklayer's trade.
My employer knew his business
well, was a skillful craftsman, but
much given to drink, as were all his
employes. At noon of my first day
he bade me pour the water from the
pail, go to a near-by tavern, and
get it filled with ale for the dinner.
I brought it as ordered, took my
place at the end of the line, seated
like the rest in the shadow of the
wall, and saw the bucket with a tin
cup therein coming slowly toward
me. I trembled inwardly as I saw
that every bricklayer, every hod car
ri r, every mortar mixer, every ap
prentice drank the beer. From my
master down each took a share, and
I realized that I, a poor weak lad,
on my first day in a new crew, must
offend the whole gang, censure their
customs, stand their sneers, endure
their scoffs, or surrender my prin
ciples. When the booze reached me I
whispered a refusal to the One who
passed it, but the "gaffer," thinking
I was merely timid in new company,
cried out in hearty old country style:

Phoenix for good order.
It is suggested by The Republican
that either side, desiring to avail it
self or in is offer of space, name a
committee through which all matter
relating to the issue shall be trans
mitted. In such case, all communica
tions received at this office from
other sources will be rejected. We
believe that this arrangement is ne
cessary to keep the discussion within
reasonable lines.
No paid advertisements from either
side will be accepted.
"Take it, Robert, don't be shy, I pay
for it; you a-p one of us, have your
sip of it."
I said, with faltering voice, while
all eyes burned on me: "Kxcu.se me,
.Mr. George, I never drank liquor and
cannot begin now."
He laughed uproariously, as did the
others, and shouted: Ho. ho, lad,
you'll nevpr be a bricklayer till you
learn to drink."
I put the untouched meal in my
basket, arose slowly, shaking like an
aspen tree, and. walking down the
row of scornful workmen, I paused
before the leader and said: "Mr.
George, if that is true, 1 will go
home and tPll my father I ain dis
charged; for drink liquor I will not,
now or ever; 1 will not!"
I think I had mysterious help that
day, unseen of all. To my amaze-
meni tne ooss leaped up, took my

I had won the heaviest battle. 1
worked four years with him and saw
the ruin drink made. ne of my
early friends became through it a
murderer: another a madman; an
other an outcast; another a thief. I
have seen wives crushed, homes de
stroyed, children disgraced, babes
diseased, families divided, mothers
bereft, brothers estranged, firms
bankrupted, lawyers degraded, doc
tors degenerated and ministers de
bauched. And all who are in pri
sons, insane asylums, or incurable
hospitals, who rot in lazarettos, or
sleep in potter's field through this
treacherous foe of God and man be
gan as moderate drinkers.
My words will not reach or shake
the inhuman parasites who are fat
tened by the gains of this awful
tiaffic, but to the boys I cry: Swear
eternal enmity to rum, and enlist
for this holy war til! America is
free from it forever.
