License ArfcTurueuts. Mnuor drinkiue is not a wrong : but
excessive drinking is."
Without qualifications, we cannot ac
cept such a atatement. Liquor drink.a at t i . a a
ing, uutier tne airection 01 a curnpeieiii physician, we might excuse, although tar k..ltavn there la abuse even here.
Our idea is that all liquor drinking other
than noted is excessive, nence wrong. "Mmior will be sold : hence the sale
should be licensed."
Murder will be committed; men will set Are to their houses, and to the houses of other people.; property will be stolen ; men will run away with othor men's
wives: these things and many others

as medicine and for use In the art.
License here If you will, but to license tbo sale of liquor In a y other manner is but 0 make one's self a partner in a business whicb is Iniquitous. Again :
"Liquor is dangerous; nence tne ousness should be regulated." Agreed ; liquor is dangerous, and here
comes a man representing mo nquur
dealers themselves, wbo at last coniesses the truth. The business should be reuulated. We hope that those wise words
will be taken for all they mean oy tne loditainra. T,ot the business be regu
lated : but not by legalizing the public

absolutely no place in health. Every
drop of alcohol, as every particle of morphine, that a weir man takes, makes
him less a well man. We believe thai clinical facts, accurately observed and correctly interpreted, will ber out thin
statement in every case. Those who
use alcohol and still remain in good
health are enabled to do so by a reserve
of vital power which they expend in this way, and which would other wise
be avaihble in another direclioR. When we bear of a Prohibitionist wb
telle us that the exportation of rum Is
doing more to dograde the heathen than
an tne missionary woric can do to up
lift them, and who after talking thus
gives a hundred dolhrs to send missionarles to tbe heathen but begrudgee one dollar to stop sending tbem rum, we
cannot help wondering sometimes
whether the hundred dollars is given
for the sako of getting glory to tbe giver.
A Sample of What Some Opera
House Managers Have to Contend With. The following letter, clipped from an
exchange, is a replv from a local manager of a' Georgia Opera House, whose business hag been affected by the hard
times. He writes :
"Dear Sir: Your letter about open ime and terms for Captain Racket to
hand. The only noteworthy engagement I havo booked is Gabriel's trumpet
solo, and I would cancel tbat if I could.
Yon ask for a guarantee, and I am fool
enough to give it, though I'll probably
have to work a free-lunch route for a month afterwards. But don't come here if yon can help it, for this is the most dsg dinged sooner show town in tbe
United btates or Mew Jersey. Tiie
rival bouse has been a yawning grave
for three repertory shows, four burnt
corkers, five leggers and six medicine
Nkes. They came saw, and busted. 1 wont let a ahow dlo on my bands if I have to mortgage my socks to move it
along.
if you will accept a auuo guarantee
come ahead and help me loso money. I
guhranteed a well known bester that sum last week and played him to $101.50.
It cost him $137 to play here, as follows : Fares aud salaries. - 86 00

I had $1 10 for my skars with wkieb
to pay license, lights, orchestra, Rigger
porters, billing and interest on money invested.
If vou decide to come I'll put reserv
ed seats on sale at once. Then I'll take
my biggest bulldog I've got seven, which shows how poor I am and go
gunning for patronage. If a man re
fuses to buy seats for bis nmlly, 111 remove him and pass on. I'll have a good
house for you if my enterprise and seamunition holds out."
The home for feeble-minded children!
st Ft. Wayne is said to be in a prosper
ing conditiou under the management ol Alexander Johnson. A farm of 160:
acres has been leased for the home, and, la located a mile and a half from It.1
tioflrintendent Johnson will place upon
it ahmit twantv bovs and and a herd of
thirty cows, which will result in a sav
ng of $3,000 a year to tne acaooi on
item of milk. There are 454 children
in tbe home at present, the largest number In the history of the institution.
There are fifty or sixty or sixty applications now 011 file for admission, aad the number is increasing. As soon as tbe farm is in operation there will be r.iom for twenty more children. Man on
county has forty feeble-minded youth In
tbo home. Henry county nas twentyone, Hamilton eleven, and six counties counties in the state have 110 representation. Thoro are eighteen counties
in the state which have only one cbiid
each there. These counties with small or-no representation are receiving the
preference in admission, oounty om-
s'ala. .Mr. Johnson says, are not giving
tri weak. minded enouifh attention. Ifi
each county bad its quota the home
would have a population of about l.oUO.
Tbe children were recently vaccinated, and there are over 450 sore armi in tin
school. Logaasport Pharos.
