RAMAA’ELL BOOTH ON THE i DdUNE. CURSE. (From London “War Cry’’ Leader of May 13th, 1905.) The lawyers, including in that term the Judges, iiavo long ago denounced the drink as tlio most fruitful cause of vice and crime, and the immediate ally of every form of violence known to our Courts of Justice. THERE IS SCARCELY A POLICE COURT OR QUARTER, SESSIONS,- NO MATTER HOW FREQUENT ITS SITTINGS, WHICH CAN GET THROUGH- 'A DAY’S WORK WITHOUT SOME GHASTLY REVELATION OF RUIN AND DESPAIR WHICH IS DIRECTLY TRACEABLE TO THE ACCURSED STUFF. A country assize without some deadly strife or awful murder, which only too plainly began or ended in the same way, is rarely known. AYthen will the nation listen to the frequent warnings on this subject of most of its best men ? THE APATHY AND - AA'OItSE TH AN APATHY OF THE GREAT MASS OF DECENT CITIZENS IS APPALLING. With the result till at the awful procession of our paupers, our criminals, our suicides, our harlots and harlot-makers, our lunatics and drunken prodigals and prodigal drunkards marches up to condemn us for our neglect, our careless and godless neglect, of the evil that lias ruined them. And there is worse behind. Men still exclaim with horror at the cruel massacre of the innocents by Herod, and the cries of Rachel weeping for her children are still ringing in the ears of an outraged Christendom. But through the drink we permit to be massacred, to be beaten, to be starved, to be overlaid by drunken mothers and -bestial fathers, every week or so, more little ones than Herod slew altogether. THE DRINK IS A A7ERIT ABLE VAMPIRE HOVERING OVER THE STATE—NAY.
