They could publish the returns just as they came, and show no Prohibition vote, or so near ' to none that it was easy to make their ; readers believe that "it :had reached the vanishing point."

TO PEOV IDE TOR THE STUiY OF SCI EMIFIC TEMPEBA3STCE IN" THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF THE STATE OF VERMOXT. It is hereby enacted, byfthe General Assembly of the State of Vermont: Section . 1. li addition 1 to the branches in which instruction is now required bylaw to be given i i ; public schools, instruction . shall also be given as to the nature of : alcoholic drinks and narcotics and special in struction as to their effects upon " the human system in connection with the several divis on3 of the subject ol Physiologya d Hygi ne. And such subjects shall be taught as thor jugh- ly as -Arithmetic and ; Geog aphy are taught in said schools. Such instf uc tion shall be given orally to pupils who are not able to read and shall be given by the use'of text books in the" case of pupils who are able to read.. And such instruction shall b3 give n as aforesaid to all pupils in all public schools in the State.-. , " - : Sectihn 2. The text-bo k"s : used for the instruction required to.be giv en by ihe" preceeding section1 shall give at least one-fourth' f their space to the consideration of the nature and effects of alcoholici drinks and nar cotics; and the books used in the high est grade of graded schools sha l con tain at ba3t- twenty: pages of matter on Physiology in U3e in the schools at the time this act takes effect,- which are not in accordance with the . r -- quirements of this section, shall be changed for books satisfying the ' re quirements of this section,; except when previous , contracts as to such text books are now in force. Section 3. Each teacher of a pub lic schoo' m this State shall' before lodging the school register with the district clerk as provided "by section 620 of the Revised Laws, certify there in whetherinsfcruction has beengiven (in the school or - grade presided over by such teacher) as required - by this ACT; and no public money v shall be ; I think it 13 high time for alL men who call themselves Temperance men, to unite in a moral, temperence-frater-nity and sustain such men only as are of alike faith and practice, or to cease their eternal twaddle about Prohibi tion,, claiming to be Prohibition Tem perance men - while every ; ballot they cast gives their.' profession "the lie. Such men, in the age of intelectual advancement and 'moral cul ture; are not temperance men in the proper sense'of the word A man may not in these time3,' touch a dram of liquor, and still be - not a temperance man In olden times this could have: been true. But now, to bera tempeuance man, requires total abstinence" from all intoxicating drinss and an' open, firm, uncompromising stand in favor of temperance.. To stanb off and" say "I am a tempetance man," and at the same time use all my . influence and my vote to put drunkards into office, is simply idiotic, foolery. We are not living in the dark ages when allow ances were necessarily made to " meet the ignorance of the psople. : In those time3 "God winked at the conduct of the people." But in these times, a man whose comprehension of -moral right is -so obtuse as to net be able to see the evil in sueh conduct, is simply to be pitied". - ' . The fast is, I do : noi' understand the meaning of our party co temper ance brethren - I know they-" do not drink. I have confidence if their moral integrity. -,But upon the rnoiai opimnrii of their course, when will temperance "cover all this land a3 th3 water3 cover - the sea? ' Why fool pur precious time away, with Lo cal Option? The Ballot, (now dead, but not burled,) said sometime since in reply to an article of m ne, that in twenty or fifty years to com 3, if tern perancs principles' should predomi nate-, we migh 1. then, if we w shed transfer the Democratic pa ty over to Prohibition"'!! ; Great Heavens! Where will we b3 in fifty years to come? And, if matte s go on as the are now go ng, where may some of our souls be iu that time? No Sir; cut the tree down and blast up the roots with the dynami e of a sobir, m tral Temperance; Union " Party. . , Do the thing now while we are living and not leave our families to be blasted by the evils of a curse which we might have removed in our rife time. : Local Option is a kind of patch cure that mav have to be repeated again and again till the patient dies of the effects of he drug. It is a rather mechanical operation that lacks prin ciple - never toill drive drunkenness from the land.' Nothing, as "bro her Vail has said, but the nomination and election of every officer from a con stable to the president of the U. States upon -pure Prohibition principles will ever save our country from the ravages of the l'quor curse. ; I feel that God has specially called mer to fight this s monster evilj and with love m my heart for all men and hatred for none, I shall ; speak: and write in the' fear of, God, all that I think and feel upon this subject I now be ong to neit er political party.
