This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: THE WORKING OF PROHIBITION. r I HE abstinence reformers sincerely believed that the law only lacked power; if they could have greater force at their command, then they thought they could abolish the traffic in liquors. This feeling was general among them, and it was not a new discovery, but a practical application of this supposed principle, which Neal Dow accomplished in the famous Maine Law. This was introduced shortly into other States, and became the political shibboleth of the abstinence party. It proceeded against the property as well as the offender under the law, and gave stringent power of seizure. This statute was enacted in Rhode Island in 1852, and it is interesting to review some of the arguments which were used in obtaining it, because they are the same in kind which prevail with the whole party. Amos C. Barstow led the reformers, and we cite from his speech in the Rhode Island House of Representatives, as reported in the Providence Journal: ? We are acting on a petition of 25,000 persons, of whom 11,500 are adult male citizens; they embrace a large part of the moral worth of the State. . . . These petitions bear the names of the learned and excellent President of your University, of ministers of religion, of your physicians, merchants. . . . They represent the industry and the virtue of the State. I beg gentlemen who are preparing amendments to this bill to mark the prayer of these petitions. They want a law to Suppress the rum traffic, ? not to regulate, but to Suppress. They ask for nothing more, and will be content with nothing less. ... I charge the evils of intemperance upon this traffic, ? and for this reason, the appetite is not natural but acquired, and acquired through the temptations presented by this traffic. The only way, therefore, to sto...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Morality of Prohibitory Liquor Laws: An Essay The writer believes that the whole fabric of our legal and political action has been strained and injured by the institution and administra tion of these liquor laws. He believes that one of the first and most important steps in the much talked about reform of civil government must be, to turn the humane temperance im pulse away from its abnormal action in law and in the state, and to give it natural play in the ethical improvement of the individual man and of society. If these pages contain any facts, or show any reasons which may help to forward this issue, his labor has not been in vain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a justification for "The New Beer Bill." The bill came into operation in the mid-1850s. It required public houses to be closed on Sundays except between 1 to 3 p.m. and 6 to 10 p.m. As soon as it was passed, there was a remarkable decrease in the number of cases of persons charged with inebriety at the various police stations of the municipality. When the bill was in motion, Monday, instead of being a busy day, was the opposite. The magistrates had little or nothing to do. The author gives various reasons to support the bill. The most crucial reason was the horrors of Sabbath drinking, known well by people belonging to every social class.
