THE DRAFT' UES1STERS
AND FREEDOM
It is unfortunate that just when
we should have a perfect unanimity
of sentiment in this country on the
question of prosecuting the war, cer
tain misguided persons should persist
in treasonable resistance to the se
lective draft. Even some preachers,
who of all others should both practice
and teach unswerving: loyalty to the
country, have advised their hearers
;o resist the law.
It is hard t° believe these people
are deliberately disloyal. Mi e would
much prefer to beileve these people
sin through ignorance.
One must be low indeed in the scale
of creation when he can deliberately
betray his people and his country.
Even that beatific designation of
'our country as “the land of the free”
has grown to mean, in many ignorant
minds, something entirely different
frcm its meaning to the person who
'sees life as it is.
The man of normal intelligence sees
Li-eedom as purely relative. He knows
th re can be no absolute freedom j
As Ic.ig as there remain two human J
beings on earth , neither can be ab
solutely free. The welfare of either
must of necessity circumscribe the1
freedom of the other.
It is just this fundamental fact,
however that many ignorant m'nd
fail to grasp To them freedofn has
no other meaning than license . Once
assured that they are free men, any
force that interferes with their con
ception of freedom is t° them tyran
ny and not to be tolerated.
It is high time we revised the pop
ular conception of freedom. It is
time the basic truth were stressed
that there can be no freedom with
out absolute obedience to law. Dis
regard of law tends toward anarchy
r.nd anarchy is the very antithesis of
freedom.
Again, many minds fail to appreci
ate the fact that without the law and
Its fosetring carethere could he no
nuch thing as freedom or even safe
ty. And without stable government
there can be no effective law. Law.
reduced to its essence, is but the cry
stalized will of those affected. Law.
for the protection of life and prop
erty depend entirely on the wills of
the various individuals.
These same malcontents are stand
ins' monuments of the efficacy of laws
and governments. Withou the foster
ing care of laws and government, it
would have been impossible for their
forebears to have evolved anything
like as creditable specimens as theii
unworthy selves. Their lives have
been guarded and shieldedby the pro
tecting power of the same force call

WHISKEY GETS KNOCK-OUT
BLOW FROM GOVERNMENT
The manufacture of whiskey in the
United States and its territories ceas
ed on September S, when the prohib
itive clause of the food control act
became effective.
This measure, while designed pri
marily for the period of the war, as
a means of saving the food grains
used in the manufacture of whisk ey,
will have a far-reaching effect on the
moral and economic life of the na
tion. The saving in grain for use as
foodstuffs is alone a very large mat
ter, for it is estimated that of this
100,000,000 bushels of grain used ev
ery year by the distilleries a large
per cent was used to manufacture
whiskey.
September S, 1917, will go down
in history as marking a triumph for
the forces of moral reform. The stop
ping of the manufacture of whiskey
even if intended only for the period
of the war, will give the people of
the country an opportunity to exper
ience the benefits derived from the
abolition of whiskey.
The history of temperance reform
is never backward, and the benefits
that will come as a result of this for
ward action of the federal govern
ment will probable mean the passing:
for all lime of whiskey and its horde
of attendant evils.
■While ii is lo lie regretted that the
fi nd control me asure did not ex udo
the manufacture of all intoxicating
liquors, the promised final emancipa
tion of the nation from the thralldom
of w’hiskey is the greatest blessing
that has ccme to it in a generation.
