Temperance and the futility of banning liquor
The piece argues prohibition misframes morality as legislated by law rather than by people. It critiques temperance crusades that target liquor lists while ignoring supply and demand, urging culture, education, and factual childhood training as cures. It emphasizes virtue grows slowly and liquor is not the primary cause of intemperance.

An accompanying poem laments estrangement and lost friendship, while a final note reports Texas flooding with six feet of rain and railroad damage near Dallas.
