Prohibition in Connecticut.
(New Haven JournaLCour-ier)
The readers of yesterday's issue
of The Journal-Courier were. as we
were ourselves indebted to J. P.
Cooriart for recalling an incident in
the life of this state which under
a prehihition amendment of its own
constitution is now being repeated
throughout the country under a pro-
hibition amendmt to the federal
cnnstitution. It is of profound in-
-terest to recall the Connecticut ex-
periment because its prohibition
amendment was ratified by the
people of the state and later. upon
the revelation of its failure to
achieve its purpose, was repealed by
them.
Connecticut was sure that the pro-
hibitive process of regulating the
moral of its people would succeed.
but when the doubt of'its success
began to dawn upon them they set
about. investigating the conditions.
The report of the committee rendcro
ed to the general assembly in Mhy.
1867. might with equal truth be sub.
mitted to congress today as an ac-
curate survey of the condition now
more or less widespread throughout
the country under the Yolstead en-
forcement act. The Connecticut in-
vestigating committee. found in 1867
that the law was "a. dead letter. and
there has been. instead or a. regu-
lated traffic in ardent spirits. a prac-
tically unlicensed free trade in
spirituous liquors. as an open. con-
stant and unpunished violation of the
law." ' a ,-
It was this revelation of the in-
quity of the prohibition process of
undertaking to regulate the person-
al habits of the people of this state,
_and to‘niake a crime out of an in-
'dulgence which has no criminal oril
531'!) in fact or theory, that led even-
tually to the adoption of the local
option plan which at the time of the
promotion of. the._18th amendment
was slowly but surely converting
Connecticut into a. land of steady
habits, literally. No better illustra-
tion of the capacity of the people to
reform their habits under personal
responsibility. and to closely approxi-
mate ideal temperanco standards.
will be found in the annals of social
progress. ,At the time of the pro-
motion of the 18th amendment a.
majority of the towns of the «states
were no license and in all of the
towns o: the states the habit of
drinking had undergone tic-evolution
in social circles. of every kind. ‘
The progress in temperance sund-
ards in this state. which began with
the repeal of the prohibition aniend-
ment and was rapidly reaching —its
highest level under local option
when federal prohibition was pro-
moted and achieved without the-vote

than for mere ideas. ‘ZHence."
Schopenhauer explains, ”a good im-
agination makes it easier to learn
languages: for by its aid the no v
word is at once united with {he a;
{uni object to which it refers;
whereas. it there is no imagination.
it is simply put on a parallel with

"Al’iicmonics (the science of arti-

plain its several attributes by reiter-
cncc both to its rival nature and to
the relation in which these attribu-
tcs stand to one another." '
O C O
IT MUST also be reckoned among
the peculiar attributes of memory.
Schopenhauer points out, that a
slight state of latexlcstion often so
greatly enhances the recollection of
past times and scenes that. all the
circumstances connected with them
come back much more clearly than
would be possible in a state of so-
briety; but that on the other hand
the‘ recollection of what cab and
or did while"the lntoxicati it lasted
is more than usually imperfect: nay.
that if one has been absolutely.
tipsy, it is gone altogether. \Ve may
say. then, that whilst intoxiéation
enhances. the memory for what is
past it allows it to, remember little
of the present. ,
