There isno justification of the extraordinary and unequal tux levied up- on the Uquor trafllé thah that it vntalls cxtraor- nary dutics and cares upon the State, notably those of “polfco regulation.” This consists simply of the arrest and abuse of one party to the trade when he had bevome, through Nquor, bankrupt in character and purse.

Dr. C.F, Widney, of St, Louis, presented a paper on “* The Gradual Reduction of Optumin the Treatment of Opium Inebrivty.” In hls private pnictice, as well as in the institution with which he fs connected, he had found tt best to gradually dhninish the doses of the drug. He had tried belladonna asa substitute, but waa not aatisticd with It. In tou many canes the so-called substitutes or remedies for the optuin disease coualated simply of opium in another form. ‘The Iinitnediate withdrawal of the drug usually caused diarrhea, {n- sornnia, and restlessness, suimetines going a0 fur, in serious cases, as to endanger the life of the patlont, ‘The speaker favored u more gradual mode of procedure, and ths use of frou, quinine, and other tonics tor Fy ine, De.

Davis followed with a paper on “Tho Principles which Should Govern the Man- ‘agement of Inebriates, ani the Institutions Neciled to Afd in Their Kestoration.”"| Dr. Davis demanded tnore accurate definitions of inebricty in its various forms. Ie held that the DOCTRINE OF MRURDITARY INBBRIETT had been carricd further than was justiflablo, Children, of drunken parents wero tore 6x- posed to the temptation todrink during their childhood than were those morecarefully brought op and this fact ought to explain why they so often became ttaunkarde, without the necesalty of golng back of it in search of a hereditary pro- pensity, which might not extat. In conclusion the apenker held that the use of alchohol and other intoxicants was founded on expericuce, and not on Instinct; that thelr voluntary use was primarily an act of the will, actuated by mo- tives, and” that as alcohol is a phyal- cal agent Incapable of nsaiinitation with the aystem, tt produces certain physical effects and changes in that system. The remedy was to be found Ina removal of the tnebrinte “trom the intoxicant which he had been using, and In surrounding him with better moral aad rellious Intluentes.

In bis onlnion it was unwise to proveed to the election at the present time. Ho allnded to the dissenstons of the past yeur, the differences of opinion between the two gentle men, the causes thaf led to Superintendent Pickard's resignatign, and advanced the opinion that, before any election wae had, the Board should proceed to chance the rules so as to clearly acine the — superi- ority of the © Superintendent over his Assistant. His {dea was to’ continue Mr. Duty as Assistant, and let him temporarily act as chief, until the now members should’ become more famillar with the merits of these gontle- men, and could vote moro intelligently on the subject.
