Not at all. General Passenger Agent Chariton says: “All the things which are prohibited either tend or might,tend permanently or temporarily to impair a man’s physical and m ental powers.” Plain enough. It ig a business matter. The rallroad requires the best services the man can give. The services depend upon the habits of the man. Therefore the prohibition. The railroad company is not trying to reform men, It ts not heading « crusade against vice or immorality. It is engaged in the railroad business. If that business is injured or affected by the bad habits of an employe, either the employe must quit his bad habits, or quit the employment of the com pany. And thus does the strenuous requirement of this commercial age minister to morals. A man may pooh pooh sentim ents about temperance and moral- ity, He may say ho will drink what he pleases and go where he plenses, He may say the company ts interfering with his personal liberty. It matters not. Everywhere he goes the necessity for so- briety and steadiness of habits co nfronts him. The employe is free to do as he pleases so long as he pleases tobe decent, Which is, after all, the true measure of personal lib- erty.
