Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Temperance Journal, Vol. 22: September, 1912 The, year of 1875, our busiest year, was the most drunken of any recorded. It may be urged in extenuation of these deplorable facts that the determining cause was the previously low wages; also that it is the sudden rise from rural to urban wages that sweeps the appreciated wage earner from his simple, sober ways to exciting, heavy drinking habits. If this be accepted, it diminishes enormously the force of the theory that poverty causes drink. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
