PROHIBITION STATES.

THE bill of fare of a Pullman dining-car is revealing the fact that America is becoming a nation of teetotalers. The list of states where the citizens have formally voted the liquor out is given, for a note on the card says: "Wines and liquors will not be sold in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Indian Territory, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, New Jersey, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wyoming." This notice is given in harmony with a general law which will not permit the sale or serving of liquor on Pullman cars in states where prohibitory laws exist. Slowly and surely the dread traffic is being driven out of our beautiful domain.—Pacific Ensign.
