TEMPERANCE IN POLITICS.

The introduction of a new element into the parti-
san contests Of the day is disturbing the calculations
OF the politicians 1t breaks down the former land
marks by which men have been guided, and throws
them INTO new and strange associations. How far
this is to extend, in how many States the question
OF prohibtory excise laws is to be made an issue in
our politics. remains to be SEEN 1t has already in
vaded several, and is progressing From Maine it
has extended to nearly every other New England
state, and in the spring elections we have had
considerable infusion of it in this State. 1t is
destined however, like all other oneideasms be ephe-
neral and to pass away with the excitement which
men 70 break their party ties for 1t has been
demonstrated by the experience of the last fifty years
least that there be but great controlling parties
IN this country Other issues have been made in certain
localities, and have occasionally been sufficiently formd
able 10 embrace whole State But their subsistence has
been as speedy as their RISE So it will be unless
our people become greatly changed in their political
nature.
It cannot be expected that the temperance question will
prove an exception to the general by which all others
have been governed. From its very nature, from the
many and important interests involved in the passage of
prohibtory laws in relation to the liquor traffic. its agta
ton is calculated to call into existence wide spread and
general excitement and consequently it will add the
heat and vndctveness Of political This it
is desirable to avoid, unless paramount public good
winch CANNOT De secured III any other way WILL result
from it. Upon this point there are, necessarily variety
Of conflicting opinions. 1t is question that be
satisfactorily settled.
In the Connecticut election which took place on Mon
day the Temperance question principal element.
The Wing party, it. almost uniformly is unfortunately
whenever an ism appears in the political arena
mitted to the Maine law its candidates generally were
publicly pledged to its enactment The result will be seen
in the returns.
In all the experience we have had in this matter the
Wings have been the losers by being drawn into the sup
port of side issues 1t has been found in politics that
opponent of the Maine law is worth two temperance
advocatesthat is, the former readily breaks away
from party ties than the latter Democratic temperance
men WILL general rule, vote the straight Democratic
ticket let who will be upon it, his politics is the govern
ing principle Of his action his temperance is but secon
dairy But with the opponents Of this Maine law" diff
erent principle of action obtains Their party relations
and ties do not stand in the way, and their cast
for those who accord with them. Thus the Wing party
by committing itself to the Maine law is made to suf
fer while the of temperance is benefited but
in fact retarded.-4lbany Register.
