In the HOUSE this morning the Speaker announcer ths
special order being the act for Tire suppression OF inem
Mr. D.wrr. from the minority of the Committee on
Inempennce Ell omitted written report, which he real
in bis place. send you brief summary of the pjlts
urged by the minority. They with the majority a5
to the evils Of ntemperance but the conclusions drawn
the majority not legitimate reasonable The evil
not to be overcome by extreme laws Excessive sever
ty defeats purpose The use Of exirating beyer
ages would no; be regarded by even the most Incorporate
temperate wrong but was the abuse
Of that use which gave the oiense Bat the
the majority propose to deal win men as emu Iren
and imbeciles. The minority denied the power OF any
government thus TO rule s people In ae infancy of the
world governments had done this; established religions
and nobies and thousands OF such enormtie for tlo
only purpose of sustaining themselves That man saoud
not abuse Bis mind body is law of nature not Of
governments Such laws these originated in the early
setters Of New England which prohibited almost every
thing which did not accord 10 their religious sentiment
The idea OF heocratc government had lived TO this and
seenin the liquor law We do not camess of morality
in our day than prevalent in the days Of the Pu;a
The spirit prevalent quarter Of century
since for the prohibition of Sunday mails Petition after
Teiton poured into Congress depicting in glowing co)Ts
the horrors which were 10 result from the existence OF
Sunday mails The principles set forth in the report on
this subject those which the minority here seek % esab
lsh that Government has no power to legislate upon
laws such subjects The minority claimed that every
individual Of mature age had the right to choose hi
diet, well a his religion. Less than this would
be the wort Of despotism The majority might a.
well decree a creed-a series Of amusements and pas
times TO be INDUCED in-mesmerism, spirit rapplng
&c &c &c TO decree the drink of man. The majority
claim that their bill not sumptuary, because It doe
not prohibit a man from using liquor. But whore wa
the difference When the sale of an article
prohibited it is equvalentto denial Of its for how
else is TO procure 1t Perhaps the most hen0u
feature in the bill is contained in the Ola sec
tion which requires search of premises for liquor
On the oath oany rascal the house most respectable
citizens be searched. The old Saxon maxim that
every mans dwelling Is his CASTLE is to be overrilden
This great buwark is to be broken down and thus the
house Of American citizen will cease TO be bis castle
We say emphsticaly such law can never be executed
After riot and boodshed shall be perperaed there will
come Revision 10 scatter 10 the winds your despotic
law In Maine and Rhode Island SUCH law prevails.
There is vast difference between the people of those
States and Of State. Our people will meet the law
frankly You viii never be able to CONTRIBUTES will
scorn the provisions of the law. Not only vnous liquors
but fermented liquors prohibited Thus home brewed
ale beer mead and soda compositionsa fermented
to these regulations VIII marriage ceremonies be
celebrated with cold water Exhilrsting drinks
are essential to. the social as are particular
foods The best way to produce temperance is
10 encourage light and exhiraing drinks. The culture
ofthe grape in this country, therefore, wss which
should with the most strenuous advocacy temperate
good health nothing better than light, exhirating
drinks Law and order il not the vice OF times and
originate vice We have sympathy for the sordd
rumseHor who tempts to their ruin, but we have
spect for the well minded and worthy citizen If all
did our duty in our respective stations there would be
occasion for such lawsi We hold the inaienabe right
Of every decide how and how much he shall use of
whatever is his and at the time hold it 10
be the right Of society TO punish the oenses or crimes
resulting from their excessive or criminal use The mi
nority closed their report with the following resolutions
