MEETING OF THE BREWERS AND LIQUOR DEALERS IN
CINCINNATI.
From the Cincinnati Commercial, Aug 49,
Many OF the most prominent liquor dealers Of this
city, together with committee from the Brewers
Association, met on Saturday evening, at the st.
Charles Exchange, for the purpose of consulting in
regard to the best manner Of protecting their nte
rests and to devise some plan for State and city
organization.
Mr.. John W. Garrison, of the Madison House, was
called to the chair, and Mr.. Mosey Ezekiel appointed
After the object Of the meeting had been stated
by the President
Mr.. EZEKIEL read some extracts from the con-
stitution and bylaws of the Liquor Sellers Associa
ton Of the State Of New York. Among the articles
in the constitution was one binding the members to
vote for each end every candidate who should be
nominated by convention Of liquor dealers. Mr.. +.
stated that there were now one hundred and sixty
thousand voters belonging to the New York associa-
ton, each of whom paid four dollars annually into
the treasury, in quarterly instruments He proposed
that similar organization be instituted in this city
and State.
Mr.. FRANK LINcK gave brief review of the pur
poses for which the Brewers Association had been
organized. The first object to be obtained was mu.
tual protection. The present liquor law was odious
enough, but unless strenuous and active measures
were taken to defeat the designs Of the temperance
party, the next Legislature would pass an act not
only prohibitory, but Of seizure and coniiscaton.
committee from this body had been annointed 70
