A GREAT many good people are misunder-
stood in this world, and the brewers in con-
gress declare that they belong to this class.
They protest against being classed with the
manufacturers of distilled spirits, not that
their product is entirely out of that line, but
is very far removed. The statistics of arrests
for drunkenness in New York bear them out,
the number in those precincts where whiskey
is generally sold being about Jour times as
large as in those where beer is the principal
beverage. 1t can, however, be further stated
that in those precincts where neither is sold,
that the arrests for drunkenness or any other
breach of the peace are very rare, while there
are thousands in the others.
