1t is thought by very many of the most active
lends Of Temperance that the cause could be great
ly advanced in this State, by more judicous con-
centration of purpose and effort on the part of The
various Temperance organizations, the Church and
the public generally, by association in some State
ganzation similar in plan and scope to that of the
Massachusetts State Temperance Alliance" which
organization has existed in that State for upwards of
twenty-five years, and embraces in active member
ship, members of all the various Temperance organ
izations as well the Clergy and Church OF almost
every denomination; receiving and dsbursing from
fourteen to eighteen thousand dollars every year au-
thenticaing and sending out Lecturers into every
portion of the State; arranging public meetings
and supplying speakers, and closely watching the
Temperance pulse, and providing means and meas
ares to keep it in healthy and vigorous state care
uly scrutipizing all legislation, and ready at all
slmes to sound the alarm when encroacbme from
the enemy are attempted. With view to organiz-
ing similar Alliance in Maine, and auxiliary to the
to the National Temperance Alliance, the under
signed invite the friends of Temperance to meet at
