HAYES, HABITS.
The Ex-Presidenf's Pastor Gives HIS Rec.
ord on the Temperance Question.


Whether President Hayes was total
abStainer or not is question which is still dis
cussed, and the various statements made in the
press concerning the subject will doubtless raise
grave doubts in the mind of the future historian.
Rev. DIR. John Lanshan, the retiring pastor of
Foundry Church, who for several years, as pastor
of the church which the ex-President attended,
held intimate social relations with him and his
family and whose utteFances can be considered
authoritative, has written the following letter in
response TO inquiries from Rev. Dr. \. j. Morrison,
ofSt Louis:
1 have received your letter incIoSing a para
graph from the Philadelphia Times. in which the
statement is made that President Hayes is given
to drinking intoxicating liquors. Said statement
is without the shadow of foundation in truth. The
facts in regard to the presidential family are, in
brief, these: Mrs Hayes has always been, in prin-
ciple and practice, total abstaiEer from child
hood. Intoxicating liquors were never used in
ments or privately. On this subject the same
strictly temperance habits have been carried into
the White House General Hayes never i'll
when he was elected President he was not total
abstinence man, and did not become until
some months after ne had entered upon his Office
temperance in Official life, he became a total db-
staiRer, and has opposed the use Of Intoxicating
liquors by Precept and example Neither he nor
any one of his family, which includes three sons
who are voters. use liquor IN any form. While
some among US have criticised, ] know, of my own
personal knowledge, that representatives of for
eign governments have applaIded the practice of
the presidential family on this subject.
Such statements as those published in the Phila-
delphia Times are manufactured by
!. Political mSlignants of the base kind.
2. Whisky rings and enemies to temperance,
who just now are very anxious to break the force
of the grand example set before the Nation by its
Chief Magistrate and his family, hoping thereby
to promote the restoration of the old and demoral
izing practice of using intoxicating liquors in the
Executive Mansion Of the Nation.
3. But not least, disappointed Office seekers.
More than sixteen years of my ministry have been
spent in this city of Government Offices and Office
seekers. The good people throughout the country
would be amazed if they knew how much of the
and Cabinet officers ana their families, have
originated with political mendicants who have
been disappointed in their hunt for Office.
To reject their application for place is the IN
pardonable sin. Very truly yours. &c.
