LITTLE LIGHT FOR ONE WALKING IN DARKNESS

SIR: In your prospectus for 1884 you say,
THE TRIBUNE is complete In news gives
with absolute fairness the best worth the attention
OF intelligent men and women. II warmly sympathizes
with every practical effort to restrict the traffic In
Intoxicating liquors"
Hundreds OF your readers know that large and enthu
sastc temperance and prohibition meetings have been
held In this city during the last few weeks OF them
addressed by such weknown speakers as Balm Of Ken
lucky and Finch Of Nebraska These same readers have
looked through TIE TRIBUNE In vain for any report or
even any notice. OF these meetings How do you reconcile
this with your sympathy for "every practical effort"
etci Is not prohibition practical eort"i or
we infer from your Cipher Citizens" editorial that you
do not favor prohibition at election timebut II pub
lish only such news "a to agree with your
views do You then Nvo the news "wth absolute fair
ness"i II has been said by some that as the party lead
ers have determined ignore the temperance question,
we must expect the party paper to adopt the same policy
Is that the We do not wish to believe IT but We
do think an explanation Is In order VIII You favor us

Netc- York, Nor. 27, 1888
fOur correspondent seems to be one Of those who
darken counsel from lack of knowledge. IL he had
studied the news and editorial columns of The
TRIBUNE with care, he would have seen that this
paper gives due attention to temperance matters
and temperance meetings. This is perfectly evil
dent, notwithstanding that report OF some partie-
ular meeting at some particular time may have
been crowded out by pressure of other matters.
Many of the meetings referred to by him were re-
ported in THE TRIBUNE. But some of the temper
ance organizations in this city, regret to say,
have fallen into the hands of foolish persons, who
are far more anxious for nooriety than for the good
of their fellow men, and who strive TO gain that
notorety by all sorts of antics and eccenrcities.
Careful, judcious argument and earnest,
sensible effort arc always sure of rec
IGNITION in these columns. Nothing is to be
gained for the temperance cause by
reportinQ wild harangues which observe no bounds
of reason, or by printing exaggerated claims of a
strength which does not exist Before the recent
election our Prohibition friends were sure of vote
of $4,000 at least in the State They had counted
noses" There could be mistake. And yet tho
official canvass makes their vote only lS,ZO5. Two
years go they mustered 25,7s Does this look as
if the Prohibition party in the State of New-fork
is increasing in strength Ed
