TOTAL ABK7INENCH.

EDITOR ADVANCE: trust you will
allow me space in your valuable col
umns for few wsrds upon what has
been the all-engaging topic during the
past few months, to-wit: the liquor
question. We do not wish to side
with either party. either illegal dealers
in liquor or the temperance fanatics.
alias church bigots, who are so loud ia
condemnation Of the latter. But one
thing we ask: Why do these fanatics
pres,stently try to interpret temper
ance AS total abstimence? That they
do so is clearly proven by their making
all men intemperate who use liquor.
Temperance, we hold. is the use and
not the abuse of any of Gods temporal
gifts, and liquor is given to us by God,
to use. The so-called temperance,
really total abstinence) party would
have it put away far ont of reach, SC
that no man could tonch it. T:.e,
where is the virtue in being temperate.
and that temperance is virtue, is one
of the grand rnottos they hurl at US in
temperate men who use liquor. The
presence Of the baneful stuff in oul
midst We know Is grave temptation
We liken it unto the tree Of knowledge
of good and evil, which God chose tt
place in the garden where dwelt oul
first parents. Twas a grave tempta
tiOn to them, but God had given then
tile attribute of free will, the will t.
choose between good and evil, which
was at the same time power to over
come temptation. This attribute
makes man one degree above the brute
All men have been endowed by the Al
mighty with this great attribute, ant
the man who wishes to get the tempta
tion (liquor) out of his way because h
is afraid to undergo the ordeal of fac
ing it, and who is obliged to bind hi
| conscience with an oath because he i!
afraid to use one of God 8 temporal gift'
as is the case with temperance fanat
les. filings from, him that attribute
| which God endowed him with, ant
thereby makes himself one degree low
er than the brute. ANON.
