The Liquor Question in congress


Efforts have been made from time to time
for several years TO get CongTess.to take some
action on the liqGor and temperance ques-
tions. A bill looking to that enc was intro.
duoed at the present session, proposing to
create a commission to inquire into the
liquor traffic in relation to sits general eco
nomlc. criminal, morsl. and scientific as
pects," etc. The bill was referred to sui
committee, with our Congressman, Hon.
VIII z English, Chairman. The committee
by Mr.. English, reported adversely on the
bill, day before yesterday and the report
was concurred in by the House. The fol.
lowing is the report
The power to regulate the retail LIQUOR traffic
has, from the foundation Of the Union, been re-
gaTded the exclusive right OF the States rather
than of the General Government. Attempts have
been made b some OF the States 10 entirely pro
hibit the manufacture or sale OF spirituous or
malt liquors, but with little appare Il success,
and the interest Of intempeTanCe and soDrieiy
would seem to demand wise and stringent
laws rather than lmpracucable efforts at
absolute prohibition. To the several states
of the United states properly belongs the right TO
enact such local police regulations as viii throw
every proper restriction a ound toe liquor traihc
compatible with the personal and property rights
OF citizens, but uniform regulations enacted By
Congress- practically suited 10 the different wants
and requirements OF the people OF all the various
states would be difficult 10 frame and more diff
cult to enact Any attempt to control the personal
habits or private conduct OF the individual shOu1
be opposed so long as he does not interfere nth
the personal rights OF others and the peace and
order OF society in general. As IL is matter OF
grave doubt whether Congress has the right 10
regulate the liquor traffic ia the several States of
pressing or urgent necessity for the passage ottbis
bill. your committee holds that il is not advisable
10 az upt to exercise doubtful powers, which ap-
pear more properly to belong to the States them
selves.

THE Secretary OF the Treasury has perhaps
the hardest berth Of all the Cabinet officers.
A writer who is posted says that he has an
enormous amount Of drudgery. he is
obliged for three hours at least every day to
sit and merely write his name. He has to
hear arguments in appeal cases from his
various bureaus, and to receive delegation
after delegation representing commercial in
terests. The customs regulations of the
country seem TO be made for the purpose of
hsrassing and annoyiDgimporters to the last
degree. They are constantly making appeals.
The Secretary of the Treasury must hear
them. In this way he is burdened with
great amount of work.

OF the late Pre- identisl campaign we saw
Thousands of hard-working miners driven
out by armed force to give place to cheap
contract Italian labor. The interior mines
Of these States are largely worked by similar
labor. The West Shore Railroad cut OF New
York was largely constructed by Italian con-
tract labor. Even in Indiana we had throes
Ct violence a few weeks since (at South
Bend in which Italian cheap labor
was conspicuous. And yet the capitalists
and monopolists employing these cheap
foreign wage workers have clamored for the
retention OF the Republican party in power
as representing 1.-The Americon system of
protection to American labor" What a
farce has this cry not been?
What an oppression has not the protection
system been upon American wage workers?
A high tariff has made high priced all COM
modlties they must use. But there has been
no tariff upon the Importation OF pauper
and cheap European labor whose compet.
ton has driven down the wages OF American
labor and forced it out OF employment.
And now, after Republican legislation has
brought COO 600 to want, Republican Sena-
tor Ingalls, rises to confess the error and pro-
pose for remedy that further importation of
contract labor be stopped. Certainly the
Republicans can now afford to Go that, since
their protected fsvorites have made a
thousand millions of money for themselves
and starved 100000 people into a condi-
ton where to live they must accept the
wages of E0ropesn pauper labor. Such
have been TIE results Of the American sys.
tenn of protection to American labor.
