THE MORAL SIDE or 1T.

The Mugwumplsh New YORK Times
hits the situation very cleverly and stout
ly in these words:
Some months ago the ''uncrowned
king of the Republican party expressed
the opinion that it would be a great mis-
take to abolish the internal revenue tax
on whisky, because it was a great aid to
the temperance cause and had decreased
the consumption OF whisky per capita at
least 40 per cent. There is" he said,
"a moral side to this question" The
indianapolis Journal, the special home
organ OF the Republican candidate for
president, is one of those Republican
newspapers which boldly accept and de-
fend the free whisky plank of the" plat
form of the party. 1t says:
Whenever you hear anybody yawp-
ing about the free whisky
plank Of the Republican party on
temperance grounds. set him down as a
fraud. All advanced temperance thought
favors the repeal OF the government tax
on liquors. The objection to the free
whisky plank comes only from the advo
Gates of free trade too dishonest and cow
ardly to confess their real opinions"
Here we have the chief spokesman of
Gen. Harrison at his own home, in effect
chsracterizing the most significant part of
Blaine's Paris message as a ''yawp' and
setting the man himself down as a
fraud" He is evidently devoid of lad
vanced temperance thought" and if we
press the inference to the end he must be,
in the Journals opinion, an advocate of
free trade too dishonest and cowardly to
confess his real opinions; for the merits of
the question of removing the tax on whis-
ky have not been changed by the adoption
of the Chicago platform.
