Brltons Who Heard Frye

just as Mr.. Frye commenced his speech
ON the treaty, Tuesday, and while he was
paying to Great Britain the tribute of
taking care of the meanest of her subjects
in the farthcst corner of the globe, at
any cost, or at whatever sacrifice called
for, there filled into the reserved gallery
in the democratic side of the chamber,
some fifty representative Brtons, who
happened to be in the city, They were
members of the "Ancient and Honorable
Artillery of England, who came to this
country to join the Ancient and ilonora-
bles of Boston in their approaching an
nivsrsary. The Britishers paid the closest
attention TO the remarks of the Senator,
and smiled with satisfaction at his re-
ference to England's success in reaching
out for our markets. They remained un-
till the recess was taken, and several sat
the speech out, although over three hours
were occupied in its delivery.

The Boston journal, while discaming
any authority to speak for the party,
gives it rs its judgment that the National
Republican party will not restrict itself
to any one method of rrprc>Sing the
liquor traffic, but will consistently pursue
it, ant-saloon policy, adapting its meth
DDS to varying needs and conditions and
to the support of public sentiment-in-
sisting that the saloon shall be crippled
by every restraint and disability which
local public sentiment will sanction.

Why Men Drink,

That wonderful humorist, Tom Hood, once
remarked "Therc are five reasons why men
drink Good wine friend; because they are
dry; or at least they may be bye and bye; OF any
other reason why" The last is p,rhaps the
most common reason. James Parton once
headed an article "Nill the coming man drink -
but as he failed to answer the query we will cN-
press decided opinion that, until the coming
man learns to prize home social family ties
above all others, will he learn not to abuse his
own organism. In March last writer in the
"Mctdcdi Ayr" made some practical remarks
upon this subject, and offered timely hint
which prohibition advocates would do well to
note
lie says as long as the mpcrfeeions II
humanity remain untitled to its surroundings
and conditions, so long evil and misery will con.
tinue, and men seek refuge in strong drink.
Increase the sum of human happiness by what
ever means possible, lessen the burdens and
ameiioratc the woes Of mankind remove hum
ger, disease and pain by better physical and
moral education, and you will have pluCkcd out
the fangs Of that dire monster -intcmperancc.
