whether it ls not hypoclicy.
When Mr.. Townsend was tp-

commended the President for

THE PEERAGE AND THE BEERAGE.

England's Titled Disnitaries Make Their
Money Gut OF Liquor Saloons.
The mobile peerage' Of England is fast
becoming known as the *'noble beerage."
A recent publication by the English gov
ernment discloses the fact that 152 peers
of the realm own 1,539 drinking places,
an average of more than ten to each peer.
Lord Salisbury, who is now prime min
ister, owns saloons (or ''public houses'),
the Bishop of Llendaff owns 2, the Earl
Of Derby owns ~, the Duke of Bedford
48, the Duke Of Devonshire ~, the Earl
of Cawdor 80, the Duke Of Rutland 81,
the Earl of Dudley 35, the Duke Of North
cumberland "a and the Duke of Portland
49, Isn't it beautiful to see these aristo-
cratic peers using their capital and in
fuence to establish 'spoor mems clubs"
throughout the kingdom! "In London
alone 10000 liquor shops are owned by
monopolists, companies, syndicates and
wealthy individuals. the nominal tenant
being mere bartender, who has no in
terest whatever in the business" The
noble peers seem to have improved on an
old saying and are ready to declare, "Let
me own the saloons Of a nation, and I
care not who make the laws" and they
are accordingly now buying up the beer
and whisky business in America.
Last year Lord Saiisbury's govern
ment introduced a compensation bill to
pay every proprietor of a public house
who failed to get his license renewed
money enough out of the national treas
ury to compensate for a loss Of his busi-
ness. Piteous appeals were made in be-
half of the poor and toiling publicans.
But it now appears that a large proper
ton Of the money coming in taxes from
the people would have gone into the
pockets of these wealthy landlords,
brewers, syndicates and ''peers of the
realm"
Gladstone:s government was defeated
the last time on the beer tax. In the
saloon dwells today, both in England
and America, the political power,
purchasable by the highest bidder,
which makes and unmakes rulers and
laws. It is weapon which wealthy in
justice always finds available for its
most outrageous ends. It is indeed the
.spoor mans club" but club which the
unscrupulous capitalist wields. It ia
the poor mans simply because he feels
its weight, and the men who tell him so
are his uuest friends and safest leaders.
The liquor saloon must co. Voice.

Y isitors to HeiGelburg Castle, one of
the principal sights of Baden, are sure TO
be shown the great tnns which still stand
in the vaults beneath the castle. The
largest one will hold forty-nine thousand
gallons of wine, and in the days when it
was IN use the liquor was carried to the
banquet hall above by means Of pipes and
pumped up as needed.
The top of the immense hogshead, be-
side which an ordinary sized one looks
like thimble, Is reached by a fight of
over fifty steps, and is large enough for
q small hall.
In an adjoining cellar are twelve other
great tuns said to contain ten thousand
gallons each. Near by is a grotesque
wooden figure of Perkeo, dwarf, once
the court jester, said to have drunk six
teen bottles of wine every day, and never
known to go to bed sober.
AS one turns away from the ruined
castle and its tales of other days, he feels
that he has listened to silent lecture on
| the eyils Of intemperance, and resolves
| that his influence shall ever be on the
| right side of the great question which
confronts us to day.

on this occasion, and furnish your guests

excuse himself. 1T won't do" was the
reply. The Prince would think himself
nsulted if he came here and no wine
were offered him." The doctor made no
further Argument, but when the Prince
arrived he introduced the subject him

he said, that it is usual to have wine
