NO LIQUOR FOR THEM
Odd Organization Among Con
gressmen at Washington. q.
Brief Sketch of the Congressional Tenn.
perance Sooiety-Some of the More
Famous Names on Its List ut
Membership,

A temperance society composed OF
congressman sounds odd-almost para
doxical. Such an institution does ex.
list, however, and has fourished for
more than half a century. Daniel
Webster was member of it, although
there is plenty of evidence that he
didn't always live up to its principles
The brief history of its organization,
which is given by the Washington Star,
is particularly timely and interesting
just now in view of the recent cele-
bration of the ninetieth birthday OF
that grand old man of the temperance
movement, Gen. Neal Dow.
The Congressional Temperance So
ciety was organized February 26, 1888,
three months before the first national
temperance convention ever held in
this country, which met at Philadel-
phia in May of that year. In the old
senate chamber, now occupied by the
supreme court, under the leadership of
such men as Edward Everett, Daniel
Webster, Horatio Seymour, Lewis Cass,
Felix Grundy, George NJ. Dallas, George
n. Briggs, John Blair and William
Hendricks, the society sprang into be.
ing. Lewis Cass, secretary of war,
was chosen president, and Theodore
Freylinghuysen, senator from New Jer-
sey, submitted a constitution, which
was adopted and signed by one hun
dred members of the senate and house
of representatives The following is
the preamble to this constitution:
"As the use of ardent spirits is not
only unnecessary but injurious; as it
tends to produce pauperism, crime and
wretchedness and to hinder the eff
cacy of all means for the intellectual
and moral benefit of society and also
to endanger the purity and perma.
hence of our free institutions, and as
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1894-05-26

one of the best means of counteracting
its deleteriouS effects is the influence
of united example,
therefore, we, members of con-
gress and others, recognizing the prin-
ciple of abstinence from the use Of
ardent spirits and from the traffic in
it as the basis of our union, do hereby
agree to form ourselves into a society,
and for this purpose adopt the follow.
ing constitution, and so forth.
The object of the society is given,
ito discountenance by example and by
kind moral influence the use of ardent
spirits and the traffic in it throughout
the community"
On this basis the association carried
on its work with more or less activity
for many years. In 1876, under the in
spiration of such men as Vice President
Wilson and Senator Buckingham, Of
Connecticut, the society became spe-
cially alive to the great purpose of it's
existence, and has enjoyed increasing
usefulness and prosperity since that
tine. On its roll from the beginning
