THE NOVEMBER FORUM.

The leading article in the November
number of The Forum will be discussion
of the taGh term question: by Professor
John Bach McMlJter, the historian, en-
Titled, "Tne Third Term Tradition" Mr..
McNIaster cities the well known histori-
cal precedents against presidential third
term, and thinks there is no reason 10
believe that tho old-time an.tipathy to a
third term is one whit less strong than ii
ever WAS MIR. N1cMatsar says that while
our practice of choosing presidents, not
because of their fitness but because o.
their availability, is in theory an wrong,
in practice no harm comes from it; for
under our form of government we do
not need "a president of extraordinary
ability; the ayerags man is good enough,
and for him two terms is ample. What
we want, in Mr.. McAIaster's opinion, is
q strong government of the people, by
Uae people, mot a government Of the peo-
pie by strong man, and we ought not
to Tolerate anything which mas even the
selnblance of here1lty. Mr. McMaster
counsels the advocates of third term
for Mr.. Cleveland to remember the doc
trine of the iIustrlous founder of their
party, that 'in no office can rotation
be more eXpedeint."

INCREASE OF ALCOHOL.

Sales Per Capita Are Startling Figures.
Astoria, Oregon, Oct. %, 1895.
Editor Astorlan:-
read your editorial in today's Issue on
the alcoholic liquor question in Europe
and the power.essness Of their statesmen
to hnnd.e 1t. VIII you permit me 10 say
few words along the same line OF
Thought as pertaining to our own coun-
try where the conditions are the same,
and call up In our minds the fact "that
the sam .uses always produce the same
effect under like circumstances" whether
on the Eastern or Western continent.
''Ex resident Harrison in his laGIt mes
sage to the American congress said that
there was paid to the wage earners in
une United States in 1880, the sum of
$1,22l 10000; and the official reports of
aLcolholic liquors Sotd in this country for
the year 1891 amounted to $1,223, ,OOO, OOO-
over S2,OOO,0OO more spent for liquor in
1891 than was canned by the wage earn
ems iIhe Same year.
The increase of lthe consumption of al
coholic liquors in the United States has
been since 1860, from about six gaIons
per capita up to the present time of over
Is gallons per capita, which we know
means equal to every man, woman and
dhiNd in THE United States. In 1860 the
liquor buSlnes in this country was $25, ,000,-
OOO in 1870, $25O,OO 900; in 1880, 10000 900,
and in 1890 it was over S9OO,OO0,OOO, which
shows that Jhe sales of alcoholic liquors
in cur own country has doubled every ten
years in so years' time.
The large sale of alcoholic liquors, over
and in comparison with any other busi-
ness 4 he United States, has been
Through the system of he American sa-
oon, whose proprietors, as shown by

1lf the traffic THAT makes them such
powerful factor in the politics Of this
country and Europe, and makes 1t diff
cult for any statesman to handle 1t in
the way Jhey have tried TO do.
Permit me in closing, 70 re.ale an anus
ing incident concerning our own city
which comes Ito mind while writing this.
1t was tod to me by the party himself
about two years ago. At .hat time the
party referred to was writing occasionally
for ON Eastern pape', published in his
native language. The editor of the paper
wrote him and wanted to know how
n.aay saloons There were in Astoria and
What nationality the proprletors were.
He said that he had counted over 60
eafloons between Uppertown and Union
town, and finding over two-thirds Of the
propretons of his own nationality, ne was
so ashamed of his city and his native
couutrymen that ne wouldn't comply with
the request. AN SERVER.
