sorwho Is decidedly ON the other side at the
question
As nobody pleads for liberty Ia use
Intoxicating beverages to excess. the
only issue Is between their general or
moderate use on the one hand, aud
their absolute disuse ON the other. II
the moderate use could bc so regulat-
ed as never to involve cNcess, there
could he no controversy on the sub
iect. But wherever the experiment
is nude, there always have been, and
always will be Il percentage of sad fail
ures aud II is these failures which
force upon men thealternativoo of Total
Abstinence How large is the percen

inferred from the fact thNt almost all
the ntemperauce of our day aud
country Is the fruit of what is known

The worst part of the case is. that aS
the ranks Of the Incorporate are piss

prepared To pcrpetuate the horror.
We naturally ascribo chief reapon-
slbilitY for this result to the saloons,
which IN recent times have shown
wonderful skill in promoting their
trade, aud are running and running
our political system i'll their exclusive
interests. But the common frequenters
of saloons always and Justly cite the
example OF upper classes rs their en-
enlargement, Back of the saloon are
the usages of society, often in its gent
Ter sections, which present some form of
liquor drinking as belonging to refine
mcut and hospitality. Judged by
