EXCISE And TEMPERATURE.
THAT THE POOR MAN MAY KEEP
COOL ON BEER.

Among Mr. Lows callers yesterday at his head
quarters was delegation representing the United
Real Estate Owners Association. The delegation
had two appointments urge. and Incidentally a
word to say the excise question. The arguments
of the delegation in favor of open saloons Sun
day must have had considerable weight with the
Mayor-eiect, for he made public the statement
which the delegation left with him
The point in the statement which doubtless ap-
pealed most strongly to Mr.. Low was that saloons
should be left open Sunday in hot weather. so
that the poor man could drink enough beer to keep
cool In the discussion mp this time between
the opens and the shuts this cardinal feat
ure of the Sunday saloon propaganda has been
overlooked. Il left the United Real Estate
owners Association 10 discover the real issue in
the present excise agitation. In brief this issue is
whether not shall he permitted TO keep
cool Sunday.
The reticence Of Senator Plat and other
Republican leaders Is made clear. They were
simply waiting for the United Real Estate Owners
Association 10 put the question in concise form
With issue : forcihIy defined. ii Il believed
by the "Opens that the Senator. well all
the other upstate politicians win at once come out
in favor Of permitting the people OF this city 10
keep cool Sunday Nevertheless. since Senator
Platt spends his summers down by the breeze
swept Oriental Hotel and his upstate friends are
kept fairly cool 10y their sylvan environment II Is
possible that the point raised by the United Real
Estate Owners may fail OF proper appreciation.
The average upstate legislator Furthermore IS
as long headed as he is long Iimbed. Show him a
strike BILL and with almost prophetic instinct
he vii! be able to tell whether not IL IS worth
Introducing Accordingly, the excise question,
stripped Of all verbage and reduced 10 the plain
common sense issue of whether or not the people
of New-York shall be permitted TO keep cool on
Sunday NAV excite the dircst suspicious of evil
For example. an upstate leader, to whom was sub
mitted yesterday by Tribune reporter the issue
as presented by the United Real Estate owners
Association. said Immediately:
Yes but If we let the people of New-York drink
beer to keep cool on Sunday they would come right
back to Albany the next session and ask Tor open
saloons in winter. And the argument which they
would advance would be that the working men
should be permitted drink whiskey on winter
Sundays keep warm
In the statement which Mr.. Low made public. the
delegation said that their association represented
coo taxpavers. The statement closed with this:
The saloons should permitted to remain open
in the months June. July, August and Septem-
her Then il is that the mercury climbs up to 20
degrees in the shade. and the well-todo flee TO the
mountains and their less fortunate brethren are
compelled remain with their familis1in the city
