WHISKEY MEN
Heartily in Favor OF Temper
ance," So They Say.


tective Association, in its first cir
cular letter to the whiskey trade
relative to the defense the distill-
ers and dealers expect TO make for
their business, says:
To the Trade; 1t ie very evil
dent that those restless spirits who
ever indulge the natural but illu-
sive hope to
"Compound for sins they are in
clined to
BY damning those (often so-called
sins) they have no mind to, !"
are particularly active at the pres
ent in their efforts to suppress by
law all traffic in various sections Of
the country in alcoholic stimulants,
The time has come when prompt
and united action is demanded in
order to show the fallacy of the
Prohibition movement against the
liquor trade, both from an econom-
ic and moral standpoint. In doing
this we proclaim ourselvas as being
heartily in favor of temperance,
which is always a virtue, but we
protest against any confusion In
similarity of the meaning of tenn
perance and of enforced bstinence,
which are as antipodal to each
other as the North Pole is from the
South, or as light from darkness.
We believe that God created man a
free agent, and individually re-
sponsible; that He gave him the
world and the good things thereof
to enjoy, but never to abuse.
We further believe that it is as
inconsistent with Gods plan in
creating man for one class of men,
who cannot enjoy His blessings
without abusing them, to assume
that because of their weakness they
must force all Others to deny them
selves the use of any article that
such cannot enjoy, as it would be
for those who are strong enough to
enjoy Gods blessings, to force
others who are too weak for such
enjoyment to use them. Therefore,
we believe it to be our duty, not
only in defense of our business, but
in defense of our good names and
of civil and religious liberty, to
use our utmost efforts to convince
the public of the utter inconsist-
ency, fallacy and immortality Of
any effort to suppress the legiti-
mate traffic in alcoholic stim ulants
Such an effort >on the part of Pro
hibitionists we believe to be thor
oughly contrary to the inherent
rights of man, which cannot be
eradicated by any law that man
can make, and which is so revolt
ing to every intelligent and worthy
citizen that when he lives in sec
tion under Prohibition law he is
often compelled to elect between
violating the law and thereby los
ing his self respect, or submitting
to it, with sense of humiliation
that must make him a eontemner
of the law. Therefore, in order to
contribute what we can toward the
defeat of Prohibition laws in the
United States, movement has
been started in this city to organ
ize nationally in defense of our
principles, and we hope you will
lend the movement your cordiaI
support.

According to a treasury report
there is no such thing as a burglar
proof safe. A new chemical com
pound, known as thermite, when
mixed with magnesium powder,
will destroy the hardness of metal
and enable a burglar to cut through
it with ordinary tools. All profess
sional burglars know this and it is
well for others to know it too. Safe
robbers were never SO numerous as
now and there must be some pro-
lection beside the safe itself.
