THE AFFAIR IS STILL A MYSTERY
 THE LIQUOR PROBLEM.
Editor Thompson's Lecture on the
 Economic Aspects of it.

Editor Thompson's Lecture on the
 Economic Aspects of it.
 Chicago, April 2O.-t'The danger in the huge national liquor bills reaches beyond misery and degradation. Civil ization is menaced by the growing economic waste
 With this statement, D. D. Thomp- son, editor of the Northwestern Christ ian Advocate. opened lecture last night on Economic Aspects of the Lii quor Problem S&
 He said that in view of the danger was not the idea of prohibitionist fanatic, but of the scientific inyesti- gator, Dr E. R. l.. Gould, lecturer on social economics and statistics in Johns Hopkins university, special commts- sioner of the United States department of labor, who had investigated the ef- fects of the use of liquor in Europe and this country.
 s'The most important though as yet scarcely observed, new phase of the temperance movement he continued lis the economic. The economic phase is so many sided and appeals to so many selfish interests that it attracts classes of men who regard the moral aspects of temperance with indiffer- ence.
 Business men and workmen will in time come to realize that the liquor problem concerns them vitally, and that the $1,00o, 100000 now annually spent for drink in this country would settle many liquor problems and help to settle many more.
 Perhaps the most important lesson to be impressed upon the rising genera tion is that their business and indus trial future will depend upon whether they use alcohol''

charge and is now in the hands of DIR.
Michel, the city physician, who intends
examining it to determine whether
there are any foreign substances in the
product or not. The practice of diff

mix some other ingredient with the
butter and increase the quantity. Only
one other arrest has been made for this
offense and 1t is thought that this will

practice of 1t lesson. 1t has been
most difficult task to discover who
had this quality of butter on the mar
