Turns on Purity Movement He SUD-
ported 10 Lease Them to
Brewers.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Earl OF Dy-
sart has just furnished a striking ex-
ample of the sacrifice of principle to
profit by no means rare in the British
aristocracy. Not long ago he figured
at meeting in support of Earl Grey's
public house trust movement, which
has for its object the dimInution of
the drink evil by making saloons and
taverns less exclusively places for the
sale of intoxicants. The scheme is
much like that which Bishop Potter
aided in New York. For rts success ii
is essential that such houses should
not be owned by the large breweries,
whose interests necessarily lie in SELL
ing as much beer as possible.
On Lord Dysart's estates are several
licensed public houses which he owns.
Recently he served notice on the occu-
pants of the termination of their ten
ancies in April next, but they were
informed that they would be able to
tender for their respective houses on a
twenty-one-year lease. The same priv
ilege was extended to the brewers and
as was anticipated the tenants were
outbid by local brewery firm, with
the result that each of the pubs" will
be converted from free" to tied
house.
The noble landlords action has nat
urally aroused much criticism. If his
seat in the House of Lords were an
elective one he would certainly lose it
at the next general election, but as an
hereditary peer he can afford to disre-
gard public opinion and pocket his
principles with his profits.

The efforts of ambitious and persis-
tent correspondents to the seat of war
have been attended. in the main, with
only Indifferent success. Illness has
played havoc and Intellectual attempts
to pass through sacredly guarded lines
have frustrated the plans OF many en-
deavorers. Journalists and writer's at
large fully comprehend the enormity
of the schemes necessary to enter upon
a field so prolific in Stories but the
way has been made, the enviable
ground about Port Arthur invaded and
the ingressor rising young writer of
this city and Los Angeles. Richard
Barry has the scoop of the war and
his wares are marketable to the fullest
extent. Personal glory to him aside,
he is the only American who has
achieved any latitude of correct knowl-
edge which is being avidiously recog-
nized by Golfers, McClure's, the Cen
tury and also by leading weeklies of
London, Berlin, Paris and Rome.
Mr.. Barry bespeaks himself with
modesty though mingled with natural
