better conditions saw the futiIity of any
attempt by individuals by individual So
cieties to cope with the united, organized
aud profitable liquor traffic. nd saw the
necessity for united action In OBJ ostson.
Plans Too Narrow.
Recognizing this necessity many at
tempts had been made to unite the temper
ance forces before the Anti-Saloon League
was organized, but these had all failed be-
cause the attempts were made to organize
with too many restrictions. The plans
were too narrow.
ITO succeed In so great an undertaking,
ths organization must be broad enough and
liberal enough to admit to affiiiation, on
equal terms, all who oppose the liquor
traffic and the drink habit. and who favor
the prohibition, by law, OF the manufacture,
importation, expectation and sale OF intox-
lea ting liquors for drinking purposes.

platform. The Saloon Must Cor the Anti
Saloon League of the District of Columbia

TO PURIFY SALOONS.
Stand Taken by the United States
Brewers Association.

The United States Brewers Association,
which has just closed It's annual convention
at Indianapolis, has, 1t Is stated, reiterated
its determination to put the brewing In
dustry upon nigh plane and make the
products of the industry more of national
drink than at present. The convention, by
the resolutions. "congratulates the many
brewing associations In states and cities
that have taken the lead in Graduating low
and vile resorts and in refusing to supply
beer to saloons that were not approved
by the public sentiment of their respective
communities"
It was added that all our members con-
tinue In this wise policy. so that the Ameri-
can public may be the more quickly taught
that American beer is a promoter OF genu-
inc temperance, a beverage for the home
and Preside"
The determination was reached to urge
every brewer to SO work that the time may
speedily arrive when fair public will
fully understand and appreciate the true
value of our product, both as food and as
g. beverage, and we recommend that each
brewer frequently call attention to the fact
that there is so little alcohol in beer as not
to produce drunkenness, when drank un-
mixed with ardent stimuIants.
The assertion was made that 1.-The I'M
mense increase In the consumption OF
American beer has done more to establish
SOOElety lltdii ali Inc pfoEiUtofy laws ia
existence and will, we believe. be the means
of true solution Of the drink problem
and the establishment Of ideal temperance,
besides showing the confidence the Ameri-
can public has In the purity and value OF
the national drink"
During the convention it was brought out
that the Texas brewers have for two years
spent $4,000 each month in closing vile
saloons and low dives. The association has
the best legal talent. corps Of trained
detectives and secures It's own evidence
against saloonkeepers who do not run or
derby places. 1t Is stated that the detec-
tives Of the Texas brewers close three
times as many saloons as the police off,
Gals of the various cities.
The intention of the brewers OF the coun-
try is It Is announced. TO make beer a drink
that can be taken in q soda water fountain
or anywhere else without subJecting any
one to criticism.
