temperance" Replies to DIR. D. e.

"Temperance" Replies to DR.. d. e.
j. Bell.
Mr.. Editor: I have just read,
with pleasure, reply to some OF
my arguments by my friend, DIR.
D. A. J. Bell, of Parksville. DR..
Bell is not only one of the beet
men in our County, but he ia, also,
one of the most intelligent; and
l am always glad to have his
opinion concerning public lues-
tion, whether [ agree with him OF
not.
DIR. Bell is right when be states
that the Old Testament sholld be
construed with reference to the
state of civilization at the time it
was written. After showing, how
ever, that the Old Testament for
bids the Incorporate use of alec
holic liquor, but does not forbid
it's temperate use, [ proved, by
quoting many passages, that the
same doctrine is taught by the
New Testament. I stated, too, that
there is not. in the entire Bible, a
passage that contradicts the pas
sages that quoted. If I am IN
error, my friend ought to quote
such a passage, and set me right.
Until he does that. it is utterly
useless for him to "argify" against
my position.
DR.. Bell says: "The Scripture be
quotes is all right, but we know
that the wines drunk then were
made from fruits, and a person
that had the stomach of a COW
that could hol1 a gallon and was
hoggish enough, could get drunk
on it, but the people drank it for
It's fruit flavor, and as a food, it

alcohol
think it is safe to assume that
ne wine made from the fruits OF
Palestine was very much like the
wine thai we make from fruits at
lhe present day. We know that
less than gallon of our gral,e or
c.dcr wine will make tho average
man drunk. If my fri nd |as any
proof that the grapes of Palestine
e ,utained less alcohol than the
