without being justly chargable with "mugwump-
cry and filibustering in politics. Only when we'll
meaning citizens become wise and candid enough
to rise above their old party preudices and cease
trying to do right thing in a wrong way, will
the whole abominable dramshop system be swept
out of existence by the stroke of political power.
The PeninSuIay Herald was edited and pub
lished by 81. Russell & Son. for about nine
years, when it purchased by Mr.. F. N New
man, and subsequently removed from Detroit to
Chicago.
But | have watched with most intense interest
the advancing and struggling forces of temperance
and Prohibition journalism And do not hest
tate to express the opinion that greater progress
has been made in this direction since the organiza-
ton of the Prohibition party, in 1862 than in all
the previous years in the history of the reform.
The Le0er, under J. A. Van Fleet, first appeared
in Michigan, then in Chicago Then came The
Voice, under DR.. I. K. Funk of New York, first
issued in September, 1884, then later taken to Chi
cago under management. Then, failing to
mention many lesser lights we return to Chicago,
where the party had its national beginning,
headed by The National Prohibitiomist under the
management of man who knows how to edit
frst-class Prohibition party newspaper. Let all
join in singing of it as we do the flag of our
country:
Long may it

political action" Furthermore, on the party
question as a clearly understood ISSUE | was
twice elected to the highest office in the gift OF
that order, and subsequently twice chosen to lee
ture for the order throughout its international
jurisdiction. 1t will therefore be naturally in
fered that the journals published under the aus
pices of the Good Templar organization were
generally open to communications setting forth
the claims of the party.
In nearly every state of the Union one or more
of such papers then being published; hence
the great debt of gratitude which the friends of
the party must owe to that temperance or
ganzation
Some five years before the formation of the
party, l began the publication Of the Peni11Snlar
Herald, thirty -columned weekly paper, price
50 90 year. This, to the best of my recollection,
the only journal in the country which at the
first gave full and hearty endorsement to the new
party. On the front page of its issue for Septem-
Der s, 1869, may be found the only tolerably full,
fair and reliable Journalistic report of the conven-
ton which gave the party its existence and its
name-a record of which no honest and intelli-
gent man need ever to feel ashamed. This
the Inauguration of sane and honorable method
of dealing with such public questions, according
to the genius of American politics. in my opinion,
the only way to an ultimate honorable victory

hibition President in the White House, and will
live to see one there, backed by Congress
pledged and elected to support him.
The Prohibition party never once in forty years
has had doubt of national victory
The brewers and the liquor men, aroused by
the rising tide of public sentiment against them,
have just one hope of temporary escape from
DOOM They have turned the trick before
and believe they can do it again
Beaten to the seeming verge of collapse, they
will get busy in the very hour of defeat, stab
the statute in the back through perjured officials
of license parties, and straightway flood the press
and confuse the people with their SANDER and
ridicule of deliberately nullifed and violated law
This is at once the secret of fifty years of
see-saw temperance agitation and the ncontest-
able warrant for the Prohibition party and its
creed
The national prohibitionist. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1907-1911, 1908-07-02

The Prohibition party is the friend and we'll
wisher of every enemy of the drink curse :
AS party it never did and never will quarrel
with those who in various ways are striving tor
the overthrow of the evil.
But for forty years it has never for a moment
swerved from its position, which each succeeding
advance has emphasized with growing significance,
that the final and complete victory of the reform
can never be achieved so long as the liquor
forces are permitted to remain equally divided
in the two dominant parties of the nation, where
they now are able to dictate the attitude and
policy of either one which may happen to be in
power.
By this strategy which for them is their only
salvation, the liquor have kept their grip
upon the lever of the nations politics, and main
tanned in Prohibition territory blighting end
less chain of spies and official traitors, whose
business it has been to connlve at criminal rum
selling and attempt to bring the law into dis
repute
The only effective remedy for this state of af-
fairs, which is rapidly becoming chronic in all
Prohibition states and communities, is that Of
fered by the Prohibition party.
Once the liquor politicians and the liquor lead
ers have been forced or driven by self-defense
into party by the long delayed political union
of their opponents, the era of duplicity and
vacillation this question will be over, and the
hour of permanent national victory have come.
With the inauguration of Prohibition in state
and nation under such auspices the noisy OBJ
jections and alleged defects of the policy, so
vociferously dinned into the ears of the people
by the brewer, would vanish in the twinkling of
an eye.
1t would be the first fair trial which Prohibi-
ton ever had.
If Prohibition, now besieged by its enemies,
with its execution largely in the hands of ndif
ferent and unfriendv parties, whose officials have
earned their spurs in the old school Of political
compromise, license and graft-if despite these
tremendous handicaps, Prohibition has proved
vast benefit in ten thousand towns and cities and
has become the sovereign law of eight states,
what success may it not achieve, when the
people decide to administer it through party Of
their own founded on this principle and heartily
devoted toSthe establishment Of The nnlicx2

years of my life, l may perhaps with pro-
prety claim to possess fair knowledge of the
underlying facts, principles, and social philosophy
which govern this greatest moral and political re-
form of modern times. Doubtless, however,
all have many useful lessons yet to learn on this
grave question before the problem is fully solved.
From the very beginning, temperance reform

press, have they lacked people quite competent
to write and edit in behalf of their cause The

1882, published at Albany, N. Y, lies near as

On January IS, 1887, the Journal of the Ameri-
can Temperance Union was issued. A monthly
sheet of great value to the cause, edited by DR..
John Marsh for nearly thirty years. 10 the sup
port of this Journal Mr. Edward c. Delavan
gave the muni6cent sum of $4,000 at one time.
To the Journal the National Temperance Ad0o-
cate of New York has been lineal and loyal
successor for over thirty years.
Dr. Marsh, in his Temperance Recollections"
says: while there were more than twenty local
temperance papers in the country, the committee
designed making the Journal a feeder of them
all, and not merely to them, but to the religious
and political press of the nation"
Previous to and at the time of the organization
of the Prohibition party, large proportion of
temperance journals published under the
auspices of the several secret temperance orders,
which had at that time taken up the work of the
reform. Chief among these was the Independent
Order of Good Templars. In truth, it may be
said that the party had its origin in the discussions
of that order.
For three successive sessions of the Right
Worthy Grand Lodge, the party received the COM
nendation and approval of the order, myself in

FOR HONOLULU

Official notification OF the passing
of an act by Congress, on March 3d,
for the appointment Of an inspector
of bulls and, an inspector of boilers
for this port was received today.
This is u good bit Of news for the
shipping people, as the inspectors
have been long needed here, 1t being
necessary to have men down from
the Coast to do this work, as matters
have always stood. 1t is probable
that some local men will receive the
appointments.
The need OF such men here is illus
trated in the case OF the lrmgard,
which was delayed from the sth to
the 18th in getting away this time,
owing to the fact that her license ex-
pired while she was here. and she
had to get another from the Coast.
