THE ISSUE JOINED.

The members Of the United States
Brewers association evidently realize
that it is a condition and not theory
which confronts them. The condition
Is an awakened public sentiment
which threatens the overthrow of a
business which has brought to them
no small gain. Their deliberations
during the meeting of the association
in Milwaukee last week strongly indf-
cate that they are alive to this fact.
It is claimed by persons well informed
In regard to the matter that the CAPT
tai OF the brewers assembled in
convention in Milwaukee aggregates
over a billion dollars. 1t may or
may not be pertinent to here inquire
what have they given to the people in
return for such gains. The resOlu-
tions adopted by the association
clearly show that the liquor advocates
are aware Of the fact that they have
been placed on the defensive. They
know that nearly all of the southern
states have declared against the
saloon, and that the phrase " the
solid South - has acquired a new
and better meaning than it has had
in the past. They know further that
revolutions do not go backward. The
revolt against the encrOachments of
the liquor power has become wide
spread being confined to no section
of the country in particular.
Knowing these things, liquor dealers
and liquor manufacturers have, for
the time at least, ceased to denounce
as cranKs and fanatics all who are
opposed to the traffic. They are
seriously asking themselves what
they can do to prevent the spread of
prohibition sentiment. Their resolve
TO assist in the abolition Of the inn
moral saloon is good so far as it
goes; but their determination to create
a sentiment in favor of liquor drink
ing both in the home and in what
they are pleased to term the respect
able saloon is not in harmony with
the progressive spirit of the age. 1t
was first said by brewer of genius,
Mr.. Charles Buxton, member of the
British parliament, that drink had
produced evils more deadly, because
more continuous, than those caused
to mankind by the great historic
scourges of war, famine and pesti-
lence combined. A writer says that
the great commoner Gladstone quoted
the statement, she accepted it; he
endorsed it with all the weight of his
high position, of his immense expert
ence, of his vast knowledge of man
kind"
This is the sum of the whole mat
ter: 1t is because people have come
to realize that strong drink has
caused, and is causing, more misery
to humanity than war, pestilence and
famine combined that an enlightened
Christian sentiment demands that
restrictions be placed upon it. The
financial interests of the liquor manu-
facturers lie in the removal of restrict
ions and an increased use of their
products. But the people in general
are daily becoming more firmly con-
WINGED that the moral and material
welfare of the country will be best
promoted by less and lesser consump-
tion of those products. Upon these
lines the issue is joined.
