THE BREWERS
ARE DEFENDED
President of Association
Says the Saloon is Great
ly Misunderstood.
BY Associated Press.

Milwaukee, Wis, June 9.-The chief
event of this mornings session of the
United States Brewers Association,
now in annual convention here was
the address of President Julius Lieb-
mann, who spoke as follows:
In spite of the fact that our beer
is universally pure, and that the lead
ing Psychologists are so thoroughly
agreed as to its value, the brewer
finds himself held UP to obloquy and
scorn, and in many states his business
is in danger of confiscation. What is
the cause of this clamor? 1t is, we
believe, the fact that very few Of the
men and women who preach prohibit
ton have any frst-hand knowledge of
the saloons. They do not enter them,
even for purposes of observation, and
they certainly do not know that by
far the large majority of saloons are
decent and respectable, and do not
tolerate drunkenness and disorder.
1T is of the utmost Importance
that the salooRkeeper should respect
the laws, but the constant injustice
melted out to him under the guise of
laws, is a force which tends to I'M
dermine this respect.
The problem of the saloon is one
of administration by the trade. From
either standpoint it is a complex
problem, which cannot be settled in
the off-hand fashion that seems so
easy to superficial observers.
THE point which | want to empha-
size in considering This question OF
saloon administration is that saloon
reforms cannot be brought about by
the brewers individually. But the
brewers, as an organization, can &C
complish a great deal, though their
organization power has not yet been
fully tested.
THE regulation of the saloon has
been needlessly complicated by ex
perimental legislation, party politics
| police corruption and inefficiency
I Fixed and arbitrary limitations i'm.
posed upon communities by the state
without regard to local conditions
! have only Increased the difficulty To
keep the saloon out of politics, il
must first be taken out of politics
And the best way to keep it in poll
tics is to provide by local option laws
for the constant agitation of the Ii
| cenSe question, with the element o.
| harassing uncertainty which that in
| wolves. In recent years the saloon
has been growing to be less and less
political factor Today it threatens
to become the biggest political issue
in our history.
With a situation of this character
confronting US, and with our property
| interests involved. with the millions
and millions of dollars invested IN
der the sanction OF the law, can any
one expect us to remain idle while
this property is confiscated?
| 1T is our duty to hasten universal
enlightenment and to spread the con
viction that our industry stands fol

word. and viii neither countenance

certain lines by the expression by
w. A. BIount of his legal opinion.
The Legal Status.

Mr.. Blount began by stating that
the board of directors had been Sc
lected, and not elected, for the time
being, until certain legal forms had
been gone through with, contingent
upon the corporation becoming a
reality, and the securing of the letters
patent. These men, he said, are for
the time being, mere figure heads,
and Will remain 50 until the first
meeting to occur after the corpora
ton had been formed. Ehis board OF
selected men however. according to
Mr.. Blount. can be empowered to Sc
lect officers. who would be subject to
the same rules as TO authority and
length of office as themselves, but
the members OF which would be al
lowed to act in the interests OF the
company until the organization had
been legally perfected! Nothing, in
fact, Mr. BIount stated, could be done
of a binding nature until the corpo-
ration is perfected, or in about thirty
DAYS

CARD OF THANKS.

While thanking my friends for
their liberal and cordial support in
the first PRIMARY, 1 now request one
and all to be equally as liberal In
their support on June 18th, next, at
the second primary.
Lacking only a few votes of having
a clear majority over both OF my
opponents at the first, / feel assured
of a majority at the second primary,
that will be large enough to be con-
Nincfng.
With my friends on the alert from
now until the close of the polls on
June 18th there will be no doubt
about the result.

FOR
MAYOR

A frameup is growing among re-
publicans to head off James T.
ONO, announced candidate for the
republican nomination, against
Mayor Moore, in favor of d. NJ
Thompson. the real estate man
This information gained circula.
ton yesterday through a meeting
of republicans of the civic clubs
who plan to run Thompson agains,
both ONO and Mayor Moore, hop
ing that either Moore or Thomp-
son will defeat ONO, preferably
Thompson.
The morning paper, which has
hitherto backed Mayor Moore, is
said to be backing Thompson now
Its clique of satellites, it is said, are
grooming both Moore and Thomp.
son without knowing which one to
start. Gordon Corbaley is under.
stood to be engineering the ar
rangement.
Although it is not expected that
things political will warm up until
after New Year, yet there is an un.
der current in favor of certain can.
didates. Thompson is the latest in
the field. His entrance makes II
almost certain that State Senator
Hutchinson will run. Mr.. Hutchin'
son was mentioned some time age
by his friends. but evinced little in
terest and finally announced that
he was not in it at all. However
it has become known that those
opposed to Thompson are trying to
prevail upon Hutchinson.
1t is expected that Lew C.
Brown, democrat and former co0n
Gilman, will announce his candid
acy soon and put a working force
into the field. Thus far 1t is
known that only Brown and N. s
Pratt will try for the democratic
nomination.

name has frequently been men,
toned in connection with the Cor
don-Root matter, says that Judge
Gordon is victim of corrupt rail-
road practices that have prevailed
in this state for years; that Judge
Gordon did not owe the Great
Northern railroad a cent, but had
expended every dollar entrusted to
him for the benefit Of the COM
pany.
Z Mr.. Nuzum says Judge Gordon
and the head of the legal depart
ment of the Great Northern at st.
Paul had difference of opinion
as to how the money entrusted to
Judge Gordon had been spent, but
that Judge Gordon could show that
the money was expended in the
service of the company.

an unfit man for the supreme
bench of the state, and on this
account has fought him from the

ON BENCH
Colfax Jurist Accepts the
Appointment of
Gov. Mead.

Judge Stephen J. Chadwick of
Colfax has accepted the appoint
ment of Governor Mead to fill out
the unexpired term of Milo A..
Root, who resigned from the state
supreme bench. Over the long dis
lance telephone this morning Judge
Chadwick said he would leave for
Olympia Sunday to assume his
duties on the state bench.
Judge Chadwick was elected to
the supreme court in the last cleo
ton, but ordinarily would not take
office until the first of the year.
Another appointment will be neces-
sary when Judge Chadwick's regu-
lar term begins. This appointment
will depend upon Governor Co.'S
grove or whoever may occupy the
governors chair in case Mr.. Cos
grove is unable to take the Office to
which he was elected.
Judge Chadwick's acceptance OF
the supreme court appointment
was opposed by the bar of Whit
man county, as it was desired to
retain Judge Chadwick on the su-
perior court bench long enough to
close up cases now pending there.
Governor Mead will now appoint a
superior judge for Whitman county.
Judge Chadwick was born in
Oregon and has lived in Colfax
since 1885. He is As years Of age
and is recognized as one Of the
ablest and most popular members
of the legal profession in the state.
