WINE A TEMPERANCE DRINK

The movement by the wine men to
promote temperance by encouraging
the drinking of California wine is one
that every true friend of temperance
should aid Really the solution of the
temperance question is learning how
to drink, This does not mean that
those who do not drink should be en-
couraged to drink, but those who do
drink should be educated how to drink
In countries where wine is drunk uni
versally there is no drunkenness. For
a practical object lesson it is not nee
cessary to cross the Atlantic ocean
just cross the track. Go to any of the
French or Italian hotels and you will
see wine drunk at table during meals
Most Americans whose only idea of
drinking is to get drunk, could not
drink wine even at meals, sOberly I'M
til they learn how, but a moderate use
Of wine at meals as stimulating bev-
erage is absolutely unObjectiOnable
dhu AO SuhlpIudiJ law Iudt HOulu oCCh
to prohibit it is likely to be tolerated
For that matter beer drinking in the
same way is unobjectionable. The
only difficulty in putting beer on a
parity with wine is that beer has be-
come in California so intimately as
ISOLATED as a saloon drink, and the
people have been badly educated in
beer drinking.
Those behind the promotion of wine
as a temperance beverage disclaim
any saloon sympathy or support. And
that is essential to any degree of sue
cess. The argument that saloons,
which don't sell wine, are essential to
the perpetuity of the wine INDUSTRY is
too ridiculous to need even an effort
at refutatiOn. The principle that the
people of any community have a right
to abolish public drinking places is
not TO be denied. Let the wine men
encourage the use of wine as wine
ought TO be drunk, in the home. Since
saloon men have never dealt in wine
it is not hOodooed by the saloon. Let
the anti-saloon crusade go on, too.
There is absolutely no conflict be-
tween a movement TO encourage the
drinking of wine and to discourage the
saloon.-FresnO (Cal) Republican.

A decision was received from
District Judge Steele by Attorney G..
l., Mcdonald in which the case en-.
titled Ralph T. Pittock VS.. Stella
Pittock has been decided in favor of
the plaintiff.
This is the action in which the
ejectment proceedings We're institu-
ted by the plaintiff to recover pos
session Of a residence property on
the corner of Sixth street and
Fourth avenue and known as the
Tios property
The defendant alleged that the
property r.ghtfully belonged to the
estate OF the late John Pittock.
That The deceased had held an OPP
ton ON the property and had REIN
hursad the plaintiff for the money
advanced at the time the purchase
was made.
The contention of the plaintiff
was that his brother had procured
the option on the property but had
been unable to meet the terms of
said document and that he, the
plaintiff, had furnished the money
necessary to make the purchase and
he had not in any manner been re-
imbursed. The deal involved $4,000
and the decision shows the conten
ton of the plaintiff to have been
sustained by the court.
