SO that, in point of fact, we have the brewer
paying the farmer $23,912,175 for his barley, of
which, as it now appears, he trihe over
one-third of the crop; $5,S69774 for the pocket

production and, let us say some six million
dollars for his hops, total of about $35,-

of the farms.
Even were the statement true, it would not be-
when proper comparisons are made, strikingly
important. In the Census year the total value
of the farm crops of the United States reached
almost three billion dollars, or, to be exact
$299S, 704,412. The total is now vastly larger
For the farmer to keep the brewery door open
to furnish him a market for even too hundred
million dollars worth of his crops, at the ex-
pense of keeping the saloon door open to take
from the people to whom he must sell the greater
part of his crops too thousand million dollars
in a transaction that has all the economic char
acteristics of robbery would be an unspeakable
folly.
But the statement is not true, and any student
of statistics can demonstrate its falsity.
Readers of this paper, who were readers of
The Defender, by turning to their files may find,
in the number of October 3, 1907, an elaborate
study of the use of grain in the production of
liquors, from which it will be seen that to pro-
duce the liquor manufactured in the fiscal year,
1906 both the brewers and the dstillers output
little more than forty million dollars aOorth of
grain employed, or to be exact, $42, 464, 133
There needs to be added to that in this case the
crop of the Census year sold for $4,os1 1929, it
may be safely assumed that in the fiscal year 1906
the dstiller and the brewer together purchased
not more than fifty million dollars worth of the
farmers crops all told-or quarter of the pur-
chase to which the brewer pretends in this adver-
tisement.
Seeking the exact portion of this, which is to-
be placed to the credit of the brewer, we are
obliged to take the fiscal year 1906, since that
is the latest for which full data are obtanable
In that year the brewer manufactured 54,651 637
barrels of beer. Taking this number of barrels
at the average of "13 percent Baling," technical
brewers term, which indicates about an average
beer, there would have been needed for each
barrel 1.65 bushels of barley malt, had the beer
been made wholly of barley, about the virtues
of which the brewer tells us so much. Since
one hundred bushels of barley according to the
computation of the National Brewers Academy,
will make liz bushels of malt, the manufacture
of the years output of beer would have needed
SO,337 9O6 bushels of barley little more than
half the barley crop which the brewers adver-
tisement displays SO prominently. And this bar
ley, paid for at the average farm price of that
year, AIS cents, would have brought the farmer
about $33 ,34O,2 3O99.
The farmer can, perhaps, keep the extra cent
of change and call it another dollar, to COM
pensate him for the difference between this sum
and the handsome two hundred Million" about
which the brewers talk to him.
But even this is not actual market. Our brewer
is thrifty and frugal, and to obtain the starch
for his beer entirely from the malt costs too

employee is a creature of poor health One needs
but to glance at the bloated carcasses of the poor
wretches who drive the beer wagons through
the streets of our cities or to watch the gate
of any brewery as its employees pour out at
night, to form fairly reasonable conclusion
concerning the relation existing between health
and close association with beer.
But not dependent upon observation;
the question has been carefully studied There
are few hazardous businesses the followers of
which show heavier death-roll than the brew
ers One of these is the saloonkeeper's. Ameri-
can life insurance companies for years have dis
eliminated against all connected with the brew
ing business. The carefully kept statistics of the
Registrar General of the United Kingdom show
the brewers far down the line in heavy NOR
tally. To quote from the able work of Sir
Victor Horsley, in his study of the statistics of
the Registrar General, IF the comparative NOR
tally figure for all men equals one thousand, an
equal number of gardeners would only have 56s
deaths; teachers sri, grocers 664, doctors 9S7;
while at the other end of the scale are brewers
l,4O7, inn-keepers and inn-servants 1865, and
hle-makers 1,791."
The second falsehood is found in the words,
zens temperate, patriotic, and true" Common
experience testihes to the contrary and pro-
nounces the brewery element everywhere in the
United States an element which has made for
lawlessness, anarchy and crimnality. The voice
of brewery unions, heard again and again during
the past months in opposition to law enforce
ment testifes to the contrary
But these misrepresentation are slight in COM
parison with the deliberate mendacty of the pre-
tended statistical statements which follow:
The third falsehood is found in the words,
Seven hundred and fifty thousand such men are
on the pay rolls of Americas breweres and their
allied industries receiving good, living wages"
By no possible showing of facts can seven
hundred and fifty thousand men be reported
employed in the brewing industries. The latest
authentic figures upon the subject those given
by the United States Census of 1900.
according to that Census total of only 62,So7
people 7cere employed in the united businesses
of bre7ving, dstiling, mailing, 7vine- making and
half of the botlng business
If all the liquor sellers, wholesale and retail,
are added to the list, the number will reach
but little more than five hundred thousand,
while the widest possible inclusion of the people
who produce the materials, grains, etc, used by
the whole liquor business, including distilling
as we'll as brewing, will make the list reach only
about eight hundred thousand people, some fifty
thousand more than this mendacious advertise
ment claims for the pay rolls of the brewing line
of poson-making.

ANOTHER ROCHESTER DAY
Towards Speech Produces Results in Closed
Up Sunday-Three More Great
Meetings

ROCHESTER, New York, January 6-(Special
correspondence )-Yesterday was another great
day in the Prohibition movement in Rochester
a day of building up the tremendous sentiment
that will help to overwhelm the liquor business
in the state of New York and in the nation In
c1dentally, the day triumph for Clinton N
Howard, the man who has been most CLOSELY
identified with the Prohibition movement in this
city for ten years past
Mr. Towards address to the preachers week
ago bore fruit in the closing up of the theaters
and catchpennies of the city and the complete
and ostentatious closing of every one of Roch-
esters six hundred Saloons with the announce
ment by the city administration that the
policy will be followed throughout the year The
closing policy announced after conference
between Mr. Howard and the new officials
Three great meetings held; a meeting for
women in the opera house; for men in the Lv-
ceum Iheater, where DR.. Chas Henry Mead OF
New York delivered his address, "Wanted-a
Man." and pledged at least thousand men to
nobler lives, and at night in the Westminster
Presbyterian church, where Mr.. Howard deliv-
cred new lecture entitled "The Failure and Sue
cess of Prohibition, to an audience that filled
the church to the doors.
During the day Brewer John Bradley the pious
churchman who was mentioned so prominently
in connection with the plot to ruin Mr.. How
ards reputation and to drive him from the city,
asked for an interview by one of the papers,
and his sole reply 81 have absolutely moth
ing to say"
The gang of liquor criminals who, year ago,
were bounding Mr.. Towards steps in an at
tempt to ruin him because of his activity against
the saloon, dined yesterday on the bones of the
saloon vulture.

To that extent. We need no further
proof that Democracy has done it's
duty as 70 the enforcement Of this
law, but the very fact that the brewers
and distillers. who supplied trade Of
these two territories. complain that
their trade has fallen off IS per cent
is best proof Of the limited violation
OF this law And It does not rest in
the mouth Of the Republican politician
to criticize Democracy for anything
short Of complete prohibition. as long
as a Republican congress negIects to
authorize and federal courts refuse to
permit the state to interrupt and pro
hibit interstate commerce in whisky.
and yet while there are violations Of
the prohibition law. we feel that we
have had marked success. and with
the support OF the people to the de-
gree that we are entitled to their
support even better results will be ac-
complished In the future. It takes
time TO wipe out any line OF com
merce, custom, or practice, and we
deny that there IS any ground for
criticism Of the state officials in any
department Of this question
In conclusion he said: Democracy
can please every honest Republican
who wants good government, and who
is willing TO search the records and
remember the facts rather than listen
