TO TIE PUBLIC.
To the Editor OF the Daily ARGUS.


Dear Sir: In reply to an article in
the columns of the ARGUS of the 9th
inst, under the headlines ministers
Heard From" followed up by a list OF
names of parties having in their pos
session q license from the Government,
we desire to say to the public in be-
half of customers. as we'll AS ourselves,
| that the purpose for which these licenses
were procured was far from any in
tent whatever to violate any of our
Internal Revenue Commissioner bev-
erage containing over 1-2 of l per cent
alcohol the sale requires q special Ia < ,
not for the purpose of denoting an in
toxicant, but for the express purpose
OF deriving revenue.
AS we understand 1t the meaning OF
prohibition is for the purpose Of pre-
venting intoxicating liquors from be-
ing sold. and not for the purpose of de-
barring the sale of such beverages that
are soft drinks within its true meaning.
Believing. Mr.. Editor, that it is not
the purpose OF your paper to convey to
the minds OF its readers q false i'm.
preston. we would like to add that a
person handling Cuban AIDE as sold by
us for which we procured license. is
anything of q greater strength than
Cuban AIDE; with few exceptions this
contract with our various customers
has been ived up to with few excep-
tions. In the latter instances when it
became known that a person handling
our goods was selling anything intoxi-
eating we Immediately withdrew the
sale of our goods, and SO notified the
authorities. 1t is to our interest, COM
nercially as we'll as morally, TO dis
courage the use aud sale of strong
drink. We also like to have it under
stood for the benefit of our friends tina
nothing would induce us to engage in
Il business that would be construed
and held to be a violation Of the law OF
our land; on the other hand we are
perfectly willing and have always
strived to take steps towards promot-
ing temperance, believing this to be the
fundamental principle of better gov
ernment.
For the of ascertaining the
per cent OF alcohol N our goods there
has been a number of samples submit
ted to our State chemist for analysis.
The results showing a per cent OF alco-
hol that could not be classed as an in
toxicant.
