ing the duties of his office, with re-
fusa1 to prosecute certain important

HISTORY Of
DRINK IN ENGLAND
Country Has Been Webbing for Ages
On Greatest Question Before.

King George, who has announced
that he Is will forego liquors during
the war, Lord Kitchener, Chancellor
Lloyd George and Field Marshal Sir
John French, are not only ones VINO
are convinced that prohibition is es-
sential to complete success In the pre-
sent war. The demand for the aboli-
tion to efficiency has been expressed by

ployers' Federation by the Chamber of
Commerce OF Bradford. England, by

DOYLE. Rear Admiral G.. King Hall.
Lord kinnaird. the Bishop Of London.
Sir Walter Runciman. DR. Mary Schar-
heb. DIR. Mary Surge, and by many
prominent physicians
1t is considered that Government al
ready possessed fun power to proclaim
prohibition in force as measure Of
public safety. The cabinet. which has
fully discussed the problem, is believed
to favor such action. but is anxious not
to take any steps which public senti-
ment will not endorse. The action of
King George in announcing that he is
ready to forego the use of liquor in his
household as an act Of patriotism has
had all the more effect because the
King is known to fond of his wines.
Queer History of Drink in England.
The first decided governmental dis
trus, OF the liquor traffic in Great
Britain was evidenced in the licensing
law OF 1852 in the reign of Edward VI.
in which the position was taken that
LIQUOR selling was an evil demanded by
the public. Since the beginning of the
seventeenth century the British Gov
eminent has passed flfty-nine measures
designed to curb or partially prohibit
the liqpor traffic, bUt the contrary i'm
pulse struggling within the Govern
ment has expressed itself in ten distinct
laws designed to encourage the liquor
traffic, either because of the assump
ton that beer is temperance agent,
or because OF the need OF the revenue,
Before the reign of Henry VII the
apothecary was the only dispenser OF
ardent spirits In Great Britain. The
titles OF some of the bills proposed in
that early period illustrate the attitude
of the hostile element in the Govern

ment toward the traffic. In the
eleventh year Of the reign of Henry
VII law was passed under the sig
nificant title. AN Acte against Naca-
bounds and Beggars." This act con-
tains the germ of the licensing system.
II says in part:
And 1t be lawful to u ttwo) Of the
Justices OF the Peas (Peace), whereof
one shall be of the quorum within their
auctorite to rejects and put awey
comen ale selling in townes and places
where they shall thnke convenient,
and to take suretie of the keepers OF
ale-houses of their code behaving by
the discretion of the seid Justices. and
in the same to be avysed and agreed
at the time OF their sessions"
Fifty-seven years later this law was
extended into a full-fiedged licensing
measure, the preamble reading For
asmuchce as intollerable hurtes and
trobles to the Comon Wealthe of this
Realme, doth daylie grove and en-
crease drought such abuses and dis
orders as are had and used in comon
alehouse and other houses called tip
hinge houses"
The Wheel Turns.
Since that time British enactments
designed to restrict the trade have
gradually embraced such modern fea-
lures as partial Sunday closing. the
prohibition of the sale of liquor TO
minors under certain circumstances.
the forbidding of the payment OF
wages of miners near licensed drink
shops, and the limiting OF hours In
which liquors can he sold. The various
acts since that time also embrace
number OF prohibition features, and
express their hostility TO the drink
trade in terms like these: For re-
~ Lac OF Tvyo
bright spots in the record are the years
1889 and 1861 when distillation
was prohibition. causing much
diminished consumption of spirits and
a marked Improvement In the condi-
ton OF the people
The ten measures passed for the en-
couragement of the traffic In liquors
either for the production of more reve-
nue.. or because ii has been deemed
that light liquors are the foes OF
stronger drink, have without excep-
ton, proven unfortunate in their
operation. The most unfortunate act
passed by the British Parliament was
put through by the Govern of
the Duke Of Wellington III 1880. This
law repealed the duty of beer and
otherwise encouraged The consumption
of malt liquors, No measure ever
passed by a British Parliament was so
prolific OF disaster and If the policy
then inaugurated had been followed
out to the present day there is no rea-
son whatever to doubt that England
would be a second-class power.
1t now seems probable tina. England
will put the cap-sheaf upon her long
history of webbing by enacting abso-
lutte prohibition during the war which
will mean eventually bsoIute prohibit
tion for all time.
