THE PROPOSED TREATY

The influence Of the "wets" may
be expected to antagonize In the
Senate the proposed liquor treaty
with England which would enable
British ships to put their liquor un-
der seal while in our ports and we
would be permitted to overhaul any
suspected British rum smuggler
within an hours distance from our
shores. 1t was through the influence
of the "wets' that the question OF
liquor en- board American vessels
was raised and II need not be in

the legal aspect OF liquor under seal
on foreign ships in our ports was

position on the part Of the "wets"

may the Senate agree to a treaty I'M
