MEAD,h Well, .you have your“ good, discreet, liberal-minded man, haven’t you, favoring all the license any liberal-minded man could ask for ? But consider a moment, E d ito r J o u rn a l—In reading“ Pedro’s” article In the J o u rn a l of February 9th, I am reminded of the man who“ built his house upon the sand.” Although he says it is his purpose td prove the“ contempts- ble falsity maliciously set forth -by Mon- to u r,” in no way does he give satisfactory evidence that Montour is deludedur asserts more than can be proyen. His opinion is all very good, but does not alter facts and w ill not stand before them. We read that Satan sometimes“ transforms himself into an angel of light to deceive, i f possible, the very elect,” and so covers sin w ith plausi- ble theories. We often think we are doing God’s service by advocating that which U ' in direct opposition to God’s commands. Pedro styles himself a“ temperance man, votes for license, believes In respectable hotels, thinks them not only absolutely necessary fo r the public, but st substantial ' benefit to the business interests pj) onr town, drinkB liquor when he feels the need o f it ,” all this and much more he asserts m self righteousness, A saloon keeper might claim as much. We read o f Ratoon men passing resolutions sanctioning.^ so called temperance measures. Temperance does mean“ moderation” and* it also mean* sobriety. I f a certain number o f glasses o f digger - Will make 8; ua*n drunlc, how fa r fro m sobriety w ill one glass take him? T h e man lowest d o w n in ' the’-d itctto n iy takes a glass when be feels the' need of it. T o be s tric tly temperance according to God’s defination is to“ touch not, taste not, handle not” anything that is sin, and to “shun the very appearance of evil.’’ We believe in“ respectable hotels” where the traveling public can be properly cared for ; but we believe the selling of liquor does not make them so. There is no respectability in the selling of that which makes a man and bis fam ily paupers, robs him of his manhood, makes him a wreck mentally, morally and physically, while all about, above and around him are the words:“ Mo drunkard shall inherit the kingdom of heaven.\ Can we truthfully say that ho- tels, with a license, are a“ substantial ben- e fit to the business interests” of any com- munity when they take money that should go to the grocer, butcher, clothier,, d ry- goods merchant and into other legitimate channels of trade. When I say legitimate, 1 do not mean the lawful selling of that which brings death inst as certain as it would be for one man to step up to an- other and put a bullet into his bram. I should prefer instant death to the slow: one o f liquor poison. Why not license a man to go about shooting his neighbors?, Bat I am digressing. What is it, if it is not the liquor traffic which fills our jails, alms- houses, orphan, and insane asylums with inmates? According to Statistics a very large per cent, of these inmates,are brought there directly or indirectly through the curse of rum. Who provides for these; is it the rumseller ? Taxpayers would do Well to investigate this ticehsl system and ascer- tain where the benefit comes in. I f it be, aasome claim i t is, a financial benefit, are we to do evil that, good may come ? Is a a human souito.be Weighed In the'balance with financial gain ? Would anyone be willing to sacrifice his boy or girl, for a feW paltry dollars? We have only to look at the towns, coantics, and States under Pro- hibition to be convinced of the better, con- dition of affairs. We read of a lessening of crime and pauperism and a consequent increase of the moral and religious state. If“ no excessive drinkers are saved” be- cause o f no license, our boys are not in the way of temptation and we are not partici- pants in the“ Woe to him, that putteth the bottle to his neighbor's lips and maketh him drunken.” Also, I do notjwonder that Pedro does not believe in the“nonsense of paying , bis money to foreign missions,” when be gives such substantial evidence of tbe need of-missionary work at home. I f it would not be too personal, we might-give Pedro instances o f - pien who were in the habit o f spending nearly every cent o f money they earned, together-WitU a pen*-. lioDj fo r liquor, Who, With no lloenie, are itoylng fo r a home, providing -proper food and clothing fo r their family, ahff inat$ad of a curse are to a certaia Extent a benefit to society.
