NOW JUMPING ON
THE PRESIDENT
Because He Drank a Glass
of Champagne
Anti-Saloon League About to Dead
List Terfdy.
WASHINGTON, October 9.—(Spec
ial.) —The leaders of the Anti-Saloon
League throughout the country are in
dulging in severe criticism of Presi
dent Roosevelt because while at St.
Louis, at the reception tendered him
he drank a glass of champagne in
response to a toast. Newspaper clip
ping bureaus report a flood of ad
verse comments from temperance
leaders all over the country, some
mild, but many almost bitter in in
dignant remonstrances to the presi
dent's action.
A fair sample of the more moderate
criticisms is that of Wm. H. Ander
son, superintendent of file Maryland
Anti-Saloon League. Said he:
A Beautiful Exhibition.
“Such public exhibitions no doubt
will have a baneful moral influence
on the youth of our land, and must
be regretted. It is distressing to
me to see a strong man, who has com
plete control of himself, indulge in
intemperance which might be imi
tated by others in emulation of his
example. It would be far more cred
itable, in my judgment, for a man in
Mr. Roosevelt's position to have fore
gone the pleasure of the cup that
cheers on that occasion.
“The fact that an occasional drink
is condemned in Mr. Fairbanks and
condoned in Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. J.
Pierpont Morgan is due no doubt to
the different creeds of their churches.
The discipline of the Methodist
Church is strict in regard to total
abstinence, while doubtless some of
the Reformed Church and Episcopal
clergy indulge in moderation. 3ut
these are personal matters to a large
extent.
Wave of Total Abstinenc.
“Undoubtedly a great wave in favor
of total abstinence is sweeping over
the land. The railroads and other
large industrial enterprises are de
manding men who are not only tem
perate, but total obstainers. There
is a clamor in army circles for the
restoration of the canteen. In my
opinion, it not only will not be res
tored, but restrictions will be placed
on the officers in the army as to the
quantity of liquor used.
“Politics is the only field of human
activity where the fact that a man
drinks toexcess is not a detriment.
Because of this it is difficult to get
any legislation in favor of temperance
much less prohibition.
After Speaker Joe Cannon.
“For instance, the Littlefield Car
mack bill has been before Congress
for the last five yead;, but has been
kept in the committee room largely
through the efforts of Speaker Can
non. Judging from his actions, no
doubt, he has no scruples in serving
wines at diner nor partaking when a
guest. We are building a good-sized
fire under Mr. Cannon and if we are
not badly mistaken there will be quite
an explosion in his camp when Con
gress next convenes. A number of
his lieutenants will not be returned
because of the fight we are waging
against them.
To Enforce State Dryness
“The bill provides that all packages
become subject to the State law as
soon as the border line is passed.
Whenever a State votes for prohibi
tion it is an outrage for its object to
be defeated by license granted by the
Federal Government. It is a matter
of giving to each State its right to
govern itself and the police power to
enforce the State law.
“Democrats throughout the South
are in favor of the Littlefield-Carmack
bill, and if the Republicans are not
careful they will be found outside the
breatswork on this question, which is
one of vital importance.”
Read the Sheffleld-Huntington Co’s
advertisement in this paper and you
will not wonder why they have such
crowds every day.
