U Is a curious fact that two great forcon should bo fighting for tho con trol of tho United States, and each contending (hat its defeat will bo co incident with tho destruction of tho moral fabric of tho country. Jt Is n general proposition thnt opposing forces hold diverging vlows. Great political pnrtlou ant careful never to contend for tho satno principle, for should this bo dona tho motlvo would. going homo to work for a third term nnd a prohibition plank in tho platform of tho Republican party at Its next national convention. Thb and other straws Indicate that thoro may bo an nttompt to socure a pro hibition cluu-o In tho platform j of tho groat political parties next year. Tho anti-prohlbltlon olemuut is keen ly nwaka to Mils movement nnd pro pogou to prevent tho huccow of th plan. A etrang nrgHMtnt ngalnst prohl bo romovod from tho struggle. This bltlon theories U that If a man can Iff, how nor, tho on no with thou who not purchase Intoxicants ho will, nft- nro lighting for prohibition and those who nro opposing it, for It Is held by those high In tho councils of each force that tho United fttntos Is rrmw Ing tho threshold which leads to tho inor.' depravity of the nation. Thohft who oppose prohibition ma bo termed. In opposition to tho Antl Saloon lohgu, which is fighting for It, tho "Antl-lntolornnoe Iftnguo." Tho "AntMntolornnoo Unguo" Is op posed to the rentrletlon of personal liberty by forbidding tho salo of liquor to all beonuio tho fow make careless mo of It. They hold that tho nttompt to prohibit thu snlo of liquor does not do uwny with Its consumption and hover will. This contention Is supported by llguroH based upon observations nnd records in cities and Mates whoro prohibi tion has boon tested. Thoy say thnt just, nti truo as man Is born into tho world ho comes with n Inst for In toxicants, nnd thin tblmt ho or oxhnustlug every othor rosourcr mako thorn hluiMlf. As proof of this ono hns but to dlscusM the auostlon with tho officers charged with tho enforcement of tho intornnl revenue laws. Those omclnla aro fauilllnr with hundreds of methods by which tho smalt land holder In tho pro hibition states of tho south may brew or distil a liquid which will nppoase his thrlst for liquor, although In so doing It may vory llkoly tnko hi roaion. And Just hero is one of tho strongest arguments of thoio who opposo prohibition, It Is bniod on tho theory that tq prevent the use of liquor absolutely In an Impossibility. It Is then hold thnt since It h Imposilblu to prevent tho um of Intoxicant It Is far bettor to permit Its lognllxod uio under rate nnd elty restrictions than to attempt 'o pi event It. nnd as a re sult Hi ud tho man who will hnvu It will anyway Into tho dlvo to ret It. Thoro quench In soma way and form. If ho will drink anything from wood I loo or aro not eold legally thti aloohol to hard older In his efforts aesiro prompts lilm to lowing It came that which is known as tho "era of free rum," resulting in tho second popular temperance movement of 1820. This mnikcd the origin of tho "pledge." This cru sado was largely directed against tho Mfeo of spirits. Money in tiki Iliislncs. Tho total nmount of money invest ed in the browing and distilling busi ness In tho United Stales, according to tho latest avallablo figures, .s $612,571,558. This Is distributed In 44. states nnd territories. The ten states most 'heavily Interested are. Now York, $122,009,441; Pennsyl vania, $79,953,276; Wisconsin, $00,- 207,276; Illinois, $57,984,469; Mis souri, $44,269,886; Ohio, $41,180, 527; Kentucky, $24,674,007; Now Jersey, $30,525,727; MnssacndBettb, $23, 894,040, and Minnesota, $14, 802,300. Surpriso will bo expressed by those who do not follow closely tho work of tho intornnl revonuo division of tho treasury at tho increnso In In ternal rovonuo taxes on spirits dis tilled from grain In thu face of tho success of tho prohibition movement. Tho taxes collected on this form of liquor during tho last fiscal yoar amounted to tho enormous sum of $147,656,281.50, which was an In creaso over tho provlous yoar of $12, 550,177.35.
