# FALLACIES OF PROTIBITION. The Rev. Cyrus T. Brady on the Question Now Boforo the People. \WHEREIN HE TAKES HIGH GROUNDS. The Theories of the boctrinaires Exploded — Scriptural ations o Prove the Absurdity of the Legal Enactment, In the September issue of The Reaper, a sprightly little monthly published at Crete, appears an editorial discussion of prohlbition. The Reaper is ably edited by Rev, T.C Brady, who is also pastor in charge of the Crete episcopalinn pa- jh. He wis for a and a half the assistnnt to Dean ardner at the Trinity and severed his relations with the cathedral to accept his present. position. In his early years a naval cadet in the United His father was an army in and for many yoars has resided at avenworth, Kanss, where he has had amplo opportunity to observe the workings of prohibitio that state. Tue Bre produces the striking uts of Brady as follows : Habitual moderation uce of the natural ;i 110 mod 1 temperance in eat ; temperancein the indul gence of joy or mirth—Noah Webstor. Prohibition.

Again, lattorly in Towa, ion, I would hesitato to say how many times {T noticed the patrol wagon pass by with o {drunken man or two init. “Theonly differenco have been able to find between probibition and non-prohibition states is that prohibition jmakes people break the law and got a worse tgrado of liquor besides. ‘Therefore, on tho Isimple ground of expediency, I am not and |eannot be a prohibitionist. [ TBECOND GROUND—IS PROHIBITION RIGnT? 1. Right in this argument may be stated to be that which accords with the Divine will and utpose, which is conformable to the Supreme ule of the Supreme Go Is prohibition in such accord! Does it so conform! I do not think Nevertheless hold the thematize you as an - consequence, I cannot find a place whero therightuse of anything onearthis prohilited toa Christian man or woman, nor can I find a placo > pr s hibitory principle, ¢ to liguor, is definitely laid dow le. Nowhere is it said, Thou shalt not drink wine us it is (f5aid, “Thoy shaltdo no murder,” or “thou L liult not steal,” ete. Such being the case, in the absence ' of positive command, we must scarch the scriptures and en deavor to discern from them il Lord’s purpose. Now I beheve, that in every essential to salvation, the purpose of God ' 13 cleunly exprossed, 8o that His wil camnot fail “to be apprehended by Flis creatur refore, since prehibition is not B0 exprossoed, it 1 essentinl to salva. tion and thorefore ¢ terof opiuion to be based upon the Also, winenor spirits, of itself, is not in- herently an evil thing; th 1o mherent evil or Wickeduess in 3 unless you avguo upon the old und heretical'idea of agnosticism, tb all matter is oy you w m proposition.

Norcan I think Ve right useof wine is wrong., Whel Be- cause Christ, who was not_ouly witho but absolutely incapablo of sin, ot only uss it Himself, but Hoactually aterpose miraculously produc Iy of it o ocension of “innocent festivity XI: 19, aud Johu I1: 9). He i our pattern or exemplar,” would He have done that whioh we should be prolibited from doing? In con clusion, I find that the use of spirituous Yiquors was sanctioned by the highest possi blo authority in both the old and new testa ments, and that it is nowhere prohibited. Therctore Ldonot think it right to prohibit it. T pass over the objection that the wines ferrod to were unfermented, I am con- vinced thatthe best sholarship of the wor proves the contrary; such an assertion is of o more valio than” that made by a negro or at the last assembly to the effect that the wine made at Cama could uot have been intoxicating because it was used immediately and” had therefore no time to ferment! Also, sin does not consist in the commission of somo over it only ad Matt. have heand that it was said m thom of old time, thou shult not commit you that whosoover look n to lust Yer, hath con i ready in his heart,! words, terrible! s a man with the lust of liquor in his heart any less o drunkard, is his soul safer bocause he cannot get his drink on account of prohi- bition! You cannot prohibit by human regu- . Jation men into rightousness and life etornal. Such things come from above. Furthermore, 1 think prohibition equivalent to the denial of the efficacy of the Christian religion. God kuows wo fail in that as in everythin Lat He know that thorvin lies the ouo remedy for intemperunce in the use of spirituous liquors or auything els It takes ages to effect a reform in this world, and untold suflering and sorrow must pre- cede evi Xy sthpwe take.
