It s also of the | highest importance. The of intem | perance is even more formidable in mili tary than civil life. Nothing could be more desirable than the discovery | tion of the most efficient me ing it 0 a minimum Such a means, it is now made clear, has on discovered and applied in the institu canteen. There is no gainsay- of the Gene curse 4 applica ns for redu L tion of th ing the force published by al Corbin, They exactly in line with all that we know other sources. Nothing can b clearer than that the opinion of th officers of the army should, upon such a question, be of the highest authority, and there bas long been no question whatever what that opin- lon is. The overwhelming testimony of the officers in favor of the canteen can be over set only by pretending that the officers of the army prefer to command and to be commanded by driinkards, or else that they declare what they do not believe and are influenced by fear or favor in their official reports upon the subject. Mr. Dam, who is | the most consplcuous advocate of drunken- |ness in the army under the pretense of | prohibition, is not afraid or ashamed to | make this false and slanderous against a class of men whose sense of per sonal honor is at least as high as that of any other class of American citizens. His venturing to make it is another instance of the extent to which sense and modesty and truth may be overwhelmed by nati cism. For he and those who are co-operating | with him pride themselves in g made insensible to the teachings of reason and | expertence by what they call a “princip The principle is that it is a in, albe |a sin of thelr own invention, for the gov- | ernment to “legalize,” by recognizing, the sale of intoxicating liquors. Their remedy is absolute prohibition, regardless of the conclusive evidence that prohibition in th army does not prohibit. Nevertheless, they say, let us proclaim prohibition, and if we cannot enforce it, let us pretend that can. This policy of hypocrisy and false pretenses they maintain to be an illustra- tion of the righteousness which exalteth a | nation, and they are fanatically prepared to stand by it though the effect of it would surely be to promote in the army the drunkenness to which they the only Americans who are sincerely posed. They are even now organizing “an endless chain of prayer” t prevent the re-election of the president be causge he has the to desire to deal with the Hguor question in the army in | the manner ified to him to be the mo eficient and the courage to act upon the | evidence. 1 this behavior are from we op- sense of the prohibitionists be not and besotted fanaticism, it would be to say what it is.

Quite recently he has been restorted to favor. He has been put in the way of acquiring a share of the anticipated profits. Searles has bought in Tennessee a large farm, and has given the {nventor the use of it for a home.
