"said in part: `The question Oyf in-1 toxicating liquors ' is` a matter of grave importance, and it" has much to do with our economic, social,` civic and religious welfare. ' First of all, the cause of temperance can the, and has been, very_'m_uch; in-` jurezl by an incorrect statement of" principles and by an intern-perate advocacy" of temperance. If tem- perance `be a virtue, it should apply to the treatment of the temperance q uestion,__` as well . as -all others. I11 0 `I One error has been the illogical 4 moral Basis on which it -is put- that the. making`, {the selling, the ; taking -or the drinking of intox'i- j eating liquors his in itself criminal.` There _is no theology for such a statement. They -are not. Neither the n 1aking,' nor the selling, nor the . drinking -in themselves are criminal habits. They may become criminal by association, by A. abu=se,c .by the various conditions suuhsequent to {the taking. The promotion of ten); perance, and " the inculcation of total, abstinence, encounter a most serious.` drawback when the` state- ments of the promoters are based- `upon untrue principles and made in a manner extravagant. But by this I do not mean that entlmsiasm, energ'y,and life-consecration in the cause of." temperance "is not worthy in itself, and a. vocation altogether Christian and ennobling. - ` `"11 36000916ou$boo3: ,.;;:- MIDHURST_.
