lIUAL OF ALCOHOL. WITNESSES FOR CROWN. 4. STATESMEN. W. E. GLADSTONE: "It was stated just now that greater is the calamity and curso inflicted upon mankind by iutempeianco than by war, pestilence, and famine. Ilut it is trite for us, and tho fact that is true for us is the measure of our discredit and disgrace.” LORD ROSEBERY: "No ono can deny that almost all the degradation in this country is attributable to the curso of drin'k.” JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN: "If the desire for strong drink were removed wo should seo our taxes removed by millions —wo should see our gaols and workhouses empty.” LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL: "Tho liquor trado is devilish and destructive.” JOHN MOBLEY: "I say I don’t care what kind of unpopularity it may attract, but tho first stago in social reform is Temperance.” 5. PHILANTHROPISTS. GENERAL BOOTH: "Nine-tenths of the misery, squalor, and wretchedness of the peoplo of this country is caused by drink. THE INTOXICATING CUP IS OF THE DEVIL, AND LEADS TO HELL, and wo will neither touch, nor tasfo, nor handle the poisonous liquid, nor have any fellowship with those who fatten on the woes and miseries of mankind by its sale or manufacture.” Dr. BARNADO: "No less than 85 per cent, of all the children who wero admitted to the Homes under my caro owed their social ruin, and tho long train of their distresses, to the drinking habits of their parents, and othor relatives.” F. N. CHARRINCTON : Referring , to certain portions of London, Mr. Charrington was asked by a "Daily Nows” interviewer: "Is tho destitu- 1 tion great just now?” He replied: "Very great. It is always very great. If tho drink wero stopped there would be so much money to spend that trade would go up by leaps and bounds, and there would not bo enough workers to do the work. DRINK IS THE CAUSE, DRINK IS THE CURSE.” C.P.
