+
+<p>Thinking as I do, that in the Beer Brewers of the United

+promoters of the great and glorious cause of genuine temperance,
+and that greater practical results may be attained
+through their instrumentality than in any other way, it

+
+<p>Our object in presenting the following pages to
+the public, is to call attention to the value of pure
+beer as a preventive of intemperance. Few persons
+are aware of the amount of patient investigation this
+question has received at the hands of eminent social
+economists and men of science, or of the mass of facts
+and testimony that has been collected, and lies ready
+at the hand of any one who is able and willing to
+work it over into a compact consecutive form, in
+which it shall be easy of access, and available for use
+in the further discussion of the subject. This we
+have attempted to do thoroughly and fairly. Great
+caution has been used in making statements and no
+inference has been drawn that could be considered in
+any way forced or doubtful.</p>
+
+<p>There are doubtless many persons to whom some
+of the facts and conclusions here presented, may
+seem strange or even startling, and to such it must
+be said that the authorities quoted are generally men
+whose reputation for accuracy and sound judgment
+stands so high that they cannot afford to make a
+mistake or a loose assertion.</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_10">[10]</span></p>
+<p>The work has involved much labor and historical
+research, and the author believes that the information
+contained in the following pages cannot fail to
+be of value to those who are interested in any phase
+of the beer question, whether as brewers, legislators
+or students of sociology. The end proposed to be
+served is that of temperance, and the method suggested
+is one that has been successfully tried in other
+countries. From the total abstinence party we ask
+the candid examination of our facts and arguments
+that is due to a fair statement from all who claim respect
+for their own opinions, and are honest friends
+of real temperance.</p>

+
+
+<p>As extremes do and must perforce exist, the noblest
+philosophy of life is <em>compromise</em>.</p>
+
+<p>Temperance then is the truest medium between total
+abstinence and excess, and in the same manner, beer occupies
+the medium position between ardent spirits and water.
+This fact is of the greatest importance, and until the public
+thoroughly understands the differences, whether from a
+moral, social, economic, or sanitary point of view, between
+distilled and fermented liquors, or in other words, beer and
+whisky there can be no hope of proper legislation as to the
+traffic in these articles. This legislation is now greatly
+influenced by the public advocates of total abstinence,
+among whom, if their own repeated claims be taken into
+account we might expect to find only disinterested, high-minded
+philanthropists. But it is notorious that their ranks
+are largely swelled by ignorant, ambitious or foolish men,
+whose vanity or pecuniary interest determines their action,
+and whose persistence and numerical strength will constitute
+an effective power until legislative bodies and the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_12">[12]</span>people at large are more thoroughly informed as to the
+actual experience of countries in which the problem has
+been dispassionately studied and brought to a successful solution.
+In too many of our states the liquor laws represent
+the triumph of ignorance and prejudice over reason and the
+welfare of the community. We hold that the solution of
+the temperance question is to be found through fermented
+liquors, and “<span class="smcap">Beer Against Whisky</span>” is our motto.</p>
+
+<p>Before coming, as we shall do later in this book, to a detailed
+examination of the facts in regard to the use of beer,
+it may be well to declare briefly our position, and give some
+indication of the kind of testimony that will be more fully
+displayed under a separate heading.</p>
+
+<p>We hold that the production and sale of beer is so far
+from being subversive of public morals, that experience in
+all countries where beer is the national beverage, demonstrates
+precisely the opposite of this position. We hold
+too, that the use of beer is not merely indifferent, but,
+within the limits of temperance ( <i>i. e.</i> moderation), a good
+and rational means of developing the mental and bodily
+powers of man.</p>
+
+<p>We cannot join in the gratulations of those who now—as
+they say—so enthusiastically enjoy the blessings of total
+abstinence. During the last thirty years we have seen
+something of the operation of this enthusiasm, not only in
+Great Britain, but in the native state of the originator of
+the movement in this country, and we find it impossible to
+assent to the famous proposition that a pledged abstainer is
+a drunkard saved. We have been convinced that a pledged
+abstainer is too often a man who drinks in secret and thus
+adds hypocrisy to his other sins.</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_13">[13]</span></p>
+<p>Notice this passage from evidence given before a state
+committee appointed to inquire into the action of the restrictive
+laws. The Hon. James H. Duncan of Haverhill,
+says:</p>
+
+<p>“My observation and convictions are, that temperance
+has not been promoted by the prohibitory law; that the
+temperance of our people is not so good now as before the
+passage of the law; it has no efficacy in checking intemperance
+and the evils that result from it; it has been productive
+of more mischief than good, and I think it an unwise
+act. It is impossible to make that a crime which is not
+made a crime by the divine law, and the use of beer, wine
+and cider cannot by any effort be made a crime <i lang="la">per se</i>, yet
+the prohibitory statute makes it a crime to sell either, and
+worse, it is a crime for a carrier to carry them. No wonder
+that such a law demoralizes the community, for a vast
+amount of lying and fraud have been called into existence
+through its agency.”</p>
+
+<p>The Rev. George Putnam, D.D., said; “I believe and
+know that the prohibitory law produces demoralization, and
+disrespect for a law that cannot be enforced. It demoralizes
+jurors and witnesses. It demoralizes the buyers and
+sellers of liquors, inducing them to resort to all manner of
+frauds, tricks and evasions to do that unlawfully which they
+cannot do lawfully. It is injurious to the conscience of the
+people to be always violating this law; and so far as liquor
+selling is concerned the law has done no good.”</p>
+
+<p>These extracts and many others to be given later, go to
+prove that it is most unwise to interfere with the social
+habits of a people, that it is dangerous for a state to do so,
+and that, as a matter of fact, temperance is not promoted
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_14">[14]</span>by a prohibitory law. Public testimony that such laws are
+a blunder, or worse, has been given by such men as John
+Quincy Adams, Professor Agassiz of Cambridge, Rev.
+Leonard Bacon, D. D., of Connecticut, Professor Bigelow
+of Boston, Professor Edward Clark of Boston, ex-Governor
+Clifford, the late Right Rev. M. Eastburn, D. D., the late
+Governor Andrews, and Oliver Wendell Holmes, all of
+Boston, ex-Governor Washburn of Massachusetts, Professor
+Bowen of Cambridge, General Burrell of Roxbury,
+Hon. Joel Parker of Cambridge, Judge Patch of Lowell,
+Hon. James H. Duncan of Haverhill, Mass., Rev. George
+Putnam, D. D., of Mass., Dr. Garcelon, Governor of Maine,
+Dr. Willard Parker of the Inebriate Asylum at Binghamton,
+N. Y., A. Schwartz, Esq., the distinguished editor and
+publisher of the <i lang="de"> Americanischer Bierbrauer</i>, and many
+others, comprising eminent statesmen, judges, and divines
+of all the states of the Union.</p>
+
+<p>Our legislators should consider it their solemn duty to
+protect and foster the manufacture and sale of pure beer,
+and should frame such laws as will protect the people
+against imposition and secure the manufacture of an article
+that shall not only be made from good materials, but be
+thoroughly well brewed and wholesome, and sold at a moderate
+price.</p>
+
+<p>Such a course will prove a blessing to mankind, and we
+do not hesitate to say, that notwithstanding what fools or
+fanatics may say, preach or write, Americans, and particularly
+those of the Eastern States, who are probably the most
+practical people on the face of the globe, will before long
+adopt beer as their national beverage. In doing so they
+will but follow the example of the most civilized countries
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_15">[15]</span>of Europe; and it will soon be recognized that every brewery
+and every beer saloon helps to loosen the grasp which
+alcohol has on any country where distilled liquors are habitually
+used. Thomas Jefferson, writing Dec. 13, 1818, to
+M. de Neuville in reference to intemperance and the use of
+light wines as a substitute for spirits, says, “No nation is
+drunken where wine is cheap.” Beer is yet less alcoholic
+than wine of any sort and has advantages of its own which
+will be discussed in due place. Experience shows that
+sound, wholesome beer at a moderate cost is the best catholicon
+yet discovered for intemperance. It weans a people
+gradually but surely from strong drink and brings happiness,
+content and morality in the place of dissipation and suffering.
+But it must be good, cheap and accessible, and the
+responsibility of making it so rests with our lawgivers.
+The poorer classes are those who need it most and cause
+most injury and loss to the state when for lack of it they
+consume ardent spirits—and these cheap and adulterated.</p>
+
+<p>In spite of all difficulties considerable progress has been
+made, as is shown by a consumption last year of more than
+nine million (9,473,361) barrels of beer, which is the best
+evidence of a step in the right direction towards national
+temperance.</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">EARLY HISTORY OF BEER.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>It is impossible to say where and when the brewing of
+beer began, for the earliest historical records show its general
+use.</p>
+
+<p>It is mentioned by Manathos, High Priest of Heliopolis,
+an Egyptian of Greek education, who lived about 300 B. C.
+and by command of Ptolemaus Philadelphus translated the
+old Egyptian history into Greek. He says that the Egyptians,
+thousands of years before, had beer, and that its invention
+was attributed to Osiris, a divinity representing all the
+beneficent principles, also that celebrated breweries existed
+at that time at El Kahirch, the Cairo of Europeans, and at
+Pelusinum on the river Nile.</p>
+
+<p>The Greeks had their <i lang="grc"> zythos</i> (beer) as also their wine of
+barley, <i lang="grc"> ek krithon methu</i>, and the <i lang="grc"> oinos krithinos</i> as mentioned
+by Sophocles, Æschylus, 470 B. C., Diodorus of
+Sicily and Pliny. Xenephon in his account of the Retreat
+of the Ten Thousand, written 400 B. C., mentions that the
+inhabitants of Armenia used fermented drinks made from
+barley.</p>

+
+<p class="center"> <i>As described by Manathos (third century B. C.), High Priest in Heliopolis</i></p></figcaption>
+</figure>
+
+<p>The Romans had their <i lang="la"> cerevisia</i> (beer) but with them it
+was a special luxury. Julius Cæsar was a noted admirer
+of it, and Plutarch, 50 A. D., and Suetonius, each of whom
+wrote of Cæsar, tell us that after he had crossed the Rubicon,
+49 B. C., he gave a great feast to his leaders at which
+the principal beverage used was <i lang="la"> cerevisia</i>, and the biographers
+of Lucullus tell us that at his magnificent entertainments
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_17">[17]</span>beer was served to his guests in golden goblets of the most
+costly device. And at that time also the Romans were
+already accustomed to sing <i lang="la"> Cerevisiam bibunt homines, cœtera
+animalia fontes</i>.</p>
+
+<p>In Germany beer was known about the same time, and
+Tacitus (54 A. D.,) says, that the Roman general Varius,
+who was sent by Augustus to conquer the country and subdue
+the inhabitants, but was defeated by Arminius the leader
+of the Teutons, attributed the desperate valor of the enemy
+and their complete success, in great measure to their free
+use of <i>bior</i> (beer).</p>
+
+<p>The Allemanni, a large German tribe who were first
+mentioned by Dion Cassius, 213 A.D., and who occupied
+the country between the river Main and the Danube, were
+formidable enemies both to the Romans and the Gauls.
+They attached great importance to their beer which was
+brewed under the supervision of the priests, and before use
+was blessed with many solemn rites. In an old code of
+theirs we find that every member of a church ( <i lang="de">Gotteshaus</i>)
+had to contribute for its maintenance fifteen <i lang="de">seidel</i> of beer
+or some equivalent. The Emperor Julian who defeated
+them in the year 357 A. D., near Strasburg, where all their
+forces were assembled under seven chiefs, found on the field
+of battle numerous utensils designed to be employed in
+brewing.</p>
+
+<p>The old Saxons in the seventh and eighth centuries when
+sitting in council to consider questions of high importance
+would only deliberate after drinking beer, which they took
+in common out of large <i lang="de">Humpen</i> (stone mugs).</p>
+
+<p>Charlemagne (742-814 A. D.,) himself gave directions
+how to brew the beer for his court, and was as careful in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_18">[18]</span>selecting his brew-masters as in choosing his councilors and
+leaders. A single circumstance, attendant on his defeat of
+the Saxons at Paderborn, 777 A. D., illustrates the high respect
+in which brewing was then held, and in this particular,
+is suggestive of its semi-sacred character among the
+Allemanni as mentioned above. On that occasion it is
+related that the Emperor, surrounded by his chief leaders
+and councilors and by the ambassadors of distant nations,
+received the homage of the heathen Saxon warriors, caused
+many thousands of them to be baptized and then celebrated
+the double triumph of his arms and the Christian faith at a
+great feast, at which there were seated with him Eginhard,
+Paul Warnefried and Alcuin, the Emperor’s friends and
+advisers, and all drank of beer brewed by Charlemagne
+himself, while they discussed the great events that had
+just occurred. The drinking vessels were large mugs of a
+peculiar form which are still to be seen among a collection
+of relics presented to the Emperor by eastern potentates
+and now kept in a tower at the west end of the Cathedral
+of Aix-la-Chapelle, and exposed to public view once in
+every seven years. Within a few years numerous relics
+have been found in the vicinity of Paderborn which indicate
+that beer brewing must have been as common and
+necessary in both parties as the cooking of food.</p>
+
+<p>The old Danes as far back as 860 A. D. under Gorm the
+Old, 936 A. D. under Harold Bluetooth, and 985 A. D. under
+Swend Twybeard, were acquainted with the art of brewing,
+and their old codes mention it as a most honorable
+occupation.</p>
+
+<p>In Bohemia, breweries were built at Budweis in the year
+1256 A. D. by direction of Ottokar II., King of Bohemia,
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_19">[19]</span>and few cities in the world can point to an establishment of
+such antiquity. Budweis beer is now almost universally
+known and approved, though it is needless to say that it
+differs materially from that made six hundred years ago.</p>
+
+<p>In the thirteenth century we see by an old law of France,
+in the reign of Louis IX., of the year 1268, how highly beer
+was esteemed and that laws were already made to secure
+the purity of beer as well as to protect the brewers in their
+avocation, and for curiosity’s sake we give our readers an
+extract of those laws as mentioned above:</p>
+
+<p>1. No one shall brew beer or remove it in drays or
+otherwise, on Sundays or on the solemn feasts of the Holy
+Virgin.</p>
+
+<p>2. No one shall set up in the brewery who has not
+served a five years’ apprenticeship, and been three years a
+partner with a regular brewer.</p>
+
+<p>3. Nothing shall enter into the composition of beer, but
+good malt and hops, well gathered, picked, and cured,
+without any mixture of buckwheat, darnel, etc., and the
+hops shall be inspected by juries, to see that they are not
+used after being heated, moldy, damp, or otherwise damaged.</p>
+
+<p>4. No beer yeast shall be hawked about the streets, but
+shall be all sold in the brew-houses to bakers and pastrycooks,
+and to no others.</p>
+
+<p>5. Beer yeast brought by foreigners shall be inspected
+by a jury before it is exposed to sale.</p>
+
+<p>C. No brewer shall keep in, or about, his brew-house any
+cows, oxen, hogs, geese, ducks, or poultry, as being inconsistent
+with cleanliness.</p>
+
+<p>7. There shall not be made in any brew-house more than
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_20">[20]</span>one brewing of fifteen septiers at the most, of ground malt
+in a day.</p>
+
+<p>8. Casks, barrels, and other vessels made to hold beer,
+shall be marked with the brewer’s mark, in the presence of
+a jury.</p>
+
+<p>9. No brewer shall take away from a house he serves
+with beer any vessels which do not belong to him.</p>
+
+<p>10. Those who sell beer by retail shall be subject to the
+inspection of juries.</p>
+
+<p>11. No one shall be a partner but with a master brewer.</p>
+
+<p>12. No master brewer shall have more than one apprentice
+at a time, which apprentice shall not be turned over
+without the consent of a jury.</p>
+
+<p>13. No one shall take a partner who has quitted his
+master without the consent of such master.</p>
+
+<p>14. A widow may employ servants in brewing, but may
+not take an apprentice.</p>
+
+<p>15. Master brewers shall not entice away one another’s
+apprentices nor servants.</p>
+
+<p>16. There shall be three masters elected for jurymen,
+two of which shall be changed every two years.</p>
+
+<p>17. Such jurymen shall have the power to inspect in the
+city and suburbs.</p>
+
+<p>In addition every brewer had to pay duty, so that the
+king might not be defrauded, was obliged to give notice of
+every brewing to a commissioner, stating the day and hour
+he intended to kindle the fire of his boiler, under a penalty
+of fine and confiscation. As brewing necessitates the employment
+of a large quantity of grain, it was customary, in
+times of scarcity, for the king to put a stop to the manufacture
+of beer for a certain number of weeks. These
+rules and regulations, made more than six hundred years
+since, are interesting and curious to the brewers of to-day.</p>

+<p>In the fourteenth century the monks were the ordinary
+brewers, and one brewery founded by them at Dobraw near
+Pilsen, Bohemia, and endowed by Charles IV. shortly before
+his death with a prescriptive right to brew beer, is still
+in existence and is probably the oldest in the world. Its
+five hundredth anniversary was lately celebrated with
+great pomp, by all classes of society in that ancient city.
+Bohemian beer is to be ranked with the very best known,
+and an idea of the annual product for home and foreign
+consumption may be formed from the fact that there are
+now no less than eight hundred and eighty-seven breweries
+in actual operation.</p>
+
+<p>In Austria, the first brewery built at Vienna was on the
+Weidenstrasse and dates back as far as 1384. The oldest
+standing brewery in the same place is the St. Marx Brew-house,
+founded in 1706.</p>
+
+<p>In the Provinces of Flanders and Brabant a beer brewed
+of malt and hops was the national beverage as early as the
+fourteenth century, and brewers occupied an important
+position and were held in high esteem. History tells us
+that one of them, <i>Jacob Van Artevelde</i> the Brewer of
+Ghent, a nobleman by birth, became a celebrated popular
+leader who drove Louis I., Count of Flanders, into France,
+held the government of the province and supported Edward
+III. of England until his death, July 17, 1345.</p>
+
+<p>His son Philip, who at one time was chosen ruler of the
+provinces and who died 1382, was as well known as a celebrated
+brewer as his father.</p>
+
+<p>To Flanders also belongs the celebrated Gambrinus, who
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_22">[22]</span>under his real name of Jan Primus, Duke of Flanders,
+ruled Flanders and Brabant wisely, and became the protector
+of the beer brewing fraternity. Under the popular
+cognomen, however, (to which many mythical attributes
+have been attached) he is universally known, and perhaps
+held in higher esteem by a greater number of adherents
+than all the saints, even including Saint Patrick, who have
+been canonized up to the present day.</p>
+
+<p>In England beer was introduced by the Romans. The
+Saxons found it there and improved wonderfully upon the
+discovery. For centuries it received, in the modern literature
+of England, the constant attention and consideration
+of churchmen, historians, poets and political economists.
+The churchmen especially were active in the improvement
+of malt liquors. William of Malmsbury says that the best
+brewers in England at the time of Henry II. were to be
+found in the monasteries, and every reader of early English
+literature remembers frequent allusions not only to beer in
+general but to that of the holy fathers in particular. The
+monks were the first to discover the peculiar fitness of the
+waters of Burton on Trent for brewing purposes, and
+may thus be said to have paved the way for the development
+of the enormous establishments that now scatter their product
+over all the world.</p>
+
+<p>According to “Tennant’s Guide to London,” published
+at the beginning of the present century, there were in the
+reigns of the Tudors great breweries at London, situated on
+the river-side below St. Katherine’s. In 1492 King Henry
+VII. licensed a Flemish brewer, John Merchant, to export
+a large quantity of the so-called “berre,” and that the
+beer had to be of good quality and was under the surveillance
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_23">[23]</span>of the authorities, is proved by the fact that Geffrey
+Gate, an officer of the king, twice destroyed the brew-houses
+on account of the weakness of the beer.</p>
+
+<p>In the reign of Elizabeth the demand for ale increased
+very largely, and we find mention of an export of five hundred
+tuns of the precious liquor at one time. This was sent
+to Amsterdam for the use of the thirsty army in the Netherlands.
+Mary Queen of Scots in the midst of her troubles
+seems not to have been altogether insensible to the attractions
+of English beer, for when she was confined in Tutbury
+Castle, Walsingham, her secretary asked “At what place
+near Tutbury beer may be provided for her majestie’s use?”
+To which Sir Ralph Sadler, governor of the castle made
+reply, “Beer may be had at Burton, three miles off.” This
+Burton on Trent began to be famous for its water in the
+thirteenth century. There is a document still extant, dated
+1295, in which it is stated that Matilda, daughter of Nicholas
+Shoben had released to the abbot and convent of Burton on
+Trent certain tenements, for which release they granted her
+daily for life two white loaves from the monastery, two gallons
+of conventual beer and one penny, besides seven gallons
+of beer for the men.</p>
+
+<p>In the fifteenth century the monks in Germany brewed
+two kinds of beer in the convents, one kind for the <i lang="la"> Patres</i>,
+and an inferior beer for the convents.</p>
+
+<p>In the sixteenth century the breweries in Germany were
+already celebrated for their malt beer.</p>
+
+<p>Cities not having good cellars, on account of which good
+beer could not be produced, were provided with the beverage
+through their city fathers from other places, stored
+and sold in the cellars of the city hall, hence the origin of
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_24">[24]</span>the name Rathskeller. The most celebrated beer at that
+time, was the Braunschweiger Mumme, and the beer of
+Eimbeck, Merseburg and Bamberg. Beer before it could be
+sold had to pass a strict examination by a committee consisting
+of brewers of the greatest reputation, appointed by
+the burgomaster under and by advice of the city fathers;
+and a “Brauherr,” (proprietor and brew-master of a brewery)
+was a man of importance. In the principality of
+Brandenburg—afterwards the kingdom of Prussia—it was
+thought as early as the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
+that beer was the most wholesome of all beverages, and the
+electors of Brandenburg, later the kings of Prussia, fostered
+breweries by the concession of numerous privileges which
+were increased from time to time. Grants of this character
+and of no small advantage were held by brewers in Cottbus,<a id="FNanchor_1" href="#Footnote_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a>
+Province of Brandenburg, and were considerably enlarged
+by Frederick the Great in favor of Huguenots who had at
+his invitation settled in the kingdom after being forced by
+the revocation of the edict of Nantes to leave France.
+These privileges, enjoyed by the Toussaints, Salems and
+others for many years, were abolished by the declaration of
+the freedom of trade in 1838.</p>

+<p>After the year 1721 coffee began to be extensively used,
+and at last Frederick the Great in order to check its introduction
+erected large coffee roasting establishments which
+had a monopoly of the business, and where the coffee was sold
+at an enormous price, only the nobility, having the right of
+roasting their coffee beans. “Coffee smellers” or spies
+were appointed to look out for evaders of the law, just as
+we have now beer and whisky smellers. On the 13th
+day of September, 1777, the great king issued his celebrated
+“coffee and beer manifesto.” It was particularly addressed
+to the provincial members ( <i lang="de">Landstande</i>) of the provinces of
+Pommerania and Brandenburg, which were called the nurseries
+of his armies, and read as follows: “It is disgusting to
+notice the increase in the quantity of coffee used by my
+subjects and the amount of money that goes out of the
+country in consequence. Everybody is using coffee. If
+possible this must be prevented. My people must drink
+beer. His majesty was brought up on beer and so were his
+ancestors and his officers and soldiers. Many battles have
+been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer, and the
+king does not believe that coffee-drinking soldiers can be
+depended on to endure hardship or to beat his enemies in
+case of the occurrence of another war.” This proclamation
+had the desired effect, and coffee was thenceforth used
+merely as a luxury, while beer became the usual drink of
+the people.</p>
+
+<p>In the United States the pioneers in the brewing business
+were William Penn and Jacobus, a Dutch brewer of whom
+Irving tells us that he left the States General of Holland
+to settle on Manhattan Island in company with Hendricks,
+the Kips and others. It will be remembered that Manhattan
+Island was discovered by Hendrik Hudson in 1609
+when he passed inside Sandy Hook in search of a northwest
+passage, and that it was granted by charter of the
+States General to the West India Company to colonize the
+island. The company was not slow to discover the advantages
+of such a concession and immediately set at work to
+build forts, a church, a mill and a bakery while Jacobus, who
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_26">[26]</span>thoroughly understood the good effects of beer and the benefits
+that would follow its introduction in the colony, established
+a brewery (in 1644) and a beer garden on what is now
+the corner of Pearl street and Old Slip. He afterwards became
+the first burgomaster and is said to have dispensed beer
+and justice with equal gravity and impartiality, and to the
+complete satisfaction of the inhabitants of new Amsterdam.</p>
+
+<p>It may be interesting to some readers to know that while
+Jacobus settled near the lower end of the present city the
+Kips were established in the neighborhood of Bellevue
+Heights, and that on a part of that settlement—in East
+38th street—stands now the well known and justly esteemed
+lager beer brewery of A. Huepfel’s Sons.</p>
+
+<p>Somewhat later the same business was undertaken by
+Israel and Timothy Horsfield, who came from England, one
+in 1706 and the other in 1720, and settled in Brooklyn,
+L. I. Their brewery was near the ferry in what is now
+Wallabout.</p>
+
+<p>William Penn, 1644-1718, a man of Dutch extraction on
+his mother’s side, founder of Pennsylvania and the leading
+spirit of its settlement—so justly celebrated for his virtues—brewed
+and sold beer at Pennsbury, Bucks County, Pa.</p>
+
+<p>Good Quaker as Penn was, he was no ascetic. He was
+a great lover of beer, and accustomed to praise his own
+brewing—he was not averse to society, in his house was no
+lack of comfort, his table was well provided, and his taste
+for good living could never be impeached—dancing did not
+shock him, for both he and his family patronized country
+dances and country fairs, and William Penn’s beer was the
+beverage used on such occasions.</p>
+
+<p>Under his proprietary laws he allowed beer to be sold
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_27">[27]</span>free of license, and this sensible enactment was continued
+under the state laws until the year 1847, when a ten dollar
+license was substituted. Such a tax certainly compares
+favorably with that of many other states and displays a moderation
+and reasonableness that does credit to the Quaker
+community and is in strong contrast to the spirit recently
+exhibited in some parts of the country.</p>
+
+<p>Another celebrated promoter of early beer brewing in
+America was Gen. Israel Putnam, known to every child as
+the hero of the wolf’s den and the desperate ride down the
+rocks, and to an older generation as a brave soldier and
+marked character, the man who “dared to lead where any
+dared to follow,” and who has gained a higher position in
+history by virtue of his personal qualities and a touch of
+romance that clings to his name than might strictly attach
+to his military services.</p>
+
+<p>Although generally known as a Connecticut man he was
+born at Salem, Mass., 1718, and in 1739, at the age of
+twenty-one, removed to Pomfret, Conn., and later to Brooklyn
+in the same state, with which latter place his name is
+afterwards associated. Here as a farmer and tavern keeper
+he passed the remainder of his life except that considerable
+part which was given to the active military service of his
+country. The change from the life of a successful soldier
+to these commonplace pursuits would seem to many to be
+near akin to a fall, but Putnam’s practical good sense found
+no difficulty in it. When he returned from the army he
+resumed his farming, tavern business and beer brewing, and
+seems to have had no false shame at either of the humbler
+avocations. Like a wise and self-contained man he did the
+work nearest to his hand and found honor in it whatever it
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_28">[28]</span>might be. On the other hand, however, it is no small credit
+to the beer brewing fraternity to have had such a man in
+their ranks, even were it in a more limited and incidental
+way than was actually the case. The tavern sign of General
+Israel Putnam, which hung before his door in Brooklyn,
+(Conn.,) in the year 1768 and later, is now preserved in the
+rooms of the Historical Society at Hartford, (Conn.,) and
+an illustration representing it will be found on the opposite
+page.</p>
+
+<p>The sign is made of yellow pine, painted alike on both
+sides. The device is a full length portrait of General Wolfe,
+dressed in scarlet uniform. The portrait of the young hero
+is quite correct.</p>
+
+<p>The sign was presented to the Historical Society by Rufus
+S. Mathewson of Woodstock.</p>
+
+<p>Aside from the early public breweries there were doubtless
+many in which beer was made for family consumption.
+“Home brewed” was common in the native homes of most
+of the colonists, and there is no reason to suppose that they
+voluntarily changed their accustomed manner of living and
+dispensed with a wholesome drink to which they had been
+used from infancy.</p>
+
+<p>In leaving this branch of the subject it should be noted
+that the beer of the earliest periods, like the ale of England
+before the seventeenth century, was usually made without
+hops, and it is impossible to say when these were first
+employed, although the experiment was certainly of no very
+modern date. It was probably the greatest improvement
+ever made in the production of beer, since it gives a light,
+clear, and elegant product very different from anything that
+was produced on the other plan. The modern demand was
+for a drink that should be agreeable, refreshing and moderately
+stimulating, and it is now abundantly recognized that
+the fermented decoction of malted barley, clarified and preserved
+by the hops, best fulfills this requirement.</p>

+<p>Beer has been considered a necessity in all generations,
+and only in this, the nineteenth century, have extremists
+arisen to condemn its use. It is worthy of note that its
+greatest enemies are among a class who, in the olden times,
+were its greatest friends. The old abbeys and monasteries
+were the places where the best malt liquor was brewed;
+and not least among the benefactors of their species were
+the Franciscans and Dominicans, who brewed good beer to
+cheer the hearts of toiling humanity. Bishops have written
+in its praise; universities have encouraged its production;
+and kings having the comfort and contentment of their
+subjects in view have cared for its proper provision. Under
+date January 27, 1617, it is noted in “Langbaine’s Collections”
+that one John Shurle had a patent from Abraham
+Lake, Bishop of Bath and Wells and Vice Chancellor of
+Oxford, for the office of Ale-taster to the university. “The
+office of Ale-tasting requires that he go to every ale-brewer
+that day they brew, according to their courses, and
+taste their ale; for which his ancient fee is one gallon of
+strong ale and two gallons of strong wort.”</p>
+
+<p>Such a fact is enough to make the modern teetotal dominies
+stand aghast, but it may well be doubted if they are
+better or wiser men than their predecessors, one of whose
+distinguishing characteristics was usually a sound common
+sense in the ordinary affairs of life.</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">EARLY HISTORY OF BEER—CONTINUED.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>With the close of the preceding chapter we had intended
+to leave this branch of the subject, but a paper of Hans
+von der Planitz, written in German on the same topic, is
+so interesting that we cannot do better than quote a considerable
+portion. It is written with genuine enthusiasm
+and is valuable not merely for its facts regarding the early
+history of beer, but also as a picture of customs and manners,
+often given in the words of writers contemporary with
+the circumstances described. The picturesque or realistic
+effect of the old German has been as far as possible preserved
+in the rendering of passages written in that style,
+and very often the original is added in a note or otherwise,
+for the enjoyment of readers who are able to appreciate its
+flavor. Quotation at such length has involved a trifling
+amount of repetition of matter already stated, but it has
+seemed better to submit to this than to mutilate an independent
+account, much of whose effect depends on its manner
+of developing the subject. Commencing with the ninth
+century the writer says:</p>
+
+<p>“Beer brewing in England and Flanders is mentioned by
+Walafried Strabo. (849 A. D.) It had been known from
+a remote antiquity and continued in use partly, at least,
+through Celtic influence. In France beer gradually gave
+place to wine, while in Germany it made good its position,
+and lager beer was discovered as early as the thirteenth
+century, that of the Mark being especially celebrated. In
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_31">[31]</span>
+Bohemia the earliest account of beer brewing dates as far
+back as 1086 A. D. Poland and Prussia were addicted to
+the barley juice before the time of modern civilization and
+honored a special god of beer, <i>Raugunzemapat</i>, whose name
+is derived from <i>rugti</i>, to ferment, and literally signifies the
+god of fermentation. In Bavaria, where, under Roman influence,
+wine growing had attained an important place which
+it was destined afterwards to lose, beer was commonly
+known within the first thousand years of the present era
+and is mentioned by Voehrung, 816, and others. According
+to Graesse it was a dull brown and reddish drink and soured
+easily. In the more primitive districts oats were used as
+the basis, and only “upper-ferment” beer was made. In
+the latter part of the middle ages the process by “under
+fermentation” was discovered, its origin, according to Professor
+Holzner of Weihenstephan, being in one of the monasteries.
+From this point beer brewing increased vigorously
+until Bohemian competition and Bohemian hops gave it a
+staggering check. In the southern countries of Europe
+beer does not easily give place to wine though hard pushed,
+while in Asia and Africa the inhabitants use their traditionary
+drink from one generation to another, and in Egypt
+especially, the Arabs acquired a taste for the beer of the
+Copts. Such was the condition of things when the dawn
+of a new age showed itself on the horizon.</p>
+
+<p>“The characteristic of a period is found essentially in its
+variation from the adjacent epochs, and that of the one
+under consideration has been already indicated. But beside
+the scientific researches, that had very little connection with
+trade, there grew up a descriptive literature that stands in
+close relation to the first general empire of beer. To suppose
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_32">[32]</span>that the present age is the first time of real triumph
+for the liquor of Gambrinus, shows a very superficial knowledge
+of the history of civilization, for apart from the Egyptian
+and Celtic-Germanic beer epochs, which were somewhat
+local, we have already long passed the real first period
+of success which fell in the time of the <i>Renaissance</i>. In
+those days the brown flood spread out not merely over Germany,
+England and Belgium, but into the far corners of
+recently discovered countries; in village taverns and <i lang="de">rathskellers</i>
+peasants and citizens drank themselves full and
+merry. At the high schools the students already went to
+the <i lang="de">kneipen</i> with their rapiers ( <i lang="de">spiessen</i>) and swords, studied
+and rioted behind the tin can, and in the banquet halls of
+princes and the cabinets of noble ladies, the barley juice
+was a favorite beverage, not swallowed hastily from tumblers,
+but taken with deliberation and full enjoyment from
+deep, wide-mouthed mugs or tankards. Seven maas a day
+was the allowance for a lady of high rank.<a id="FNanchor_2" href="#Footnote_2" class="fnanchor">[2]</a> About the
+end of the seventeenth century the increasing use of brandy
+and coffee put a stop to this immoderate consumption, as at
+the same time the influence of France and the colonies with
+their new dishes and resulting change of tastes, brought
+about the progress from middle age cookery to that of modern
+times, and as the Gustavus Adolphus boots and wide-brimmed
+plumed hats gave place to silk stockings and
+perukes. The present age witnesses the second triumph of
+Gambrinus, a triumph perhaps even greater than the first,
+for though the capacity of individuals is far from equal to that
+of the men of the Renaissance, except in the case of
+some academic beer soakers and Munich <i lang="de">Danaidenfaesser</i>
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_33">[33]</span>(bottomless vessels), yet the distribution of beer is more
+extensive, more general and more uniform. The consumption
+in Europe alone has increased tenfold within fifty years
+and grows constantly. In the first quarter of this century
+the wave spread from Bavaria farther and farther over the
+whole map of Europe, and about twenty years ago a new
+source was opened in Austria, and the Vienna beer flowed
+through the canals which the Bavarian product had opened.</p>

+
+</div></div>
+
+<p>This first epoch stands in close relation with the general
+abounding strength of that period of civilization. Adventurous
+sailors and explorers had broken the bonds of the known
+earth, plain men had dared to enter the lists with that hierarchy,
+to attack which had been held profanation; art had
+thrown aside the old traditions and brought out the old
+master-works, the world of scholars had torn itself loose from
+petrified scholasticism and turned to the ancient classics,
+and, as in most branches of science, so also in chemistry,
+there was a genuine revolution, and it was studied in reference
+to medicine almost as assiduously as it had previously
+been in the search for the philosopher’s stone. New inquiries
+were set on foot, old problems revived and attacked from a
+new point of view, and among these the subjects of yeast
+and fermentation played an important part. Not many decades
+have passed since the practical brewer found neither
+interest nor profit in theories of fermentation, and especially
+all chemical and physical discussion of his work and processes.
+The purely scientific style which too often had very little
+reference to the practical man, and the various contradictory
+views and learned controversies were not calculated to
+attract the interest of the beer brewer. Scholars discussed
+and disputed, the man of trade brewed and coopered, and
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_34">[34]</span>neither paid any attention to the other. Now the case is
+very different. Intelligent and thoughtful brewers have
+been forced to admit that an insight into the nature of the
+materials they use, and the changes these undergo while in
+their hands will not merely enlarge their intellectual horizon,
+but be of great practical use in their business, and in
+consequence are found keenly alive to the progress of scientific
+inquiry.</p>
+
+<p>Some reference has already been made to the empirical
+knowledge of the earlier ages. Even Pliny’s often quoted
+“<i lang="la"> Palam est naturam (farinæ) acore fermentari</i>” is merely
+a summary of the result of observation. Noah’s wine
+making, the leaven<a id="FNanchor_3" href="#Footnote_3" class="fnanchor">[3]</a> of the Jews and such like may be left
+to special history. The word <i lang="la"> fermentum</i> as used by the
+alchemists has no very definite meaning; in general their
+explanation is to the effect that by means of the ferment a
+purifying and refining process is set in action—and hence
+many efforts were made to discover a general ferment by
+whose instrumentality it would become possible among
+other things, to transform the baser metals into gold. For
+this reason they often use the word <i lang="la"> fermentum</i> to indicate
+the anxiously sought “philosopher’s stone.”<a id="FNanchor_4" href="#Footnote_4" class="fnanchor">[4]</a> The indefinite
+character of the word is mentioned by Petrus Bonus of
+Ferrara (1345): “<i lang="la"> Apud philosophos fermentum dupliciter
+videtur dici: uno modo ipse lapis philosophorum <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: e" id="e">ex</ins> suis elementis
+compositus et completus, in comparatione ad metalla;
+alio modo illud quod est perficiens lapidem et ipsum complens</i>,”
+and Raymond Lull’s definition, “<i lang="la"> Fili, fermentum est
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_35">[35]</span>corpus perfectum, subtiliatum et alteratum per potestatem
+convertentium</i>,” has the predicate so indefinite as to give no
+real information. We add another quotation from the
+same author merely to show further the jargon these men
+of learning were accustomed to use. He writes “<i lang="la"> Fili,
+præparatio istius est, quod illud sit transactum primo per naturæ
+principalia controvertentia, antequam de isto facias fermentationem,
+quia illud fiat principio pulvis calcinatus per
+coagulationem et quarto sublimatus per separationem.</i>”
+George Ripley’s consideration of the subject calls for no
+special notice, but the views of Basilius Valentinus who
+wrote in the latter half of the fifteenth century will be
+found more interesting. He held fermentation to be a purification
+by means of which the spirit of wine that already
+existed in a fluid was put in condition to act, unfermented
+beer being dead, “because existing impurities prevent the
+spirit from doing its work. Yeast induces in beer an internal
+quickening that advances of itself and results in a
+division and segregation of the clear and muddy elements,
+and after this separation <i lang="la"> puri ab impuro</i> the spirit can accomplish
+its duty successfully, as appears from the subsequent
+power of the liquor to produce intoxication.” Valentine
+is the last in the series of scholars who though belonging
+chronologically to a previous epoch must from the
+nature and relations of their inquiries be reckoned as belonging
+to the new era. It is not in the history of progress
+as in that of politics where two adjacent periods can be
+sharply defined and their limits assigned to exact dates.
+Progress goes on gradually, modifying or adding to what
+has already existed, and we do not clearly notice the transformation
+until it is complete or at least far advanced. So
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_36">[36]</span>it was in this case. Far back in the middle ages men
+turned their attention to the “ferment” and to fermentation.
+Much was written, much nonsense and humbug published;
+almost no results were attained, but the beginning
+was made. Men of the later time grasped the collected
+material, regulated and systematized the inquiry and vied
+with each other in its prosecution. Struggle and activity
+were then so universal that there was a disposition to consider
+fermentation a special branch of chemistry, and
+after treating of the fermentation of wine, beer, vinegar,
+etc., it was suggested that the whole vital process might be
+nothing more than a continual fermentation.</p>

+
+<p>Notwithstanding all that has been said it seems best to
+date the new epoch definitely from the beginning of the
+sixteenth century, and this although we can reckon no
+names or events of importance in the year 1501, and must
+pass over a number of decades to reach Libarius the first
+theorist of the second epoch. The reasons for such a division
+are various, partly to remove as far as possible all uncertainty
+from the discussion, partly because at that memorable
+time the general break with blind tradition and the
+development of new intellectual and social conditions took
+place in such a manner as to have a direct influence on the
+history of beer and so connect the general revolution with
+the province of zymotechnic inquiry. If we date from <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: Labarius" id="Labarius">Libarius</ins>
+we commit an anachronism, for he stands in the full
+light of the new era. In short, beer and its history are
+so intimately related to social life and its development that
+we cannot consider the former alone and without regard to
+the latter. The oldest book in this sort of literature at present
+known, was published in 1530, under the title, “An Excellent
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_37">[37]</span>Little Book of the Making of Wine and Beer so that they may
+be Useful and Wholesome to Man. Printed at Erfurt by
+Melchior Sachssen at Noah’s Ark.”<a id="FNanchor_5" href="#Footnote_5" class="fnanchor">[5]</a> In 1551, a scholar
+(Plocotamus) wrote “<i lang="la"> De natura cerevisiarum et de mulso</i>,”
+and somewhat later (1585) Thaddeus Hagecius ab Hayek
+wrote in Latin a work with the title “<i lang="la"> De cerevisia ejusque conficiendi
+ratione, natura, viribus et facultatibus</i>.” More important
+than any of these is a book written in German by Heinrich
+Knaust, its value consisting not so much in historical deductions
+as in a review, grounded on the personal knowledge
+of the author, of the facts regarding beer in his time. It is
+chiefly through this volume that we are able to form a clear
+conception of the high development and actual power of beer
+at the end of the sixteenth century. On the first page of the
+book the master wrote in a style thoroughly characteristic
+of the period with its swelling, stilted bombast and magniloquence,
+the famous title, “Five Books of the Divine and
+Noble Gift of the Philosophical, Precious and Admirable
+Art of Beer Brewing. Also of the names of the most Admirable
+Beers in all Germany, and of their Natures, Temperaments,
+Qualities, Individual Characters, Wholesomeness,
+and Unwholesomeness, whether wheat or barley, white
+or red beer, spiced or not spiced. Newly revised and much
+Fuller and More Perfect than the former edition. By Master
+Heinrich Knaust, Doctor of Law and of Medicine.
+Published at Erfurt by George Baumann, 1575, in the
+twelfth month.”<a id="FNanchor_6" href="#Footnote_6" class="fnanchor">[6]</a> As a matter of curiosity we reproduce
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_38">[38]</span>his view of the origin of beer. According to this the men
+before the deluge ate herbs and vegetables and drank water,
+and he thinks it strange that they should ever have plucked
+up heart to become saucy on such a diet. “After the deluge
+they received the gift of wine, and where no vines
+grew God taught them to make a drink of wheat and barley
+that was both healthful and agreeable and as well fitted
+to strengthen and support the human system as wine itself.”</p>

+
+<p>When a well known physician of Berlin, Dr. F. G. Zimmerman,
+felt himself compelled to declare beer a poison, it was
+Abraham A. Santa Clara of Vienna who, in his “History
+of the Discovery of Beer,” entitled “Something for All,”
+1710, spoke as follows: “Noah planted the first vineyard
+and the culture of the vine afterwards spread all over the
+world, but as some climates are too harsh for the grape and
+prevent its ripening, human ingenuity was forced to discover
+another drink which should not merely quench thirst, but
+like wine excite the brain.<a id="FNanchor_7" href="#Footnote_7" class="fnanchor">[7]</a> Among the Germans it is
+called beer, and its brewing requires a special experience,
+so that the men of this craft are not counted least among
+workmen.” So said also Ehinger, Fritsch, Germershausen,
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_39">[39]</span>Gleditsch, Heuman, Hofman, Sensky, Solms and Trafenreuter.
+In all this scientific and learned emulation in the
+matter of fermentation (zymologie) we learn plainly enough
+that even the representatives of science did not confine their
+attention to a purely theoretical consideration of the barley
+juice, but hid the contents of many a can and mug behind
+their wide stiff collars, the clergy taking their full share in
+this part of the discussion. Luther’s fondness for beer is
+well known, and on the evening of that eventful day at
+Worms, April 18, 1521, the Duke Erich von Braunschweig,
+sent him a pot of Eimbecker beer, to which he was
+specially addicted. The students, whether of medicine or
+theology, used every effort to follow faithfully the illustrious
+example, whence perhaps it comes that the youth of the
+high schools and universities, wedded to tradition, still delight
+to hang about the inviting, wide-yawning door of the
+cool beer cellar. In the Renaissance, however, the last
+trace of the <i lang="de">Biercomment</i> and <i lang="de">Bierspielen</i> was finally lost.</p>

+we see plainly enough the origin of the later shop signs.
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_40">[40]</span> In <span lang="de">Oberpfalz</span> (the Upper Palatinate), in the <span lang="de">Schwarzwald</span>
+(Black Forest), and elsewhere, even now when a privileged
+brewer wishes to give notice that he will sell on draught,
+he hangs up a broom or a triangle of fir boughs. The publicans
+of a later time simply exchange this primitive advertisement
+for the more durable ones of tin and iron. Before
+the windows of the pot houses were folding tables at which
+the wagoners usually preferred to drink, and the wandering
+bands, of whom there was then an immense number, were
+accustomed to seat themselves at these same tables and pass
+the time in riotous talk and games of dice until the “beer
+bell” of the place broke up the assembly and drove them
+to their homes and to the inn.<a id="FNanchor_9" href="#Footnote_9" class="fnanchor">[9]</a> When a fair was held the
+women dealers in refreshments (<span lang="de">Kretschenweiber</span>) took
+possession of the benches and sold their beer there in cups
+of tin, stone or wood, while bread, meat, sausages, cheese,
+etc., were brought from the neighboring stands of the
+butchers and bakers, for even then people liked to do their
+business where wine and beer were close at hand. On any
+occasion of public festivity beer booths were a prime necessity,
+bagpipes and fiddles were not wanting and a lusty,
+merry throng danced in the open space between the crowded
+benches and tables. The Netherlandish painters have left
+us hundreds of cabinet pictures of these festivities and of
+the manner and fashion in which they were carried on, and
+their delightful and characteristic variations of the theme
+enable us to form a vivid conception of what it must have
+been. Especially worthy of notice in this respect are
+Teniers, (whose “Yearly Market”<a id="FNanchor_10" href="#Footnote_10" class="fnanchor">[10]</a> in the Munich <span lang="de">Pinakothek</span>
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_41">[41]</span>contains 1138 human figures, 45 horses, 67 asses, 37
+dogs, etc., curiously crowded in a jovial throng,) P.
+Brueghel, the Ostades, Brower, Jan Steen, who from a
+fancy for this sort of life himself became a tavern keeper,
+and Rubens, whose sketches in this sort are strikingly good.
+During the “Thirty Years War,” that is, at the very culminating
+point of the epoch, tobacco came into use and the
+now inseparable pair, “beer and tobacco,” played an important
+rôle together even then. Barley and “mixed corn” (rye
+and wheat, barley and oats, oats and rye,) were chiefly
+used for brewing purposes, but there were always those
+who preferred plant beer. It is interesting to know that
+pitch was supposed to give the product of fermentation a
+better keeping quality.</p>

+<p>We must not omit to mention that this beer worship was
+not so well developed in South Germany where it is now
+best marked, as in North Germany. Saxony, the Mark and
+Pomerania were mentioned as “the great drinking countries.”
+There was a swarm of names celebrated in beer,
+and Knaust’s book shows that it was held no small credit to
+have drunk various noted kinds of beer where they were
+made. There was a Lubeck Israel, an old Klaus (Brandenburg),
+a <span lang="de">Goslauer Gose</span>, a <span lang="de">Hanover Braehan</span>, a <span lang="de">Soltzman</span> at
+<span lang="de">Saltzwedel</span>, a Rastrun at <span lang="de">Leipsic</span>, beer of Corvey, beer of
+Harlem, <span lang="de">Dantzic</span> brew, <span lang="de">Eimbecker</span> brew, and many others.<a id="FNanchor_11" href="#Footnote_11" class="fnanchor">[11]</a>
+Of English beer, Hersford (Kamma) and the Yorkshire ale
+were chiefly esteemed. Most celebrated of all, however,
+was the Braunschweig <i>Mumme</i>, named for its discoverer,
+Christian Mumme (1492). By the side of these brewing
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_42">[42]</span>celebrities the old beer cities of the middle ages had retained
+their character into the time of the Renaissance, as for instance,
+Hamburg, with its wheat beer,<a id="FNanchor_12" href="#Footnote_12" class="fnanchor">[12]</a> and others; and many
+places made every effort to reach a similar position, partly
+by the adoption of new methods, and partly by the enlargement
+and increase of beer breweries. In Nuremberg, for
+instance, the first white beer was brewed in 1541; in Vienna
+the brewery with a hundred towers was built in 1564;
+breweries were erected at Gumpendorf in 1689, and at St.
+Marx in 1706; and in 1633 there were established at Freiburg
+six malt-houses and twelve breweries.</p>

+<p>The important beer privileges that had been so eagerly
+grasped by the monasteries and cities in the middle ages,
+were by hereditary right brought over into the new era.
+The landed estates of the nobles received back in 1517 the
+privileges which had been so long kept from them, and by
+this means all obstacles were removed from the beer traffic
+which had reached so hopeful a development during the
+middle ages, and it became possible for it to develop to an
+extent of which our own time need not be ashamed. Now
+it is no great matter to transport beer from Vienna to Paris
+by rail and in iced compartments, but we can not but admire
+the successful enterprise that in those days and with
+such means of transportation as existed, could export Eimbecker
+beer to Lombardy as described by the Italian
+Arnoldus of Villanova in 1594, and even to Alexandria and
+Cairo. Nuremberg was one of the great centers of the beer
+trade. Rostock and Lubeck supplied all England and sent
+not less than 800,000 barrels yearly to that country until
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_43">[43]</span>the business was checked by a marked increase in the
+quantity brewed by the English themselves. A number of
+the large English breweries were founded about this time.</p>
+
+<p>In the households of the reigning princes, there was a
+strong tendency to supplement the native brew by imported
+products, and at such festivities as marriages, christenings,
+target-shooting and hunting, immense quantities of drink
+were swallowed. The cellar ordinance of Duke Ernst the
+Pious, in 1648, allowed for ladies of noble rank four <i>maas</i>
+of beer a day, and three <i>maas</i> for a “nightcap.” How
+much ought in such circumstances to be the allowance for
+a man of similar rank, and of his hangers on is left to the
+imagination of the reader.</p>
+
+<p>Noble families that had no brew-houses were obliged to
+supply themselves from the brewery of the prince. A beer
+tax also was levied on vassals who brewed their own beer.
+An excellent illustration of the condition of things is afforded
+by the celebrated Hofbrauhaus at Munich, in whose whitewashed
+rooms every stranger still takes at least one <i>maas</i>.
+As early as the time of Louis the Severe, there existed a
+little court brewery at Munich near the <i lang="de">Burggasse</i>, but
+towards the end of the sixteenth century, the demand increasing
+and the facilities for production having long been
+inadequate, William V. proceeded to the building of the
+present brew-house, which was at first intended only for the
+making of white beer, the brown being still made in the old
+quarters. In 1708, however, brown beer also began to be
+made in the new establishment. This topic is treated in a
+stereotyped article which appears every year in the May
+number of the Munich Beer Gazette, under the title “Bock
+article,” and gives the worshipful bock-drinking community
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_44">[44]</span>a solemn and moving account of the court brewery and its
+products down to the minutest particulars. As regards
+bock itself, which is no longer an exclusive specialty of
+Munich, as a drink under the same name is sold every year
+in various cities, Graesse places its origin in the seventeenth
+century, and suggests that it was an imitation of the
+Eimbecker beer,—the last rather in virtue of a general theory
+and of a supposed play on words, Eimbeck, Aimbock Bock—than
+as an actual fact.<a id="FNanchor_13" href="#Footnote_13" class="fnanchor">[13]</a> He says that “the Munich Aimbock
+or Bock was made before 1616, the same that is now
+sold at the beginning of May on Corpus Christi day.” Now,
+however, it has been shown that all through the second
+half of the sixteenth century (1553-1574) Aimpecker and
+Eimbecker beer was spoken of, and that there was an import
+of beer to Vienna from Eimbeck as late as 1771, while
+no trace of any play of words on the name is discovered.
+Moreover, that the “bock cellar”<a id="FNanchor_14" href="#Footnote_14" class="fnanchor">[14]</a> (on the place of the
+present Restaurant Bonner) was in full operation at the
+beginning of the present century, is shown by Chr. Mueller
+who wrote under Max Joseph, and described the manners of
+the place very nearly as they were to be observed recently,
+just before the disappearance of this historical locality, and
+it is doubtless the fact that the larger half of the reputation
+of Munich beer is due to this specialty. Graesse, speaking
+of the high reputation of Bavarian beer, in which he includes
+as a matter of course that of Munich, is of the opinion that
+the general preference for it does not reach back farther
+than the early part of this century, and produces some important
+evidence to support this view of the case. On the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_45">[45]</span>other hand it is to be claimed in opposition that in such a
+discussion a careful distinction is to be made between
+Bavarian beer and Munich beer, since the renown of the
+first is relatively new and hardly goes to the first twenty
+years of the century, and its export did not begin in Munich,
+and also because that city has not yet been able to attain to
+the first rank as an exporter of beer. The reputation of
+Munich beer is older, for Mueller (1816) speaks of it as
+celebrated, and complains that the excellence of the native
+product is far surpassed by that of the Toelzer and Dachauer
+beers, and that the latter prevail in the Munich beer shops.
+This statement corresponds with the unfortunate situation
+of the beer interest that was inherited from the previous
+century, and that forces us to go back to the seventeenth
+century for a time of unquestioned supremacy for beer. In
+connection with this subject should be mentioned the successful
+founding of the Munich Court Brewery by William
+V. at the end of the sixteenth century, and these same old
+rooms should be regarded as the center and starting point
+where the fame of Munich beer was born and nourished,
+and where even through all the epoch of perukes and cues,
+after the fall of the monasteries that had contributed so
+much to the reputation of Munich beer, it was preserved
+from decay.</p>

+
+<p>In the seventeenth century, in the time of Louis XIV.,
+all Germany fell under the sway of French influence.
+There were French conversation, prayers and oaths, French
+amusements and French sins, French eating and drinking.
+An effort to imitate all the French fashions that the cavaliers
+brought from Paris was a characteristic of the sad
+season that followed, a time sad for patriots, sad for
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_46">[46]</span>beer brewers and for beer. Beer was <i lang="fr"> une boisson de commun</i>.
+The beautifully ornamented mugs and beakers were put
+away in the lumber-room ( <i lang="de">rumpel kammer</i>) and champagne
+glasses from Paris took their place. At evening,
+where formerly the jovial barons and their chief followers
+had encamped round the carved-oak table and laid a strong
+grasp on the mug—there was now a service of cakes and
+tea, and where formerly milk and pepper or beer was used
+as a morning draught, the coffee breakfast constantly acquired
+more use and repute. The common people, however,
+stood fast for the old way, and were never better
+pleased than when the privileged beer came to honor. At
+this time, too, the change of rôles took place, and South
+Germany entered on its new and important course at the
+beginning of the present century. (The brewery at St.
+Marx was built in 1710, and in 1732 there were three brew-houses
+at Schwechat.)</p>
+
+<p>It is as if the minds of men slumbered long, only to come
+at once into a never suspected activity. In the midst of
+the tumult we find Balling, Dreher, Sedlmayer, Kaiser,
+Otto and many others. Everything in brewing is changed.
+Laboratories spring out of the ground and discoveries and
+inventions come in countless numbers, brewing journals are
+started, schools opened, fairs and associations multiply, and
+all in the space of a single half century.</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">MODERN HISTORY OF BEER.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>From the account already given, it will be seen that beer
+not only took an early hold on the affections of the people,
+but kept its position wherever it was introduced. It is
+now well established in every civilized country and plays so
+important a part in the economy of nations that a review
+of the light in which it is regarded by different governments
+cannot fail to be both interesting and useful.</p>
+
+<p>In Germany the state uses every possible means to provide
+good, wholesome beer for the people. It is the habitual
+beverage of most of the population, used by them at
+their meals and their places of amusement, cheering but
+not intoxicating, and rendering them temperate, industrious,
+healthy and contented, a people whose bravery is beyond
+question, and whose peaceable yet progressive qualities
+tend to make the nation powerful, and its government
+respected at home and abroad. And yet an advance
+by the government of half a cent a quart on the price of
+beer has in years not long passed caused a serious riot.
+Cheap, wholesome beer is considered a necessity of life, and
+the attempt to increase its cost an interference with the
+primary rights of the community.</p>
+
+<p>In Austro-Hungary, too, for many years government supervision
+has secured the production of pure beer, which is
+sold at a very moderate price. Some of the breweries are
+very large and the product is by many held to be unsurpassed
+in quality. That of Vienna and Pilsen, in particular,
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_48">[48]</span>is universally known and esteemed. Beer is thoroughly
+the national drink, and the beer gardens of Vienna are the
+resort of all classes, from the Emperor down to his private
+soldiers.</p>
+
+<p>The most important men of the empire have extensive
+breweries, and among the great Austro-Hungarian brewers
+we find such names as Anton Dreher of Schwechat near
+Vienna, Count Arco Valley of Zell, Upper Austria, Count
+Arco Zinneburg of Kaltenhausen, Count Thurn Valsassina
+of Sorgendorf, and in Bohemia Count Thun Hohenstein of
+Alt Benatek, His Majesty the Emperor Franz Josef, Prince
+Carl Hohenzollern, Prince Trautmansdorf, Prince Josef
+Mansfeld, Prince J. A. Schwartzenberg, Prince Max Thurn
+Taxis, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Rudolf Count von
+Schoteck and many others.</p>
+
+<p>A correspondent says: “At Trieste the drinking of beer
+is universal; from infancy to age light wine and beer are
+the common beverages.” He states that on Saturday night
+a pretty large number of laboring people are “jolly drunk,”
+but not savage drunk. The latter condition is unknown
+except among English and American sailors visiting the
+port. Among the better classes no instance is known of a
+merchant, lawyer, physician, shop-keeper, or master-mechanic
+becoming an inebriate and gradually losing position,
+prosperity and business, and sinking into a drunkard’s grave.
+Sometimes an Englishman or American has ruined himself
+by the use of spirits—not of wine or beer.</p>
+
+<p>Holland has brewed good beer for centuries, and though
+this country has been better known as a producer of gin,
+the national beverage is certainly beer. Professors Tilamus
+and Swingar of Amsterdam, and the Secretary of the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_49">[49]</span>“Netherlands Society for the Abolition of Spirituous
+Drinks,” say that gin drinking is no longer respectable, and
+they recommend beer as a daily beverage. The beer gardens
+of Amsterdam and Rotterdam are very widely known.
+Good bands are provided and people of all ranks congregate
+to sip beer, smoke, talk, or listen to the music. On his first
+visit to these places the writer made careful inquiries as to
+the consumption of gin and other spirits, and was agreeably
+surprised to learn that their use was practically confined to
+the lowest classes and that beer was the common beverage.
+To find a drunken man it was necessary to go to the docks
+and wharves, among the Irish and American sailors.
+Nine-tenths of the gin manufactured is exported to the
+United States, and most of its use at home is for medical
+purposes.</p>
+
+<p>The little kingdom of Belgium ranks next Bavaria as a
+beer consuming country. There are three kinds of beer—Mars,
+a light beer and generally used by the laboring class,
+Lambic, strong and light, and the Faro, a mixture of Mars
+and Lambic. Brussels and Antwerp have some of the finest
+beer gardens in the world, which furnish music to their
+patrons equal to the best, and the general habits of the people
+are temperate. Drunkenness is hardly found even
+among the lower classes.</p>
+
+<p>Spain even is becoming a beer-drinking country. The
+beer formerly consumed there was imported from England,
+Germany and Austria, and in 1869 all the breweries in the
+country did not produce 500,000 liters, equal to 132,062
+gallons, while the returns of the year 1878 show a production
+of over 4,750,000 liters, or 1,254,594 gallons—an astonishing
+increase in a wine producing country—and the beer
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_50">[50]</span>brewed at the Santa Barbara brewery at Madrid is taking
+the lead of the imported article.</p>
+
+<p>Sweden and Norway also recognize the necessity of providing
+a wholesome stimulant for the people, and for more
+than a hundred and fifty years their respective governments
+have given attention to the matter. Not long ago patents
+for the manufacture of ardent spirits, which had long been
+held among the nobility, were revoked, and an attempt made
+to secure temperance through the more common use of
+malt liquors. Mr. George Hayward, then proprietor of the
+celebrated Lion Brewery at London, England,<a id="FNanchor_15" href="#Footnote_15" class="fnanchor">[15]</a> was engaged
+by the government to superintend the introduction
+of improved beer in Sweden, and the experiment proved a
+thorough success. As beer increased drunkenness diminished,
+and both <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: govenment" id="govenment">government</ins> and people have recognized the
+benefits of malt liquors. According to figures lately furnished
+by Dr. Ellis Sodenbladh of the Swedish statistical
+bureau, beer brewing has attained the position of a leading
+industry in that country. The annual product exceeds
+twenty-six million gallons, and this result is largely due to
+an increased tax on spirits and the remission of all taxation
+on beer, which may now be fairly considered the national
+beverage.</p>
+<div class="footnotes">
+<div class="footnote">
+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_15" href="#FNanchor_15" class="label">[15]</a> Mr. Hayward died a short time ago at Albany, N. Y.</p>
+
+</div>
+</div>
+<p>Denmark formerly consumed great quantities of ardent
+spirits, the amount used in proportion to the population
+being even greater than in the prohibitory state of Maine.
+The introduction of the excellent beer made by Jacobsen at
+Carlsberg brought about an entire change. Beer is now
+the drink of the country and public feeling is strongly opposed
+to the use of whisky. The people have become
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_51">[51]</span>remarkable for quiet and good order, and the police magistrates
+of the larger cities, as Copenhagen and Elsinore report that
+for a long time no cases of murder, homicide or theft brought
+before them have been traced to the influence of strong
+drink. Arrests for street disorder are very rare and chiefly
+confined among the foreign seamen. The consumption of
+beer is about twenty gallons annually to the individual, and
+this amount seems to produce only favorable effects, as the
+people are a strong, hardy race with an average longevity
+far above that of the United States. The advantages of all
+kinds that have followed the general introduction of beer
+are very remarkable.</p>
+
+<p>In Russia, a commission was some time ago appointed to
+investigate the question of drunkenness in the empire. The
+use of strong ardent spirits had been almost universal.
+Drunkards were not to be reckoned by individuals or even
+families. Whole districts were plunged in habits of brutal
+intoxication and this national pest demoralized the armies,
+filled poor-houses and hospitals, the lunatic asylums and the
+prisons.</p>
+
+<p>As a result of the labors of this commission, and in accordance
+with the unanimous report of its members, the Czar
+has recently conferred very valuable privileges on those who
+establish breweries in his dominions. The object being to
+secure for the people good beer at a low price, all taxes on
+beer and articles used in its manufacture have been abolished,
+while the use of ardent spirits is still further checked
+by the imposition of heavy duties on all introduced to the
+country, and severe taxes on its manufacture or sale; and<a id="FNanchor_16" href="#Footnote_16" class="fnanchor">[16]</a>
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_52">[52]</span>whenever the crop of barley turns out to be light, the government
+prohibits exporting the same.</p>
+
+<div class="footnotes"><div class="footnote">
+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_16" href="#FNanchor_16" class="label">[16]</a> Owing to a light crop the Russian government has prohibited the export of
+barley for the current year, 1879.</p>
+
+</div></div>
+
+<p>In Greece, breweries are springing up about Athens and the
+Piræus, and all over the Levant and the neighboring islands,
+and the <i lang="grc"> ek krithon methu</i> (barley wine) of olden times is
+going to be the ordinary beverage of the people instead of
+the rather strong wines that the country produces.</p>
+
+<p>In France during the reign of Napoleon III., it was discovered
+that the ardent spirits most in use were so adulterated
+as to produce serious injury to consumers apart from
+that which always attends the free use of these liquors.
+Spirits were used to a much greater extent than could be
+justified on any sound principle. The Emperor, whose practical
+judgment was excellent in matters not immediately affecting
+his own ambition, offered inducements to English
+and German brewers to establish themselves in the country
+and the consumption of beer was increased with very advantageous
+results. The change has already gone so far as
+to alarm the wine merchants, and according to the “British
+Mercantile Gazette” the consumption in Paris alone now
+reaches one hundred million <i>liter</i> bottles <i lang="la"> per annum</i> or
+nearly half a pint a day to every Parisian, which is not bad
+for a beginning. The beer used, however, is still chiefly of
+foreign manufacture, the lager beer coming chiefly from
+Vienna and Bavaria, and the ale from Alsopp and Bass.
+Some American brewers of New York, Philadelphia and St.
+Louis received gold medals at Paris for the excellence of
+their beer, and are now shipping considerable quantities to
+that place.</p>
+
+<p>Americans who have lately been in France must usually
+have been surprised to notice how <i>bogk</i> (lager beer) is already
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_53">[53]</span>the common beverage in the fashionable <i lang="fr"> cafés</i> of the
+chief cities.</p>
+
+<p>Some leading French savants trace a direct connection
+between the free use of beer and the national greatness and
+indomitable personal courage of their opponents in the late
+war, and hope by the development of the brewing interest
+to add to the traditional virtues of Frenchmen some of
+those displayed in the neighboring empire. The notion may
+be rather fine spun, but the actual benefit of the development
+of a home industry in beer will be none the less, and
+it cannot be doubted that their end will be at least partially
+attained, though perhaps not in so direct a fashion as they
+suppose. <span lang="fr">Monsieur Lunier</span> has just brought before the
+French Academy of Medicine, some very interesting statistics
+on the use of fermented and other liquors. According
+to him, wine is still the national drink. The consumption of
+cider is diminishing, although still large, and brandy is much
+used to facilitate the digestion of cider. The more cider, the
+more brandy. The quantity of beer used, has considerably
+increased in most of the Departments, and he proves conclusively
+that most cases of accidental death in consequence
+of excess, occur in the departments where there is most
+drinking of spirits, that apprehensions for drunkenness are
+five times as numerous in these Departments as in those
+where wine is chiefly used, that drunkenness in the beer-drinking
+regions is hardly known, and that alcoholic insanity
+is almost everywhere in proportion to the consumption
+of ardent spirits. The only exceptions are <span lang="fr">La Vendée</span> and
+<span lang="fr">Charente Inferieure </span>where they drink only white wines,
+but use them in immoderate quantities.</p>
+
+<p>French brewers are now engaged in forming an association
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_54">[54]</span>and the first meeting has been announced to take
+place at Toulouse, in the late autumn of the present year
+(1879). The <i lang="fr"> Industriel de Lyon</i> speaks of the matter as
+follows:</p>
+
+<p>“In consequence of their number, and as representing
+forty-two departments, the brewers who should support this
+association are most influential. They would, by means of
+combination, be able to properly protect their important industry,
+and struggle against errors of the past, such as excise
+regulations, octroi, etc. Besides the meetings of the
+Syndicate, whether held at Toulouse or Lyons, might take
+up general economical questions of interest to its members,
+and also deal with the fabrication of beer, malting, and the
+scientific phenomena, which are more numerous and complex
+than is imagined. Brewing, it is further asserted, is
+an industry of the future. Beer is a drink of progress on
+account of its refreshing and especially nutritive qualities.
+To produce beer cheap, appetizing to the eye, and agreeable
+to the stomach, is the program which the brewers of the
+South have in view, and which they must strive energetically
+to carry out if they wish to compete at all successfully with
+the German beers. The phylloxera is not an eternal enemy.
+Sooner or later science will neutralize its effects.</p>
+
+<p>“In the South of France, therefore, the opinion is held
+that the greatest care should be given to the production of
+beer. Besides, people in the South do not drink the good
+wine which they produce; they export it. Money is more
+valuable to them than good wine. Inferior wine, however,
+remains, and is consumed to a great extent. We are of
+opinion that beer would offer to all considerable advantages;
+and therefore it is desirable that the brewing industry in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_55">[55]</span>the South of France should be developed in the fullest
+possible manner.”</p>
+
+<p>In England about the year 1833 the use of intoxicating
+liquors had increased to such a point that government applied
+itself to the discovery of some means of diminishing
+the consumption. The Duke of Wellington, whose long
+career as a soldier on the continent and elsewhere had taught
+him the beneficial influence of beer, and who saw clearly the
+amount of misery and degradation caused among his countrymen
+by the use of distilled liquors, introduced while Prime
+Minister, the well known “Beer Bill.” Its passage was
+urged distinctly on the ground that a free consumption of
+beer would greatly diminish the use of spirits. The Duke
+himself strongly advocated the bill and instanced the continental
+beer-drinking countries as the happiest and most
+temperate on the globe.</p>
+
+<p>On the other hand the so-called temperance men appeared
+in large deputations to urge (against all reason) that whatever
+beer might be consumed would be in addition to the
+previous consumption of ardent spirits and not in place of it,
+or any part of it, that intoxication would be increased in a
+ratio correspondent to the amount of beer used, and in short
+that the proposed plan of reform was much like an attempt to
+quench fire by pouring on oil. The bill, however, was at last
+passed by a large majority and has proved very successful.
+The consumption of beer has largely increased, distilled liquors
+are less used, and, notwithstanding the assertions of some
+over-zealous partisans of total abstinence, we can prove by
+statistics carefully collected that the amount of drunkenness
+in the country began to decrease immediately after the passage
+of the bill. William E. Gladstone, the great English
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_56">[56]</span>statesman who, in the year 1868-9, carried through Parliament
+an act intended to promote the cause of temperance
+by cheapening wine and beer and making their sale part of
+the business of restaurants and confectioners’ shops, wrote
+a short time ago as follows: “I am opposed to coffee and
+tea palaces as I believe they are more deteriorating than beer
+shops. The stimulating properties of coffee or tea are greater
+and more injurious than those of malt liquors.”</p>
+
+<p>The course advocated by the Duke of Wellington and Mr.
+Gladstone has been fully justified by the results. Drunkenness
+has decreased and breweries have multiplied. The
+measure of advantage is to be found in the increase of large
+breweries whose product is distributed through many channels,
+for these furnish what is to take the place of the ardent
+spirit formerly consumed when one was away from home or
+wanted a change from the home-brewed ale to which he
+was accustomed. They also attract the favor of the poorer
+classes because they furnish so much more in bulk and nutritive
+power at the same or a less price.</p>
+
+<p>There are, however, many small breweries, such as those
+attached to country inns or to private houses. Some breweries
+also confine their business to supplying families with
+pale and table ales, stout or porter, in small barrels of four
+and a half, nine, and eighteen gallons. The number of
+breweries in Great Britain—aside from those which are
+strictly for private use—is, according to official returns,
+twenty-six thousand, two hundred and fourteen, which it
+will be seen is about nine times the number in the United
+States. The cost of good ale is about one shilling sterling
+a gallon.</p>

+
+<p>The late Khedive of Egypt, who has done more for the
+advancement of that country than any other ruler since the
+time of the Pharaohs, perceived the advantages to be gained
+by the introduction of beer, and granted very valuable privileges
+to a company of Swiss brewers, whose establishment
+is now in full and successful operation at Cairo. The
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_58">[58]</span>consumption is chiefly in the cities which are largely inhabited
+by Europeans, generally disposed to drink beer if it is good
+and readily attainable, but sure to use stronger drinks if
+the beer is wanting, and perhaps, from the circumstance of
+residence at a distance from home, more apt to use any intoxicating
+liquor to excess.</p>
+
+<p>Japan, a kingdom hardly known to us twenty-five years
+ago, and now recognized as one of the most highly civilized
+in the world, has thus far suffered very little from intoxicating
+drinks. Native stimulants have been used, and in
+some cases have proved as injurious as strong whisky,
+though perhaps more strictly harmful to the individual, and
+less so to his family and the community. The people are by
+nature and education gentle and polite, and their social manners
+are in many particulars a lesson to Europeans. They
+are usually temperate in all things, happy and contented.
+The Mikado, however, wisely considering that in the growing
+intercourse of Japan with foreign countries, a taste for
+ardent spirits can hardly fail to be developed, unless some
+counteracting influence be at work, has decided to foster
+the erection of beer breweries, and thus avert as far as possible
+an impending danger, while at the same time he gives
+his subjects an innocent and refreshing beverage. With
+this view, the representatives of Japan, now in Germany,
+have been directed to enter into arrangements with well-known
+brewers, for the erection of large breweries in Yokohama,
+Tokio, Saga, Nagasaki and Shidz-u-o-ka.</p>
+
+<p>The Shah of Persia also, is so far convinced of the advantages
+of beer, as to have made arrangements during his last
+visit to Vienna, for parties there to undertake its introduction
+in his kingdom.</p>

+<p>In Turkey, there are at Constantinople six breweries with
+an annual product of about one hundred and twenty thousand
+gallons. The hops are imported from Germany, but the

+worthy of notice that the first shipment by the <i>Thessalia</i>
+was fifty barrels of beer, a shipment well illustrating English

+<span class="chapt_sub">HOW BEER IS MADE AND WHAT IT IS.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>The production of beer, as of all other malt liquors, bears
+a striking similarity to the making of bread; the chief difference
+being in the quantity of grain employed, and the
+amount of water added. The one intended for a solid food
+is baked, the other for a liquid refreshment is boiled.</p>
+
+<p>The process of making beer is as follows: A certain
+quantity of malted barley is taken and ground, it is then
+mashed with hot water, the sweet liquor or wort extracted,
+a portion of hops added, and the whole boiled until the preservative
+quality as well as the aroma of the hops is obtained.
+It is then allowed to cool, and afterwards fermented with
+yeast to produce the small quantity of alcohol it contains,
+and to give it life. According to analyses made by different
+chemists, lager beer contains 91.0 water, 5.4 malt extract,
+3.5 alcohol, and the remainder—making in all 100 parts—carbonic
+acid. Ale and porter differ only in having a
+slight additional percentage of alcohol, and a large amount
+of solid extract.</p>
+
+<p>The substantial and useful character of the chief ingredient
+of beer may be seen from the nature of an analysis of
+the malt which forms its basis. The result is from Dr.
+Lermer, whose researches in this direction have been of
+great value.</p>

+<p>In the ordinary process of bread fermentation, a portion
+of the sugar contained in the flour is decomposed and converted
+into alcohol. It has been supposed that the whole
+of this alcohol was expelled by heat during baking; but recent
+experiments indicate that a perceptible amount still
+remains in yeast-raised bread after baking. The result of
+six experiments, showed that one-third of one per cent. in
+weight of alcohol was obtained from fresh baked bread.
+From forty loaves of fresh bread, two pounds each, alcohol
+equal to one bottle of port wine may be extracted.</p>
+
+<p>The celebrated Professor Balling of Prague, who has
+spent much time in the chemical analysis of different fermented
+beverages, arrives at the following result in reference
+to lager beer: “Lager beer manufactured of malt and hops
+according to the noble rules of brewing, properly fermented,
+stored for some time and perfectly clear, is a
+healthy and agreeable beverage, which when partaken of
+quenches thirst and strengthens, and thus combines the
+qualities of water, wine and food. The water is the thirst-quenching
+element, the wine the enlivening, the malt extract
+(composed of sugar, gum, etc.) the nourishing, and
+the carbonic acid gas the refreshing, while the hop extract
+strengthens the stomach, helps digestion, acts on the bladder
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_62">[62]</span>and is grateful to the human constitution. There is no
+doubt that lager beer brewed and stored strictly as before
+mentioned is hardly intoxicating.”</p>
+
+<p>An impression has gained ground in some quarters that
+as a matter of fact, beer is extensively and injuriously adulterated
+and certain persons claiming to be well informed
+have spread statements that potato starch, grape sugar,
+glycerine and molasses are added as substitutes for malt
+(barley), that Indian corn and rice are used instead of barley,
+that pine bark, quassia, walnut leaf, wormwood, bitter
+clover, aloes, picric acid, cocculus indicus and strychnine are
+substituted for hops, and that various chemicals are used to
+neutralize acidity or conceal dilution. A few of the first
+named would not be objectionable, unless in point of flavor,
+and as a matter of fact all of the substances named may at
+some time have been used by irresponsible brewers. A
+careful inquiry, however, has satisfied us that the adulteration
+of beer is rare, and one who reflects on the lively competition
+that exists in the trade must see how speedily and
+surely such a practice would be detected and exposed by
+business rivals. Touching the use of strychnine in particular,
+Dr. Ure says that</p>
+
+<p>1st. “Strychnine is exceedingly costly.</p>
+
+<p>2d. “It has a most unpleasant bitter, metallic taste.</p>
+
+<p>3d. “It is a notorious poison whose use would ruin the
+reputation of any brewer.</p>
+
+<p>4th. “It cannot be introduced into ordinary beer brewed
+with hops because it is entirely precipitated by the infusion
+of that wholesome, fragrant herb. * * * * Were the
+ <i>nux-vomica</i> powder from which strychnia is extracted even
+stealthily thrown into the mash tun, its dangerous principle
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_63">[63]</span>would be all infallibly thrown down with the grounds in
+the subsequent boiling with the hops.”</p>
+
+<p>When we remember the immense improvement in the
+quality of American beer within the past few years and
+learn how often expensive machinery and appliances have
+been abandoned after a short use in favor of something better,
+we can hardly believe that brewers who conduct their
+business after such a fashion, will at the same time try to
+make a petty profit by using poor material and so deteriorating
+the product on whose excellence the success of their
+business depends. The genuineness of beer from any established
+brewery may usually be taken for granted. In 1872
+after an extensive examination of beers in Great Britain
+only six samples were found to be adulterated.<a id="FNanchor_18" href="#Footnote_18" class="fnanchor">[18]</a></p>

+
+<p>An effort has been made by many so-called temperance
+papers to disseminate an opposite view in this matter and
+the statements made can only be excused on the ground of
+ignorance—which in the circumstances is inexcusable. No
+doubt beer has been often adulterated, but to represent the
+practice as common or as prevailing in breweries that expect
+to live and that have a character to maintain is to
+speak in contradiction to the facts and to common sense.
+Lately at Newark, New Jersey, charges of this general nature
+were made by a total abstinence speaker and the matter
+was for once taken up by the brewers of the city, in whose
+behalf a well known member of the trade addressed the
+following letter to the orator of the day:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p class="noindent">
+The <span class="smcap">Rev. W. F. Boole</span>, Brooklyn:<br>
+</p>
+
+<p><span class="smcap">Sir</span>—In a lecture delivered by you at Park Hall, Newark, N. J., on
+Sunday afternoon, July 13, 1879, you are reported in the <cite>Newark Morning
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_64">[64]</span>Register</cite> to have said: “The traffic is a traffic of compound poisons,
+and not even the finest imported liquors are free from them. Strychnine
+and stramonium, two deadly poisons, are used in the manufacture
+of beer, and a little potash is added to prevent the taste. Belladonna,
+one of the most virulent of poisons, is also used, and not less
+than 10,000 tons of the deadly cocculus are consumed. Cocculus is
+never given as a medicine, but it is drank daily by the masses in their

+
+<p>You, as a teacher of religion, should be a lover of truth. On behalf
+of the brewers of the United States, I denounce this statement as a deliberate

+
+<p>Thereupon the lecturer made answer that the papers had
+not reported him correctly. Here the matter might have
+dropped, and there was in fact an end of this particular phase
+of the question. The case, however, had made a stir and presently
+a representative of the teetotal party called at the office
+of the United States Brewing Association to collect information
+which was given him as a matter of course. Then
+came a proposition from the same party for a public discussion
+on the following extraordinary terms. Twelve propositions
+were to be advanced and supported by a practiced
+speaker on the teetotal side. The representative of the
+Newark Brewers was to have an opportunity to reply to
+each, and the other speaker was then to sum up and conclude
+the discussion. The brewers’ representative had only
+three days notice and naturally declined any such arrangement
+in which all the advantage was evidently assumed by
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_65">[65]</span>the other side. The discussion also was to be confined to
+one evening, and a collection was to be taken up “to defray
+expenses.” The Newark Brewers’ Association, however,
+expressed their willingness to debate on fair terms and
+with one evening for each proposition, but this arrangement
+was declined. We have taken pains to procure the
+twelve propositions of the total abstinence club, and append
+them here chiefly in order to call attention to the fact that
+the greater part are especially treated in this book, while
+the others are touched incidentally or by direct inference.
+The propositions are as follows:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+
+<p>No. 1.—The use of malt liquors is a direct cause of intemperance.</p>
+
+<p>No. 2.—The use of malt liquors tends to the use of stronger
+liquors.</p>
+
+<p>No. 3.—Malt liquors, if habitually used to any considerable
+extent, tend to cause ill-health.</p>
+
+<p>No. 4.—The claim that malt liquors are valuable as food is
+without foundation.</p>
+
+<p>No. 5.—As a medicine, malt liquors are of use only to those
+who do not ordinarily use them, and are dangerous because of
+their tendency to create habit.</p>
+
+<p>No. 6.—The theory that malt liquors can be substituted by
+consumers of alcoholic beverages for distilled liquors, to any important
+extent, is false.</p>
+
+<p>No. 7.—Beer in this country is far more evil in its effects than
+in Germany; but even there its bad effects, as used by the people,
+are obvious to every traveler who has no theory to maintain.</p>
+
+<p>No. 8.—The use of beer by the working classes has a direct
+relation to poverty.</p>
+
+<p>No. 9.—The use of malt liquors by the masses has a relation
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_66">[66]</span>to crime, which, though differing in some respects from that of
+distilled liquors, is marked and alarming.</p>
+
+<p>No. 10.—Beer saloons and gardens, as a whole, are demoralizing
+in their effects on individuals, families, and especially on
+children.</p>
+
+<p>No. 11.—The great increase in the use of malt liquors and the
+increase in intemperance for the past fifteen years have been
+parallel, and are intimately connected.</p>
+
+<p>No. 12.—That beer saloons should be subjected to the same
+restrictions under which ordinary grog shops are placed.</p>
+</div>
+
+<p>Further comment would be superfluous, especially as this
+whole matter is, strictly speaking, a digression from the
+purpose of the chapter, although one that is so natural as
+to be almost inevitable.</p>
+
+<p>There has also been much misrepresentation of the views
+of prominent men. For instance, the <cite>Religious Herald</cite> of
+Hartford, Conn., recently reprinted an article in which it is
+asserted that Professor Liebig “has proved to a certainty
+that as much flour as can lie on the point of a table knife is
+more nutritious than eight quarts of Bavarian beer, counted
+the best made. Also that the man who drinks two gallons
+of Bavarian beer a day for a year, gets only as much nutriment
+from his seven hundred and thirty gallons as he would
+from one five-pound loaf of bread or three pounds of flesh!”
+The article has been extensively copied all over the country
+and is calculated to do much harm by throwing the influence
+of an important name on a side where it was never intended
+to go.</p>
+
+<p>Now it is barely possible that Professor Liebig made such
+a statement as to nutriment of a special form, though we
+are not aware of any passage that can give the least color
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_67">[67]</span>to the assertion. On the other hand his real view appears
+in such passages as the following: “Pure lager beer, when
+taken with lean flesh and little bread yields a diet approaching
+to milk; with fat meat, approaching to rice or potatoes.”
+And again, “In beer-drinking countries it is the universal
+medicine for the healthy as well as for the sick, and it is
+milk to the aged.” These views are shared by almost all
+the eminent men who have made a scientific study of beer,
+and the opinions and results reached by a large number of
+chemists of high authority will be found in a subsequent
+chapter. “We have anticipated thus much here because in
+describing beer as it is, it seemed necessary to indicate to
+some degree what it is not, at least so far as to explain that
+it is not generally adulterated, and is not wholly useless, as
+a large party constantly asserts it to be.”</p>

+<h2 class="nobreak" id="CHAPTER_VI">CHAPTER VI.<br>
+
+<span class="chapt_sub">THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALE, PORTER AND LAGER BEER.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+<p>It has been already mentioned that the earliest beers
+were made without hops. After the use of this plant was
+discovered beer brewing as an art made rapid progress, and
+not only did every country make its own special sort of
+beer, but many varieties existed side by side in most of the
+German states and in England. Experiments were made
+with all sorts of grain, with potatoes and with plants and
+herbs, the object being in every case to produce a wort
+whose beer should have special advantages in point of flavor
+or cost or both. Gradually, however, most of the materials
+were quietly dropped, although potatoes are still used for
+the Strasbourg beer, and wheat forms an important element
+of the famous white beer of northern Germany. Barley
+is the grain that has universally been found best
+adapted to the purpose of making a brown beer of an agreeable
+flavor and of moderate price. With the question of
+material thus practically settled, it might be supposed that
+the difference between various brews of beer would disappear.
+On the contrary the number of varieties is to-day
+greater than ever before. Every step in the manufacture,
+from the selection of the grain and hops on to the final delivery
+of the product to the consumer, has something to do
+with the characteristics of the beer, and the difficulty does
+not lie in producing something new, but in reproducing accurately
+what has once been successfully tested.</p>
+
+<p>Whatever the distinguishing features of the product, it is
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_69">[69]</span>still beer, and any one specimen of the genus has the general
+properties of all the others. All beer has a notably
+small percentage of alcohol, the strongest ales and porters
+showing less than many specimens of cider; all contain an
+appreciable amount of solid nutriment which in some heavy-bodied
+beers is quite considerable; all are palatable and
+wholesome, and all are adapted to take the place of ardent
+spirits and thus reduce intemperance and drunkenness to a
+ <i>minimum</i>. It is hardly necessary to explain that in this book
+the word beer is used in its wide sense. When special varieties
+are meant they are spoken of by name unless the context
+is such as to remove all doubt.</p>
+
+<p>After the time of experiment and the disuse of most of
+the grains, etc., that had been tried, there still remained
+two well-marked varieties differing essentially in the mode
+of fermentation, and our modern ale and lager beer may be
+taken as types of the two kinds. The former is fermented
+rapidly at a high temperature and the fermentation checked
+while a considerable portion of sugar still remains unchanged,
+while the latter is fermented slowly and thoroughly at a
+low temperature. The first process is the one originally
+employed everywhere and has held almost undisputed
+ground in England, where, as might in such circumstances
+be expected, ale-brewing has reached its most thorough
+development. At the beginning of the eighteenth century
+there were in that country three recognized sorts, ale, beer
+and two-penny, differing chiefly in the quantity of malt
+used for each kind. These were often mixed to suit customers
+and in 1730, to avoid the trouble of constant mixing,
+a new drink was brewed, called “entire,” and meant to
+resemble the triple compound. This was afterwards known
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_70">[70]</span>as porter, and at present the general distinction is between
+porter and ale, though we still hear of small beer. The
+variety of ales, however, is very great. They are made of
+all colors and all degrees of strength, very bitter like the
+pale ale, and sweetish like the Scotch ale, so long-lived that
+they can be exported to hot climates and kept for years,
+and so short-lived that they must be used within three or
+four weeks. Some are perfectly clear and bright, and resemble
+nothing so much as Rhine wine, of whose flavor also
+they have an indescribable suggestion, while others are dark
+with solid extract and possess a characteristic delicate flavor
+that resembles nothing else. In this respect America is
+yet far in the rear. There is plenty of good ale but there
+has been no demand sufficient to cause so varied a supply
+or to develop so well-marked special flavors. When, however,
+we remember for how long a time cider was the common
+drink of the people to the exclusion of beer, and see
+how, in spite of such an obstacle at the start, the business
+gradually gained ground, and when we remember that outside
+the larger cities, even twenty years ago, ale was almost
+sure to be dull and muddy and very apt to be sour, we
+must admit that American ale-brewers have accomplished
+much. They have succeeded so far as to secure a large
+sale for their brew, and so far that now almost anywhere
+one is certain of a tolerable glass of beer—unless the existence
+of a prohibitory law excludes everything but whisky.
+Their success appears the more striking because of the
+recent great increase in the use of lager beer, for enormous
+as is the consumption of the latter it has hardly produced
+any effect on the sales of the ale-brewers. There is a large
+number who prefer the flavor of ale, others drink it from
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_71">[71]</span>habit and will always do so, others drink it because they
+ape English fashions, others because the comparatively
+secluded and unsocial character imported from England to
+our ale-houses suits them better than the more social and
+gregarious customs of the lager beer garden, some even
+because it is usually the more costly of the two beverages.
+Some doubtless prefer it because it usually contains a little
+more alcohol than lager beer, and very many use either beer
+indifferently according to circumstances and convenience.</p>
+
+<p>As to porter there is little that need be said. Its origin
+has been already mentioned, and when we add that the
+color is due to browned malt and its flavor to seeds or the
+like we have stated all that would interest the general reader.
+It is essentially a heavy-bodied ale, however great the superficial
+unlikeness.</p>
+
+<p>The difference in the manner of fermentation of ale and
+lager beer has been previously indicated, but the following
+passage from Professor Liebig will be found of interest:
+“In that country (Bavaria) the malt wort is set to ferment
+in open backs with an extensive surface, and placed in cool
+cellars having an atmospheric temperature not exceeding
+8° or 10° C (46½ or 50 F.). The operation lasts from
+three to four weeks; the carbonic acid is disengaged, not
+in large bubbles that burst on the surface of the liquid, but
+in very small vesicles like those of a mineral water or of a
+liquor saturated with carbonic acid when the pressure is
+removed. The surface of the fermenting wort is always in
+contact with the oxygen of the atmosphere as it is hardly
+covered with froth and as all the yeast is deposited at the
+bottom of the back under the form of a very viscid sediment,
+called in German <i lang="de">unterhefe</i>.”</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_72">[72]</span></p>
+<p>The process thus described results in the production of a
+beer which will not sour even if kept exposed to the air
+for a long time. Barrels only half full have remained uninjured
+for months. It is to be noticed, however, that both
+ale and lager beer can be prepared under many modifications
+of the main plan, and both are often made for immediate
+use without regard to keeping qualities and pass by
+the names of present use ale and Schenck beer.</p>
+
+<p>As lager beer usually contains a little less alcohol than
+ale, it has been most commonly spoken of by those who are
+striving to eradicate intemperance by introducing beer in
+the place of ardent spirits. The difference in alcoholic
+strength is not, however, so great as many persons suppose,
+the percentage in ales ranging from 8.88 to 5.36, while
+that of lager beer varies from 6.50 to 3.06. The kind of
+beer to be preferred for the work in any country is that
+best suited to the tastes and traditions of the people. On
+the continent of Europe and in America lager beer has
+thus far played the more prominent part, while in England
+the responsibility of all that has been accomplished belongs
+to ale.</p>
+
+<p>It is not improbable that the English brewing business
+has already reached its culminating point. A large part of
+the annual product has long been exported to the colonies,
+and now these are beginning to brew beer for themselves
+and will soon have a supply of their own make, sufficient
+in quality and quantity to make them independent of the
+mother country. With us the case is different. The consumption
+is increasing rapidly, and brewers show a wise
+liberality in securing new processes and appurtenances, and
+spare no effort to improve the quality of their product.
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_73">[73]</span>Those who make the best beer secure the most custom, and
+the fraternity are fully aware of the fact. All this rivalry
+cannot fail to benefit the consumer. Every year sees better
+ale and lager beer sent over the country, and every year
+something is contributed to the solution of the problem in
+brewing—to produce a mild beer that with more extract
+than is now found shall contain even less alcohol, and remain
+bright and refreshing. Whether full success in such
+an attempt is to be sooner reached by the ale or lager beer
+brewers remains to be seen, or it may well be that some
+new malt beverage may be discovered, unlike either of the
+others and superior to both. Such a result would be no
+more striking than other steps in progress already made,
+and brewers of large experience are to be found who believe
+that some such discovery is impending. In the meantime
+we have the satisfaction of knowing that America
+already produces malt liquors made from native materials
+that are wholesome and agreeable and at least up to the
+average of similar liquors made in countries where brewing
+has been carefully studied and extensively practiced for
+centuries, while with us it is chiefly a recent growth. The
+degree of success that is possible when we take into account
+the natural resources of the country and the enterprising
+character of the brewers is hardly to be realized.</p>

+
+<p>The brewing of ale has been so long an established industry
+in this country and advances so regularly from year to
+year as to offer no striking facts for comment. With lager
+beer the case is different, and the rapidity of the increase in
+its use is something remarkable. Fifty years ago it was
+hardly known as a beverage in the United States. Now
+and then some good old German would import a keg from
+his native home in the old country, to be drunk on the occasion
+of some great family festival, and call up in his adopted
+home thoughts of the merry days of youth and friendly
+faces, last seen perhaps in some deep valley of the Tyrol or
+in the shadows of a city that was old when the Pilgrims
+landed at Plymouth Rock. But in the case of so good a
+creature as lager beer such occasional and almost poetical
+use could not always remain the only one, and at last a
+German of Philadelphia conceived the idea of erecting a
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_75">[75]</span>lager beer brewery. According to the Hon. Frederick Lauer
+of Reading, Pa., (and we have all reason to put implicit
+faith in his version) it was introduced by one Wagner, a
+practical brewer who came from Germany to the United
+States in a sailing vessel in the year 1842, and shortly after
+landing he brewed the first lager in a miserable shanty on
+the outskirts of Philadelphia, and thus became the Gambrinus
+of America. (We would here refer the reader to the
+biographical sketch of Frederick Lauer, Esq., in Appendix
+A.)</p>
+
+<p>His success induced another German to try the same
+experiment on a small scale in the city of New York, and
+from this insignificant beginning the business has increased
+to its present immense proportions, so that there are now
+according to the latest return of the Internal Revenue Department
+at Washington, no less than two thousand eight
+hundred and thirty ale and lager beer breweries in active
+operation. The number is in fact considerably larger than
+that given by the Department, owing to the method of returning
+only those in actual business at the beginning of
+the year and to other causes. The annual product according
+to the Department figures, is over three hundred million
+gallons. More exactly the figures are, 303,147,552 gallons,
+or 9,473,361 barrels. In addition to this there are numerous
+private breweries where beer is made for home consumption
+but not for sale, and these do not fall under the Internal
+Revenue regulations and are consequently not reported.</p>
+
+<p>Figures as given below in reference to the capital invested
+in the brewing, malting and hop business, and taken after
+careful investigation from the best sources attainable, will
+give the reader a faint idea of its vast extent.</p>

+<p>A glance at the figures just quoted is enough to show
+that this branch of industry has become very important.
+Such a production implies the contribution of a large amount
+of capital, and after careful investigation of the most
+trustworthy <em>data</em> we find that there are more than three
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_77">[77]</span>hundred million dollars invested in breweries, malt-houses
+and other adjuncts of the manufacture of beer in the United
+States. The direct investment however, is not the only

+occupation not merely to vast numbers of laborers,
+but also to thousands of men who follow some profession or

+<p>It will be seen from this table that whilst the export of
+beer in casks has not considerably increased, the increase in
+the export of bottled beer has been very large. In 1870
+we exported 1,076 dozens, and in 1878, 76,475 dozen! This
+trade has especially been encouraged by the Philadelphia
+Centennial Exhibition, as it enabled us to show to the
+world the quality of our production.</p>
+
+<p>The gigantic establishments that, in many cases cover
+entire blocks, are monuments of very lucrative enterprise
+and ought to be the pride of the American people. The
+truth is, that, notwithstanding a yearly sale of more than
+300,000,000 gallons, the consumption of beer is yet in its
+infancy. With an increasing number of persons it ceases
+to be a luxury and takes rank with the other articles of
+daily food. The demand for it in all parts of the United
+States is increasing so rapidly that existing breweries are
+enlarged and improved, and new ones are springing up in
+every direction. In Appendices D, E and B will be found a
+list of breweries in the United States with the names of the
+proprietors and the product of each, together with the total
+product by States, as also the production <i lang="la"> per capita</i> in the
+various countries of Europe, the total production in the same
+countries, and the number of breweries in each, and we trust
+that these tables will not only be of service to the trade and to
+students of this question, but also serve to give some prominence
+to the men who have done much for the advance of
+genuine temperance and who deserve a more substantial recognition
+than any it is in our power to give.</p>
+
+<p>All this progress is a natural result of the actual benefits
+beer has bestowed on mankind, and these again follow logically
+and as might be expected from its constitution, containing
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_82">[82]</span>as it does a large portion of water from which all
+organic impurities are eliminated, a certain quantity of nutritive
+malt extract and a very small percentage of pure
+alcohol, obtained by fermentation and entirely free from the
+injurious properties it acquires in distillation, together with
+some of the carbonic acid gas so thoroughly approved by
+consumers of soda water. It offers to the public a beverage
+at once healthy, nutritious, and mildly stimulating, and as
+refreshing and exhilarating as tea, coffee or cocoa.</p>

+<p>Those who travel know very well the injurious effect of a
+change of water. In no two districts are the waters alike,
+and we could point to many instances where removal from
+East to West or from North to South and the consequent
+change of water has resulted in disastrous effects upon individuals.
+Any inconvenience of this sort would be diminished
+or altogether avoided by means of a free use of beer.
+Another similar advantage of beer is mentioned by Joseph
+Coppinger in his work on brewing, called “The American
+Practical Brewer, etc.,” published in New York in 1815.
+After recommending new ale as a preventive and yeast as
+an antidote to malarial fever, he continues: “Brewing, in
+every country, whose soil and climate are congenial to the
+production of the raw materials, should be ranked among
+the first objects of its domestic and political economy. But
+a still more important consideration is the health and morals
+of our population, which appears to be essentially connected
+with the progress of the brewing trade. In proof of this
+assertion, I will beg leave to state a well-known fact; which
+is, that in proportion as the consumption of malt liquors
+have increased in towns, in that proportion has the health of
+our fellow-citizens improved, and epidemics and intermittents
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_83">[83]</span>become less frequent. In the country it is well known
+that those families who make frequent use of good beer during
+the summer, are in general healthy, and preserve their
+color; whilst their less fortunate neighbors, who do not use
+beer at all, are devoured by fevers and intermittents. These
+facts will be less doubted when it is known that yeast, properly
+administered, has been found singularly successful in
+the cure of fevers.” The views thus expressed more than
+sixty years ago have recently received much attention and
+are now advocated by many eminent authorities who hold
+that they are confirmed by both fact and theory.</p>
+
+<p>The sum of the whole is that the beer brewing business
+has within a short time increased immensely—and strictly
+on the more general recognition of the merits of the product—and
+that there is every reason to anticipate at least an
+equal increase in the near future. Beer is already taking
+the place of ardent spirits and mixed drinks, and not long
+ago there appeared in the New York <cite>Sun</cite> the complaint of a
+bar-keeper who said in substance that the occupation of a
+skilled compounder of fancy drinks was gone, for anybody
+could draw beer and beer was what everybody wanted.
+Large gatherings now are more orderly than a few years
+ago and the reason is to be found in the general use of beer
+instead of whisky. At Coney Island the proprietors speak
+of the change as wonderful, and say that but for beer they
+could not get on, while now a disorderly occurrence is rare,
+no matter how great the throng. The same thing may be
+seen at the various races and in all such great assemblages
+of people who gather for enjoyment, and under the old regime
+were sure to become riotous.</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGES OF BEER OVER DISTILLED
+OR SPIRITUOUS LIQUORS.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>The peculiar advantages of beer as a wholesome and refreshing
+beverage, as compared with either ardent spirits or
+water have never been so clearly displayed as in the late
+war between France and Germany—and it may with truth
+be asserted, that it has triumphantly withstood the trial,
+and fully maintained its reputation.</p>
+
+<p>The German military surgeons, in their official report to
+the Imperial medical board, bear witness to the superiority
+of beer over wine. They not only state that the refreshing
+quality of the carbonic acid gas contained in beer makes it
+especially grateful to men fatigued by a long march, or exhausted
+by a day’s fighting, but lay still greater stress on
+its usefulness in the hospital and ambulance, and say that
+when it could be obtained it was administered with great
+success as a cordial, both to the wounded, and to convalescent
+soldiers placed for the time under their care. They
+add the interesting fact, that throughout that campaign the
+wounded invariably evinced a great longing for beer and
+that when brought into hospital with shattered limbs or severe
+cuts or gun-shot wounds, their first request was usually
+for a glass of beer. The same was true after severe
+operations, and the drink was found to compose and fortify
+their unstrung nerves. The natural inclination to beer as
+a restorative was very conspicuous among the soldiers who
+were on exposed outpost duty during the cold weather at
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_85">[85]</span>the time of the blockade and siege of Paris. The supply
+was scanty, and common soldiers did not hesitate to pay
+army followers a large price for a glass containing only a
+few mouthfuls of beer. The report of the Director General
+of the medical staff of the Imperial army is in the same
+tone, and concludes with a strong recommendation not only
+to supply the soldiers with rations of beer instead of spirits
+when employed on active duty, but also to introduce it as
+the usual beverage of the army in time of peace and when
+on home service.</p>
+
+<p>Professor Moleschott, the distinguished physiologist, in
+his work on the chemistry of food, treats of beer and makes
+the following statements: “The weak alcoholic solution
+called beer contains nearly the same proportion of albumen
+as is found in fruits, some sugar and gum, and another constituent
+which is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen,
+is soluble in water and is called the bitter principle of hops.
+* * * Fermented liquors, particularly lager beer taken
+in moderation, increase the secretion of the digestive juices
+and promote the solution of the food, and further, a good
+lager beer partakes of all the advantages of the alcoholic
+beverages and at the same time quenches thirst by the large
+amount of water it contains. Hence lager beer is particularly
+adapted to satisfy the frequent thirst caused by physical
+exercise, and it is a laudable custom to refresh artisans
+who have to work hard, with a glass of this beverage. Its
+albumen, equal to that of fruit, even supplies a direct substitute
+for food.”</p>
+
+<p>To this we may add that a laborer who has repeatedly
+experienced its invigorating property will by no means admit
+the truth of the assertion that a half-pound loaf of
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_86">[86]</span>bread and a pint of water are more supporting than a pint
+of beer. A glass of good beer may often be better than food
+or physic. We do not always want food and we seldom
+need physic, but a glass of beer is often a useful refreshment
+when the stomach is not prepared for the one and the
+system has no need of the other. Excessive physical labor,
+long Endurance of hunger, or anything else which has a debilitating
+influence, affects the appetite for solid food and
+unfits the stomach for its reception. At such times beer
+has an excellent effect, both in affording some present refreshment
+and in preparing the system for more substantial
+food—and no such advantage can be found in the use of
+water, and nothing like an equivalent in that of ardent
+spirits. Richmond Sheen, an eminent authority, says:
+“That beer is nutritive and salubrious cannot be doubted.
+It proves a refreshing drink and an agreeable and valuable
+stimulus and support to those who have to undergo much
+bodily fatigue.”</p>
+
+<p>In cases of mental depression too, a glass of beer has
+often the same good effect as food after physical exhaustion.
+On this point Professor T. K. Chambers of New York very
+justly says: “It is certain that the habitual use of some stimulant,
+particularly beer, bestows on a large class the nervous
+energy necessary to digest food enough to exist upon
+and get through other vital functions. By this stimulus
+they are enabled to be useful members of society instead of
+the mere drones they must become during the rest of their
+existence under a total abstinence regime.”</p>
+
+<p>The records of disease and the bills of mortality in beer-drinking
+countries show longer lives and a less percentage
+of sickness than prevail where malt liquors are replaced by
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_87">[87]</span>other beverages.<a id="FNanchor_19" href="#Footnote_19" class="fnanchor">[19]</a> Not only is this true but the social condition
+of the people is better in countries where beer is recognized
+and encouraged by government, and a very striking
+illustration of this truth may be found through a comparison
+of the state of Maine and the kingdom of Bavaria. Bavaria
+is the most noted beer-drinking country on the globe
+and Maine is distinctively known as the prohibitory state.
+The forms of government are radically different and an
+American naturally holds that the republican is superior to
+the monarchical, <i>i. e.</i>, tends to promote the greater happiness
+of the individual. Let us see what can be learned about
+the matter, and first as to the terms of the comparison.</p>
+
+<div class="footnotes"><div class="footnote">
+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_19" href="#FNanchor_19" class="label">[19]</a> The Germans are the healthiest class of New Yorkers. Statistics show
+that the mortality among them is nearly 38 per cent. less than that of other
+citizens, while their increase by births is larger, and the same is found to be
+generally true of Germans all over this continent.</p>
+
+</div>
+</div>
+<p>The advantages and disadvantages in the struggle for
+existence are about equal in amount though naturally different
+in character. In Bavaria, society is old, habits
+strong, the fetters of trade not easily broken, untilled
+land scarce and the population dense. In Maine there is
+abundance of new land, much timber yet unconsumed, no
+limits on a choice of occupation, a new society and a sparse
+population. The state has a climate that stimulates to industry
+and the men pride themselves on their strength and
+energy. In Bavaria few receive aid from the state or the
+municipality; while in Maine, the records in this respect
+are frightful. Maine has in addition all the advantages
+that can be obtained by means of the most stringent prohibitory
+law ever devised, a law that, according to its advocates,
+must tend to secure peace, prosperity and happiness.
+Which of these countries should have most paupers, men
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_88">[88]</span>who are unable to find their own living and are supported
+at the cost of the state? As a matter of fact the number
+in Bavaria is very small while the record of Maine is bad
+not merely in comparison with the old monarchy but as set
+against that of the United States at large. The last census
+shows one pauper to every 171.65 of the population of
+Maine, while the pauper rate of the whole country was
+only one in 502.47.</p>
+
+<p>Again, the condition of Bavaria is such as favors emigration
+to a large extent, yet her population, in spite of it, increased
+4.5 per cent. during the last census decade while
+that of Maine decreased .02 <i>per cent.</i> during the same time,
+and <em>Maine was the only state in the Union where a decrease
+occurred</em>. We have seen that in the original comparison
+the <em>pros</em> and <em>cons</em> were pretty equally balanced. The difference
+is that Bavaria encourages the use of beer and
+Maine prohibits it. It must not, however, be supposed that
+the prohibitory law suppresses the sale of spirituous drinks.
+On this point abundant evidence will be shortly presented,
+and we need only say here that we know on the best authority
+that “no one need go without his whisky in Maine,
+though a glass of beer is not to be had for love or money.”
+The reason is obvious, beer is bulky and difficult of concealment
+while spirits can be easily hidden. In this connection
+notice that in the United States between 1860 and
+1870 the production of beer rose from something more than
+a million barrels to over eight million and that during the
+same time the pauper rate decreased from one in 379.09 to
+one in 502.47, a striking and very significant fact which
+may well be commended to the attention of our legislators
+and others interested in the connection between the proverbial
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_89">[89]</span>thrift of the German emigrant here and his indulgence
+in beer. The intellectual advance of the beer-drinking
+countries is so notorious as to need no special comment
+here.</p>
+
+<p>At present a recapitulation of some characteristic national
+habits in the matter of drinking, things well known to
+every one who has given the subject attention, will serve
+both as a further illustration of the superiority of beer over
+other beverages and as a comment on what has been previously
+said of the modern history of beer-drinking in the
+more important civilized countries of the world.</p>
+
+<p>The Scotchman drinks his “mountain dew,” a strong
+whisky containing over 54 per cent. of alcohol,—and Scotland
+has long been noted for intemperance. The Russian
+grows sullen and sluggish over his vadka or kwass,
+containing 52.68 <em>per cent.</em> of alcohol, and drunkenness and
+crime follow as natural results. The volatile Italians and
+Spaniards drink their mild wines as freely as their mothers’
+milk and do not disgrace themselves or become a nuisance
+to others by beastly intoxication. Frenchmen were formerly
+to be placed in the same category but recent debates
+in the French Academy of medicine have developed the
+fact that in parts of France and in some Swiss cantons
+the powerful and seductive influence of brandy, absinthe
+and schnapps has diminished the consumption of wine and
+gone far to undermine the health and morals of the people.
+The excitable Irishman drinks eagerly and rapidly his
+strong whisky which contains more than 57 per cent. of
+pure alcohol and rouses all his combative qualities so that
+merry-making is almost sure to end in a fight, and trials of
+strength or skill which begin in good feeling end with
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_90">[90]</span>broken heads and general tumult. The more sedate German
+drinks slowly, with much smoke and animated conversation,
+a beer which has only about four <em>per cent.</em> of alcohol.
+He imbibes great quantities and may become merry or dull
+according to the length of his potations, but he rarely if
+ever fights. The Englishman drinks much in a solid matter-of-fact
+way, but is learning to substitute beer for a
+great part of the stronger liquor he formerly consumed and
+becoming temperate in the same ratio. The American Republic,
+though chiefly British in its origin and therefore inheriting
+a taste for strong liquors, has become by immigration
+truly cosmopolitan, and is on the high road to temperance
+secured by a general use of fermented drinks. One
+great obstacle in the way is the wonderful variety of “fancy
+drinks,” whose names catch the ear as surely as their
+ingredients tickle the palate. They entice young and old,
+seduce by their novelty or piquancy and carry many thousands
+on the straight road to drunkenness and its accompanying
+moral and physical wreck. The practice of “treating”
+is also very common and very injurious. It leads to a hasty
+and immoderate consumption that has little or no regard to
+the requirements of the individual and has by some been
+considered the real foundation stone of a habit of intemperance.
+The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in a recent address
+before the Business Men’s Society of Brooklyn, favored
+“moderation in drinking and total abstinence from treating.”
+He said he never drank beer until he was sixty
+years old, after which time he became fond of it, and evidently
+believed that its use is a means to temperance for
+the people. There are many who might say nearly the
+same thing. We are learning to appreciate malt drinks and
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_91">[91]</span>the tendency is unmistakable, although it must be admitted
+that, on the whole, the disposition of the people is, as yet,
+more nearly like that of the Celt than the Teuton.</p>
+
+<p>Mr. W. A. Lawrence of Waterville, N. Y., in a paper
+chiefly devoted to facts respecting the growth of hops, thus
+speaks of the general question—beer <em>versus</em> whisky: “The
+fact is that the quality of beer, as a light and refreshing
+drink, has been wonderfully improved within the past few
+years. A bottle of beer to-day has but about half the
+strength of the beer of twenty years ago, and half the
+strength of ordinary wine and cider. The beer of to-day is
+just what the American people want—a cool, mildly refreshing,
+stimulating and palatable drink. Wine is too expensive
+for a common drink. Cider is too sour and strong.
+Whisky is not a drink at all but a drug, and you have to
+take water after it as you do after taking other drugs, and
+it ought to be kept in a drug-store for sale and nowhere
+else. But beer is not only agreeable and refreshing and
+cheap, but it is mild, and generally peaceful and good-humored
+in its effects. It is true a man can get drunk on
+it, but a man won’t. A hog may, but most beer-drinkers
+are not hogs, but hard-working men who know what they
+want and what fills the bill, and if they wanted to get
+drunk they would drink whisky and get a good deal bigger
+drunk at less expense and in half the time.</p>
+
+<p>“The great majority of the beer-drinkers in America are
+these same hard-working men and women, who also drink
+beer with their food as we all do our tea and coffee. But
+in addition to these, who are mostly our German citizens,
+there are thousands of men, old Americans, who have
+learned to love beer, who will drink it as long as they live
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_92">[92]</span>and will live the longer for drinking it. It is among the
+native Americans that the demand for beer and hops is increasing.
+The Germans always did drink for fifteen generations
+back, as much as they could hold, and in spite of
+all the theories of our anti-beer, total abstinence friends,
+the Germans in Germany and in this country seem to be
+still above ground; and so far as this country is concerned,
+as myself, an American citizen, and the son of American
+ancestry for five generations back, I wish to God we could
+trade off about two millions of native American whisky-drinkers
+now in the “solid South,” for two millions of
+hard-working Germans who would do their own work, and
+drink their own beer, and keep clear of fights and strikes
+and riots and greenback conventions, as they keep clear
+of them here in the North to-day.</p>
+
+<p>“Now everybody knows that whisky is full of the devil
+and that beer is full of humor and good fellowship; and it
+can hardly fail to rejoice the heart of every good hop-grower
+to find that in raising hops for beer he is incidentally
+engaged in the great “temperance movement” of leading
+men away from bad whisky to good beer. I know this
+is not what the professional temperance lecturers say, but
+what do I care what they say? A temperance lecturer is
+generally a retired whisky drinker and can see snakes in
+everything, including beer. Or he is a clergyman and has
+acquired the habit of talking with no one to contradict him
+and hence is careless of his facts. Or he is a paid professional,
+and knows that if war is made on whisky alone,
+whisky would soon be driven to the drug-store and no
+more temperance lecturers needed or paid for. I do not
+hesitate to affirm that I know more about beer by experience
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_93">[93]</span>and contact and study than the whole crowd of temperance
+lecturers put together. They ‘mean well’ to be
+sure; and so do I. The difference between us lies in the
+fact that they don’t know what they are talking about, and
+I do, because I am personally familiar with something like
+a thousand breweries in the United States and have peculiar
+advantages for information.</p>
+
+<p>“And I am sick and tired of sitting in churches built by
+hops, whose clergymen’s salaries are paid by hops, whose
+congregations live by hops, and that is by beer at first or
+second hand, and there listening to wholesale denunciations
+of beer, and even to cold-blooded, cold-water propositions to
+pass a general United States law making it illegal to manufacture
+beer anywhere in the country. One hop-grower
+who paid out over two thousand dollars to the poor women
+and children of one village last fall for picking hops, got
+up and left a church where some of this anti-beer nonsense
+was being aired, but as a general thing a man can talk
+against beer in a hop church with as little restraint as a
+missionary to Greenland feels in preaching hell-fire to his
+shivering congregation. The brewer is far away, and the
+connection between hops and beer is kept carefully out of
+sight. But to a carnal mind like mine it does seem a
+mean trick for a hop-grower to send out a hop-dealer with
+a flag of truce to the brewers and sell him hops in a
+friendly way, and meanwhile the hop-grower is lying in
+ambush behind a stack of hop-poles, ready as soon as his
+hops are sold to blaze away at the brewer with a prohibition
+bullet or ballot. I believe there are very few hop-growers
+who are capable of such meanness as this, but I do
+believe there are a great many who do not realize the close
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_94">[94]</span>connection between hops and beer, and to these I say respectfully,
+as I did two years ago in a prominent hop
+paper, ‘If you believe beer is a bad thing, plow up your
+hop-yards and put in corn and potatoes. It is true that
+somebody may turn the corn and potatoes into whisky, but
+that is not your fault. Corn and potatoes must be had for
+food. But there is no such excuse as this in the case of
+hops. The hops are raised on purpose for beer. Not one
+bale in a hundred is used for yeast or medicine. Therefore
+you are the “outside man” of the brewery, and if beer is a
+fraud you are a party to a fraud, and you are not an honest
+man. We believe that the making of beer is an honest and
+praiseworthy occupation, no better and no worse than any
+other branch of manufacturing goods that are wanted
+either for use or pleasure.’</p>
+
+<p>“When I say we, I mean the men who believe in a radical
+distinction between fermented liquors and distilled.
+Such men as Rev. Dr. Howard Crosby, and Dr. William A.
+Hammond, formerly medical director of the United States
+army, and Dr. Willard Parker, the leading practicing physician
+of New York, and a most earnest Christian man. Dr.
+Parker says in the <cite>Christian Union</cite>: ‘Fermented liquor is
+the work of God; distilled liquor is the work of man or the
+devil or both.’ ‘It is the still that does the harm. It is
+the still that takes the alcohol out of its proper place in a
+liquid where it is not ordinarily found in a larger proportion
+than six or seven per cent., and where it rarely intoxicates,
+and never if taken in moderate quantities, and concentrates
+it in a substance that is a deadly poison. Take
+away the still and we should have peace and plenty on
+earth. We could then leave the vinous liquors alone. I
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_95">[95]</span>would compromise with all my heart on that ground, and I
+would go to work and preach just as old Solomon did:
+Don’t use too much.’ If with such men as Crosby and
+Hammond and Parker you believe beer should be distinguished
+from whisky, then go and raise your hops; pick
+them clean and get clean money. Take your glass of beer
+like an honest man when you feel it will do you good.
+Let it alone like an honest man when you think it will do
+you harm, just as you would a cup of coffee when you were
+bilious. Sign no pledges, nor encourage your children to
+sign them, except those against distilled liquors. Encourage
+no temperance movement that does not move in the
+right direction—against whisky and in favor of beer as a
+temperance drink; a drink that is killing out whisky faster
+than whisky killed Ireland, a drink that will build up the
+American constitution as it has built up the German.”</p>

+Prof. A. B. Prescott, Dr. Andrew Ure, William Ripley
+Nichols, professor at the Technological Institute of Massachusetts,
+and other chemists of well known reputation.</p>

+<p>In this table the term extract includes all the substances
+left when the alcohol and water are removed by evaporation.</p>
+
+<p>In view of the figures above given and of the fact that
+the lighter beers form the bulk of the malt liquor consumed
+in the country, we are safe in assuming an average alcoholic
+strength of not more than 5½ per cent. for the total
+product. This product we have already seen to be 9,473,361
+barrels, which, on the basis just assumed, yields 521,034
+barrels or 16,673,088 gallons of alcohol. Now according
+to statistics from the department at Washington the
+consumption of native spirits was in 1878 over 70,000,000
+gallons containing about 37,000,000 gallons of alcohol.
+The cost of the native and foreign ardent spirits, wines and
+liquors used in one year reaches $500,000,000, and it is
+among the drinkers of spirits that we find most of the pauperism
+and crime of the country. Those who drink beer
+use something that as far as alcohol is concerned is more
+expensive than distilled liquors and yet spend less than
+$120,000,000, as against the $500,000,000 above mentioned.
+It should be noticed that while rum, gin, brandy,
+whisky, etc., contain over 50 per cent. of alcohol, ales
+never reach nine per cent., and lager beer seldom reaches
+six per cent. and is often below four.</p>
+
+<p>An examination of these tables taken in connection with
+the other facts mentioned should be sufficient to give a
+general idea of the nature and extent of the claims to be
+made in favor of beer as a common beverage. Others will
+come to light in the course of our discussion, and particularly
+in the chapter entitled, “What Authorities Say,” in
+which are embodied the conclusions of some of the most
+noted scientific investigators of our time.</p>

+</div>
+
+
+<p>Thus far we have been chiefly occupied with the sanitary
+and social advantages that attend the general use of beer
+in a community, but there is another phase of the question
+that is worth careful attention. Barley and hops are the
+foundation of beer and we propose to show in this chapter
+some of the benefits that attend their cultivation for brewing
+purposes and which are by no means confined to the
+cash price received from the brewer. They can be raised
+to good advantage when there is no such home consumption,
+but the real possibilities of these crops are only attained
+when there are breweries near at hand. How this
+is true will be understood after an examination of the following
+statistics.</p>
+
+<p>The cultivation of hops is in itself a more important
+industry than is generally supposed, but for the purpose of
+this chapter it is of so much less consequence than that of
+barley that it may be dismissed in very few words. A few
+years ago our own production was not sufficient to supply
+the brewers, and in 1872 we paid in round numbers
+$785,525.00 to foreign growers. The next year the import
+was $1,310,627.00 and in 1874 reached $1,303,686.00.
+Since that time the tide has turned and each of the past
+four years has shown an export to a considerable amount,
+the figures taken in the order of the years being as follows:
+1875, $1,286,500.00; 1876, $1,348,521.00; 1877, $2,305,355.00;
+1878, $2,152,873.00. The yearly consumption in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_102">[102]</span>this country is about 30,000,000 pounds, which after having
+served their purpose in the brewery, furnish an excellent
+manure, especially for potatoes.</p>
+
+<p>According to the last report of the United States Commissioner
+of Agriculture, there were in 1877, no less than
+1,614,654 acres under cultivation with barley, and the
+product was 34,441,400 bushels at an average value of 70
+cents a bushel, making a total value of $24,028,644.00 for
+the crop. The average yield to the acre was 21.3 bushels,
+and the average value to the acre $14.91, as against $10.72
+for hay, $9.54 for corn, $9.25 for oats, $8.87 for rye and
+$15.08 for wheat. Only three crops, potatoes, tobacco and
+wheat yielded a higher value to the acre, and only six,
+wheat, corn, potatoes, oats, hay and cotton had a greater
+total value. Again, the northern latitudes produce the
+best barley and accordingly we find that in the six Eastern
+States, the average value to the bushel was a little over 78
+cents. In these states the number of acres under cultivation
+was only 51,065, the product 986,900 bushels, the
+average value to the acre $15.11, being more than that of
+any other crop except potatoes. Notwithstanding all this,
+we do not even now raise enough for home consumption.
+The import of barley in 1877 was no less than 10,285,957
+bushels at a value of $7,887,886.00 on which a duty of 20
+cents per bushel was paid by the consumer, in addition to
+charges for freight and commission, all of which could and
+should have been saved to our people. Nearly eight million
+dollars is too large a sum to neglect when it lies at our very
+hand.</p>

+<p>We have said that high latitudes are favorable to barley.
+It is chiefly grown in the northern tier of states and in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_103">[103]</span>Canada, and a state like Maine for instance would find immense
+advantage in an enlarged production of this crop
+even under existing conditions. But suppose the restriction
+on brewing were removed, that instead of being
+crushed out by local law it were encouraged and fostered.
+It is not easy to compute the material assistance such a
+course would be to the farming community and the state
+at large, and yet the direct gain would be small in comparison
+with the incidental advantages. For the proper illustration
+of this point we must ask the reader to follow and
+keep in mind two separate series of facts which we are
+about to present. The first statistical and relating to the
+“refuse” of brewing establishments, and the second
+general.</p>
+
+<p>The breweries of the United States use annually about
+30,000,000 bushels of malt, which yields, according to A.
+Schwarz of New York, 2½ per cent. or 750,000 bushels of
+“sprouts.” Now in estimating the comparative value of
+different kinds of fodder according to the albumen contained
+it is usual to take hay as the basis of comparison.
+Air-dried meadow hay contains 7 per cent. of albumen.
+“Sprouts” contain from 24 to 30 per cent., so that a hundred
+bushels of sprouts, weighing 1,200 pounds, are equal
+in value to 4,628 pounds of hay, and the annual product of
+sprouts as above stated to 34,710,000 pounds of hay. This
+same 30,000,000 bushels of malt yields at least 35,000,000
+bushels of “grains,” having a weight of 1,520,000,000
+pounds, and from 4 to 5 per cent. of albumen. Taking 4½
+per cent. as the average, 100 pounds of grains have the
+same nutritive value as 64 pounds of hay and the value of
+the product reaches that of 973,241,000 pounds of hay. It
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_104">[104]</span>is a proved fact that cattle fed on grains give better milk
+than when any other fodder is used and this fact is specially
+appreciated in New York and New Jersey, where the
+grains and sprouts are largely used with most excellent results.
+These products must by no means be confounded
+with the “slops” from distilleries, which is utterly different
+in character—<em>as indeed every product of the still seems
+to be tainted with some portion of the curse that has always
+clung to spirituous liquors</em>.</p>
+
+<p>The second and general consideration is this: The past
+agricultural history of New England shows a succession of
+specialties, each running its course until the advent of
+another which existing circumstances made more profitable.
+The first was grain (except barley), then came
+wool, and then potatoes, while the last and most promising
+is dairy farming. It is yet in its infancy but it is already
+important. One thing is sure, that farming on the old-fashioned
+plan has seen its day in New England. The
+natural advantages of the West enable it to raise and deliver
+many crops cheaper than they can be grown in the
+older part of the country, and under the influence of this
+competition Eastern farmers have grown poorer and
+poorer unless they have taken up a specialty or possessed
+some unusual natural advantages. We submit that the
+combination of dairy farming with the growth of barley
+will, even under the existing laws, prove very remunerative.
+The facts already adduced point directly to this conclusion.
+The figures show that barley is a profitable crop
+and that northern New England is well adapted to its
+growth. Moreover it thrives on a comparatively poor soil
+while most of the other natural products that rank high in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_105">[105]</span>value involve a large expense for manure, and in many
+cases a great deal of hand labor. Dairy farms are known to
+pay well. What then will be the result of combining the
+two industries as above indicated on terms favorable to
+both? But this can only be successfully done by the establishment
+of breweries, and sooner or later the people will
+understand all these facts and act accordingly. <em>Remove the
+laws that now make brewing impossible, and a new industry
+will spring up as if by magic</em>—we might well say three new
+industries—for barley culture and dairies will grow to keep
+pace with the demands and the grants of brewing. For it
+must be remembered that brewing is not like some other
+forms of manufacture. What it takes with one hand it gives
+with the other. It receives the farmer’s grain and pays
+him a good price; it gives him valuable fodder and manure
+for a sum that is small in proportion to the benefit conferred.
+It helps put in motion the wheels of another separate
+business, the manufacture of cheese and butter, and
+it is again the agricultural community who profit by the
+development.</p>
+
+<p> <i>Living in an age of progress we must recognize the fact
+and adapt ourselves to it or we shall inevitably fall behind,
+and we do not believe that the men of New England will long
+close their eyes to the advantages offered by such a course as
+has been indicated. The change must come, and sooner or
+later, a part of the change must be the resolute and successful
+demand for a repeal of the laws that choke industry. Maine
+men in especial have everything to gain. Their business is
+stagnant, their population decreasing, poverty staring them
+in the face and enforced idleness eating like a canker into
+their very nature. They have it in their power to change all
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_106">[106]</span>this, to become rich, revive trade, make the state famous for
+progressive energy, and banish the intemperance that now
+accompanies and aggravates all their other ills and is accompanied
+by the other corrupting evils that, as experience shows,
+always spring up in the shadow of a prohibitory law.</i> The
+matter well deserves more space than we can give, but we
+have presented the leading facts and must leave them for
+the examination and mature reflection of all who are interested.
+Great things have been expected of beet-root culture
+in Maine and other states, and we cannot close this
+chapter without a word in reference to this topic. The
+Commissioner of Agriculture, in the prefatory remarks to
+his last Report, says: “The effort to produce a sugar beet,
+and the belief and expectation of many that the beet
+would be made to yield in this country as in Germany and
+France, of good quality, in sufficient abundance, and at a
+sufficiently low cost, to make it pay has not been realized—although
+no pains and money have been spared to insure
+success.” The difficulty is that the sugar beet will not
+thrive on poor or exhausted soil, unless it is heavily manured.
+Such has been the constant experience in those
+places where the experiment has received most attention,
+ <i>viz.</i>, Chatsworth, Ill., Sauk county, Wis., and some parts
+of the state of Maine.<a id="FNanchor_20" href="#Footnote_20" class="fnanchor">[20]</a> New England is unfit for beet-root
+culture, partly by nature and partly by the exhaustion of
+the soil, while on the other hand it is as we have said eminently
+adapted to barley. Even had the expectations of
+the more reasonable part of the beet-growers of Maine been
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_107">[107]</span>realized, the material advantages to the people would not
+have compared with those to be attained by the encouragement
+of breweries, the growth of barley and hops and the
+establishment of dairies. All these things go together and
+stimulate other branches of industry. There will be more
+demand for other crops, particularly hay and oats, and for
+lumber for vats, barrels, tubs and building purposes. A
+busy temperate people must thrive <em>and we have shown what
+will make them busy and temperate</em>.</p>
+
+<div class="footnotes"><div class="footnote">
+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_20" href="#FNanchor_20" class="label">[20]</a> The state of Maine is assisting the experiment with beet-root by granting
+a premium of one cent a pound on all beet-root sugar produced in the state,
+but even with this help the industry has failed to establish itself to any considerable
+extent.</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">PROHIBITORY LAWS AND THEIR EFFECTS.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>We have now reached a point at which we may properly
+recur to a topic already suggested and inquire a little more
+carefully into the actual working of the prohibitory laws.
+On this head we shall confine ourselves chiefly to the testimony
+of men who have made the matter a thorough study,
+and that not at a distance, but in the very midst of the operation
+of such laws, and as Maine is the state which led
+the way in the prohibitory movement and has since followed
+that course with most persistency, it is proper that it
+should occupy most of our attention during the inquiry.</p>
+
+<p>Not long ago a number of the most prominent men of
+the state, men of different political parties, wholly above
+reproach, and especially fitted by official position or private
+observation to form a just opinion in the premises, became
+so well convinced of the evils of the present system, and its
+detrimental effect on the people, as to unite in an effort for
+its amendment. Their movement took form in the presentation
+by Mr. Fox of Portland, a lawyer of high reputation
+and a member of the Legislature, of the following
+proposed Act:</p>
+
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p class="center">
+“<i>State of Maine, 1879.</i><br>
+</p>
+
+<p class="hang1">
+“An Act in relation to Cider, Native Wines, Ale, Porter, Lager
+Beer and Malt Liquors.</p>
+
+<p>“Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in
+Legislature assembled, as follows:</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_109">[109]</span></p>
+<p>“Cider, Native Wine, Ale, Porter, Lager Beer and other Malt
+Liquors, when pure and unadulterated, shall not be considered
+intoxicating liquors within the meaning of the laws of this
+State.”</p>
+</div>
+
+<p>The bill was referred to the Committee on Temperance
+and able arguments in its favor were made by Gen. Gorham,
+L. Boynton, Hon. Nathan Webb and C. G. Yeaton,
+all men highly respected by the people of the state, of the
+strictest integrity, and with no inducement to make other
+than an impartial statement. Three gentlemen who have
+successively held the office of county attorney of Cumberland
+county for about fifteen years past and who are all
+Republicans, have unanimously testified against the present
+prohibition law. They are Gen. Chas. T. Matlock, C.
+F. Libby, Esq., and Nathan Webb. Similar views are
+held by such men as Gen. W. S. Tilton of Logan Springs,
+Judge Goddard, postmaster of Portland, M. P. Frank of
+Portland, Speaker of the House, Dr. Edw. Dana and many
+other influential citizens. No party, however, was willing
+to go to the people on this issue and the bill failed to pass,
+although there is good reason to hope that when the next
+attempt is made some who have previously upheld the
+present law will have learned to take a different view.
+Much new light is constantly thrown on the influence of
+the present statute, and can hardly fail to produce an adequate
+effect. A minority report of the committee was presented
+and contains so much of interest and importance
+that we cannot do better than to reproduce it in these
+pages. Its statements are those of men who understand
+the subject of which they treat and are worth a careful
+reading.</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_110">[110]</span></p>
+
+<h3>REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON TEMPERANCE, OF THE
+FIFTY-EIGHTH LEGISLATURE OF MAINE, 1879.</h3>
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p>“The Committee on Temperance have listened to the
+able and exhaustive arguments presented on both sides of
+the matter in hearing, and the minority of said committee
+respectfully present their views in dissent from the report
+of the majority. The law regulating the sale of intoxicating
+liquors, commonly known as the prohibitory liquor law has
+had a trial of more than a quarter of a century. Its severity
+has no parallel in the laws of any other civilized country.
+Although enforced with all the power of the state, court
+records show that the number of prosecutions and convictions
+is increasing, at great expense to the tax payers.
+Country towns pay their share for the enforcement of this
+law in cities without corresponding benefit to themselves.
+The cost of its execution is a burden on an over-taxed
+people. A detailed statement which is hereto annexed
+shows the cost for officers to enforce the law.”</p>
+
+<p>The details are here omitted but “the total reaches the
+enormous amount of $220,000. The records of the Insane
+Hospital show a gradual increase of patients caused by excessive
+use of intoxicating liquors. At the present time
+that institution has nearly double the number of inmates
+from that cause alone, which it had when the present prohibitory
+law was enacted. While the law, with singular
+inconsistency, does not recognize pure and beneficial kinds
+of intoxicating liquors as property when intended for sale
+by other than city or town agencies, and makes no distinction
+between the sale of adulterated liquors and pure
+liquors, it authorizes their indiscriminate sale in numerous
+city and town agencies. Liquor-drinking is not done
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_111">[111]</span>openly to so great an extent but the consumption is as
+large. It is notorious that quantities of strong liquors have
+for years been transported into the state from the Provinces,
+and especially from Massachusetts, which has
+drained us of millions of dollars which might have been
+kept at home under liberal laws. Liquor runners from
+New York and Boston penetrate every nook and corner of
+our state to rob our people and eat out their substance.
+Liquors are also imported in bond, and under the protection
+of the Federal Government they cannot be seized in bulk.
+They are consumed in families and in club-rooms which have
+been organized in large towns and cities, under that most
+dangerous guise of social drinking. The liquor agencies
+authorized by law have vended in some years more than a
+hundred thousand dollars worth of liquors for medicinal,
+mechanical and manufacturing purposes only, as is supposed.
+We consider these liquor agencies as leeches upon
+the people. The question is whether a law, the severity of
+which is without example, having failed to accomplish the
+ends for which it was designed, according to experience
+and the testimony of officials serving under it, who with
+singular unanimity give their verdict against it, ought to be
+so amended that cider, native wines, ale, porter and particularly
+lager beer, shall not be considered within the
+meaning of the statute.</p>
+
+<p>“History shows that every nation has its peculiar stimulants
+in stronger or milder forms. Men crave stimulant.
+It is an undeniable fact, both in the light of history and experience,
+that in countries like Germany, France, etc.,
+whose climate is not unlike ours, drunkenness is known
+scarcely more than the strong liquors which cause it.
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_112">[112]</span>Cheap light wines and nutritious malt beverages supersede
+strong drink. Everybody uses them at his meals and as a
+common beverage. The people of those countries are
+among the healthiest, happiest, most prosperous and temperate
+on the face of the globe. We appeal to the wisdom
+of this Legislature and the consideration of the people
+whether it would not promote the cause of temperance and
+the material welfare of our state to give the amendment
+proposed a fair trial. It would tend to promote harmony
+by removing an irritating and festering sore from our politics.
+Good citizens without distinctions of party view
+with alarm the inroads that this law in its operation is
+working upon our social and material interest, driving
+away business, depreciating real estate, shackling enterprise,
+cheating labor, increasing taxes, educating intolerance
+and hypocrisy, influencing elections and encouraging
+bribery and perjury and the clandestine compounding, sale
+and use of poisonous liquors.”</p>

+<p>This is the statement of men whose characters stand so

+nothing to be objected to their statement of fact.</p>
+
+<p>Again, Governor Garcelon is not a man to make hasty
+or unfounded statements in an important matter and he
+has been for many years an eminent physician of large
+practice and a close observer of the habits of the people.
+But read this summary of an address delivered by him before
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_113">[113]</span>the Maine temperance convention: “He called attention
+to various kinds of intemperance, which have generally
+escaped the notice of reformers in that state. He
+spoke of the use of tobacco as an increasing evil, especially
+among the young, and said that in addition to chewing and
+smoking, snuff-dipping was becoming prevalent, a fact of
+which many are ignorant and which excites surprise. The
+use of opiates, Governor Garcelon remarked, had increased
+to an alarming extent. Many a man, he said, had appeared
+upon the stand advocating temperance, who had in
+his pocket a bottle of laudanum or black drops, which pave
+the way to an early grave. The ladies carry chloroform
+and ether to moisten the handkerchief with which to allay
+nervous excitement. As a practicing physician and observer
+of human nature, he placed all these forms of intemperance
+in the same category with the intemperate use of
+spirituous liquors, all of which demand correction. Is the
+change from the intoxicating liquors to opium an improvement?
+Governor Garcelon has, undoubtedly, done the
+people a timely service by directing attention to this and
+other evils, and if followed up it will be found that the
+‘Maine Law’ has not been the grand instrument of reform
+which it is claimed to be.”</p>
+
+<p>At a convention held at Bangor, Me., July 1, 1879, a
+resolution in favor of local option was presented by Mr.
+Charles F. Swett, a considerable part of whose speech is
+here reproduced, as it deals in facts of great importance to
+the present discussion:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p>“In supporting this measure, I wish to distinctly define
+my position. I am a practical temperance man; a total
+abstainer. I have belonged, and do now belong, to every
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_114">[114]</span>temperance organization in the state of Maine, except the
+Reform Club. I have had much experience in endeavoring
+to ‘reclaim the fallen and save others from falling,’
+and I therefore claim to be as conversant with the practical
+workings of our prohibitory law as any man in this hall,
+and I declare, from my experience, that that law, so far as
+it contributes to lessening the evils of intemperance, is a
+complete failure, and a costly one to the people of this
+state. * * * In Cumberland county there are
+four deputy sheriffs, whose business it is to enforce the
+liquor law. These men get from $7,000 to $9,000 per
+year for their services. Of course they never reform a
+drunkard, but they can afford to contribute $3,000 a year
+towards the campaign fund—and they do—and the people
+furnish the money. Every liquor-seller thrown into jail for
+sixty days pays the high sheriff a profit of $1.50 per week.
+When there is an average of say fifty of these cases his
+profits will be $4,000 per year, from this source alone.
+The people furnish the money, and the sheriff ‘comes
+down handsomely’ for the campaign fund. True, there
+are no men reformed, but the party gets the ‘sinews of
+war.’ And so it is all over the state.</p>
+
+<p>“The cost of the execution of the prohibitory law is a
+burden upon our over-taxed people. The report of the
+temperance committee of our last Legislature showed that
+although the ‘law was enforced with all the power of the
+state,’ court records prove that the number of prosecutions
+is annually increasing, at great expense to the tax payers.
+From June 1, 1877, to June 1, 1878, the cost of enforcing
+the prohibitory law, in Cumberland county alone, reached
+$28,000. In the same ratio, applied to the population of
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_115">[115]</span>the whole state, the cost reaches the enormous sum of
+$220,000, annually. But we would not complain of the
+expenditure even of this vast sum if the results were, in
+any degree satisfactory. But they are not. The advocates
+of the Maine law make bold claims, but their claims
+are not substantiated by the facts. Outside of Maine, and
+even in the back towns of this state, remote from the cities,
+people are given to understand that liquor is not sold
+in Maine, and therefore there is less crime here than formerly.
+Neal Dow says, ‘We have little crime here
+because we have banished its cause.’ Let us look at the
+facts. In 1851, there were 87 convicts in the state prison.
+We had then a population of 584,000, while to-day it is
+probably 625,000. Last year’s state prison report shows
+the number of convicts to be 206, while 69 more were
+serving in jail work-shops. So the number of convicts has
+increased, <em>under the prohibitory law</em>, over threefold, while
+our population has remained comparatively the same. Does
+that speak well for prohibition? Now, take the city of
+Portland. In 1856, there were 650 arrests for drunkenness,
+in a population of 27,000. In 1876, twenty years
+later, with a population of about 30,000, there were 1800
+arrests for drunkenness, and in no year of the last eight
+has the list fallen below 1,200. And this under a vigorous
+enforcement of the prohibitory law. Does that speak well
+for prohibition? During last week, over 200 barrels of
+liquor were brought into Portland, by the various railroads
+and steamboats, <em>for home consumption</em>. Does that speak
+well for prohibition?</p>
+
+<p>“The secret drinking in club-rooms in Portland is threefold
+that which formerly took place at open bars, while the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_116">[116]</span>traffic outside has been driven into worse and worse hands
+every year, until it has, with a few exceptions, been taken
+away from respectable men, whose interest it would be to
+conduct it with some show of decency, and given into the
+undivided management and control of the low and criminal,
+so that while ‘the law is enforced with all the power of
+the state,’ the upper classes get drunk at the club-rooms,
+and the lower classes get drunk at the shops in the slums.
+Does that speak well for prohibition? The vilest liquors
+possible to make are manufactured for the market in this
+state, and even our state liquor agent could not, or did not,
+ <i>keep pure</i> liquors even for medicinal purposes.</p>
+
+<p>“Private club-rooms have multiplied in Portland, under
+the operation of the prohibitory law, (there being over 80
+in that city at the present time,) and our young men just
+starting out in life are exposed to all the dangers of the
+drunkard’s life, and no law can stop them. In these club-rooms,
+boys who would never go to saloons to get drunk,
+who would never learn to gamble were it not for their
+club-room temptations, who would, in short, grow up honest
+and respected citizens, are being ruined every day.
+This evil ought to be remedied by prompt and decisive
+action. Fathers who love their sons; mothers who pray
+for their boys; sisters who mourn over their disgraced
+brothers; wives who weep over the wreck of what
+were once good men and true husbands; citizens who
+care for the good name and prosperity of their communities,
+ought to labor to shut these accursed gates of hell!
+Let us commence the good work by striving to repeal
+the prohibitory law, which is a positive detriment to the
+cause of temperance, an incubus upon the mercantile
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_117">[117]</span>interests of Maine, and a curse to the young men of our
+cities.”</p>
+</div>
+<p>In Massachusetts we have very important testimony to
+the same effect, a part of which is very ably and carefully
+summarized in an article which we insert here, retaining
+for convenience a portion at the beginning which might
+equally well be placed under a different heading:</p>
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p>“The state Board of Health of Massachusetts, in the
+Tenth Annual Report, published in January, 1879, say, under
+the head of ‘Intemperance’: ‘A more severe public
+judgment of drunkenness, in recent times, has undoubtedly
+tended to very much decrease its prevalence; and it is
+generally believed that light German beer is used more
+and more each year, at least in our state, to the exclusion
+of stronger liquors—<i>a change which it is of course desirable
+to hasten by legislation, so far as that can be done, either by
+removal of restrictions on the sale of mild liquors, and heavily
+taxing the stronger spirits, or by any other just and proper
+means</i>.’ This is the reiterated public expression of men to
+whom the state of Massachusetts has committed the general
+care for the health of her people. For the former
+public utterance of this opinion the chairman of the Board,
+for years past, has been most bitterly assailed by prohibitionists;
+but, undaunted by these intemperate and abusive
+attacks, the state Board of Health confirm the statement of
+their honest conviction by repeating the same, and embodying
+it in an important public document.</p>
+
+<p>“In harmony with this public expression of opinion by
+the state Board of Health, appears the action of the Committee
+on License of the Board of Aldermen of the city of
+Boston. In their report of September, 1878, to the City
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_118">[118]</span>Council, this committee say: ‘It may be objected that the
+committee have been too liberal in their recommendations
+of the issue of licenses, but their experience has convinced
+them that the “lunch rooms,” established chiefly
+for the sale of lager beer and edible refreshments, ought to
+be regarded as victualing saloons, even if facilities are not
+maintained for regular meals, and no cooking is done on
+the premises. The committee feel satisfied that the consumption
+of lager beer, now so general, tends, in fact, to
+exclude from sale and use more ardent spirits, and thereby
+diminishes crime and pauperism. It is well known that in
+the old countries, where beer and light wines are accessible,
+without restraint, at a small expense, and are freely used
+by all classes of people, cases of intoxication are very rare.
+The committee are confident that drunkenness, and consequently
+pauperism and crime, will be diminished in this
+state, if no restrictions were placed on the sale of lager
+beer, for it then could be provided at such a low price as
+to effectually supersede the use of strong liquors. They
+therefore submit for the consideration of the City Council
+the following order:</p>
+
+<p>“‘<i>Ordered</i>, That his Honor the Mayor be requested to
+petition the next Legislature for such amendment of <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: chaptar" id="chaptar">chapter</ins>
+99 of the statutes of 1875 as will allow the sale of cider
+and lager beer without any license being required therefor.’</p>
+
+<p>“It must be admitted, that in the state of Massachusetts,
+the liquor question has been as fully discussed, and the
+various legal expedients connected therewith have had as
+fair and full a trial as in any other state in the Union. It
+may therefore be claimed, without presumption, that to the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_119">[119]</span>results there attained, and the opinions there formed, when
+coming from official and authentic sources, the careful consideration
+of other state governments should be given.
+Acting from this view, we draw the attention of the reader
+to a very instructive report of the results of an investigation
+relative to drunkenness and liquor selling under prohibition
+and license legislation contained in the Tenth
+Annual Report of the Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics of
+Labor, issued as a public document in January, 1879. This
+investigation was undertaken at the special request of Governor
+Rice, whose object was to place on record a statement,
+as a basis for an intelligent consideration of the
+question, of as reliable a character as could be secured by
+impartial statistics. These statistics are drawn from official
+sources, and, as far as the figures are concerned, are
+thoroughly reliable.</p>
+
+<p>“The years 1874 and 1877 were selected for comparison,
+because 1874 represented the last full year under the operation
+of the prohibitory law, and 1877 the last full year
+under the license law. The advantages resulting from this
+selection of years, if any, are on the side of the prohibitory

+These circulars solicited information regarding the

+<p>“It will thus be seen that the number of arrests for
+drunkenness under the operation of the license law, during
+the year 1877, as compared to the prohibitory year 1874,
+shows a decrease of fully twenty-five per cent. In the
+number of convictions for drunkenness the difference in
+favor of the license year is at the same rate. The number
+of places where liquor was <em>illegally</em> sold under the prohibitory
+law of 1874, was larger by 336 than the number of
+places <em>licensed</em> in 1877. It is evident from these returns
+that the prohibitory law has failed to prohibit, or even to
+regulate, the sale of liquor, while it is equally apparent
+that the license law, as a legislative measure, not only regulates
+the sale of liquor, but decreases drunkenness.</p>
+
+<p>“A law, to be effective, must have the support of the
+people; the prohibitory law will never be thus supported,
+as common sense will teach that it is neither just nor judicious,
+to make somebody else than the drunkard himself
+responsible for his failing; and is not just this the questionable
+theory upon which prohibition is based?</p>
+
+<p>“The prohibitionists condemn the use of alcoholic beverages
+of every kind, as the prolific source of sin and vice.
+Nothing less than total abstinence finds favor with them.
+To them, the terms use and abuse have no distinctive
+meaning, and their curse falls upon brewery and distillery
+alike. It must be admitted that as long as alcoholic stimulants
+are used, intemperance will exist, and that the evil
+of drunkenness will only disappear with their total suppression.
+In view of the actual state of social habits, and
+the position which alcoholic beverages hold in civilized life,
+as now constituted, no sane person will believe such a total
+suppression possible. There are no means by which a
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_122">[122]</span>habit, transmitted from generation to generation, and forming
+so important an element in the development of the civilization
+of the human race, can be uprooted. Alcoholic
+stimulants once invented are never again abandoned, and
+seem to be destined to co-exist with man. The deplorable
+vice of drunkenness has always accompanied their use,
+and all attempts of rulers and philanthropists, the severest
+penalties and the sincerest compassion, have alike failed to
+suppress the evil. But it does not follow that, because the
+temptation of excessive use is too strong for some to be resisted,
+the great mass of people, who can and do use these
+beverages in moderation, should be made responsible for
+the weakness of the few. Nor does it follow that the intensity
+of the temptation is to be regarded as an excuse for
+the drunkard. Excess in the gratification of a desire, however
+natural, to the injury of others, is to be condemned
+morally and legally. Many actions of man, which the
+moral and legal code of society brands as a crime, and punishes
+as such, are the result of an inordinate gratification of
+instinctive desires implanted by nature, upon the proper
+indulgence of which the very propagation and the happiness
+of the human race depends, as for example, the instinct
+of self-preservation, of procreation and of acquisition.
+The more civilization advances, the more moral and intellectual
+discernment governs natural impulse, the less excess
+in the use of alcoholic stimulants the world will see.
+The vice of intemperance prevails to a far greater extent
+among the ignorant and uneducated than among the cultured
+classes of society. The spread of culture and education
+will do far more for temperance than the indiscriminate
+prohibition of the sale of alcoholic stimulants and the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_123">[123]</span>signing of pledges; it will divest the indulgence of the
+social cup of vulgarity, and will punish immoderation by
+social ostracism; by giving to the pleasure of exhilaration
+an ideal character, it will make the vine and the hop the
+emblems of harmless enjoyment. A clearer perception
+thus establishes a standard of ethics, which recognizes a
+proper gratification of the innate craving for enjoyment
+and exhilaration, as an essential to human happiness, but
+draws the line between what is permissible and what is not,
+between the becoming and the unbecoming. The craving
+for improvement of condition and for enjoyment is strongly
+developed in man—happily for him, for it is the very spur
+that urges him on to the physical improvement which is
+the necessary concomitant of mental advance. The love
+for exhilarating stimulants is but one phase of this craving.
+As such it is entitled to and has found recognition in our
+social laws, and the temperate use of alcoholic beverages
+is sanctioned by a practice as wide-spread as civilization
+itself, and by all classes, whatever their station or condition
+in life. Contravening legal statutes will always be found
+either wholly inoperative, or to fall far short of the intended
+effect. Whenever and wherever the temporary enforcement
+of a law prohibiting the manufacture and sale of
+such beverages has taken place, the cure, as far as the suppression
+of stimulants is concerned, has generally proved
+worse than the disease.”</p>

+
+
+<p>Similar general results are found more or less marked
+wherever such laws are in force. Druggists tell us that as
+a rule the consumption of opium in various forms from paregoric
+to laudanum has increased, bitters are more extensively
+used and in some places Scotch snuff for “dipping”
+has come into demand. The amount of opium annually
+imported is greater than that received by China a hundred
+years ago, and there is reason to suppose that many who
+are called reformed drunkards have adopted opium in some
+form and thus given themselves to a new bondage no whit
+better than the old. Notice that the increase in the sale of
+opium keeps pace in a very fair measure with the enforcement
+of prohibitory laws. One dealer in drugs in Hartford,
+Conn., recently advertised for sale five thousand
+pounds of opium, certainly a good dose for the land of
+steady habits. In the state just mentioned both prohibition
+and “local option” laws have been tried and neither
+can be considered a success. Under the present “local option”
+many towns wholly forbid the sale of spirituous and
+malt liquors, and this fact has given great prominence to
+suits arising out of the sale of what is called Schenck beer,
+which is substantially lager beer. The courts at last
+decided that this article is not intoxicating within the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_125">[125]</span>meaning of the act, and though the decision as to intoxicating
+quality is just, the fact that this beer is allowed
+while lager beer under its own name is forbidden shows
+how great a part prejudice instead of reason has played in
+the contest. “Peripatetic gin mills” are increasing in
+about the same ratio as “temperance societies” and “temperance
+detectives.” Those who pass by the name of temperance
+reformers seem in many cases to lose the sense of
+human charity and brotherly kindness, and little else can be
+expected when we remember how often they are the slaves
+of this single idea and how in all ages of the world bigotry
+has been attended by cruelty. Before giving one striking
+instance of cruelty which it is to be hoped has since been
+sincerely regretted by all concerned, we must reiterate that
+any law which every one knows to be constantly violated
+brings law into disrespect and demoralizes the community
+so far forth. The case to which reference was just made
+was mentioned in the New York <cite>World</cite>, and although other
+matters are added the whole is of sufficient interest to bear
+reproduction. The article is as follows:</p>
+
+<p>“Some time last September an old lady by the name of
+Stack who kept a farm at Northfield, Vt., sold two glasses
+of cider to a man by the name of Timothy Hogan, who informed
+against her and secured her conviction and a fine of
+$20 and expenses. In consideration of her age, sickness and
+poverty, she was allowed a short time to pay her fine, but
+not being prepared with the cash in January, she was arrested
+by Deputy Sheriff Avery, and, notwithstanding the
+severity of the weather, hauled off to prison in an open
+sleigh to Montpelier insufficiently clad. While in confinement
+sickness and poor treatment combined caused a rapid
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_126">[126]</span>decline, until her niece, a domestic in a hotel, borrowed
+sufficient money to pay her fine and effect her release.
+Her death followed shortly afterward, caused, no doubt, by
+the treatment she had received. This at the hand and in
+the cause of philanthropic reformers is bad enough, but
+worse remains. Here is a temperance man’s description of
+the system by which these reformers are guided, and which
+one of our conscientious judges in Connecticut not long
+since truly denounced as infamous. The state referred to
+is the state of the ‘Green Mountain Boys,’ and noble
+Ethan Allen—Vermont. The manner of prosecuting
+liquor cases is by what is known as the ‘spy system.’
+Every informer who can secure the conviction of any
+person receives a portion of the fine imposed. A respectable
+justice of the municipal court in one of the most important
+towns in the state is authority for the statement that
+there are certain justices of the peace who make a special
+arrangement with these informers and come in for a share
+of the profits, so that outside of the merits of the case conviction
+is a foregone conclusion every time. The prohibitory
+law in force in this state makes it a crime for a man to
+sell even a glass of cider. In the past few weeks the
+ <i>World</i> correspondent has visited Rutland, Burlington, St.
+Albans, Montpelier and other towns in the state, and found
+in every place that at the hotels and elsewhere liquor was
+sold and no questions asked. In this, as in every other
+state, where a similar law has been in force, people with
+money and influence can freely engage in the traffic with
+none to molest or make them afraid. The class of spies or
+informers who engage in the work of prosecuting liquor
+cases are the lowest people in the community. They are
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_127">[127]</span>despised by everybody except fanatical temperance reformers,
+who employ and encourage them. A prominent citizen,
+who has held high office in the state and is one of the
+substantial business men, said the other day: ‘The result
+of the prohibitory law has been to honey-comb the social
+community with hypocrisy and immorality. I have closely
+investigated the course of events since this “temperance
+wave” has swept the state, and while drunkenness is not
+on the decrease other forms of immorality are certainly on
+the increase. I would not permit my daughter, or any respectable
+young lady over whom I might have any influence,
+to even attend the evening meetings of these temperance
+societies, as I think it has been conclusively proved
+that they promote immorality.’ Such a statement coming
+from an influential and respected citizen, who himself practices
+and inculcates temperance principles, shows the tendency
+of the prohibitory movement in this state.”</p>
+
+<p>It would be an easy matter to collect volumes of evidence
+on this question of the real effect of prohibitory
+laws, all going to show that they do not prevent intemperance,
+that they do lead to the use of other stimulants, that
+they undermine the character of the community, and that,
+from whatever point of view regarded, they must be considered
+harmful to the individual and to the state. Enough,
+however, for our present purpose and for the space at command
+has been already said. Those best informed will be
+most ready to say that the presentation above given does
+not overstate, but rather falls short of displaying the corruption
+that creeps in where a prohibitory law is in force.</p>

+
+<p>What shall we do to prevent the evils of a too free use
+of intoxicating drinks, and to make our people truly temperate?</p>
+
+<p>This question was ably discussed in the State Board of
+Health of Massachusetts some years ago, and Dr. Bowditch,
+the chairman of the board, expressed himself at that
+time as follows: “I am confident that our people could
+be gradually led to a higher temperance by appeals to common
+sense while deprecating the evils of intemperance, by
+observing that the use of some liquors is deleterious, while
+the temperate use of others does little or no harm. I deem
+a love of stimulants as much a human instinct as any other
+of the so-called human instincts. And the proposition of
+total abstinence from stimulants because intoxication prevails
+widely in the community, seems to me as preposterous
+as it would be to advise universal celibacy because of the
+existence of gross evils in connection with those instincts
+that lead to the divine institution of marriage. By classifying
+all liquors as equally injurious, and by endeavoring to
+further that idea in the community, are we not doing a real
+injury to the country by preventing a free use of lager beer
+instead of ardent spirits to which our people are so addicted?
+In the sincere belief, gentlemen, that this analysis
+of our correspondence will, eventually at least, tend to help
+onward the most excellent cause of temperance everywhere,
+and in the hope that none will be offended at the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_129">[129]</span>expression at times, of my own individual opinion, which
+in the course of the discussion I have deemed it my right
+and duty to give, I remain</p>
+
+<p class="right">
+<span class="pad2r">Your colleague and friend,</span><br>
+<br>
+<span class="smcap">Henry J. Bowditch,</span><br>
+<br>
+ <i>Chairman of the State Board of Health of Massachusetts.</i>”<br>
+</p>
+
+<p>In his annual report to the State Board of Health, Dr.
+Bowditch said, speaking of the question of temperance in
+connection with the use of light wines and beer, “I fully
+agree with all that has been said of the value of light
+wines as an aid to temperance, but I sincerely believe that
+Germans are destined to be really the greatest benefactors
+of this country by bringing to us—if we choose to accept
+the boon—their beer. Lager beer contains less alcohol
+than any of the native or foreign grape wines. This fact
+with the other fact that the Germans have not the pernicious
+habits of our people, would if we chose to adopt their
+customs tend to diminish intemperance in this country.
+From the study I have made, lager beer can be used freely
+without any apparent injury to the individual, or without
+intoxication, and would be really a promoter of the temperance
+cause, and if we could so manage as to furnish the
+people with lager beer and dispense with distilled or alcoholic
+liquors entirely, the community would be immensely
+benefited.” And on page 301 in the same report, the Doctor
+properly said, “Whisky-drinkers are seen staggering
+through the streets or lying insensible in some corner,
+wherever this beverage is used. But among the light wine
+tipplers and beer-drinkers, even when drinking freely,
+drunkards are very seldom seen.”</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_130">[130]</span></p>
+<p>We have previously shown that in many cases the introduction
+of beer has added to the welfare of society, and
+that its use is perfectly consistent with habits of sobriety
+and temperance. From this we drew the inference that the
+production should be encouraged and its increase hailed as
+a sure pledge of improvement in the matters of drunkenness,
+disorder and crime. The same conclusion was reached
+by Dr. Bowditch as the result of correspondence conducted
+with a view to ascertaining fully the actual state of the
+case at home and abroad. He caused a series of inquiries
+to be carefully prepared and forwarded to thirty-three resident
+American ambassadors and to one hundred and thirty-two
+consuls, also to many other men in private or official
+positions, whose statements and opinions would be entitled
+to respect. When the answers were received the unanimity
+of the opinions expressed was almost startling. <em>All</em> are
+in favor of beer as a light, wholesome beverage, superior
+even to the light wines. Following are given a few extracts
+from the great mass of answers received:</p>
+
+<p>A physician in Massachusetts writes, “I should make a
+distinction between the use of intoxicating liquors and the
+lighter drinks. What a blessing it would be for the community
+if we could furnish the people with the best of
+lager beer and dispense with distilled liquors entirely.”</p>
+
+<p>Another physician, also resident in Massachusetts, says,
+“I have had a very large practice among the Germans for
+twenty years, and my observation has been that they are
+remarkably free from consumption and chronic diseases. I
+have attributed it to their free use of lager beer, and do
+conscientiously believe that the moderate use of this beverage
+is beneficial.”</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_131">[131]</span></p>
+<p>A letter from the consulate general of the United States
+at Frankfort-on-the-Main, reads thus: “Twenty years ago
+the state of affairs in reference to temperance was different.
+By the improvement in making beer and the selling of it to
+the people at large, at low prices, things have changed
+wonderfully. Drunkards have disappeared. A great deal
+less of cider and wine is consumed. Everybody now generally
+drinks beer. Intoxication has decreased. It cannot
+be said that the general health of the people suffers in this
+part of Germany. In the city of Frankfort, with a population
+of over one hundred thousand, and an average annual
+mortality of fifteen hundred, hardly five persons on an average
+have died of delirium tremens, which all the eminent,
+physicians here attribute to the free use of lager beer.”</p>
+
+<p>Mr. John Jay of the United States Legation at Vienna
+says: “I am advised by those in whose judgment I have full
+confidence, that the chief drinks in Austria are wine but
+particularly beer, the latter of which is drunk by all classes
+of society at home and at places of amusement, and that
+but comparatively a small amount of spirituous liquors is
+consumed except in Galicia. Touching the relative
+amount of intoxication in the country where I am residing,
+and that seen all over the United States, I do say that I
+have seen more intoxicated persons in the streets of New
+York in one day than I have chanced to see in Vienna
+during the past year.”</p>
+
+<p>Baron Liebig, the eminent chemist, makes the following
+statements: “Beer unites in its composition a number of
+constituents whose action is such as to more or less completely
+neutralize the alcohol whose tendency is to exalt
+the function of the brain and nervous system.”</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_132">[132]</span></p>
+<p>“Fermented juices, in general, differ from spirits in containing
+alkalies, organic acids and certain other substances.”</p>
+
+<p>“Pure lager beer when taken with lean flesh and little
+bread yields a diet approaching to milk, and with fat meat,
+approaching to rice or potatoes.” And in another place,
+“In beer-drinking countries, it is the universal medicine
+for the healthy as well as for the sick, and it is milk to the
+aged.”</p>
+
+<p>Dr. Schlaeger of Vienna, also a distinguished chemist,
+says:</p>
+
+<p>“It is my opinion, based on numerous cases that have
+come under my professional observation, that delirium tremens
+and other maladies to which inebriates are subject
+are caused chiefly by the use of <em>distilled liquors</em>. Therefore
+the manufacture and sale of beer should be encouraged.
+It should be free from taxation in order that it
+may be placed within the reach of all at a low price and
+thoroughly take the place of ardent spirits.”</p>
+
+<p>The editor of the Chicago <cite>Tribune</cite>, writing from Germany,
+says: “Drunkenness is so rare and infrequent that
+it may be said not to exist. I have traveled thousands of
+miles through Germany, in various directions, visiting
+nearly all the chief cities, and have made diligent inquiry
+of American consuls and other well-informed persons, and
+received but one answer everywhere, <i>viz.</i>, no drunkenness
+among the Germans; public sentiment would not tolerate
+it; the habits of the country are all against it. And what
+is the reason of this freedom from inebriation? It is the
+total absence of whisky and the substitution of lager beer.”</p>

+
+<p>Mr. Y. G. Hurd wrote to Mr. Bowditch in reference to
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_133">[133]</span>the beer question and after referring to the records of the
+Essex police court and alluding to intemperance caused by
+ardent spirits, continued as follows: “Of all our commitments
+60 per cent. are directly traceable to drunkenness.
+Is the enforcement of a prohibitory or any other law alone
+to rid us of the monster? Were there only the pecuniary
+interest of the liquor traffic to meet, powerful as it is, the
+result would not, be doubtful. But there are climatic influences,
+the universal desire for stimulants, the education of
+our civilization for some centuries, social customs and
+hereditary tendencies, all tending in a greater or less degree
+to perpetuate the evil. * * * * * A visit to Chicago
+and my observation there of the habits of the German
+population, first brought to my mind doubts that total abstinence
+will ever be an accomplished fact. I visited the
+beer gardens on Sunday to see how the Germans spend
+the day. There was a band of music, a dance floor, rude
+seats and tables like our New England picnics, in a beautiful
+grove, and lager in such quantities as I had never conceived.
+Everybody, old and young, drank and seemed to
+continue to drink during the afternoon. But lager was the
+only beverage. No liquors, no drunkenness and no fights
+or disorderly conduct. The young men and maidens were
+merry and danced, the elder drank and talked with the
+gravity and dignity becoming to respectable German citizens;
+the children sipped their glass of lager and gamboled
+on the grass, and all went home apparently sober, to resume
+without doubt, their usual avocations on the morrow.
+There were probably two thousand persons taking their
+weekly recreation, and this was only one of half a dozen
+similar places about the suburbs of the city. Now if this
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_134">[134]</span>had been an American or Irish congregation, and the beverage
+the usual vile concoctions called whisky, gin and
+brandy, would not the closing scenes of the afternoon have
+been very different? Broken heads, bloody noses, and the
+wayside strewn with the wrecks of humanity in beastly intoxication.
+I thought if we could be rid of the grosser liquors—banish
+them, put them in the pale of dangerous drugs
+to be only dispensed by the physician like other poisons,
+and substitute the lager of the Germans and the light wines
+of France and <em>our own country</em>—should we not be doing
+our best to exterminate the curse of drunkenness? I expect
+we shall yet come to this conclusion. The difficulty
+is that with the tastes of our people, lager and wines will
+be, indeed, now are, a cover for the sale of the grosser
+liquors, and worse than all, these liquors are without exception,
+adulterated or poisonous. I have written at your
+request this somewhat candid statement of my present
+views as briefly as possible.”</p>
+
+<p>A physician who has under his professional charge, a
+large institution for the maintenance of aged persons, informs
+us that the demand for stimulus in the form of tea is
+a matter of constant observation, and he moreover gives it
+as his opinion that from twenty to twenty-five per cent. of
+the whole number are <em>tea sots</em>, drinking tea regularly from
+four to six times a day and as much oftener as they can
+procure it. They show the effect of this over-stimulation
+by increased mental irritability, muscular tremors and a
+greater or less degree of sleeplessness. Another fact to the
+same purport has been communicated to us by a friend. A
+domestic in the family sometimes appeared intoxicated and
+as it was certain she could not get at any of the liquors generally
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_135">[135]</span>considered intoxicating, the circumstance excited no
+little surprise and curiosity. At last the problem was
+solved by the discovery that she drank large quantities of
+the strongest tea. This it will be seen is in exact conformity
+with the opinion of Mr. Gladstone as previously quoted,
+and more or less marked cases of the same nature have
+doubtless been observed by many of our readers.</p>

+<p>A. Schwarz, Esq., of New York, the editor of “Der
+Americanische Bierbrauer,” a man known in both hemispheres,
+as an able writer and chemical student, who by
+his life-long study in fermented beverages has won for himself
+the thanks of every brewer, writes thus: “Among all
+drinks, as well those which nature furnishes in abundance
+as those which are produced by human skill, lager beer
+especially commends itself by its properties as an excellent
+beverage.</p>
+
+<p>“Milk contains nutritious substances (protein) and various
+salts.</p>
+
+<p>“Wine contains alcohol and small quantities of salts.</p>
+
+<p>“Mineral waters, which render such valuable service to
+the diseased human organism, contain carbonic acid and
+salt.</p>
+
+<p>“Coffee and tea contain volatile aromatic oils and alkaloids.</p>
+
+<p>“Strong spirituous liquors, as whisky, brandy, rum, arrack
+and gin, contain only more or less alcohol, with some etherial
+oils.</p>
+
+<p>“The various popular so-called temperance drinks are distinguished
+only by their watery contents, which are flavored
+with sugar and extracts of plants and herbs to make
+them taste less insipid.</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_136">[136]</span></p>
+<p>“Beer contains protein, alcohol, salts and carbonic acid
+gas, and hence possesses nutritious, stimulating and refreshing
+properties.</p>
+
+<p>“It is not our intention to write a eulogy of beer. We
+will only state in its favor what cannot be denied by any
+man, be he a physician or a mechanic, a philosopher or a
+manufacturer, a chemist or an engineer, a wine-drinker or
+a temperance man.</p>
+
+<p>“We denote as extracts of beer those solid substances
+which are not, through the fermentation of the wort, transformed
+into volatile bodies, and therefore remain as a sediment
+after the evaporation of the beer. This extract consists
+of malt sugar obtained by the mashing process, of
+albumen contained in the malt and now dissolved, and of
+certain salts, especially phosphoric salt, which were originally
+contained in the barley, and have not been lost during
+the process of brewing.</p>
+
+<p>“The amount of the extract of beer mainly depends on
+the original concentration of the wort and on that state of
+fermentation in which the beer is consumed; it varies from
+three to eight per cent.</p>
+
+<p>“By virtue of its protein and its salts, it has a very nutritious
+effect upon the human organism, and though it does
+so in a less degree than meat or bread, yet on account of
+the form of solution in which it appears in the beer, it is
+easier assimilated, <i>i. e.</i>, it easily enters the organism and
+plays a prominent part in the formation of milk, muscle,
+flesh and bones,—and the quantity of alcohol contained in
+beer is so small and so much diluted with water, that it can
+produce intoxication only if consumed in a very great
+quantity, <i>i. e.</i>, by an immoderate use.”</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_137">[137]</span></p>
+<p>An international congress has just been held in Paris on
+“Alcoholism,” and the Belgian delegate, Dr. Barella, constituted
+himself the champion of beer. He contended that
+the consumption of spirits should be discountenanced, because
+these beverages are harmful, and that the consumption
+of beer should be encouraged, because it is a sound,
+wholesome and harmless drink. He pointed out that in
+countries where the wines are good, and the beers agreeable
+and nutritive, much less spirits are consumed, and <i>vice
+versa</i>.</p>
+
+<p>Following is a summary of the points made in the report
+of Dr. Bowditch previously quoted. They will be found
+useful and interesting, and the whole document deserves
+the highest praise for thoroughness of investigation, caution
+of statement and fairness of spirit.</p>
+
+<p>1st. Stimulants are used everywhere, and at times
+abused, by savage and by civilized men. Consequently intoxication
+occurs all over the globe.</p>
+
+<p>2nd. This love of stimulants is one of the strongest instincts.
+It cannot be annihilated, but may be regulated by
+reason, by conscience, by education, or by law when it encroaches
+on the rights of others.</p>
+
+<p>3rd. Climatic law governs it, the tendency to indulge
+to intoxication being not only greater as we go from the
+heat of the equator towards the north, but the character of
+that intoxication becoming more violent.</p>
+
+<p>4th. Owing to this cosmic law intemperance is very
+rare near the equator. It is there a social crime and a disgrace
+of the deepest dye. Licentiousness and gambling are
+small offenses compared with it. To call a man a drunkard
+is the highest of insults. On the contrary at the north
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_138">[138]</span>of 50° it is very frequent, is less of a disgrace and is by no
+means a social crime.</p>
+
+<p>5th. Intemperance causes little or no crime toward the
+equator. It is an almost constant cause of crime either directly
+or indirectly at the north above 50°.</p>
+
+<p>6th. Intemperance is modified by race as shown in the
+different tendencies to intoxication of different people.</p>
+
+<p>7th. Races are modified physically and morally by the
+kind of liquor they use as proved by examination of the returns
+from Austria and Switzerland.</p>
+
+<p>8th. Beer, native light grape wines and ardent spirits
+should not be classed together, for they produce very different
+effects on the individual and upon the race.</p>
+
+<p>9th. German beer and ale can be used even freely without
+any very apparent injury to the individual, or without
+causing intoxication. They contain very small percentages
+of alcohol (4 or 4.5 to 6.50 per cent.). Light grape wines,
+unfortified by an extra amount of alcohol, can be drunk
+less freely but without apparent injury to the race, and
+with exhilaration rather than drunkenness. Some writers
+think they do no harm but a real good if used moderately.
+They never produce the violent crazy drunkenness, so noticeable
+from the use of the ardent spirits of the north.
+Ardent spirits, on the contrary, unless used very moderately,
+and with great temperance, and with the determination
+to omit them as soon as the occasion has passed for
+their use, are almost always injurious, if continued even
+moderately for any length of time, for they gradually encroach
+on the vital powers. If used immoderately they
+cause a beastly narcotism which makes the victim regardless
+of all the amenities and even the decencies of life, or perhaps
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_139">[139]</span>they render him furiously crazy, so that he may murder
+his best friend.</p>
+
+<p>10th. Races may be educated to evil by bad laws, or by
+the introduction of bad habits. France and a small part of
+Switzerland are beginning to suffer from the introduction
+of absinthe and other spirituous liquors. Especially is this
+noticeable since the late Franco-German war.</p>
+
+<p>11th. A race, when it emigrates, carries its habits with
+it. For a time at least, those habits may override all climatic
+law.</p>
+
+<p>12th. England has thus overshadowed our whole country
+with its love of strong drinks, and with its habits of intoxication,
+as it has more recently covered Ceylon, parts of
+the East and Australia.</p>
+
+<p>13th. This influence on our own country is greater now
+than it would have been if our forefathers, the early settlers,
+had cultivated the vine, which would have been practicable,
+as seen by the examples of Ohio and California,
+and from the fact that the whole of the United States lies
+in the region of the earth’s surface suited to the grape culture.</p>
+
+<p>14th. If these early settlers had done this our nation
+would probably have been more temperate, and a vast industry
+like that of France, of Spain and of Italy and Germany,
+in light native wines, would long ago have sprung
+up.</p>
+
+<p>15th. The example set by California and Ohio<a id="FNanchor_21" href="#Footnote_21" class="fnanchor">[21]</a> should
+be followed by the whole country, where the vine can be
+grown. As a temperance measure it behooves every good
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_140">[140]</span>citizen to promote that most desirable object. We should
+also allow the light, unfortified wines of Europe to be introduced
+free of duty instead of the large one now imposed.
+Instead of refusing the German lager beer, we should seek
+to have it introduced into the present “grog shops” and
+thus substitute a comparatively innoxious article for those
+potent liquors, which now bring disaster and death into so
+many families.</p>
+
+<div class="footnotes"><div class="footnote">
+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_21" href="#FNanchor_21" class="label">[21]</a> Ohio has already made very great progress
+<span style="margin-left: 0.5em;">in this direction, and its wines</span><br>
+are lighter than those of California. [Author.]</p>
+
+</div></div>
+
+<p>16th. The moral sense of the community should be
+aroused to the enormity of the evils flowing from keeping
+an open bar for the sale of ardent spirits, while those for the
+sale of light wines and of lager beer or ale should not be
+opposed, except for the sale to habitual drunkards after due
+notice from friends. Sellers violating such law might be
+compelled to support for a time the family of their victim.</p>
+
+<p>17th. The horrid nature of drunkenness should be impressed
+by every means in our power upon the moral sense
+of the people. The habitual drunkard should be punished,
+or if he be a <em>dipsomaniac</em>, he should be placed in an inebriate
+asylum for medical and moral treatment, until he has
+gained sufficient self-respect to enable him to overcome his
+love of drink.</p>
+
+<p>We give next an extract from an article written by Dr.
+Willard Parker, which article was printed March 20th,
+1879, in the <cite>Religious Herald</cite>, a temperance paper published
+at Hartford, Conn. Dr. Parker says: “We have
+never had a single case of an inebriate in the asylum at
+Binghamton, (N. Y.,) who came here from using fermented
+beverages, he may have begun with them and gone
+on to other and stronger liquors, but the mere fermented
+beverages did not make an inebriate of him; * * * and
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_141">[141]</span>while men use simply fermented liquors with no more alcohol
+than comes from their fermentation, drunkenness is but
+little known.” He says also that fermentation is a process
+of nature which will continue to exist as long as there is
+sugar and starch. Fermentation is the work of omnipotence,
+not the work of man, it grows out of the very constitution
+of things and is as truly a divine process as
+growth itself.</p>
+
+<p>Professor Mulder of Amsterdam remarks in the preface
+to his “Chemistry of Beer,” page <span class="allsmcap">IV.</span>, “I dare say without
+exaggeration that we find united in beer all the wholesome
+substances that are met separately in the various carbonic
+acid mineral waters, in wine and in bread,” and in
+reference to the alcoholic property of beer he says, page
+461: “Many people are prejudicially influenced by the
+frequent misuse of alcoholic beverages and kept from reasoning
+honestly and truly as to their salubrious effects in a
+diluted form such as we find in beer. If we consider the
+beneficial effects of good beer on the system we cannot
+help attributing a share in the result to the alcoholic element,
+even if it be held that alcohol has in itself no nutritive
+power.” The same opinion is held by Prof. Pittenkofer,
+the renowned and well-deserving chemist and hygienist, on
+the strength of numerous observations and results of minute
+examination.</p>
+
+<p>Professor Stahlschmied formerly at Berlin and at present
+at the royal polytechnic school at Aix-la-Chapelle, says in
+his work “Chemistry in reference to Fermentation,” page
+255: “Up to the present time, experiments on the nourishing
+properties of beer have not been sufficiently numerous
+to furnish definite conclusions. It is not so much the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_142">[142]</span>small amount of organic extract that is to be considered as
+the ashes and phosphates which are here provided in a form
+easy of assimilation. In this respect beer is next to milk
+and furnishes an aliment that is directly bone producing.”
+It is well known that beer is very commonly taken by
+nursing women on account of its nourishing and milk-producing
+qualities and the fact furnishes evidence from
+experience to the same purport as the technical statement
+just quoted.</p>
+
+<p>The report of the Department of Agriculture at Washington
+as far back as the year 1866 speaks as follows:
+“The intemperate use of beer is like the intemperate use
+of anything detrimental to health, but a moderate use of
+pure beer will aid digestion, quicken the powers of life,
+and give elasticity to the body and mind and will not produce
+any of the terrible results named by fanatics and
+ignorant people. In certain forms of dyspepsia it is a valuable
+assistant to other remedies and in some cases of debility
+requiring a mild tonic and gentle stimulant beer has
+been found of the greatest benefit.”</p>
+
+<p>Touching the nutritious properties of beer as compared
+with the grain from which it is made Professor Mulder
+says: “The food value of beer as compared with grain is
+as one to fourteen, no account being made of the food
+value of the alcohol contained in beer. The albumen
+value of beer as compared with grain is as one to six, the
+fat as one to seventy and the chemical salts as one to
+twenty-five. On the whole, the latest and most trustworthy
+results of scientific investigation go to show that a
+well brewed beer, properly compounded with hops and
+well matured, is to be considered a beverage which has a
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_143">[143]</span>most beneficial influence on the transmutation of substances
+in the human body; if moderately taken.”</p>
+
+<p>Sir Henry Labouchere, editor of “Truth” and formerly
+member of Parliament for Windsor and Middlesex, an
+accomplished linguist, and fitted both as an original thinker
+and by experience in the diplomatic <i lang="fr"> corps</i> at most of the
+capitals of Europe, to form a just opinion, says that experience
+shows that beer is a most wholesome beverage, that
+when pure it is not intoxicating and can be drunk freely,
+that its use adds to the health and strength of man, that
+intoxication hardly exists where it is the national beverage
+and that its introduction in all parts of the world would be
+a blessing to mankind.</p>
+
+<p>Professors Ure and Huxley, Dr. Harvey, Dr. Abercrombie
+and Bayard Taylor, the celebrated traveler and recent
+ambassador at the court at Berlin, as also our great statesman
+and historian George Bancroft, all came, after careful
+study and personal observation, to the same conclusion,
+that beer is not only healthy, refreshing and enlivening as
+a beverage, but also an excellent means of rooting out the
+love of strong drink and securing genuine temperance.</p>
+
+<p>Dr. A. Baer, member of the Royal Sanitary Council,
+and chief physician at the prisons of Berlin and Ploetzensee
+near Berlin has, within a few months, published a valuable
+work on alcoholism. He says, “Beer is of all drinks
+best adapted for a stimulating beverage of general consumption.
+It combines with the refreshing, animating and
+thirst-quenching elements, distinct nutritive qualities,
+mainly due to the abundant presence of certain salts, and
+thus becomes one of the very best substitutes for extract of
+meat. The greater number of characteristic principles of
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_144">[144]</span>the one are found in the other, but the decided nervous
+animation experienced after drinking beer is <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: cheifly" id="cheifly">chiefly</ins> due to
+the large portion of phosphate of potassa, which <i lang="de">Mitcherlich</i>
+says forms 20 parts in 100 of beer ashes, and which,
+according to Ranke, constitutes the principal active ingredient
+in meat broth. To the presence of this salt, beer
+owes its strengthening influence during convalescence and
+in cases of general debility, and its marked tendency to
+produce corpulency, as shown in beer-drinkers. In addition
+to this the bitter principle of the hops has a tonic
+power of marked value in assisting digestion while the
+modicum of alcohol has a stimulating and animating effect
+on the brain. On the whole, beer as a beverage cannot
+be excelled, as it possesses a number of qualities which
+jointly have a most salutary effect upon the human
+organism.”</p>
+
+<p>In a report presented a short time ago to the Industrial
+Society of Mulhouse the well-known Dr. Schoellamer thus
+speaks of beer:</p>
+
+<p>“Beer is one of the best drinks that we can recommend,
+its consumption being most wholesome. Good beer ought
+to be regarded as an excellent drink, capable in itself of replacing
+all other fermented drinks. Thus its moderate
+consumption must be strongly recommended. If its price
+is high a great obstacle is placed in the way of a natural
+consumption.</p>
+
+<p>“Beer contains from two to eight per cent. of alcohol, a
+dose of carbonic acid equal to three or four times its volume;
+when it is exposed to the air it loses all its gas. It
+contains besides azote and phosphates; for example, a liter
+of good beer, made exclusively with hops and barley, contains
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_145">[145]</span>0.80 gr. of azote, which corresponds to 5.26 grains of
+albuminoid matters. There are again from 0.60 gr. to 0.80
+gr. of phosphoric acid, that is as much as in 530 grammes
+of meat or 220 grammes of bread. The solid extract of
+beer contains salts favorable to nutrition, etc. It is on
+these accounts that beer may be considered a beverage of
+the first order.</p>
+
+<p>“It slacks thirst admirably, and as it contains a great
+deal of water it is perhaps the best of all for that purpose.
+As an alcoholic drink it is superior to all spirituous liquors.
+It is the most tonic, the most operative, and the most nourishing.
+Complete drunkenness is almost impossible with
+ordinary beer, whatever quantity may be consumed; what
+is known as “alcoholism” is not produced by it. In fact
+beer exercises on the human economy a tonic, nutritive,
+diuretic, and slightly stupefying action, the last effect being
+due to the essential oil contained in the hops, but large
+quantities must be absorbed before this effect can be produced.”</p>
+
+<p>Professor W. Nasse, president of the Society of Medical
+Officers of Insane Asylums in Germany, presented for consideration
+at their annual meeting held at Hamburg, Sept.
+17, 1876, the following question: “How can we specially
+assist in preventing the injury which results from the use
+of alcoholic liquors?” It was decided that the only
+means was in promoting the use of good mild beer. The
+same opinion has been expressed by Dr. Selman in an address
+delivered at Dusseldorf, and also by Dr. Roller of
+Illenau, a meritorious specialist in mental diseases, and by
+Professors Griesinger of Zurich and Schreiber-Berzelius of
+Sweden. All the authorities just quoted hold a high rank
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_146">[146]</span>in their profession, and contributions from their pens frequently
+appear in the <cite>Quarterly Journal of Inebriety</cite>, published
+at Hartford, Conn.</p>
+
+<p>The Contemporary Review has lately published a series
+of papers on the same topic, written in a popular style by
+several London physicians of celebrity, including Dr. Walter
+Moxon, Sir James Paget and others, and all opposing
+the doctrine of total abstinence and declaring themselves in
+favor of beer as a promotive of the real temperance cause.
+Dr. Albert T. Bernays, too, has considered with great minuteness
+the cause of intemperance and his conclusion is
+that beer is the safest kind of alcohol and should be
+adopted as a common beverage by all classes of people.</p>
+
+<p>In the Minnesota Legislature when the prohibitory law
+was under consideration, Dr. Riley, a representative from
+Houston county, spoke as follows: “In the district where
+I reside there is a large number of Germans who have
+come from the old country and planted grapes, and now
+there are magnificent vineyards stretching along the hillsides
+where formerly there was not grass enough to feed a
+sheep. They raise large quantities of very fine grapes
+which they ship all over the country. They also make
+very fine wine. The proposed law will destroy these vineyards
+of my constituents. * * * Perhaps it will be necessary
+to pass a law to protect those miserable drunkards
+who cannot protect themselves but it is not necessary to
+restrain others of their liberty to drink when they want or
+need it.</p>
+
+<p>“Why, I have seen ladies at a tea-party, perhaps not
+drunk, but certainly very jolly from drinking tea, and yet
+they come to this Legislature with petitions signed by all
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_147">[147]</span>whom they could influence or bulldoze into signing, men,
+women or children to the number of ten thousand. There
+are eight hundred thousand people in Minnesota, and we
+are proposing to let these ten thousand override the other
+seven hundred and ninety thousand. They claim as prohibitionists
+that drinking tends to impoverish the people.
+Do you believe that? Look at the Germans! Many of
+them take a piece of land that would scarcely support a
+hog and make a fortune of it. They all drink beer. They
+take their wives and their children to the beer garden and
+sit down and drink their beer every day, and even the babe
+in arms will stretch to get a taste of it. These people are
+not impoverished by it. These people are so healthy in
+my neighborhood that I have actually not been able to
+make a living out of my German constituents.</p>
+
+<p>“They say it tends to the degeneration of the human
+race. How does it happen that in New England where
+prohibitory laws are in force the race has so degenerated
+that they do not seem to be able to raise any children?
+Look at the Germans who drink beer all the time. You
+will find a large family of healthy children in almost every
+German house. Are they degenerated?</p>
+
+<p>“The children of total abstinence people are constantly
+dying. From the vital statistics of Minnesota I learn that
+over two thousand children died last year under two years
+of age. They would not have died if they had been fed on
+good wholesome beer. I would advise mothers—and I
+have advised them in my practice—to give their sickly
+children plenty of beer, and I know I have saved many an
+infant’s life. Beer is the best cure for dyspepsia in the
+world. I have cured women of this terrible disease by advising
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_148">[148]</span>them to drink three glasses of beer every day, and I
+say again to you mothers that if you will drink beer and
+feed your children on beer you will raise more and healthier
+children.</p>
+
+<p>“Referring to the vital statistics of the state, I find that
+but six men died of intemperance during last year—two of
+delirium tremens and four of something else, which they
+couldn’t tell anything about, and so called it intemperance.
+And yet you want to stop drinking. Eleven were killed
+by horses during the same time. Why don’t you abolish
+horses—never use them or go near them? Thirty-five committed
+suicide. Why don’t you prohibit the use of firearms
+and knives, and drain all your lakes and rivers for fear
+some poor fool will drown himself? Some 152 died of
+heart disease. I don’t want any heart in mine. Twenty
+ladies were scalded to death. You ought to prohibit the
+use of hot water for fear that more ladies will get into it
+and perish.</p>
+
+<p>“England away across the sea has brewed beer for many
+hundred years and will continue to brew for thousands of
+years more, and to the fact that the English people have
+drunk beer all that time I do conscientiously attribute her
+present greatness. Beer-drinkers are slow but sure. Look
+at Germany, that great nation. We could not pay her for
+the money we have borrowed of her. Her great army, the
+best in the world, her great statesmen, her philosophers,
+were all raised on beer.”</p>

+</figure>
+
+<p>The Hon. Frederick Lauer in a speech before the Brewers’
+Convention at St. Louis, June 4, 1879, thus presents a
+phase of the beer question which is certainly of importance:</p>
+
+<p>“What we now want to ensure the future happiness and
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_149">[149]</span>prosperity of the country is the enactment of liberal laws to
+induce the industrious classes of overcrowded Europe to
+flock to our shores. We want immigration for the purpose
+of building up our towns and cities, developing our manufacturing
+enterprises, and cultivating the millions of fertile
+acres in this country now lying idle. The thrifty German
+is accustomed to his daily ration of beer. In the land of
+his nativity he has his parks and public gardens, where
+family unions and social gatherings take place amid the
+ecstatic influence of the foaming lager. The English, Irish,
+Scotch, and people of other European countries are noted
+patrons of malt liquors. The greatest liberality should,
+therefore, be shown them in the indulgence in their customary
+beverages in the land of their adoption. With the
+more general use of malt liquors the hundreds of quack
+medicines now in the market will disappear, as it has been
+proved by experience in countries where malt beverages are
+the popular drink, that health and longevity are marked
+features, and dyspepsia and chronic complaints are rare.
+The tide of emigration is again swelling to this country.
+According to the <cite>New York Herald</cite> of the first of May last,
+the total number of immigrants landed at New York for the
+first three months of 1879 was 11,288, more than two-thirds
+of whom came from Germany, England and Ireland. The
+emigration of aliens to the United States from 1789 to 1877
+is set down in round numbers at 10,000,000, who, with their
+descendants have built up this great nation. Since May 5,
+1847, the emigration to this country has reached 5,732,183
+souls. In view of these facts nothing should be done to
+interfere with the happiness of those who seek our shores,
+but by means of wise laws they should be protected in the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_150">[150]</span>enjoyment of their rights and privileges. To be successful
+as a government we should invite immigration, and develop
+our great natural resources, and then by promoting health
+and temperate habits by the adoption of beer as the
+national beverage, we will increase as a nation, and be in
+truth and in fact the greatest country on the face of the
+earth.”</p>

+<span class="chapt_sub">CONCLUSION.</span></h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p>In the foregoing pages it has been impossible to give a
+hundredth part of the evidence that lies ready at hand in
+this matter of the use and effects of beer, but we have endeavored,
+by careful selection, to present such as must have
+weight with all readers. Nothing has been stated as a fact
+which cannot be amply corroborated, and no inference
+drawn that did not seem to be fully warranted by the premises.
+It has been shown that beer is wholesome, and so
+mildly alcoholic as to make drunkenness from its use very
+uncommon. A man who drinks in order to become intoxicated,
+can, no doubt, accomplish his purpose with beer; but
+such men are almost unknown where beer is the common
+beverage. This abnormal impulse usually comes only in
+consequence of a course of ardent spirits.</p>
+
+<p>The evidence as to the cure of intemperance by the introduction
+of a free use of beer is especially important, and
+one of the most striking instances of such success is to be
+found in the case of Denmark, to which we desire again to
+call special attention. This is the central point of the
+whole question. Heartily desiring the progress of genuine
+temperance, and fully believing that all efforts in the direction
+of prohibition are false in theory and injurious in
+practice, that they do not prevent intemperance and do
+produce many other evils, we hold that the safe and only
+course is to popularize the use of beer, and cannot doubt
+that government would do well to foster its manufacture in
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_152">[152]</span>every practicable way, and that taxation on the product
+should be abolished, or at least made very light. Such a
+course would not merely secure the very end which has
+been unsuccessfully attempted by prohibitory laws, but it
+would do much more. It would diminish the poor rates,
+save the money spent in prosecutions, which, after all, do no
+real good, and incidentally improve the whole business condition.
+Some refreshing, stimulating drink the people will
+have, and legislators should seek to guide the instinct, not
+eradicate it. Men of the highest scientific authority have
+again and again pronounced beer to be not merely harmless,
+but beneficial. Experience in the countries where it is
+most used develops the same result, and the readiness with
+which it is adopted in place of ardent spirits, whenever it is
+of good quality and low price, shows how easily the experiment
+of temperance on this basis can be tried. Even advocates
+of total abstinence must admit that beer is better
+than whisky. The fact that it adds greatly to the enjoyment
+of a people must not be ignored. Here in America
+we are apt to forget all but the work-a-day part of life, but
+the demand for recreation exists and must be gratified in
+some way, and almost always recreation is social, and is
+made more enjoyable and cheerful by some mild stimulant.
+It refreshes and enlivens, and so contributes directly to the
+social happiness that is the object sought.</p>
+
+<p>It is to be hoped that legislators in general will soon
+learn to take broader views than seem generally to have
+prevailed in the past. Statesmanship is not bounded by
+the views of one or the other party and is affected by no
+popular clamor. It does not enact a law because it is
+loudly demanded by a certain set of persons, especially if
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_153">[153]</span>these persons have a hobby to ride, no matter how earnestly
+they may believe in it. A statesman will see for instance
+in this temperance question, that the stay of drunkenness
+must be through a social change. Legal prohibition
+can do little while all the other conditions of the
+problem remain unchanged. Something must be given for
+what is forbidden. If beer is encouraged ardent spirits can
+be driven out, and when this idea is once thoroughly understood
+and put in practice we shall have the temperance
+era, so long expected and so ardently desired.</p>
+
+<p>There is another subject which we approach with some
+reluctance, knowing that however carefully our words may
+be weighed, there is a large number of estimable individuals
+throughout the country and particularly in the Eastern
+states, to whom they will probably give offense. We
+allude to what is called the Sunday question, and the topic
+is treated here because in this country beer drinking is, in
+the common mind, intimately associated with the German
+Americans and their custom of spending part of Sunday in
+recreation in a beer garden. The fact that they do so has
+been more than once used as an argument against them
+and against the use of beer, as if there were any real connection
+between the character of the drink and such a custom
+on the part of its greatest consumers even supposing
+the custom to be actually harmful or immoral. As such a
+feeling exists, however, it seems worth while to call attention
+to the fact that what is known as the New England
+Sunday is not an essential part of Christianity as so many
+honestly suppose, but something that in comparison with
+Christianity is new and local. We need hardly say that in
+the early days of the church it was distinctly taught that
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_154">[154]</span>the time of the Jewish sabbath was past and for several
+hundred years this view was generally held. Notice the
+following passages from the New Testament:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+
+<p>“The law and the prophets were until John. * * Old
+things are passed away; behold all things are become new. * *
+Brethren ye have been called unto liberty; only use not that
+liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
+For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou
+shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. * * Love worketh no ill
+to his neighbor.</p>
+
+<p>“If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is
+perfected in us. * * For love is of God; and every one that
+loveth is born of God and knoweth God. He that loveth not,
+knoweth not God; for God is love. * * But he that hateth
+his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth
+not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his
+eyes.</p>
+
+<p>“A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another.
+* * Love is the fulfilling of the law.”</p>
+</div>
+
+<p>Jesus himself taught the disregard of the sabbath as a
+day of ceasing from labor or recreation and are we to suppose
+that both his teaching and practice had no meaning?</p>
+
+<p>Paul says, “One man esteemeth one day above another: another
+esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded
+in his own mind. Let no man therefore judge you in respect
+of a holy day or of the new moon or of the sabbath days.”</p>
+
+<p>The first legal enactment requiring an observance of
+Sunday as a Sabbath, was foisted upon the Christian world
+A. D. 321, by Constantine the Great—a heartless tyrant
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_155">[155]</span>who had caused seven members of his family to be put to
+death in cold blood, that he might attain political and religious
+supremacy! He embraced Christianity because the
+Pagan priests and pontiffs could not grant him absolution,
+and would not fraternize with such a murderous monster!
+Hence he became the father of the so-called Sunday laws.
+Even Constantine’s decree did not interdict recreation nor
+the tillage of the soil. In general, through the Christian
+world, the day was a holiday, such as it now is on the continent
+of Europe. There the hours of service in the churches
+fall, usually, in the morning, and are strictly observed while
+the rest of the day is universally given to enjoyment. Let
+those, however, who are accustomed to cry out at the notion
+of a continental Sunday, remember that they are themselves
+the innovators, and let them, too, examine the following
+passages from the writings of men whose names must command
+respect, and not one of whom would speak in such a
+matter without mature consideration:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+
+<p>“It will be plainly seen that Jesus did decidedly and avowedly
+<span class="allsmcap">VIOLATE THE SABBATH</span>. The dogma of the assembly of divines
+at Westminster, that the observance of the Sabbath is a part of
+the moral law, is to me utterly unintelligible.”—Archbishop
+Whately.</p>
+
+<p>“As for the seventh day, that has gone to its grave with the
+signs and shadows of the Old Testament. Its imposition by law
+leads to blood and stoning to death those who do but gather sticks
+thereon; a thing which no way becomes the gospel.”—Bunyan.</p>
+
+<p>“The law of the Sabbath being thus repealed, that no particular
+day of worship has been appointed in its place is evident.”—Milton.</p>
+
+<p>“They who think that by the authority of the Church, the observance
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_156">[156]</span>of the Lord’s day was appointed instead of the Sabbath,
+as if necessary, are greatly deceived.—Melancthon.</p>
+
+<p>* * “And truly we see what such a doctrine has profited;
+for those who adopt it far exceed the Jews in a gross, carnal and
+superstitious observance of the Sabbath.”—John Calvin.</p>
+
+<p>“As regards the Sabbath or Sunday, there is no necessity for
+keeping it; but if we do it ought not to be on account of Moses’s
+commandment, but because nature teaches us from time to time
+to take a day of rest. * * If anywhere the day is made holy
+for the mere day’s sake, then I order you to work on it, to ride on
+it, to dance on it, to do anything that will reprove this encroachment
+on Christian spirit and liberty.”—Martin Luther.</p>
+
+<p>“These things refute those who suppose that the first day of
+the week (that is, the Lord’s day), was substituted in place of the
+Sabbath, for no mention is made of such a thing by Christ or his
+Apostles.”—Grotius.</p>
+</div>
+
+<p>Tyndale the martyr, Erasmus, Paley, McNight and a host
+of other Christian authorities, were and are of the same
+opinion regarding Sabbath observance. England and America
+stand practically alone in retaining so much of the Jewish
+Sabbath. Here is a letter from Benjamin Franklin to
+Jared Ingersoll of New Haven, Conn., which bears directly
+on the subject and may be read with both interest and profit
+by those who concern themselves in Sunday laws.<a id="FNanchor_22" href="#Footnote_22" class="fnanchor">[22]</a></p>

+<p>A correspondent of the New York <cite>Staats-Zeitung</cite><a id="FNanchor_23" href="#Footnote_23" class="fnanchor">[23]</a> writes
+as follows: “The Emperor of Germany has made a contribution
+to the discussion of the Sunday question, that is
+very much to the point. It is an address to the Prussian
+Synod, which had recently objected to the holding of a review
+on Sunday, and reads thus: ‘He who instituted the
+Sabbath has declared that the Sabbath was made for man,
+and not man for the Sabbath. The puritanic and Calvinistic
+conception of the Sabbath as a day of penance and
+repentance, has always been foreign to the feeling and taste
+of the German people.’”</p>

+
+<p class="noindent"><a id="Footnote_23" href="#FNanchor_23" class="label">[23]</a> New York <cite>Staats-Zeitung</cite>, Nov. 1, 1879.</p>
+
+</div></div>
+
+<p>These words of the Emperor will receive the hearty assent
+of every German-American, and preachers and pietists
+may as well understand that Germans in America will
+struggle as long for their free Sunday as Germans in their
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_158">[158]</span>old home have for a free German Rhine. They have conquered
+back the “sacred stream” and something more into
+the bargain, and we here shall have no less success in securing
+a free, cheerful Sunday, if we remain united and true
+to our principles.</p>
+
+<p>England formerly held the same views that then and
+since have prevailed on the continent, but gradually the
+liberty of the day was restricted and its character wholly
+changed. We have lately met with an excellent summary
+of the course of legislation that produced this result. It
+marks clearly the various stages of the restrictive process
+and we cannot do better than reproduce it here for the
+benefit of readers to whom it may prove novel.</p>
+
+<p>“Prior to the statute of 1676, any act done on Sunday,
+except in proceedings of courts, was of the same binding
+force as if performed on any other day. Parliament sat on
+that day, for in the reign of Edward I., in 1278 and 1305,
+three statutes were made on Sunday. Nor did the first
+restraining laws make any distinction between Sundays and
+other holy days. Thus the statute of 28 Edward III., Cap.
+14, in 1357, says: “Shewing of wools (<i>i. e.</i>, by merchants)
+shall be made at the staple every day in the week except
+the Sunday and solemn feasts of the year.” No further
+enactment was made touching the matter in question for
+nearly 100 years; but in 1448 was passed the act of 27
+Henry VI., Cap. 5, entitled, “Certain days wherein fairs
+and markets ought not to be kept,” which sets forth that
+“The King hath ordained that all manner of fairs and
+markets in said principal feasts (of Ascension, Corpus
+Christi, Assumption, and All Saints) and Sundays and
+Good Friday shall clearly cease from all shewing of any
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_159">[159]</span>goods or merchandises (necessary victuals only except);”
+but in recognition of the fact that there had previously
+been no such restriction, it is provided that “Nevertheless,
+of his special grace (the King) granted to them power
+which of old time had no day to hold their fair or market,
+but only upon the festival days aforesaid, to hold the same
+authority and strength of his old grant within three days
+next before said feasts or next after.”</p>
+
+<p>The act of 4, Edward IV., Cap. 7, in 1464, seems to
+have been occasioned by some special irritation from the
+dishonesty of leather-dressers and shoemakers; for, after
+sundry stringent provisions applying to them generally, it
+is provided that “No person, cordwainer or cobbler, within
+the City of London * * * upon any Sunday in the
+year, or in the feasts of the Nativity or Ascension of our
+Lord, or in the feast of Corpus Christi, shall sell, or command,
+or do to be sold, any shoes, huseaus, or galoches, or
+upon the Sunday, or any of said feasts, shall set or put
+upon the feet or legs of any person, any shoes, huseaus, or
+galoches.” This statute was repealed in 1522, but re-enacted,
+in part, in 1604.</p>
+
+<p>In 1552 was passed “An act for keeping holy days and
+feasting days” (5 and 6 Edw. IV., Cap. 2), the preamble
+of which is an instructive example of the pains taken by all
+Christians, Catholic and Protestant, prior to the seventeenth
+century, to deny that Sunday or any other holy or feast
+day, possessed of itself any sacredness or any higher claim
+to observance than that of convenience for the purpose of
+uniformity in worship. It ran thus: “For as much as at
+all times men be not so mindful to laud and praise God
+* * * as their bounden duty doth require; therefore, to
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_160">[160]</span>call men to remembrance of their duty and help their infirmity,
+it hath been wholesomely provided that there shall
+be some certain times and days appointed wherein the
+Christian should cease from all kinds of labors; * * *
+neither is it to be thought that there is any certain time
+or definite number of days prescribed in Holy Scripture,
+but that the appointment, both of time and also of the
+number of the days, is left by the authority of God’s word
+to the liberty of Christ’s Church to be determined and
+assigned orderly in every country by the discretion of the
+rulers and ministers thereof, as they shall judge most
+expedient for the true setting forth of God’s glory and the
+edification of their people; be it therefore enacted, that all
+the days hereafter mentioned (to wit: Sundays, the Feast
+of the Circumcision, and twenty-two other feast days that
+are named, and Mondays and Tuesdays in Easter Week and
+Whitsun Week) shall be kept and commanded to be kept
+holy days, and none other.” It was further provided,
+“That it shall be lawful to every husbandman, laborer,
+fisherman, * * * upon the holy days aforesaid, in harvest,
+or at any other time of the year when necessity shall
+require, to labor, ride, fish, or work any kind of work
+at their free wills and pleasure.” This Protestant law was
+repealed the next year by the Catholic government of Mary,
+and restored in 1604, in the first year of James I. It is
+strikingly similiar to the decree of Constantine the Great,
+made in the year 321: “Let all Judges and people of the
+town rest, and all the various trades be suspended, on the
+venerable day of the sun. Those who live in the country,
+however, may freely and without fault attend to the cultivation
+of their fields * * * lest, with the loss of favorable
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_161">[161]</span>opportunity, the commodities offered by Divine Providence
+should be destroyed.”</p>
+
+<p>In 1558 (1 Eliz., Cap. 2, Sec. 14,) was passed the first
+law requiring attendance upon public worship “upon every
+Sunday, and other days ordained and used to be kept as
+holy days,” upon pain of church censure and a fine of
+twelvepence.</p>
+
+<p>The English Puritans of the time of James I., were the
+first to impose the name and character of the Jewish Sabbath
+upon the first day of the week, and those who came to
+America brought the name and the idea with them. To
+that seventeenth-century influence, and not to any scriptural
+or ecclesiastical teaching of any earlier time, are we indebted
+for sermons on Sunday observance. The doctrine held on
+that subject by most evangelical Christians is not yet three
+hundred years old.</p>
+
+<p>In 1625 was passed a law (1 Car. I., Cap. 1,) that
+“There should be no meeting, assemblies, or concourse of
+people out of their own parishes on the Lord’s day, for any
+sports or pastimes whatsoever; nor any bear-baiting, bull-baiting,
+interludes, common plays, or other unlawful exercises
+or pastimes used by any persons within their own
+parishes.” “<i>This statute</i>,” says Blackstone, “<i>does not prohibit,
+but rather impliedly allows any innocent recreation or
+amusement within their respective parishes, even on the Lord’s
+day, after Divine service is over;</i>” <em>and, in point of fact,
+both Charles I. and his father before him issued proclamations
+encouraging such amusements after Divine service.</em></p>
+
+<p>In 1676 was enacted the well known “Lord’s Day act,”
+of 29 Car. II., Cap. 7, which prohibits generally all work,
+labor, and business on Sunday, except works of necessity
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_162">[162]</span>and charity, and which, with more or less modification,
+forms the basis of all Sunday laws now extant in the United
+States. Exceptions to this law in favor of hackney coachmen,
+fishwomen, and chairmen, were enacted in 1694, 1699,
+and 1710, and a clause prohibiting bird hunting was subsequently
+added, but it remained in substance until alterations
+and repeals of English laws ceased to have any force
+in this country.”</p>
+
+<p>As an historical matter the question is not very abstruse
+and the truth is well enough known to scholars everywhere;
+should there not then be charity for honest convictions?</p>
+
+<p>In many cases the practice for years has been tolerably
+liberal while all the time the old and stringent puritanical
+Sunday laws of 1702 were retained on the statute books
+liable to be enforced whenever a minority should choose to
+demand their revival.</p>

+
+<p>Such cases have recently been seen in many places in
+this and other states, but particularly so in Newark, N. J.,
+where the enforcement of such an old act forbidding the
+sale of beer and other beverages on Sunday caused a reaction
+of unexpected violence, and very characteristic of the
+profound change that has already taken place in the popular
+conception of the day. The circumstances in brief
+were as follows: A considerable number of prohibitionists
+had organized under the name of the Law and Order
+Association for the purpose of enforcing the Sunday
+law and preventing the licensing of bar rooms. Numerous
+prosecutions were made and carried through to conviction
+under the old state law after having failed in the city police
+courts. Thereupon the Citizens’ Protective Association
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_163">[163]</span>was formed and in September, 1879, a demonstration was
+made by a great procession, and the adoption of resolutions
+calling for a repeal of the law which, after lying idle so
+long, had suddenly been revived to the great injury of an
+established business, and with manifest injustice to a large
+number of peaceable citizens who conceived their rights to
+be interfered with, inasmuch as a law long inoperative must
+practically be regarded as a dead letter and ignored by those
+who, if they had supposed it to possess vital power, would
+have removed from its jurisdiction or taken pains never to
+come within it. The procession numbered ten or twelve
+thousand and great enthusiasm was displayed, not only in
+the ranks, but by residents all along the line of march. The
+matter was evidently one which took a deep hold on the
+feelings of the community and none the less because of a
+common feeling that they had been unfairly treated by the
+appeal to a law not in harmony with the spirit of the times
+or of abstract justice. A crowd is very apt to be wrong
+and it is easy to stir up the people, but here the crowd had
+more reason on its side than it was itself aware of, reason
+founded on history, and making the law that had been enforced
+an unwarrantable attack on personal liberty. They
+felt that it was so, though few probably would have been able
+to give a clear explanation of the feeling or trace its justification
+by the facts. As for enthusiasm, we are told that
+it needed no stimulus and can easily believe it to have been
+so, for aside from the more abstract and philosophical justice
+of their complaint, there was the immediate smart felt
+by men who lose the day of recreation to which they have
+looked forward all the week, or find that they are to suffer
+a pecuniary loss and that their occupation is not only
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_164">[164]</span>checked but stigmatized. The matter made a great excitement
+and called out many bitter paragraphs on both sides,
+but chiefly among the more narrow-minded and pharisaical
+of so-called religious press. We have no space or disposition
+to go into the details of their criticism, even for the
+sake of illustrating how far misrepresentation and innuendo
+may be made to stand in place of careful statement and
+sound argument. The case has been spoken of because it
+is in some sense typical, because it represents the course of
+public thought and feeling, and the change which even
+within two or three generations has come over the rigid
+enactments of puritan early settlers. These puritans did
+much good but it was all tempered and shadowed by an
+austere severity that has no merit in itself and that crushes
+out much the better part of life and obscures many a truth
+that in itself is clear as noonday. The mind of the people
+has changed. It is time that the law should be changed
+also. The <cite>Christian Union</cite> has said, “The sooner the
+issue is made in Chicago between a whole sabbath and
+none at all, the sooner the Christian element in the community
+will win the victory it will deserve. Half a sabbath
+is hardly worth fighting for.” We say that the best
+rule for observing the day is that which gives the greatest
+amount of harmless freedom and enjoyment to the greatest
+number, each according to his own judgment and conscience.
+Our foreign element is very large and has its own
+beliefs and traditions, as dear and as implicitly held as
+those of any one whose training and practice have been
+after the strictest sabbatarian pattern.</p>
+
+<p>We have attempted here no argument, but simply given
+some cardinal facts, and now leave the matter in the hope
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_165">[165]</span>that those who dissent will at least respect honest utterance
+and not allow their objections on this one point to prejudice
+them against our discussion of the value of malt beverages
+as aids to genuine temperance and useful friends to man.</p>
+
+<p>We close as we began, with the words which seem to us
+to indicate the only practical road to real temperance, and
+record again our motto</p>

+<p>It will be seen from the above table that Germany, exclusive
+of German Austria, brews the enormous quantity
+of 885,646,782 gallons of beer, or about 20.7 to each individual
+in a population of 42,727,360. Most of this is consumed
+at home, and great quantities are imported from
+Christiana, Norway, and Copenhagen, Denmark, while ale
+and porter are largely brought from England.</p>
+
+<p>It is worthy of notice that Bavaria, which has been
+known for centuries as the cradle of men of arts and sciences,
+stands at the head of the list of beer producing countries.
+With a population of only about five millions, it
+brews three hundred and twenty-nine million gallons or
+65.5 gallons to every individual; and next in rank is the
+little kingdom of Wurtemberg, the native state of the great
+Schiller. Munich, the capital of Bavaria is especially celebrated
+for the long array of men of arts, letters and science
+who have either been born there or adopted it as a residence.
+But it is, at the same time, the greatest beer-drinking
+city in the world. It produced in the year 1876 no less
+than 1,198,951 hectoliters = 31,772,201 gallons, and its actual
+home consumption in that year was 956,455 hectoliters
+= 25,346,057 gallons, which, in a population of 198,000,
+gives 128 gallons a year for every individual, costing in all
+$6,216,955, or about $31 per head. The amount paid for
+beer is less by $1,363,800 than the amount paid for house
+rent. In the years 1877 and 1878 the amount paid for
+beer fell off, but for the current year (1879) it will, according
+to statistics thus far received, be larger than ever before.
+The taxes for the municipal government and city taxes are
+less than a tenth of the amount expended for beer—and yet
+there is not a more orderly and well behaved city in the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_169">[169]</span>world than this same Munich. All this is indirect evidence
+of great importance as to the social and intellectual effect
+that may be expected to follow a free and even a very large
+use of beer.</p>
+
+<p>Vienna stands in a similar category though it offers a less
+striking illustration of the case than Munich does. It has,
+however, one brewer whose operations are extensive enough
+to deserve special mention. This is the well-known Anton
+Dreher, whose business, begun at Schwechat in 1836, now
+comprises large establishments in four Austrian cities, with
+an annual product of 500,000 barrels, paying a government
+tax of $750,000.00 or more. The business employs combined
+water and steam engines of 100 horse power, 400
+brewers, 200 teamsters and common laborers, 150 horses,
+and no less than 250 draught oxen.</p>
+
+<p>Karlsruhe, the capital of Baden is also an important
+brewing city. Its product is 4,884,350 gallons, and of this
+amount something over one million gallons is contributed
+by the Albert Printz brewery alone.</p>
+
+<p>It is, however, useless to attempt any mention of the
+cities or districts that are distinguished for the quantity or
+quality of their beer. We can only say that they are very
+numerous, and add that their character is such as to
+ <ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: coroborate" id="coroborate">corroborate</ins>
+all that has been said in this book touching the

+
+<p>The brewery of modern times is very different from anything
+conceived of one or two hundred years ago. Not
+merely its extent but all its appliances are characteristic of
+this busy, progressive age, that knows how to plant money
+in extensive outfits and supervision, in order that it may
+yield a greater return, just as seeds put in rich earth and
+carefully tended during growth give larger harvests of better
+quality than were ever looked for in the old hap-hazard,
+starving plan. We cannot mention one in fifty of those who
+deserve notice. Think, for instance, of the great brewery
+of M. T. Bass, at Burton on Trent, which produces about
+one million barrels a year; or those of Anton Dreher,
+turning out five hundred thousand barrels, and see if it
+is possible to attain such results except by modern processes
+and modern business energy. No house in the United
+States has yet reached so great a product, but more than
+one is on the direct way, and it is not only possible but
+probable that within fifty years the largest establishments
+and the finest beer will be found in this country. In the
+multitude of those who fairly deserve mention it seems
+almost invidious to select a few, but it has seemed best to
+give a brief account of some that, in one way or another,
+may be regarded as typical exponents of this department
+of American industry. Those mentioned are not always
+the largest or best known, but they represent different parts
+of the country and together form a tolerable epitome of the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_178">[178]</span>whole brewing business, with its larger and smaller breweries,
+old and new establishments, and various ways of procedure,
+the common feature being that all endeavor to
+produce a thoroughly good article, and trust to the merit of
+the product for success rather than to any temporary advantages
+that may be gained by cheapening their brew at
+the expense of its flavor or wholesomeness. This is the
+noticeable fact in the brewing trade at the present time.</p>
+
+
+<h3 id="lauer">HISTORICAL SKETCH OF HON. FREDERICK LAUER OF READING,
+PA.</h3>
+
+<p>The brewery of Mr. Frederick Lauer of Reading, Pa.,
+is not only among the oldest in the country, but has remained
+from the beginning in the hands of the Lauer family.
+It was established in 1823 at Womelsdorf, a few miles
+from Reading, by the father of the present proprietor, who
+had just arrived from Germany. In 1826 it was removed
+to Reading, and the business started on the same spot where
+it is now carried on. The elder Lauer was an indefatigable
+worker, and is said at this time to have taken no more than
+two or three hours regular sleep a day. In 1835 his son
+Frederick succeeded to the sole proprietorship of the brewery,
+and its progress from this time was very rapid. For
+several years ale and porter had been brewed, but no lager
+beer was made in the country until 1842. In the year 1844
+Mr. Lauer began to brew lager beer, and was thus one of
+the pioneers in this industry; and since that time ale, lager
+beer and porter have been produced constantly. The
+brewery is a model of neatness and convenience, perfect in
+every appointment and the special pride and pet of its
+owner, who would much rather lose a year’s profits than
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_179">[179]</span>tolerate dirt or disorder or the production of a poor beer.
+Mr. Lauer has not, however, been constantly occupied with
+his private business. For at least thirty years he has been
+one of the prominent men of the city of Reading; has held
+various important public positions, political and otherwise,
+and has done great service in securing equable legislation
+in matters affecting the brewing trade. A man of quick
+perception and untiring energy, he has again and again
+accomplished alone, or nearly alone, things that were considered
+almost impossible, and from whose attempt his associates
+recoiled. An instance in point is thus described in
+a recently published sketch of his life: “The way the
+tax was saved was as follows: Shortly before the adjournment
+of Congress, he (Mr. Lauer) received a letter apprising
+him that the Committee on Ways and Means were about
+advising an increase. He immediately telegraphed to the
+nearest members of the Brewers’ Committee to join him at
+Washington. They had an interview with the Committee
+of Ways and Means, but the Committee refused to make
+any modification in the bill, as it had already passed the
+first reading in the House. There were ten members of the
+Brewers’ Committee, nine of whom, after the interview,
+agreed to allow the fifty cents increase and make no further
+exertion in the matter. Mr. Lauer, the tenth, was not
+satisfied; and, after gaining the consent of the Committee,
+he called on a number of members of the House, and urged
+upon them the ruinous consequences to the brewing business
+which would follow the passage of the bill as reported.
+The same day, February 11, 1865, the bill came up in Committee
+of the Whole, when the desired modification was
+made by a vote of seventy-three to sixty-eight, and the
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_180">[180]</span>following week the bill came up for final passage, when the
+bill, as modified, was passed by a majority of four. The
+members from Kentucky who had voted against the modification
+in the first place, voted for the bill when it came up
+on the third reading, they having been influenced through
+the exertions of Mr. Lauer. Immediately after its passage,
+Thad. Stevens, chairman on the Ways and Means, jumped
+up and exclaimed, ‘That d—d Lauer did it.’”</p>
+
+<p>This is only one of many instances in which Mr. Lauer’s
+efforts have been of the greatest value to brewers at large
+and incidentally to the whole country. He was the first
+president of the United States Brewers’ Association, and
+has more than once been able in time of scarcity to secure
+such shipments of malt or hops from foreign countries as to
+relieve the distress and materially reduce the inflated price
+of these articles.</p>
+
+
+<h3 id="schlitz">THE JOSEPH SCHLITZ BREWING CO., MILWAUKEE, WIS.
+</h3>
+<p>In the year 1849 Mr. August Krug built a small brewery
+at Milwaukee on Chestnut street, between 4th and 5th
+streets, and the year after he added vaults of a capacity of
+150 barrels, situated on the corner of 3d and Walnut streets.
+His sale was about 250 barrels. From this small beginning
+there developed one of the largest breweries in the country.</p>
+
+<p>Mr. Krug died in 1856, and Mr. Joseph Schlitz who had
+come to Milwaukee during the previous year took the management
+of the business which at first increased only moderately
+although managed with skill and energy. In the year
+1865 the sales were 4,400 barrels. Five years later he began
+the erection of the present brewery on the corner of 3d and
+Walnut streets, the same place where the original vaults
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_181">[181]</span>had been situated. The greater part of the present buildings
+were completed within two years, and the sales for
+1871 amounted to 12,283 barrels. The period of rapid development
+had now been reached, and the advance up to
+the present time has been remarkable as may be seen from
+the following table of the yearly sales, beginning with the
+year 1870.</p>

+
+
+<p>In 1874 the business was made into a stock company
+under the title “Joseph Schlitz Brewing Company,” with
+Mr. Schlitz as president, the secretary and superintendent
+being respectively, Mr. August Uihlein and Mr. Henry
+Uihlein. Being thus partially relieved of the immediate
+cares of business Mr. Schlitz in the following year sailed
+for Germany to visit his native home of Mayence. The
+vessel was the Schiller, which, as all readers must remember,
+was wrecked on the Scilly Islands, May 7, 1875, and
+Mr. Schlitz was one of the many victims of that disaster. In
+these circumstances the company organization was probably
+a fortunate circumstance for the business. The death of a
+sole proprietor or even a sole nominal proprietor is apt to
+derange a business, no matter how capable the successor
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_182">[182]</span>may be, and this difficulty is almost avoided in the case of
+an established company. The present management is as
+follows:</p>
+
+<p>President, Henry Uihlein; secretary, August Uihlein;
+superintendent, Alfred Uihlein. The brewery in its present
+form occupies two whole squares, and still larger
+<ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: accomodations" id="accomod"> accommodations </ins>may be needed at no distant day. There is
+a new ice-house 100 × 124 feet, four stories high, and with
+a twenty-four foot basement. The cellars have a capacity
+of 25,000 barrels; the whole storage capacity is 70,000 barrels,
+and the brewery is already fitted for the production of
+200,000 barrels a year. There is a large coopering establishment
+and the gathering of ice alone occupies 300 men
+and 90 teams for about twenty days every year. The beer
+is sent all over the United States and to Brazil, Central
+America and Mexico, in both barrels and bottles. About
+one million bottles were sold in 1877, and in the succeeding
+year the amount was more than two millions. The
+bottling department alone occupies a building 46 × 150 feet,
+with basement, and fitted with all conveniences for the
+work.</p>
+
+<p>The analysis of this beer gives the following result for the
+percentage of alcohol: ordinary lager beer 4.5 volumetrically,
+and 5.6 by weight. The bottled lager beer shows as
+a result of four analyses within six months, six per cent. of
+alcohol volumetrically, and 4.8 by weight. This is certainly
+an excellent showing, and calculated to enhance the reputation
+of any brewery.</p>
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_183">[183]</span></p>
+
+<h3 id="krueger">THE BREWERY OF MR. GOTTFRIED KRUEGER, NEWARK,
+N. J.</h3>
+
+<p>The brewery now owned by Mr. Gottfried Krueger was
+founded in 1851 by Louis Adam and J. Braun, the latter of
+whom died before the buildings were completed. Mr.
+Adam at once formed a partnership with John Laible under
+the firm name of Laible &amp; Adam, and pushed the work
+so well that within the year brewing was commenced, and
+a sale of 1,200 barrels for the first twelve months secured.</p>
+
+<p>The property then consisted of six city lots, a small frame
+house partly used as a saloon, a one-story frame brewery
+thirty feet square, a stable for two horses and vaults for
+500 barrels of beer. The brewing capacity was about
+twenty barrels.</p>
+
+<p>In 1852 Mr. Gottfried Krueger, the present proprietor,
+came to this country, and being a relative of Mr. Laible entered
+the brewery as an apprentice. Here he remained
+until Messrs. Laible and Adam dissolved partnership in
+1855, Mr. Laible building a new brewery and Mr. Adam
+continuing the old business. Mr. Krueger accompanied
+Mr. Laible and became foreman in the establishment where
+he remained until 1865 when in conjunction with Mr. Gottlieb
+Hill he bought the old brewery of Louis Adam and
+commenced business under the firm name of Hill &amp; Krueger.
+During the interval a new brewery had been added and a
+new stable for six horses, while the sale had increased to
+4,000 barrels and the brewing capacity to fifty barrels.
+This advance, however, was destined to be greatly surpassed
+by that made under the new management. The
+first step was the building of two new vaults of a capacity
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_184">[184]</span>of 5,000 barrels. This together with numerous minor improvements
+was accomplished during the first year, and
+within the same time the sale of beer was doubled. The
+years next succeeding saw a rapid development. In 1866
+the firm built a new three-story brick malt and store-house;
+in 1876 a large building for fermenting rooms; in 1868
+stables for twenty horses; in 1869 an ice-house of 4,000
+barrels capacity, and also vaults for 2,000 barrels. The result
+fully justified these preparations for an enlarged business
+for the sale increased steadily year by year and in 1875
+amounted to 25,000 barrels.</p>
+
+<p>At this time Mr. Hill was compelled by the state of his
+health to retire from business, and on the 16th of February,
+1875, Mr. Krueger became the sole owner of the property
+which then covered the entire block. Adding in 1878 a
+model office building and in 1879 new stables for forty-five
+horses, he has now one of the finest breweries in the State.
+The sale for the current year will be over 40,000 barrels.</p>
+
+<p>In explanation of the cut we may add that the malt and
+brew-houses are situated on Belmont avenue, the office and
+stables on West Kinney street, the ice-house on Charlton
+street, and the yards etc., on Montgomery street.</p>
+
+<p>Every one connected with the establishment, from Mr.
+Krueger down, is thoroughly fit for his duties and zealous
+in their discharge. The management is by the proprietor
+himself, ably seconded by Mr. Theodore C. W. Eggerking
+who has been long and successfully connected with the
+business.</p>

+
+<p>There is some difference of opinion as to the propriety of publishing
+such information as the annual product of the various breweries in the
+country, and it therefore seems proper to explain why it has been decided
+to give the figures in these pages, and how the information has
+been obtained.</p>
+
+<p>For some time the particulars were furnished to certain parties in
+Chicago and New York, by a clerk in the Internal Revenue Department
+at Washington. In this there was probably an injustice, for what
+is demanded by the law cannot be withheld by the brewer, and both
+analogy and general reasoning indicate that this forced information
+should be considered as confidential, and not exposed to the comment
+of indifferent persons or business rivals.</p>

+the preparation and publication of tabulated statements of brewers’
+sales, and asking if, in my opinion, the brewers of the United States
+desire that such tabulated statements be prepared by the Internal Revenue
+Bureau—I beg to state, that I have no data which would enable
+me to answer your question definitely. Many brewers, undoubtedly,
+feel indifferent in the matter; some may favor the publication, and
+others are opposed to it. They argue that there is no parallel case
+in any other branch of trade; that individual business affairs should
+not be thus made public; that the publication of individual sales leads
+to undue competition; and that these lists are a bone of bitter contention
+between the publishers.</p>
+
+<p>If the inquiry has been addressed to me with reference to the future
+action of the Department, I beg leave to suggest that the brewers’
+wishes can be best ascertained at their next yearly meeting, in June,
+and I would respectfully ask you to delay action in the matter till then.</p>

+
+<p>On the other hand, while it is certain that many brewers are glad to
+have their product extensively stated, it is at least probable that very
+few have any real objection. In order to test the question we sent
+a printed form of inquiry, as to production, to all the brewers in
+the country. A large majority furnished the desired information,
+and as many others doubtless failed to answer simply through
+negligence or indifference, it seemed certain that the number of objectors
+was so small that this list might be published with propriety and
+to the satisfaction of far the larger part of those interested. It is to be
+noticed that this is a very different thing from printing enforced statements,
+without a shadow of authority from the brewers themselves.
+In this book the figures are generally furnished by the brewers and for
+this very purpose. Where no reply has been received, the product has
+been stated according to the best testimony that could be obtained, and
+the total result is certainly more accurate than any yet published.
+This is not because the government returns were incorrect, but because
+of carelessness in transcription, or errors of the types, or both.
+Whatever the cause, so many errors have been discovered in the so-called
+official lists of those who obtained their information through
+Washington, as to greatly impair the value of those tables, and create
+much dissatisfaction among those who find an erroneous impression of
+their business thus
+<ins class="corr" title="Transcriber's Note&mdash;original text: dissemminated" id="dissem"> disseminated </ins>
+ through the country. Without claiming
+that our own are absolutely free from error, we are prepared to
+maintain their substantial correctness and their superiority to any yet
+offered to the public. The product here shown is greater than that
+stated earlier in this book. The returns on which that statement was
+made seem to have been incomplete at the time of publication, unless
+the fault lies in the transfer of figures or in the footings, a kind of defect
+from which few public documents of a statistical character are
+wholly free. The number of breweries here given is less than the
+former statement, owing to the omission of a considerable number of
+the smaller establishments, concerning which no satisfactory information
+could be obtained, and the further omission of those whose owners
+<span class="pagenum" id="Page_188">[188]</span>were known to object to a publication of their business. The total
+product of all so left out is known to be inconsiderable, though it cannot
+be exactly ascertained.</p>
+
+<p>Those most apt to find fault with a public statement of the amount
+of their business are the smaller brewers, who sometimes fear that
+their business will suffer if it is known that they dispose of less beer
+than some rival. To such it may be said that a good business need not
+be a large one. There are plenty of men in the country who work on a
+comparatively small scale, and yet would not be induced to extend
+their operations. They make enough, as it is, to satisfy their wants,
+and they are not loaded down by the cares that attend a struggle to sell
+as much as possible. They fear no injury because their sale is not so
+large as that of some one else, and they are perfectly in the right, as
+experience shows. Still again, there are many small breweries to-day,
+that will be great fifteen or twenty years from now. We have shown
+in Appendix C something of the possibilities of sudden development
+in this business, and with the increasing taste for beer these opportunities
+will be better than ever. It is not against a brewery that it is
+small. Its product may be of the first quality, and it may be small
+simply because the owner does not care to have it large.</p>
+
+<p>Other considerations might be adduced, but it seems as if enough
+had been said to justify the printing of statistics prepared as are those
+here furnished, especially as they must be interesting to every one who
+makes a study of the beer question and wants as much and as varied
+information as he can obtain.</p>
