SEAFORTH, Friday, April, 16, 1920. THREE WORDS THAT LOST A - PRESIDENCY In the United States the questi of prohibition is more bitterly debat in public than in Canada, althou private controversies may be no mo wrathful. The reason is that ti American 'wind has not_ yet be tempered to the shorn lamb, and al that the leading newspapers belie that the constitutional amendment w put through without the masses the people being consulted. Gove nor Edwards, of New Jersey, a tot abstainer, is now a candidate for Presidential nomination on the ant prohibition- plank. The - fiercene of the controversy was added to few days ago when William H. A derson'State Superintendent of • t N ew York Anti -Saloon Leagu 'made a remark which seemed to i dicate his opinion that the Rom Catholic Church was hostile to pr hibition or, at the best, lukewar toward it. • He was immediate token to task by the Archbishop New* -2 ork, and later explained th he meant that "some Catholic were opposedto prohibition. The r mark, however, was a grave polit cal mistake, and has probably ad ed to the anti -prohibitionist fore many thouTands of Roman Cat olics. Indeed, the New York Worl which probably never will becon reconciled to either prohibition Anderson, believes the indiscretio of his anti-Catholic speech is coi parable to that of Rev. Samu Dickenson Burchard, of "Ruin, R manism and Rebellion" fame. Th tempting alliteration on the part a zealous Presbyterian minister lo James G. Blaine, the Presidency i 1884, and is recalled as one of th most costly little speeches in Am erican history. The candidates fo the 1884 election were Grover Clev land and James G. plaine. The cam paign had been a stirring one, an few prophets were willing to hazar endowed opinions as to the outcom As the event showed, if Blaine ha won in New York he would hay won the Presidency, and as he fai ed in New York by only 1,149 vote it is clear that the reluctant pro phets were right. Within a week o the close of the campaignM Blaine was in New York, staying a the Fifth Avenue Hotel, when a de legation of ministers of the gospe asked to be permitted to wait upo him. A cordial welcome was ex telided, and, headed by Rev. Dr Burchard, manyi men of the clot presented themselves. Dr. Burchard was a man of sev- enty-two. He had been a temper- ance lecturer before entering the ministry and at the time was pastor of the Murray Hill • Presbyterian Church. These were his fatal words of welcome: - on 'ed gh re en so ve as of r - al a ss a e e, an n- liy of at e - es d- h - or 11 el 0 - is o - is of st n e r e - e. d e s, f r. t n1 h The Salvation Army - "We are very happy to welcome you to this circle. You see here a representation of all the denomina- tions of this city. You see the large number that are' represented. We are your friends, Mr. Blaine. Not- withstanding all the calumnies that have been waged in the papas against you, we stand by your We expect to vote for you next Tues- day. 'We have a higher expectation, which is that you will be the Prosi- dent of the United States, and that you will do honor to your name, to the United States and to the high of- fice that you_will occupy. We are Republicans, and don't propose to leave our party and identify our- selves with the party whose ante- cedents have been Rum, Romanism and Rebellion. We are loyal to our flag; we are loyal to you." In his reply Mr. Blaine made no reference to the charge that the De- mocratic party was the party of "Rum, Romanism and Rebellion." Maybe he was like the woman- - in the story who never heard what was said to her because she was so busy in thinking what she would say back. The Associated Press reporter. who heard the speech says in his reminiscences published a few years ago, that Mr. Blaine asked him that night not to report the indiscretion of Dr. Burchard, but that rhe either refused or explained that his story had gone. The fat was in the fire. Mr. Blaine no doubt -tardily explain- ed that he had no sympathy with words which would seem to identify Roman. Catholics with rum and re- bellion. He well could do this be- cause although he was a Protestant his mother was an Irish Roman Catholic, and through his public career he had always shown particu- lar interest in the. Irish. Neverthe- less, it was the opinion of contem- porary observers that Dr. Burchard's ill-timed flash of alliteration cost the election. In a letter to a friend after the voting Mr. Blaine said: "I feel quite serene over the result. As the Lord sent us an ass in the shape of a preacher and a rainstorm to lessen our vote in New York, 1 am disposed to feel resigned to the dispensation of defeat which flowed to us through these agencies." Dr. Burch- ard bitterly repented, and said that his words were unpremeditated and unfortunate. He maintained, as other men in like case maintain, that he was misunderstood. What he meant was that the Democratic party had sought unworthily to use the Roman Catholic Church, that it had not frOwned portentously enough on the rebellion, and that it had not with sufficient indignation denounced rum. Of course, when a man tries to 14 epigrammatic he cannot run in a lot of explanations. For one person who heard and be- lieved Blaine's disavowal and Bur - chard's elucidation, a hundred voted against Blaine for Burchard's speech. So the Anti -Saloon Leitgue likewise will have to carry on under the impu- tation of having been discourteous or " unjust to the Roman Catholic Church. 308 CITADELS AND INSTITUTIONS IN THIS TERRITORY. -USE THEM!
