I answer secondly, that experiments have taught us that this is not merely the safest and best, but the only efllectual course. Other principles of association have been tried, and found wanting. At the commencement of the temperance reformation, societies were formed up- on other principles. Comparatively speaking but little success attended their exertions. Indeed the very nature of the case will shew that no principle but that of total abstinence can be of avail as a principle of association....
Suppose, for example, that a society were formed upon the general principle of doing what we can for the sup- pression of intemperance, and we all join it. I may think it for my advantage to use half a pint of ardent spirits per day. You may consider it necessary to use a pint.
Our neighbor on account of his hard labor over the fire or in the water, may deem it of service to use his quart a day. We are neither of us ever seen disguised, we are temperate men, so called. As members of the society we have joined, we are urging our neighbors to become temperate.
