Is the beer traffic a great industry? That it has Invested in It forge sum of money we must admit, but that does not make it sn Industry. That many men are employed in Its manufacture sad sale does not make it sn Industry. A million men might be employed In testing down some of uur most valuable bulling, but that, would not be sn Industry; It wuuld simply be a work of destruction tbst would result in no real profit to the community. An Industry is one that yields profit to those engaged In It, and kives an equivalent to those who Invest In the articles produced by it. For Instance, tbe raising of cotton and the manufacture of cotton good is a great industry, snd its product give tu every customer who buy tbuse goods su equivalent for his money. Th the beer traffic yields a fortune to those engaged In muiifc!iir-1'i- g its products, no one will dltpute.
