French Anti-Alcoholic League Faces Suit

IN France there exists an “Anti-alcoholic League,” which appears to have been doing effective work in the cause of temperance reform. This is indicated by the fact that the “Chamber of Distillers” has brought suit in the Paris courts against the Anti-alcoholic League, to recover damages, on the ground that the agitation against alcohol has caused a falling off in the trade in intoxicants. It would be a queer court, verily, which would seriously consider a claim for damages of this sort.
