Temperance at the White House.
The quiet and uniform course pursued,
the common sense evinced and theecouo
imy practiced bj Mrs. Ilayes during the
four years occupancy of the White House
have not only given that gay and festive
dwelling a domestic and home like air,
i usually foreign to it, but secured for her
I the admiration of the best citizens of our
land.
Whereas she had enongh of the glitter
and tinsel matter in her dress, habits
manner &c., yet she carried out a credit
able economy, practised a simplicity and
evinced stamina and sterling worth, not
in vogue under that roof for many years.
But of all these shining qualities of head
and heart for which she is famous, there
is none standing in the prominence nor
shining with the lustre that does the
grand act of sweeping from the family
board on all occasions the wine cup and
champagne goblet. This was doubtless
the crowning act of her life at the White
House and though seemingly trifling and
inslgniflcaut it has set a worthy example
and marked an era in high life that wili
shine on, sending its benign and salutary
rays through generations to come.
Wholesale and retail dealers in the traftic
in that city, acknowledge the potency of
the act and confess a heavy falling off in
sale and consumption of fancy and XXX
brand goods, following her edict. The
"Department of the Table" was the ofli
cial position assigned her by the decision
of the Electoral Commission that declar
ed It. B. Hayes president, she holding
her oflice by virtue of intimate relations
to the President-elect. In this case no
appointment was required nor confirma
tion of Senate needed. She slid in with
out influence of Bosses or Rings and re
ceived her commission and with it, the
keys to the pantry, sideboard and wine
cellar and a general supcriutcudency of
the domestic arrangement of the mansion.
She was master of the situation and no
power of Congress could impeach nor su
percede her. If Rutherford wanted to
extend the courtesies of the day to call
ers, friends or the Cabinet by proffering
the customary glass, .a veto to such hos
pitable acts by Mrs. Hayes flashed through
his miud and ice water or lemonade was
immediately substituted.
"When a woman will she will,
And you can depend on it;
When she won't she won't,
And that is the end of it."
A fact well known by ourjehief magistrate
specially in the case of Nrs. 11. before
whose good sense and inflexible will he
respectfully bowed. But to resume this
article in a serions light, we say that this
noble act has not only won for her endur
ing fame but a worthy example was
set for her sex and incalculable good
done for our nation and the world. Yet
while we surround her head with a halo
of renown and praise, we have no reason
to doubt that her successor, Mrs Garfield
will exhibit and carry into practical use
the same commendable taste, tact and
.sense and occupy as desirable a stand in
the interest of temperance. The rumor
that she lias said she will not dictate the
bill of fare of her husband's dinners we
think has no foundation for we - fall to see
anything in her life or character to indi
cate a change of programme in the gen
eral routine of life at the Executive Man
sion as inaugurated by Mrs. Hayes and
we will guarrantee the adoption of some
temperance policy and an absence of
wine at the family board.
"Revolutions never go backwards" nor
will Mrs. Ilayes' temperance reform, and
in case any matron at that house ever try
to annul or discard her honorable exam
ple, vvc pity them for the shower of re
buke and censure that awaits them from
an indignant temperance element.
