Temperance debate stirs local letter and editorial reply
In a heated exchange, O Whirrmore defends aggressive temperance views and criticizes Whittemore for misquoting a prior piece. The newspaper counters, arguing equality under law for temperate and drunkard, warns against enforcing total abstinence as civil rule, and urges moral education and personal rights. The column ends with rural notes on agriculture and warm community hospitality.
