"DEMON RUM" A Bibliography of Publications about LIQUOR AND NEW JERSEY 1779-1932 Mostly Controversial Publications Relating to the Liquor Problem temperance addresses, tracts, reports, liquor laws, etc. By DONALD A RLEIGH S INCLAIR NEW BRUNSWICK 1996 RUTGERS SPECIAL COLLECTIONS AND UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES FAM ADDIS MAY (THOMPSON) SINCLAIR 1880-1974 long-time member of the W. C. T. U. INTRODUCTION THIS BIBLIOGRAPHY is a record of 449 publications which reflect and define New Jersey's involvement with liquor. In America and elsewhere, alcohol as a drinkable has been of social, economic, medical, and moral interest for generations. During the 19th and early 20th centuries there was much agitation against it, as well as some effort in its defense. The subject of temperance, and total abstinence, was belabored frequently in sermons and lay addresses which sometimes invoked the Bible's authority, pro or con. Many organizations were formed to promote temperance, liquor control, treatment of "inebriates" and, increasingly, prohi- bition. Earliest of these in New Jersey apparently was the Sober Society (1807) of Allentown. Statewide were the New Jersey State Temperance Society (1834) and New Jersey State Temperance Al- liance (1871). There were also state and local affiliates of several national organizations, such as the Sons of Temperance (1846), International Organization of Good Templars (1867), Daughters of Temperance (1840's), and of course the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (1874), which still has a modest existence. Prohibition, as a solution to the liquor problem, was pro- moted vigorously by the Anti-Saloon League of New Jersey, along with church groups and the various temperance societies. Op- posing prohibition were speeches or writings of some prominent Jerseymen, including Dwight W. Morrow, Hiram Maxim, former governors (Griggs, Edwards, Edge, and Stokes), even a few cler- gymen. Also in opposition were many publications of the Manu- facturers and Merchants Association of New Jersey—which was probably a creation of the Newark brewers. During the brief existence of national Prohibition, 1919- 1933, the no-liquor laws were widely violated in New Jersey. De- ii spite conscientious efforts by a few agencies to enforce them, New Jersey was regularly known as a "wet" state. Police and pol- iticians were often corrupt or indifferent, and the general popu- lation was more or less indifferent as well. With little effort at concealment, "speakeasies" operated in large numbers, and rum- runners regularly unloaded their cargos from ships along the Jer- sey shore. This compilation is the product of extensive searching in a dozen well-equipped libraries* and a number of other sources. While the publications described here are both representative and numerous, further such items doubtless exist. It has not been possible to visit all the libraries in the state, and (with a few shining exceptions) mail inquiries addressed to some of them have not been productive. Most have not been answered at all.

A PERSONAL DETAIL: The compiler has a special interest in, perhaps affin- ity for, this subject. He was born 1916 in Kansas, where prohibition had existed more or less successfully for thirty-some years, of parents and grandparents who were firm temperance supporters. Both grandfathers, one-time drinkers, had been converted to the cause by the example, and gentle nudging, of their wives. The Pennsylvania father of one is said to have become an excessive drinker following the early death of his wife, and to have shortened his life thereby. He only lived to be 70 but his son, my temperate grandfather, was a sturdy fellow who died reluc- tantly at 98. A consequence of abstemious living, no doubt.

  • Drink and the Victorians
    DRINK AND THE VICTORIANS A HISTORY OF THE BRITISH TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT PAGING NOTE: Pamphlets, journals, and periodicals are paged using the number of the item on the list below, and the call number 71-03051. Books are cataloged individually – get author/title info below, and search SearchWorks for online record and call number. BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE This collection has been formed by the amalgamation of two smaller but important collections. The larger part, probably about three-quarters of the whole, was formed by William Hoyle of Claremont, Bury, near Manchester. The other part was formerly in the Joseph Livesey Library, Sheffield, and many of the pamphlets carry that library stamp. The catalogue has three main elements: pamphlets and tracts; books, including a section of contemporary biography; and newspapers, journals and conference reports. There are around 1400 separately published pamphlets and tracts but a series of tracts, or part of a series, has usually been catalogued as one item. The Hoyle collection of pamphlets, is bound in 24 volumes, mostly half black roan, many with his ownership stamp. All the pieces from the Joseph Livesey Library are disbound; so that any item described as "disbound" may be assumed to be from the Livesey collection and all the others, for which a volume and item number are given, from Hoyle's bound collection. INTRODUCTION By Brian Harrison Fellow and Tutor in Modern History and Politics, Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Anyone keen to understand the Victorians can hardly do better than devour Joseph Livesey's Staunch Teetotaler (458) or J.G. Shaw's Life of William Gregson.

  • Christianity and Vegetarianism 1809 – 2009
    EDEN’S DIET: CHRISTIANITY AND VEGETARIANISM 1809 – 2009 by SAMANTHA JANE CALVERT A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Theology and Religion School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham June 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The vegetarian teachings of the Salvation Army, Quakers, the Seventh Day Adventists and other Christian groups have been largely neglected by academics. This study takes a prosopographical approach to the development of modern Christian vegetarianism across a number of Christian vegetarian sects, and some more mainstream traditions, over a period of two centuries. The method allows for important points of similarity and difference to be noted among these groups’ founders and members. This research contributes particularly to radical Christian groups’ place in the vegetarian movement’s modern history. This study demonstrates how and why Christian vegetarianism developed in the nineteenth century and to what extent it influenced the secular vegetarian movement and wider society. It contextualizes nineteenth-century Christian vegetarianism in the wider movement of temperance, and considers why vegetarianism never made inroads into mainstream churches in the way that the temperance movement did.

  • Temperance JRF Drugs and Alcohol Research Programme
    Temperance Its history and impact on current and future alcohol policy Virginia Berridge This report examines the history of temperance, and how it can inform alcohol policy in the present and future. Published at a time when alcohol consumption has occasioned much public and media debate, the report relates the past to the present by examining the culture of drinking, and how it could be changed. In the past, temperance helped to create a ‘respectable working class’ and an ethos which would now be called ‘ social capital’. The report explores whether this culture can be brought up to date. It also discusses the role of the media,of pressure groups and of local government, the prominence given to women’s’ drinking, the potential for religious influence in a multi cultural society, health messages about alcohol, and alliances between medicine, public health and the police. The report also reviews the political possibilities for alcohol. For the first time for many years alcohol is a political issue, as was temperance. The report looks at whether those with an interest in health should work with the drinks industry, explores the role of international networks of influence and considers how the history of action against tobacco can inform future alcohol strategies. The study concludes that the history of temperance offers many options for the present. It will appeal to all interested in alcohol issues and the development of policy. JRF Drugs and alcohol research programme This series of publications examines the social dimensions of drug and alcohol use. It focuses on sensitive issues which are difficult for government-funded research to address, and on the implications for policy and practice.

This review surveys recent developments in the historiography of the politics of alcohol in twentieth-century Britain. The ‘drink question’ has undergone a set of tumultuous shifts, beginning with the decline of the temperance movement after the First World War, diminished conflict in the interwar and post-1945 periods, and the revived concerns over consumption and harm in the late-twentieth century.

  • Presidential Address
    Presidential Address THE POLITICS OF DRINK IN BRITAIN: ANGLO-AMERI- CAN PERSPECTIVES David M. Fahey * We meet today [April 29, 2000] in Westerville, Ohio, once the home of the Anti-Saloon League of America. Despite the concluding words, “of America,” the League rightly regarded itself as part of an international movement against alcoholic drink. After the Eighteenth Amendment had established national prohibition in the United States, the League enjoyed the leisure to organize the World League against alcoholism to sponsor a six-volume encyclopedia which surveyed the temperance movement throughout the world. When I explored the politics of drink in Britain in my first paper at an Ohio Academy conference, way back in 1970, my focus was narrowly British. In recent years I have decided that what happened in Britain and what didn’t happen in Britain makes the most sense when examined from Anglo-American perspectives. Probably the Anti-Saloon League would have agreed. What stand out are the similarities between Britain and the USA and their respective temperance movements. The United Kingdom was a country in which most people drank and a sizable minority did not. Let me correct this: most men drank and a sizable minority of men did not. Most teetotalers were women. The same could be said about the USA. Other than the United States, the UK was the most populous country with a large and well-organized temperance movement. In both countries teetotalers typically were evangelical Protestants. In both countries the temperance movement received support at least some of the time from “moderate” drinkers, especially middle-class drinkers.

  • Maps Made by Temperance the Legacy of ‘Local Option’ Controls on Alcohol in Melbourne
    Maps Made by Temperance The Legacy of ‘Local Option’ Controls on Alcohol in Melbourne Dr Elizabeth Jean Taylor RMIT Centre for Urban Research RMIT University Victoria, Australia [email protected] When Melbourne’s two ‘dry zones’ had compulsory ballots for restaurant and café liquor licences removed in 2015, news accounts surmised that “a hangover from the anti-alcohol movement of the 1920s had finally been relegated to the history books”. Yet the dry zones are chapters in a longer, ongoing story. The 1920 poll that created these anachronistic alcohol-free pockets culminated half a century of campaigns in Australia and beyond for local alcohol controls, prohibitions and vetos including ‘local option’. This paper looks specifically at temperance era local-level politics, and its legacies for cities like Melbourne today. The paper uses archival records and historical GIS techniques to show the workings and debates of Victoria’s early local option policies, and their corollaries statutory limits and dry zones – some of which survive residually today. Mapping the rise and spatial impacts of local policies on hotel numbers it shows the temperance movement of the late 19th century using nascent planning laws to legitimise local popular political power, and the control not only of alcohol but of land use and disorder more broadly. Drawing on the idea of genealogies of planning (Booth 2005) the paper argues local option history has legacies for, and parallels with, questions facing cities and planning today. As some temperance-era controls are being wound back, essentially identical policies are being reasserted. Keywords — Melbourne; dry-zone; alcohol; planning laws INTRODUCTION: HANGOVERS AND HISTORY BOOKS? In 2015, The Age reported on the “End to dry polls for Melbourne cafes and restaurants” (May 13th 2015).

  • Drink and Sobriety in England 1815–1872
    BRIAN HARRISON DRINK AND SOBRIETY IN ENGLAND 1815-1872 A CRITICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY * Social historians studying nineteenth-century England tend to concen- trate on the work-situation, and therefore on the conflicting interests of employer and employee. Dr John Vincent, however, has recently directed attention to the popular basis of nineteenth-century Liber- alism; this brings into the forefront quite different social alignments - especially when conflicts over religion and recreation are investigated. Popular radicalism "was the product of the leisure of Saturday night and Sunday morning, the pothouse and the chapel, not of the working week". This shift in interest brings the drink question to the fore, as several scholars have already realised: "it would be hard to say why historians have not rated the effect of strong drink as the sig- nificant factor in nineteenth-century history that it undoubtedly was", wrote Dr Kitson Clark recently; "its importance stands out from every page of the contemporary record". W. L. Burn thought it "arguable" that the Beer Act of 1830 was "more revolutionary in its immediate social consequences than any other of the reforming age".1 Still, no history of the drink problem in England has yet been published; the most recent study of the temperance movement was published as long ago as 1933 (No 241). Biographers of prominent temperance reformers - T. H. Green or H. E. Manning - pay little attention to a cause which, though now unfashionable, moulded their subjects' attitude to society. My own work in this area (Nos 242, 243, 542, 772, 828-9) by no means exhausts the field.
