A h tlcr tn me from 11 jinle in the ('uni ts of Unit State says : "The hiw of W7 differs in im iiiiiteiiid feii tille fiom the former license 1.1WS, save that the fee is somewhat higher : ami, in l'hihuh lphiu city, the irriint imr of heeiihuH wih taken from im Kxcise Hoard nml put nt the iliscie tioll of the .Judges of the Courts, IIS it hfi loiitf been in the rest of the State.

The u untiiiK of licenses waH so vastly ovenlune as to caiiMe a re vulsion, and hence the iiumler has lieen materially reduced nmler the new law." 2. This same judge further says: "There is no merit in the Hih-Li-ectiM- feature of this law: first , he eiiuse it i not Iuk'Ii : second. hccilUse there is no practical provision for reducing di unki nness with the nt tciidant evils j and third, because it dues not express the opinion of any portion of the people who will per sistently enforce it." :.

Wait a few ye in, a in St. L wis, Chicago, etc, until the liquor power nljust itself to the new con di'.ions, find the evils of the High Ijiceiifo rrgiinent will become ron .pieious. 1 1. The Cfirittian Statetttnan, pub lished in Philadelphia, after citing the figures now freely circulated in favor of High-License in that city, says : The advocates of High-License throughout the country are herald ing these tiguies abroad as powerful vindication of the superior efficacy of this method of dealing with the vil. Hut it must be steadily insist ed on that High-License is not the feature of the law which has operat ed to produce these results. They are due almost exclusively to certain well defined Prohibitory features in the statute. Since such results as are outlined above have followed partial Prohibition, what may not be expected from the complete abo lition of the traffic. Kvery figure in the above returns is a powerful argu ment for t he adopt ion of the Prohibi tory Constitutional Amendment. l'J. It is known that the action of the Courts in Philadelphia, in refus ing two-thirds of the licenses applied for, involve so much of "colorable inomopoly and favoritism'' that it is doubtful whi-ther it is sustained by public opinion. The judge before quoted writes : "Already attempts are being made, at the capital, to aoiend the law- so as to emasculate it ; and so it will ever be a football of the politicians mid the legislators, as well as an apple of discord among the people. We want Constitution, al Prohibition because it is consis tent, progressive and permanent.'' IMtink. in-.;. isis .limi' .vm rus .llll if. MIC, Mll'llM . '.'s"i -JH s. iimiiIk r .
