EMPHATIC ENOUGH FOR 8ALOONISTS
TO UNDERSTAND.
The makers and sellers of whiskey
have once more been put on emphatic
notice that their business has no standing
in law except the standing of sufferance?and
grudged sufferance at that.
The local ontion atAhita of Pninwitn
attacked on the pleading that a citizen
had a common law right to sell liquors
exactly on the same basis of his indisputable
right to sell wheat, corn, potatoes
and the like. But the supreme court of
the State sat down with smashing emphasis
on the lawyers who had the hardihood
to offer this ancient and dilapidated
plea. The court's decision reads:
"We affirm as a fact generally recognized
that liquor in its very nature is an
article dangerous in its use to the morals,
good order, health and Bafety of the people,
and it may not, at least with any
show of reason, be placed on the same
footing with the ordinary and necessary
commodities of life. So the doctrine is
settled, for this day and generation at
least, that the right of a citizen to keep
a saloon and sell rum or whiskey or any
other sort of intoxicating liquor, depends
solely on a strict compliance by the vendor
with the requirements of the license 1
laws in force in the community in which
such sale is proposed. It follows therefni*A

seller may have at common law, it was
and is no such right as might not have
heen by the proper authorities acting
under valid restrictive or prohibitory
laws, regulated or controlled or entirely
suppressed in the interests of good government,
clean morals and the general
public welfare."?The Interior.
WHY THEY GO TOGETHER.
"Bottles and rags! bottles and rags!"
called the ragman, as he plied his calling.
"Why do you always put these words
together?" asked the passer-by.
"Because, madam," said the ragman,
courteously touching his hat to the lady,
"wherever you find bottles you find rags."
Shrewd Dhilosonhv! It la n nit? that
our statesmen can not see the thing as
clearly, and do not, (or the good of prosperity,
to say nothing of the moral happiness
of the people, stop the accursed
liquor traffic instead of putting in the
way of Christian workers all sorts of
handicaps.
Remember the shrewd words of the
ragman, who sees things as they are:
"Wherever you find bottles you find
rags." And if you wish to save people
-from coming to rags, you will banish the
bottle. Let us all say we shall not give
over the fight until we succeed.
