High License.
The Christian Union, in a well considered
artielo upon the question which to-day is
watched with such interest in Georgia, un
dertakes to show the effect of high license
in Illinois, taking as a basis the official re
ports. The editorial passes over “certuin
very honest temperance men whose aim is
to sueuro such legislation ns will relieve
them of all responsibility for tho liquor
traifio," and is addressed to the "vast ma
jority of temperance thinkers and workers,
who ore not particular to embody in the
statute book their own notions on tho sub
ject of temperance; who desire, before
everything, to secure such legislation as
will be practioiilly most effective in reducing
the drink traffic."
The license,” says the Union, “is fixed
by what is known as the Harper law, at
$300. In the city of Chicago this law has
increased the revenue to the city from
8200,000 to $1,500,000, and reduced the sa
loons from 4,000 to 3,300. In Hyde Park,
a suburb of Chicago, thongh the population
has increased, the saloons have been re
duced nearly one-half ; while the income
and consequent reduction of taxation haa
been multiplied tenfold. What is more
significant is a redaction in the number of
arrests from 1,895 to 678, In Springfield,
the capital of Illinois, the saloons have
been reduced 30 per cent, in number,
nnd the revenue from them has
been increased 231 per cent. In Peoria
the saloons havo been reduced nearly one-
half, tho revenue has been trebled. These
arc reports from the larger cities. In the
smaller towns similar effects havo been pro
duced. In some of them no licenses aro
granted, and prohibition is secured
by local option. In nearly, if not
quito all the others, the number of saloons
has been somew-hnt reduced, the nrnount of
revenue to the State largely increased, and
tho amount of drunkenness and disorder
notably diminished. From six columns of
reports that lie before us, we take some
specimen reports at haphazard:
Cairo, Hi.—Increase of revenue, 60 per
cent; decrease of saloons, nearly 50 per
cent; decrease of notable intemperance, 30
per cent.
Quincy—Increase bf revenue, nearly 40
per cent; decrease of saloons, 30 per cent.
Tolono—Revenue doubled; business of
police courts diminished 90 per cent.
Toledo—All tho low groggerios shut up.
Vandalia—No decrease of saloons; in
crease of revenae, sixty-six per cent.; fewer
cases of drunkennoss, and fewer disturb-
order to meet his request the Attorney-
General bad to order the district uttemey,
Mr. Hill, to commence the suit. There is
nothing private in all this. It directly in
terests the people of Georgia, and became
a legitimate piece of news to any newspaper
man with sufficient enterprise to look it up.
Onr correspondent mnkes no statement
to the discredit of Marshal Fitzaimons, but
states what others in authority have told him,
and what he has gotten from tho record.
And all of this is capable of a full and sat
isfactory explanation by n judicial investiga
tion, which Marshal Fitzsimons himself has
rcqnested. That it shall be fall and com
pleto the Comptroller of tho Treasury da-
vcntilate their own opinions, will bo asked
to be brief, respectful and responsible in
cash for the space used.

towns in this county tho high license law
has practically resulted in prohibition,
there being no une in tbesa places willing
to pay the required fee.” In tho reports
before ns we do not find a single town or
county which indicates unfavorable results.
The disadvantage of a Htato prohibitory
system is that it is not enforced in the
great citiee, whether iu Maine, Vermont,
Kansas, or Iowa. The advantage of a high
tax or a high license system is that it
eon be and is st once enforced in the cities,
whether in the State of Illinois or Mis
souri; that it shuts up, if not tho worst
saloons, certainly those which ore most
productive of disorder and of crime, while
it lias a tendency to shut np all saloons in
the smaller villages, un i, if accompanied by
local option, gives the people in the rural
districts absolute power to close them. At
all events, we think these definite reports
from tho various counties of Illinois are
juito conclusive as to one fact; tbit a high
license or a high tax, whatever may be
thought 01 it in theory, does practically
bare the effect to limit tho liquor traffic an. I
diminish the evils which flow from it.

with the drink triffle must either shut their

Morris—Saloons reduced from twenty-

$2,400 to $8,000.
We need not, perknps, continue these re

$700,000 to over $>,500,000, the number of
saloons has beon reduced from 13,000 to
