Contributed by the W.C.T.U. of Charlottetown Objections to High License

TURNER, LITTLE BRITAIN, PA,

Our first objection is, that the scheme is acceptable tv the liquor interest, “ lr meets the views of honest (?) saloonkeepers,

for it would, in reality, be their best pro- tection, and not inimical to their interests.” Especially se, since the rumble of coming prohibition tills their ‘** The Brewers and Distillers Asso- of linois have decided to m-ke no objection to the existing law before the Legislature and Jet things take its course,

They are satisfied with it Their experience with license laws in general, and with this one in particular, has taught them that be-

hind the law they have nothing to fear.

Protection is just what they want; the withdrawal of protection is just what they But that which is acceptable to the tratlic is the very thing which cannot be, and should not be, acceptable to the mass of the people who oppose the trafic. Ir is a serious objection to the plan that ** it the very men whose interests it shou.d be designed |!

Second, high license corrupts the source It may not be true that it is advucated principally for only claimed that ‘this is no siight consideration.” I is true, nevertheless, that every such law, socner or later, comes to be valued chiefly aS &@ meausof revenue, to a degree thar blunts the public conscience aad. sadly in-

fluences public opinion as to glaring evils. As long asa large portion of the nation’s revenue comes from the present sources, it will be astrong obstacle to effective deal- ing with the whole evil. Not ovly does this corruption affect the number of licenses issued in the first place, and alsu measurably the strictness of the rquire- ments as to those who receive permission to sel!, but it makes the people and their public servants less careful to revoke licenses when they should be revoked, The revenue derived from it is the chiet reason why England dves not blot out the disgrace of her enforced opium trade with China. So with the license tee. The saloon becomes related to the municipality, and the traffic tu the state, as the wolf to the old hunter, who used every spring to claim and receive the bounty on from three to five wolf scalps regulariy brought in. An- xious to sulve the problem of his success, a young Nimrod once begged to be taken along, - They had not gone far into the woods when a large wolf waa sighted. Up went the young man’s rifle. “Hold on there,” cried the veteran, knocking it aside, *‘that’s the old she wolf. Tf you kill herthere won’t be no mure cubs.” ‘Then it came out that this unharmed breeder had been the source of his gains. What we want is to kill the ‘told she wolf,’’—the li- cense system. But while cubs, viz , saloons and taverns, affurd a revenue, men will be found base enough to cry **D n't kill her.”

Third, high license does not touch the evil itself, and it ought to be barred for this reason, if for no other. The curse is in the decoction svld, net in the price paid for the privilege of ce ling it, nor in the character of the man who selis.

Fourth, high license gives the liquor bus-

iness a semblance of repectability. It gilds the trap, makes it more alluring and cor- _respondingly more dangerous, 1 know that it is advanced as a plea for high license that it will make the saloon respectable. The saloon canavt be made respectable; but you can give it the guise of respectabiity,

Fifth, high license practically erects a liquor obligarchy. One effect of such a law as is proposed will be to produce and sustain a banded liquor monuply. This is contrary to the whole spirit ot our laws and institutions, ‘No principle,” says Judge Pitman, ‘tis more firmly implanted in the American wind than that which John Adams placed in the bill of rights prefixed to the constitution of Massachusetts : * No man, nor corporation, nor association of men have any other title to obtain advan tages, or particular aud exclusive privileges, distinct frum those of the community, than that what arises from the consideration o services rendered the pub i:-”

we need no stronger reasons for pushing it. The evidence is compicte, the argu- ment is invincible, the conclusion is thun- dered into our conscience, Let us bring in the verdict and close the case. High li- cense will not do, for that which is wrong in principle cannot be good pelicy, and a question is never settled until it is settled

The English Market for Eggs.

Six,—-The statistiva! showing (particulars of which I have just received from Eng- iand) of the number and value of eggs im- ported to the United Kingdoin is s0 encour- aging to chat industry in P. I. Island, that i will bri fly lay the information betore your re saders, that they muy see how valu- able to them the English market for. ‘* hen fruit” may, witha little energy and push, be made. The demand for eggs in Bug- land is larger every year, as I will show by figures, an a provided ehipments are made **an good order and well conditioned,” and proper transportation secured, there ean be nv valid reason given why our P, E. Island products, in any quantity, should not secure maximum returns. The number for 1569 was 167,695,400, ond their value in dollars was two and three- quarter millions. Toe figures for 1889 (latest computation) are 1.131,900,000 2s the number, ana $15,637,900 as the price realized. By this it witi be seen that the increase be- tween 1860 and 1890 is a steady ad- Vance (fur the annual increase is very unitorm), from two to fifteen million toilars. Now the egg industry is especiaily adapted to argicultural P, i I., and if it were made a depsrtment of the Board of Tiade, aad subjected to control, it wonvld svon make such an impression on the English mai ket, that they would coomand a prefer. @ 10% Perhaps I may be permittel to make sme suggestivas that I know would help sales at premium prices. No egg should be shipped thar would net be 8 to the pound, that is to say, maintain a 2oz. standard, Every case should have a Board of Trade.in-. spection mark, which would seil them at sight. The mak I would recommend would be a craie mark ot an eval hoe with the figure *2” inside it to indicate that no egg, in the crate wes less than two eunces, Im- proved breeds, carefuily selected for production, would 800un attain the desived excellence, if properly cared for, and the farmers of ?. E 1. would edd «ne more reliable produc. te the provision marked, this would not only sweli their pocket books, but add to the fame of the Island for thri't and entei prise, and if a thoroaghiy equipped cannery for the surpius poultry weie star me it would be found, that « second and eguali proiitable market could be found, on Engli steamers.

: fioch Lymph.

Sir.—The Patriot very seldom copies news items from Tur Examiner, but obser ve thatis has dune so vith your paragraph announcing the arrival of & su; ply of “Koch's Lymph in Charlot:c-own.” I[ presume that neither of the editers of our two Island dali+s would wilful, mislead the pubiic in a matter in which so many of their sufferin feilow beings are so deeply interested, om therefore conclude that before m«king the apnouncement they made themselves sure that the g-ouioe Koch Lymph had been received in Cherlottetown. There is one thing, however, in the administration of it by the party you name which does seem a little curious, The virus you sty, is being administered by him internally instead of hypodermical!y as recommended by Dr. Koch, the discoverer of th new remedy. Now, here is what Dr. Koch himself says abouc it: **Intreduced into the stomach the remedy has no effect.” The Koch Lymph heading for advertisments may now be looked for, Nasal Balm hos already adopted it as such.

markable discovery was made during the excavation of a big drain to connect Cote St. Antoine drainage with Montreal, inter- cepting a sewer, and when a depth of thirty feet had been reached the werkmen came pnen « lergo bed of oysters, the shells of which, although petrified, were firmly clos ed. The discovery is louked on as very in- teresting by scientific men. Montreal is a distance of about 600 miles from the oyster beds of the St Lawrence.
