ScRUrULoUs Coop FA1TH.-The late
Harmanus Blocker, of the city of Albany,
married at an advanced period of life,
while residing abroad as American charge
at Hague. Dying some years afterwards,
he left his estate, valued at $4,000 to
$4,000, to his wife, for life, with a YER
bal request that at her death she would
dispose of it in some way, as she might
think best, for the benefit of his native
city Of Albany. The lady has since mar
ried, and with rare delicacy, has united
with her husband in petition to the Leg
islature of the State for the establishment
of trust, to ensure the security of the
fund during the life time of the lady, and
its application at her death.

in such countries is always too small for
the wants of the people and for the rap
i'd and healthful development Of their re-
sources, labor is therefore the most i'm
portant part of their capital. All the
money, or its equivalent, which is spent
for intoxicating drinks is dead loss to
the individual and to the community -and
much worse than that, for in a sparsely-
peopled country, like your Territory, ev-
cry dollar spent in strong drink, involves
the loss of at least two other dollars, in
time, and in the diminished industry of
the people. One of the earliest and most
certain effects of the traffic in strong drinks
is 10 undermine the industrial activity Of
the people, to make them unthrifty in all
the affairs of life-and to make them final
ly poor, ignorant, miserable, vicious and
degraded. All this they will certainly be-
come, just in proportion and degree as
they fall under the influence of that traf-
fic
Nothing, then, can so much promote
the interests of your people and the pros
perity Of your Territory, as to provide by
" Souiu, 0''inSoht, ioSdi cIiaCtIuenI loI tIiC
etectual suppression Of the traffic in in
toxicating drinks-for the final extin-
guishment of shrinking houses and tip
pling shops" as the Maine Law express
es it.
The money which such a measure will
save to your people, will afford ample
means for establishing schools, academies,
libraries and churches; for making roads,
building bridges, factories and workshops;
in word, for adjoining your Territory
speedily with all the accessories of high
and pure civilization. Alms-houscs, iails
and prisons, you will not require, but pub
lie halls and lecture-rooms you will need;
and all these, with much more, you can
provide with means, which, without the
measure l recommend, would be expended
for strong drinks, which inevitably i'm
poverish and degrade those who use them.
l wish you would send me a copy of
your Law; let me know the action of
your people upon it, and communicate any
information which may be interesting.
Very respectfully yours,
NEAL DOW.

NEAL BOWS LETTER,
PORTLAND, April Ia, 1856

PORTLAND, April IA, 1892.
c. G. AMrs, (Cor. Sec. Min. Ter. Temp.
Society:)
Dear Sir Yours of March 10th is
duly received. l am rejoiced to know
that our brethren of the great West are
interesting themselves in the work of pro-
tecting the people from the terrible eff
fects of the traffic in strong drinks. The
"Act for the suppression of drinking
houses and tipping shops" known as the
Maine Law, is working wonders in this
State-reducing intemperance, poverty,
pauperism and crime to very narrow linn
its. The steady operation Of the Law for
five years, would produce almost magical
effects upon the condition of the people,
and would be sure to cause the adoption
of similar measure in all our sister States.
When the Law was first enacted, many
good men doubted the expediency of the
measure; but now all such are convinced
that it was most wise, and will be most
salutary in its effects upon public and pri-
vate happiness and welfare.
We are anxious that our sister States
should initiate our example in this par
ticular, and derive all the advantages from
it which will certainly follow. Nothing
can contribute so much and so directly to
the wealth and prosperity of new coun-
try, like Minnesota Territory, as the alb
solute prohibition of the traffic in intoxi.
