The Next Step for the Freemcn of the County.

We have majority in the State for the new Liquor law
not so large majority had hoped, but much bet
ter than the minority feared And now, friends, the
blessed gains to be rcaped from its execution depend upon
first the Commissioner who has the appointing power
1agents thorough going and
judicous agent of the law who will neither be deceived,
caoed, driven into appointing inefficient
principed Town Agents The fact that windham Coun-
y gave majority against the law should impress those
friends of the law who did, and those who strangely
enough did not give their for it, be at the polls
and vote right in the matter of a Commissioner.
The fact that the popular majority in the State (abou
1200) is small one should not in the least affect the
faithful execution of the law If there had been one
ority against it, the friends of the law would have sub
mtted to the blue RUM till another opportunity called for
another struggle against its repeal before should take
effect. Our opponents, who aw-abiding advocates
will submit with less grace and good-naure to the
ecuton of law which proves to be adopted by MAORI
ty of the voters The State expects every to do his
duty. The of the State expect every humane Fa-
ther Husband Brother and Son exercise his right of
suffrage for the final suppression of the traffic. lest
