= ~ All Of our exchanges, in every large
town in tho State, are lamenting over their
crease Of ifguor shops, and the prevalence of
drunkenness and rowdyism. The complaints
are universal and simultaneous and cannot be
the echo and re-echo Of the same thought
started at.one point. There must be local
causes that have forced the subject upon the
attention of all Free trade in liquor is evi-
IDENTIFY producing most direfuI effects upon the
community, which it is the imperative duty of
the Legislature to do something to arrest. 1t
is shallow view, to say that the making
power does not embrace the care of the moral
condition of people The moral sentiments
of a community, are often stronger element
of material prosperity, than any regulation Of
& its physical condition. The wisest measures
for the npaterisI advancement OF State are
defeated by the prevalence of Immoral habits
and principles. All the bounties. OF nature
the most sagacious policy of Legislation--the
most beneyoent and extensive works Of a
government, fer the material advancement of
a State, are useless to a people sinking into
moral degradation. The highest value to fix
ed property in towns and cities sgiven by the
social, moral, and intellectual character of
their population. Contrast the condition Of a
town -ands the worth OF its property, where ig-
: anorance, vices and Drunkenness are its leading
characteristics with town Of corresponding
natur5t3 advantages, where sobriety, industry
sirtuej and mt ligence prevail, and ask if the
:, he bo
RIO provide for the material welfare of the peo-
pie, ought not to have the power to decide
4 upon some of the moral questions that affect
the private habits of the people, To deny to
the State the right. to regulate in any man
Z ner the moral habits Of its population is to make
its power tospromote the happiness of peo-
= pie in other respects, of very little avail. A
p. government that has the right to remove
slaughter house or an offensive factory as a
nuisance and to prescribe how man shall
build his own house, and to enter and exam
inc it at pleasure to see that his neighbors are
not endangered BY his errors recklessness,
ought to have the power TO remove or prohib-
it drinking-shops that are consuming the
wealth@ %depriving the public Of the labor o
a large numbered its citizens land donrorali-
zing the people'o Of the State. The next Legis-
lature will, we hope, devise some regulations
to arrest thu spread of the crying evil, that
shall be, by Dill parties, acknowledged to be
within the legitimate powers Of government
and which our courts will sustain as constitu-
- tional. ...,,.r, ..r-,s..-..,.a
