ALBANY April r. Is55
The Assembly appears to have got through with It's
heavy business and is proceeding more eisurey.
1t held only session Yesterday during which it passed
the bin to provide for the more speedy determination Of
charges against officers liable to be removed by the Gov
| ernou the State Charity bill, &c.
| LIQUOR SELLING IN NETWORK.
Mr. vandonbeg reported the bill to regulate the sale Of
Intoxicating liquors IN the Metropolitan District, which
motion Of Mr. Brandreth made special order Tor
Friday at o'clock. desperate effort Is being made 70
defeat this righteous measure, and the reason Is OBJ
vious The liquor dealers in NewYork If they paid the
same fees for Licenses that liquor sellers IN the country
pay would contribute 10 the funds Of the city about
s2i0 600 whereas they only pay about $4,000 or SOS
900 less than they ought TO pay. II is no wonder that
they opposed to allowing the Boardof Health of New
TO be by the present Board Of Excise OF that
city. They saving over 100000 per annum
by the existing arrangement by the failure OF the As
mentioned Board 20 do their duty under the law. No
doubt they would be willing TO pay 100000 to defeat the
bill now before the Legislature; they could do 1t, and
then save upward of 100000 But they will hardly sue
coed. Sixty-thrce members voted for Mr.. Brandreth
resolution to make il special order for tomorrow and
think two votes be obtained when the bll IL
put on its final reading Country members can see no
reason why their constituents should pay from $50 To
800 for license 20 sell liquor while the city dealer gets
rid of paving ANYTHING The latter makes great deal Of
money, well as an untold amount of misery let him
be made to pay for the privilege.
