between Bingham, Of Ohio, and

Our Paper.

To-day We present to the read
ers of the Gazette an enlarged
sheet, and wethink il will be found
to be improved in other respects,
The increase in dimensions has
been attended with no small extra
expense, and our regular outlayt
of cash will be necessarily larger
in the future for the same reason
A considerable increase in our
business. therefore, resulting from
new subscriptions, and augmented
advertising and job work, will be
our only guaranty against actual
loss from the enterprise; but We
look confidently for the additional
support at the hands Of the commu-
nifty, thet shall remunerate US. We
intend to more than keep pace, in
further improvements, with the
patronage that may be extended tc
us. Several hundred paying sub
scribers, in addition to those al
roady on our list, should be in
weekly receipt oftho Gazette, which
our best endeayors shall be used tc
make more valuable to the citizent

The Prohibition Question in
Massachusetts,.


1t is worth while to note the
opinions Of eminent men on pro-
hibitive legislation as means of
promoting the cause of temperance
Somo recent evidence taken by
the Massach usetts Legislative Com
mittee on Prohibition is of a re-
markable character. The follow.
ing is a summary, including the
testimony Of Professor Agassiz:
"Bishop Fastburn testified to the
increase of intemperance, but did
not believe in total abstinence as a
universal principle.
"Rev. DIR. Lambert, of Charles
town, believed the prohibitory law
was contrary to tho genius OF our
institutions.
"Rev. DR.. Ellis, Of Charlostown,
deemed all efforts to coefce men in
matters Of private habit made them
more determined to continue tho
practices which were assailed.
"Rev.'Dr. Neale, of Boston, was
in favor Of the greatest possible re-
strTctions on the sale of liquor.
"Rev. DR.. Worcester thought a
coercivc law was impracticable.
He said he knew nothing in the
Old or New Testament which coun /.
selled prohihitory legislation, and
he did not think it was in harmony
with the Gospel.
REV. DIR. Putnam of Roxbury
believed that there was moro mod.
crate drinking at the present time
than twenty or twenty-five years
ago. He thought a prohibitory
law could not succeed, as men who
wished for liquor would have it,
and it were better to have a law to
restrain the traffic and restrict the
| evil.
"Rev. Joseph Tracy of Beverly
said that the form of effort for tenn.
perance in 1926 and 1927 was the
most efficient which had been en-
ployed. He did not think a pro-
hibitory law was a bar to moral
agencies, but that it formed an ex.
cuse for a neglect of the use of such
agencies.
Professor Agassiz said he hail
cd with joy the effort 10 cultivate
grapes in this country, as he con :
sidered such cultivation one of the
best means of making a temper
ance population he thought if the
cultivation was more general there
would be no need for prohibitory
law. He stated that temperance
societies had assisted in importing
pure wines into Norway, and that
in that country and in Denmark
and Sweden, intemperance had
been greatly checked by the intro
duction of such wines and ferment-
ed liquors-especially beer. He
expressed amazcment at the inter
feronce Of our government with the
modes Of living of the people. He
had no doubt that our facilities
especially in Ohio, Missouri and
California-were as favorable for
winc.growing as those of Europe,
and that the pursuit might become
a profitable part of our agriculture
and commerce. .l ...d

The Presidentrcturned the sup.
Elementary Reconstruction Bill to
the House, on Saturday, with his
veto. The document presents no
new feature, being merely a repe-
tition of previous objections to the
principle Of the original law estab-
fishing military governments for
the Southern States. The House
Immediately passed the bill over
his veto-114 to 25. The Senate
did the same-40 to7. The charges
brought by the House Committee
on Mares Nests. duplicating two
Senators in certain corrupt prac.
tices connected with the New York
Custom house, wero discussed in
the Senate. The charges are based
on the testimony of an employee OF
the House, who overheard two gen
tlemen talking, one of whom said
something about the New York
Custom house, TO the effect that he
had received $4,000, and intended
to keep it. The witness did not
know the men, but thought one Of
them looked like Senator Patterson,
of Tennessee. After the reading
of the evidence, Mr.. Doolittle, whose
name has been joined with that Of
Mr.. Patterson in these charges, de.
nounced the story as gross fabri.
cation, and made so severe stric.
lures upon the conduct of the House
Committee and its Chairman, that
he was called to order, but the Sen.
ate gave him, unanimously, per-
mission to goon Mr.. Howe, Doc
Titles colleague (they arc not per-
sonauy on speaking terms), defend,
ed Mr.. Doolittle, and testified to
his honorable character. The mat
ter was referred to the Judiciary
Committee for investigation, at the
request Of the implicated Senators.
Tho Senate passed a resolution to
adjourn on Tuesday until Decom-
bor. A similar resolution was be.
fore the House, fixing the time for
reassembling in November, but the
final vote was not taken. Thore
was a lively discussion upon the
question, and tho collateral one oi
impeachment, in which Messrs
Blaine and Stevens, and Garfield
and Eldridge, became considerably
excited, and decidedly personal in
their remarks. &. HI
In the House of Representatives,
Monday, the impeachment party
succeeded in passing a concurrent
resolution providing that Congress
shall adjourn on Thursday of'this
week, TO meet on the first Wednes-
days in May, June, September, Oc.
tober and November: provided that
the President of the Senate and
Speaker of tho House may, ten
days before either of the dates
named, issue a proclamation de-
claring tho meeting at that time un,
