The recent report Of the New York
metropolitan board Of excise gives Q
jrlei and suggestive summary OF the results
OF the enforcement OF the Law In that city for
the thirteen months from October !, 1860, to
December /, 1857. The law under which the
board was appointed was enacted April IA.
1866, and took immediate effect, but legal In
functions and distractions, which finally re-
suited In the decision ofthe full constitution.
ality of the act, delayed its practical operation
for six months. Since that time the law has
been efficiently and thoroughly enforced, and
its results furnish the strongest argument for
It's continuance and suggestion for those, ho
are seeking for similar statute The total
amount OF The fines and licenses collected In
the time specified was $1,000 45l, Of which
81, sos, 002 was received in the eight mon Ia
sirce March /, 1907, and on which the total
cost Of collection was less than per cent,
making a revenue sufficient, II undiverted 10
other uses. 20 pay off the entire public debt Of
the city Of New York within fifteen years.
OF this amount the commissioners Of eha1-
ties and corrections received S1l6473, the
isebriates' asylum at Blnghamton Sl2865o,
the inebriates' home Tor Kings county S40,-
5I2, and the sinking funds OF New York and
Brooklyn over 81 100000. The number OF
places for the public sale OF liquor, in the two
cities ofNew York and Brooklyn, was reduced
week from 16S--the whole number-to los,
aud from 10000 20 1900 persons formerly
engaged upon bsI-rooms and erog-shops have
beer emancipated TO some better and mora
honorable employment. The court records,
the Sunday arrests, the increasing bank ac-
counts ot the poor, and the quiet election
days, all show the effects OF the statute, and
encouragements for Its continuance. While
restriction has been thus exeTcised, no sober,
decent, lsw-abiding citizen, complains that
his private rights have been iafrirged, mora
than 5000 licensed places being open TO him
where he can obtain his liquor, and the total
prohibition Of sales on Sunday only requiring
the purchase OF sufficient supply on Satur-
day, with which TO bridge over the gulf to
Monday. The theory Of the law occupies the
middle ground, neither utter prohibition nor
free rum. and the commissioners say that If
the present golden mean between absolute
prohibition and boundless indulgence Is ad-
hered 10, no material alteration In the pres
ent law Is desirable, or would prove condu-
GIVE 10 The general well-being.
