The above population is taken from
the late census; the sales are the amounts
paid by the U. S. Commissioner. The
last column exhibits the sales per head
of population The first three States,
with population of two and one-fourth
millions, retail only about one fourth as
much of the abominable stuff as Ohio.
Is not Maine immeasurably better off
than California? The expenditure of
the former being only $l3l7 per head,
while that of the later is $l06.95. She is
richer both financially and morally. The
competency of a restrictive law, strictly
enforced, is seen in the effect it has upon
and its power in reducing crime. You
will find some very instructive figures in
the late Aduocate. 1t gives the number
of inhabiters of the county jails, and city
and state prisons of Mass. during a year
in which the prohibitive law was well en-
forced, and compares them with the
number imprisoned during year with
out strict legislation and enforcement
You can guess the result of comparison.
1t is cheering to know the result OF the
popular vote on the "local-option" law,
lately made by the Pennsylvania Legis
lature. Forty-two counties and six cities
voted against license and twenty-three
counties and sixteen cities 'for license.
writer says, "there is not now licensed
liquor-saloon over the entire width of the

There is quite an excitement in the State

The Legislature enacted the Local-option
Prohibition Bill, and Governor Dix
vetoed it. In conclusion we would say,
to those who have in their hearts sympa-
thy for suffering humanity, be active, be
hopeful, be prayerful.

which, he iuclo>cd. On examining the in
closed bill it was discovered that it was con-
siicrably shorter than the ordinary bills, ana
a further investigation revealed the fact that
it was Il piece OF mosaic ingenuity, ii being
wholly constructed, with the exception OF
one corner. of small strips OF other bills OF
the denomination OF $3.50. These strips were
all neatly pasted on tissue paper, tErou@ n
which, however, tie back Of the note
or fifteen strips in all. but the right
hand upper conner, which contained the
figures "500.'' was composed Of three
colnercd piece torn from another bill.
In order to gel these transverse strips
it was necessary TO take Il narrow strip

bills did not iuinai" their value, as under

The writer requested the new money to be

and 4 Treasury detective was instructed to
watch the station and ascertain who called
for the answer of the Treasury Department
to the request. This was done, and young
man about twenty years OF age, bank teller,
was arrested on the charge OF attempting to
delraud the Government. He made Il full
confession. but begged so piteouSly for mercy
that the detectives and II number Of lntlucn-
