AT all times We are willing and ever
anxious &c receive and publish communi-

This is necessary in order to represent
the county instead Of any one locality.
But, We must enter a protest against
communications being strung out 10 an
inorl!inlte length. We have made men,
ton of this subject several times. and
now wish it 10 be fully understood that
communications must be kept inside Of
proper bounds. Five closely written
pages Of commori note paper, or three
pages oflarge letter paper is the outside
limit as TO length, and if enough cannot
be said in that space make another arti-
Gle. We are thankful for favors Of the
kind, Blu. are compelled to request that
for publication be short.

The New Temperance Law.

The Assembly have done away with
the Graham Law and substituted in
It's stead an enactment that has nothing
to commend it, nothing good other
than what already exists in the general
law against the sale of Intoxicating
drinks. Not only has it no redeeming
features, but it is decidedly destructive,
doing away virtually with two impor-
tant features Of the time honored law
which has been upon the statute book
since the organization of the state gov
eminent. This new statute virtually
recognizes the right Of the liquor ven
dor to sell on the Sabbath, and does
not prohibit the sale of intoxicating
beverages on election days in effect
the Sabbath is done away with, and
the elective franchise is imperiled. 1t
has been clearly demonstrated that the
public good demands the closing of sa-
looms on election days. Riots and I'M
due excitement are the fruits of the
old practice Of "open saloons" on town
meeting and general election days, and
public sentiment tacitly acknowledged
the Justice Of the cold time honored"
law with its introductory power.
Mr. Bingham, OF Eau Claire, who
is a candid and conscientious man OBJ
serving the virtual abolition Of the old
safeguards for the protection Of moral
ity and good order, offered a provision
or amendment that these safeguards
might not be removed, but it was vot-
ed down and reform" achieved its
victory.
The ''reform" element in the House
was drilled almost to perfection in
reform tactics. Every amendment
looking toward true reform was quickly
voted down and every amendment tend
ing to enlarge the statuatory rights of
the whiskey interest, made by one Of
their number, was as quickly carried
with scarcely dissenting vote. The
law is sham, mere pretense, cum
ningly prepared to assume to do much,
but virtually to do nothing.
Thus are we reaping the fruits Of
''reform. Good laws are being re-
pealed and worthless enactments pass
ed void Of virtue and daspised even by
their supporters who bow the knee to
Baal and fear to stand manfully in de-
Tense Of the right and the true inter
ests of the whole people.
