The Honey and -He1 Engaged IN It.
From the New York Evening Post
One of our correspondents sends
us a detailed statement of the
amount of intoxicating liquors used
in the United States, He says that
he has obtained the figures from of
fetal documents, and that he has
presented them in the following
compact form, so that even the cas-
ual reader may see how large, both
absolutely and relatively, the traffic
in intoxicating liquors is in this
country:
Statement showing the amount of money
spent in the United States for Intoxicating

official records:

THE EQUITY OF THE CASE

At recent conclave of municipal
bond holders, over in Minnesota,
the following was made one of the
clap-boards in their sunken platform.
eve call to your notice especial
ely that the City Of Duluth has an
"undoubted equitable claim upon
{" the United States for a repay
+" ment of all monies expended by
:" the city in making harbor improve
!" ments-which have been accepted
by the L. S. as public works-and
!" that the city authorities ought to
" cause these claims to be pressed
a" vigorously upon Congress until the
" same are acknowledged and paid"
Equitable claims often grow out
OF broken contracts, especially
where three or more parties are in.
terested, and the ardent zeal dis
played in getting the United States
acceptance Of the canal, dixie and
other harbor i'm provements, strength
ems the equity, and cheers the
dropping arderecy of the bond-hoId-
ers. The amount of this equitable
claim is inconsiderable and too small
a job for Congress; the pressure
however vigorous, would yield too
small dividend.
The conclave of bondholders rep
resented but a fraction of equities to
be adjusted by the United States
acceptance of the canal and making
it public Improvement; the own
ers of the two hundred acres Of
Minnesota Point have higher and
most equitable claim for the des-
truction of its availability as town
property and for commercial pur-
poses.
And we "call notice especially"
that the latter parties equities ad
ded to the bondholders' will make a
Congress job worthy of the notice
of the ring-masters around Wash

HE encroachments upon the
mouth of the Hudson between New
York and Jersey City have long at
tracted public criticism. The Gov
ernors OF the respective states in
their recent annual messages call
attention to the impending damage
to commerce, each charging the
other with the trespass. Where
the Hudson in 1867 was nearly five
thousand feet broad between the
two cities, New York has docked
out near two thousand, and the II
parian owners on the Jersey side
have as they admit, filed in their
bays and indentations.
Here are mutual trespasses, but
strongly condemned by the Cover
nors Of both States; and Legislative
provision is urged for. prompt rem
edy.
In view Of the facts Gov. Dix
said in his message & The harbor of
=" New Y ork has already been seri-
q ously injured by these obstruc-
tons; and unless their progress is
" arrested by speedy and efficient
measures, there is great danger
:" that it may in the course of time
:" share the fate of many maritime
"ports in Europe, which have thro'
like causes become wholly use
'sleSs."
Wisconsin 5 most western harbor
on Lake Superior has not only been
obstructed and cut off from its free
navigation, but its waters diverted
from their natural channel. 1t is in
view of such facts that the war
worn veteran and patriotic states
man, Gov. Dix, gives us the benefit
of his knowledge of inevitable re-
suits.
Forty years ago Gov. Lucas Of
Ohio had an encroachment to deal
with; and he asserted and vindica-
ted has State without resort to the

Add to this, 100000, 200, the cost
of litigations, crimes, prisons, etc :,
caused in part by intemperance, and
we have for single year the enor
nous sum of 81, ,573,49 ,865.
The cost of -four and meal was $3.50, 600, OO0
The cost of cotton goods 100000
The cost Of boots and shoes 100000 900
The cost of clothing 10000, 900
The cost of WOODEN goods 60,O00,OOO
The cost of newspapers and job
printing 100000
Total $3.50, 900, 900
There were 100000 licensed liq-

each having (estimated) 40 daily
customers, making 100000 drink
