EmporiA Il laid out on q benevolent
plan; the streets are wide and beautiful.
The town abounds in fine residence stu
atoms. The society Of Emporia. it has Of
ten been remarked, more nearly resem-
bles that of an old New England town
than any place in the State. 1t is very
much like the society of Lawrence. There
is noticeable and gratifying absence of
that rough, uncouth, uncultivated style
which prevails in macy western commu-
mites. When Emporfa was first incor-
porated it was made a condition of the
sale of every lot that Intoxicating drinks
should not be sold on the premises, on
penalty of the forfeiture of the deed. 1t is
evident that this provision Is no longer in
force and effect, yet doubt if a town of
similar size can be found where there Is a
stronger moral and temperance sentiment.
The vendors of the liquid fire have had
many heated contest with the teetotal-
lers here, and thousands of dollars have
been spent fighting in the courts. The
moral and religious sentiment Is strong
here, AS is evidenced by the fact that
there are no less than nine church or
CARNATIONS in the city, all supplied with
respectable houses OF worship. Church
and Sabbath schools are well attended.
1t is perhaps owing to this fact that a
spirit of peace and al air of refinement
pervades the entire community.
