New YORK, Nov. II, 1877.



THR TEMPERANCE NOV EMENT.
The managers of the Law and Order
League have departed from the plan laid
down by DR.. Crosby, and are making
raids on the fashionable drinking places.
Last week all the big hotels and restaur-
ants were assaulted, and their proprietors
required TO answer. 1t was an aStonish-
or on these people. The great hotels had
favored the movement upon the rum
mills, but the idea that their places would
ever be interfered with never entered
their heads. Therefore when officers en-
tered and shut them up. and when they
were called upon to answer, their indigna-
ton was beyond telling. 1t doesn't make
any difference, however, with them
Guests simply order drinks to their rooms
and there is, in each of them, u room
in which liquor can be had, served by an
irresponsible party, and without making
the hotel responsible. The little doggery
cannot do this, for it never has but one
room, and its trade must necessarily be
open and without cover. DR.. Crosby was
right. Of course it isn't logical TO squelch
i'm Rafferty, and let the Fifth Avenue go
on, but it happens to be the case that Tim
Rafferty, can be squelched, while no law
that can be made can prevent the Fifth
Avenue from selling liquor. And it has
the further reason that the people who
drink at the Fifth Avenue are less in
jurcd than those who swallow Ratlerty's
poison. Rafferty, actually takes the bread
out of the mouths of women and children
the swells ut the Fifth Avenue, it is true,
kill themselves, but is the world any the
worse for it? If liquor can be kept from
the laborers a great point is made-by III
raging the swells against the movement, IL
big risk is taken that it will fail entirely.
At the Aston last Sunday. u regular drink
er at that bar found it closed. "Step into
No. g." whispered the attendant who
stood there to direct the regular customers.
81 wish to God, No. 6 could be closed
too" was the response of the victim. But
he went and took his drink all the same.
and after two or three was cursing the
League as heartily as though he hid an
interest in liquor.
