during the past season five pounds per tree.
They were planted five years ago from seed

ENFORCING THE LAV.

The pred0minating mischief of most liquor
laws has been that their enforcement, being
found difficult has usually been abandoned at
an early day. Prohibition. as our readers
know, has been given up in Massachusetts,
and there is another trial on foot there of the
license system. All the good hotels, for in
stance, in Boston, are licensed to sell intOxi-
eating liquors, but they must pay certain
sum for the privilege. Now the Hotel BruDs-
wick is one of the most respectable of public
houses in that respectable town in fact, it is
the place of residence of the Governor of the
Commonwealth. The propretOrs received a
license but they neglected to pay for it. Re-
peatedy notified, the negligence was cOntin-
ued; whereupOn the police at one fell swOOp,
carried off all the choice spirits and neat wines
in the cellars of the establishment. This must
have created terrible cOmmOtiOn, but really
we do not see how the proceeding was to be
avoided. Law is law, whether it affects the
gentlemanly landlord or the proprietor of q
third-rate bucket-shOp. One of the greatest
complaints in Massachusetts, has always been
that there was plenty of law for the poorer
class of retail dealers while the wholesale dealers
and the best hotels went on selling with
comparative impunity-as they did. Moreover,
the cry OF the opponents of prohibition has
always been for Il judicious license system.
The least they can now do is to take out
licenses and pay for them.
We have invariably advocated, here in New
York, an enforcement of existing statutes tine
trouble sometimes being to find out precisely
what the statutes were. If the enactment be
good one, it ought TO be rigidly respected,
and the only way to make sure of its repeal
if it be bad one, is to enforce it all the
same. One of the most dcmoralizing things
in the world Is n law not regularly repealed,
but laid upon the shelf To be brought out and
made mach OF for few days, and then put
snugly back again. Heretofore, for a good
many years, all attempts To regulate the sale
Of spirits, wine and beer have been ridiculous
failures statutes passed in hot haste were sub
stantilliy disreSarded at leisure, and only oc-
cas.onally, for some Interior reason. WAS a
show made of enforcing them Massachusetts,
has been specially active in these experiments,
though New-YOrk has also tired her hand
occasionally. We know what has been the re-
sut in Now-Y ork-n Massachusetts it has
been no better. Never Mt any time in that
State has the pronibitory law been steadily
and effectively vindicated though as rule ii
has been deiicd with singular audlcity. Now
comes the new experiment Of license, and it is
no wonder that some of the liquor-dealers APP
pear to regard that also "a a stupend0us joke.
Possibly they will find themselves mistaken

THE pPrsyDryTS SPEECHES.


II oroues n liberal amount of good sense Ill
President to be able to make twenty or
thirty speeches in weeks time without say
ing a foolish thing This is the feat President
HAYES accomplished during his New-England
tour. Some people, we know, fnd tault DC
cause he did not put more meat and mar
row in his remarks, but therein Is just Whele he
showed sagacity. A President cannot 90 ABOUT
expounding questions of administrative pOiiey
TO crowds at railway stations without running
an imminent risk of saying something lndls-
Greet on the spur of the moment, that VIII re-
turn in cold, unalterable print to plague him.
For the keen-eared reporter, with pencil ana
notebook, is ever at his elbow, and careless
remark, which would be speedily forgotten II
heard only by the audience to whom 1t Is adj
dressed, is trumpeted throughout the country
next morning and is magniied into an indica-
ton of some important official intent. When
Mr. HAYES told one of his New-Hampshire
crowds that the business of an Executive was to
execute and not to discuss public measures, he
gave the best possible answer to the critics
who complain because he did not deliver states
manlike oratiOns on the issues Of the day.
Mr. Hayes has been in public life long enough
to know the danger of much speaking The
wise thing for him to do when presented to the
throngs which greeted him on his recent trip,
was to thank them gracefully and cordially
for their greetings, and that was just what he
did, with sufficient variety of phraseology and
an occasional local allusion, to relieve his brief
addresses of a stereotyped sameness. He went
a little further, now and then, and put in
good word for fraternal feeling between all
sections of the country and for the full recog-
milton Of the equal rights of all citizens. In a
quiet way lie tried his pacifcation policy upon
audiences supposed to be hostile to it, and was
no doubt gratifed to find that they appeared
to like it, His references to national affairs
were all grounded upon the keys of harmony
and obedience to the Constitution, and not
even his most partisan opponents could find
cause for attack in what he said We think,
therefore, that as a speech-making President
Mr. Hayes has proved remarkably successful.
He did not feel obliged to keep silent, like
Gen. Grant, and exhibit himself in dumb show,
nor did he, like Andrew Johnson, only open
his mouth to "put his foot in it."

Illinois about 100000.

between mob and an insurrecton. The railroad
