TEMPERANCE NoTEs. Oregon is trying q
new form Of license law. Instead OF requir-
ing the sellers of liquors to otain licenses,
every man who drinks is required to take
out license costing five dollars year.
Unless armed with hi. document, he cannot
get his bitters at any hotel or saloon, as it
is q penal offence to sell to any person with
out license. Every six months the names
of the persons who take out these licenses
are to be published in the local papers.
Fifty years ago there were thirteen dis
tilleries in Maine, producing 1888 100 gal
Ions Of rum, all of which, together with
large quantities Of other distilled and fer
mented liquors imported from elsewhere,
were consumed there. Now, with a
population nearly twice as large. there
is not single distillery or brewery in the
State; and the highest estimate Of the
quantity of liquor drank places it at only
300. 900 gallons.
