Benefit of Prohibition.

In strong speech made last week in New Yorl, bv
Judge Noah Davis on "lntemperance in relation to
crime" he spoke US follows the benefit of probi-
ton:
The relation of intemperance to crime is also plainly
manifest where drunkenness is represSed by partial
complete prohibition. The cases of towns and viii
lagos where by the arrangements of their founders
no liquors or Intoxicating drinks have been al
lowed to be sold, furnish strong evidence. Vineland
with its 10000 people, without grOp-shOp and with
police force of constable. who is also OverSeer
of the poor with saray for both offices of S75 re-
ports some years a single crime, and poor rate
swelling TO the aggregate of 81 year. Greeley in
Colorado, is another town of 5000 people, and no
liquorshOp 1t uses and needs police force, and in
two years and half 81 only called out of its
poor fund. Bavaria, Illinois, a town of the same
population, with absolute prohibition without q
drunkard, without pauper. and without a crime
y small town in Western New York was founded some
years ago by gentleman. who made it a condition
i'll all his deeds that if liquors were sold the land
should revert to him. The condition became the sub
Ject OF ltlgaton in our courts and was held to be
valid and enforceable by eectment. That village has
none OF the incidents of intemperance and the same
hg true OF numerous other places whose founders
have established prohibition
1t may be said that these not fair examples be-
cause the inhabitants were all etOtalers
men Ihey are less conclusive perhaps but they
tainly show the value of the absence of temptaton
How Is 1t then where prohibition exists by absolute
law? Will not take Maine, the haCkneyet theme of
so many contradictions. further than to state that in
1870 her convictions for crime under prohibition were
only 43l, in every GS9 while in our State Tex
