There seems to be an alarming
amount Of drunkenness in our town.
In view of the fact that the present
city government was elected that the
morals of the city might be improv-
ed, we would suggest that, in that
particular respect, it is stupendous
failure, for last year there was far less
drunkenness on our streets than is
now beheld. We would recommend
that few articles upon the question
of Temperance from the pens of some
Of the able local contributors of the
Monitor, might prove beneficial in
this direction, written in the same
critical style which marked those
published just previous to the last
election. In the absence of this war
fare on the rum shops, we shall be
constrained to infer that these rabid
temperance men and sanctimonious
morality .shrickers are merely SO for
the effect it has in carrying out
their intense hatred of the men who
engage in selling the ardent" and
that being secured, their fears for the
safety Of the morals of our youths are
allayed. Certain it is, that the col
umns of our esteemed and liberal con.
temporary, the Monitor, which pre-.
vious to the last election, fairly
groaned meath the weight of rabid
temperance contributions, have since
that time been as free of such sug.
gestions as the rum shops themselves
are of the glory of God.
Now is just the time for the annu'
al reminder to overhaul your fire
places, chimneys and stove pipes
and where repairs are needed to have
them made without delay. This is
also, one Of the few cases where 0
little attention to your careless
neighbours business is in order. Cal
his attention to the matter and SET
that he attends TO it.
Mr.. c. W. Maupin, at the Arbucklt
Post Office, has just returned from
the East with the largest stock o
goods he has ever opened. He is s
good man to deal with, has been goot
to the people of that section, and il
deserving of their patronage. Give
him a call.
Mr.. J. H. johnson, left at our of
fee, Saturday, two large turnips.-
He said they were for our sick roos
ter. Well feed them to him, ant
hope to have him well enough tc
crow over the November elections.
