At the present market pr'ne Of Virgins cSrso,

People 10 foreign countries. like right think
ing people 10 the United States, have gotten
over their amusement at the absurdiiy e2hib-
tied by Mr.. Hayes and Congress in assuming
the right Of controlling and possessing private
properly 10 territory over which this Govern.
ment has 90 Jurisdiction, ard sre becoming dis.
gusted at tho ridiculous assumption. The
London Times very properly says Tho Of i.c.
lions urged by this Government against the
construction Of the c,nal by Nj. do Lesser 8
might With equal propriety be urged against
its construction by the Colombian government"
to which the Isthmus of Panama is subject
The absurdiy of such Oh ecliops needs only
to be mentioned to be scon. The United States
ought either to get peim s5ion Of the Colombian
government to build the CANAL and then appro.
priste the money for the purpose or else to 'shut
up, and lot anybody build it who can raise the
requisite money and obtain the consont Of the
Uoited States of Colombia. Tho Colombian
government never did look at tho Interference
Of the United States With its affairs 10 its ridic-
ulous asptc', and it is now beginning to growl,
tho latest dispatch from there stating that Mr..
Hayes recent action in regard TO the proposed
canal has created great dissatisfaction there,
and that many Ct tho most intelligent citizans
OF that government denouDoo it as impairment

local Option Superior to General
Prohibition.


The American Vino aud Grape Grower gives
statistics (sso GSzotte of March l9) which arc
quito gti6csnt, if correct. 1t states that in
Massachusetts, in 1874. with probbitory liquor
!aw, there were 10 certain localities 5 GOO liquor
shops and that in 1877. in the same pl,c:s,
under licecs, law, thoro wtro 5,273. This
shows that the last year of tho rrohibitor7 law,
when the liquor men were shaking heaven and
earth for it's repeal, the law waa cot enforced in
the localities referred to. 1t also suggests tho
immense superiority Of local option over general
prohibition. Prohibition means free Wbiskey
in community where public sentiment is not
strongly in favor OF enforcing the law, and We
frankly admit that general law cannot lie
carried out as special law may be, for what is
everybodys business becomes nobody's bust
ness. Lceal option. however, being COO
fined to communities finds foil support by
the people who have hanishcd rum shops
after severe struggle aud the people 1UW sec 1t
enforced. Let the people of Alexandria say by
majority vote that these sinks of iniuuity shall
be closed aud tho sale of liquor bccomiog un
lawful wo will have nearly 1000 argus eyed
watchers who will report violations of the law,
and see that the law officers do thur duty.
But these statistics prove tho great fact for
which VIC contend. viz. that whiskey shops are
tho source oil crime AID tho moro Of them, the
more crime abou1ds for whereas with 5.G0g
rum shops there were IS .044 arrests with 273
the arrcs!s Wero only 20,657 showing that a re.
duction of $50 shops secured reduction oil
1881 arrests. Let tho liquor men study these
figures closely. w. X, BOYLE.
