its ABSENCE is the question that is now
taking hold of the mind of the Ameri-
can people with a force that has never
before been reached. That the rum
traffic must go down in the light of our
advancing civilization, is a conviction
that our wisest men feel will soon be
worked out into an accomplished fact.
1t is not enough that the branches
shouldbelopped olfin the several States;
the axe should be laid at the root of
the tree in its National aspect by an
Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States, prohibiting the manu-
facture and sale of Intoxicating liquors
as a beverage. The "blood money :"
received into the treasury is at the cost
of thousands of valuable lives entailing
on whatever family it touches misery
or poverty. How can there be two
opinions on this subject with patriots

IT was well for our strawberry
growers that the great strike of the
freight handlers in the cities did not
occur earlier in the season, or their re-
ceipts might have been much less. But
a greater concern rests in this quarter
in regard to the peach crop, from the
fact of its greater magnitude. 1t is to
be hoped that all the differences will
be adjusted before the incoming of this
crop. OF this however there is no
certainty; these strikes are sometimes
of stubborn duration. Two years ago,
the earliest varieties, at a correspond
ing date, had been going to market for
a week. In a week or so small ship
ments must begin and by the time the
Hale's Early" is reached the quantity
will aggregate number Of cars daily.
We read in the New York papers OF
large quantities of cabbage and other
farm products perishing in the freight
houses. The peach crop is too valua'
