We fear New England will soon lose
its grip on this country as its moral
backbone. That section has ALWAYS
been noted for its possession of what
Whittier calls "tbe homely old-time vir-
tues of the north" But this reputation
seems to be slipping from under them.
First, we have the disgusting revelations
of Tewksbury, Mass, which are un-
equaled in the annals of Official crime
committed on the helpless and unfor-
tunate inmates of an aimshouse. New
Hampshire presents record of crime
in another direction that is more
discouraging to our humanity. A
very dark picture is revealed by the
proceedings of her courts in the matter
OF divorces. 1t is found out that one in
every ten marriages is nuilified. and
more than one fourth OF the 3I4 divorces
granted in 1882 were on the ground Of
adultry proved in court.

Chicago Tribune. Only two Demo
Gratis in the Ohio lower house voted for
the Scott !iquor-Iax law imposing 5000
tax on the sale of whisky and 800 on
the sale of beer, but there were about
dozen Democrats who stood ready 4"
vote for the bill if it had been necessary
in order t. pass it Several Republican
members from the cities either
voted "no" or lodged, which lef'
the bill two votes short of enough
to pass it; whereupOn two Democrats
promptly came forward and supported
it. The Democratic policy was to ap
pear on the record as against the bill,
but no. To defeat it. They we've afraid
to assume the responsibility of beating
the bill taxing salooas, which they knew
to be very popular IN the rural districts
| aud among the church members of their
party, bat unpopular with the doggery-
keepers and the loafers they control, who
| all vote the Democratic ticket solid.
They were therefore in ticklish POSI-
ton, and felt happy when they found
that they would only be required t. fur
nish two votes u make the Scott bill a
law. The bill will hereafter take care
of Itself; there is no danger of it being
repealed by any future leg
islature or the amount of
the tax reduced The only change will
be to increase the tax. Two or four
years hence the tax on whisky will be
raised to $500 or $500. The drinking
classes will support the Scott bill be-
cause it will yield some two millions OF
municipal revenue for the support of
the police, the schools aud the poor,
and at the sane time reduce the number
and improve the characters of the sa-
| looms The temperance men will OPP
pose the repeal of the law for exactly

portion of the saloon keepers will en-
dorse it because it VIII suppress good
