impending Disaster.
Blasts From Whisky TrunpetS.

The WAvE.-There has never
been time in the history Of the
trade in beverages when disaster
seemed SO probable. We do not
say this to create unnecessary alarm:
but because it is palpable truth,
as any reasoning observer of events
must see for himself. A wave Of
fanat;cism has risen in thew est and
now threatens to sweep over the
whole country.-New York Retailer.
No ExcUsE.-The Court of APP
peals of the State Of New York refus-
es to recognize drunkenness as an
excuse for crime. If a man volun-
tarily gets drunk and commits a
crime he is held responsible for all
acts performed when in that condi-
ton.

fact that it received $4,000 for IL
quor license last year, voted Mon
day against license. Quincy voted

columns of Faxonia in the Boston

rum soakers" last year took 81, 00G
off the towns poor expenses. The
anti-license men were strongest in
Weymouth, North Scituate, Water
town, Beverly, Hyde Park, Airing
ton, Belmont, Plymouth, Melrose,
Wellesley and Franklin. In Frank
lin only two men were bold enough
to vote for rum.
