WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 81, 1888.

For doing the right thing at the wrong
time and the wrong thing at the right
time the democrats must be commended.
Unable to see that public sentiment is
against the liquor traffic, and that its reg
ulation and restriction are demanded by
the community, it is announced that the
democratic assembly this winter at Madi-
son will make the attempt to reduce the
license of saloons back to the low sum
that used to be charged. The democrats
feel that they might be open to the charge
of direlection of duty if they allowed the
present saloon license of $75 to stand un-
challenged by them and hence this
effort in order to put themselves all right
on the record We commend this con-
templated action in favor of free saloons
to the careful consideration of the Prohi-
bitionists through whose action we are in
debted for the Democratic Assembly that
now looks down so benignly upon us in
this state. Prohibition interference seems
to mean an increased flow of whisky and
a multiplicity ofrum shops. Some profess
to see that public interests would be bet
ter served by increasing the license of
liquor establishments to 5000 rather than
by reducing them to a mere nominal
sum.
