AN ILLOGICAL OBJECTION.

The Journal of Freedom of San Fran.
cisco is much exercised over the high
license movement. The chief objection to
It, in It's view, is that it runs out the poor
rum-seller and erects monopoly for the
rich liquor.seller. There is no point TO
that argument. A monopoly is an ex-
elusive privilege, and high license excludes
none Of necessity, and secures no one in an
exclusive privilege. But, if it were true,
it would not weigh against the arguments
for high license. Where there is such a
multiplicity of saloons as to be dispropor.
tionate to population, measure that
brings the number within reason, so far
from being monopoly, is simply one TO
afford fair dealer protection against the
horde of retailers of poison, and broader
opportunities to conduct decent business.
All the talk about excluding the poor man
from selling rum by license laws that call for
higher fee than generally prevails, ia rub
bish. In ninety nine cases out of every
hundred, the poor seller of hquols is also
the seller of poor liquors, TO check which
should be the desire of all who claim to
sell good liquors. Also in the same num-
Der Of cases the proportion prevails as to
disreputable places, where vice in its low.
est form breeds as in hot bed. But, aside
from these considerations, high license ia a
missioner for just tax. 1t is not high IL
cense to require the liquor traffic to bear a
decent share Of governmental expenses.
It, more than any other business, demands
the special care OF the local authorities,
and there is no dealer who is fair-minded
who viii pretend to deny it. 1t is not be-
cause the business portion of town has in
it more stores, more warehouses, or more
shops, that greater police surveillance is
necessary, but because houses of enter
tainment at night, as in day, in
Vite more people to convivial prac-
tees, with the undeniable result
of greater disturbance of the peace.
High license, as we have said, simply de.
mands the just taxation of business az
contradistinguished from the notorious
under-taxation that now prevails. If, as
result, some cannot conduct the business,
that is no more chan may be said OF many
other vacations which men cannot follow
for want of sufficient capital to conduct
them legitimately and deoently. In short,
high license means bstter order, better
communities, fairer distribution of the bur.
dens of local government, and protection
to the men who sell liquor, but do not
keep miserable dives and death.dealing
nan.traps-the very class the Journal Of
Freedom pretends TO represent, and in
whose behalf it assumes 60 aim shaft at
The advocates of high license, who are tax
ing 20 prominent position in the nation
just now, that it may well alarm the
keepers of dives, and the manufacturers
who supply them with the means to
poison.

lows, had splinters thrust under the nails,
threatened with death, etc. It devel.
ops that the committing magistrate
is fanatic, and rabidly Jew.hating, but
religiously devoted Catholic, and he has
been most urgent in procuring witnesses
for the conviction of the Jews. The pub.
lie prosecutor has become convinced that
she charge, trial and testimony is part of
religious fsnatical scheme to kill off
band OF Jews and brighten all others from
the land, and that brides, torture aud fear
have wrung the purported confessions from
the witnesses. A more horrible plot
than this deliberate attempt to have inno-
cent men and women beheaded, and all for
the cause of religion, it is scarce to
recall. That civilized priests or the men,
bership of any religion of any denomina-
ton can be found in this century, so far
sunk in blind superstition, and SO maddened
by blind intolerance as to urge on q
trial as this has been, by torture, intimi-
dation and the tutoring of witnesses to ties.
tify falsely against those of their own
family, passes comprehension and makes
the indignant blood boil in the veins of
decent men. It remains to be seen if the
Austro. Hungarian Government will dare
to follow up its threat to trace this great

voked to come TO the aid of justice in such
cases.
