Inn portant Questions before the LeglsIature.

I'm pOrtant Questions Before the Legislature.
To The Ediror the Indianapolis Journal:
There are two important questions that
the people are looking to the present Legis-
lature to act upon. One is the temperance
question, the other the fee and salary law.
For more than twenty years this has been
before the Legislature in some form. 1t has
been equal to bonanza to certain leaders
who can get a bill before the House or Sem
ate hold it there till there is a large amount
of money raised through the ditfere MT couu-
ties of the State to defeat it, then it is al
lowed to rest for a season and the same
thing gone over again. OF course, We would
cast no reflections such sterling patriots
as Brown or Heffren, but the people are
expecting the honest men of all
parUes will unite and pass a law that will put
the county officers on reasonable salaries in
spite of the shylocks who wish to make
money out of it.
AS to the temperance question, there is no
doubt but there can be license law passed
that would be more effective in keeping in
toxicants from the drunkard than any pro-
hibitory law would be.
We want a license law that will allow no
one TO sell or ship liquors but those having
license, and allow no one to get license ex-
cept men of good moral character, and make
it the duty of some one to see that the law is
enforced. The present law is almost a dead
letter because there is no one to enforce it,
and the quart law is the greatest promoter of
drunkenness there is in the State as pretent.

thus sustained would have done the work.
This would also save the inconvenience
which so much embarrasS the city at the

ticable leu him look over the ground 1t
must be done, or something else, or our city
will suffer very seriously. J. w. HERvEY
