"Have you ever thought" said a IL
quor dealer in this city, ''that ten thou
sand liquor dealers in the city of New
York mean ten times ten thousand
votes?" This is a large statement of a
fact; yet there is no doubt that grOg-
shops and liquor saloons form one of
the most potent political agencies at
work in this city, are that they are
fully represented in the government OF
the city. Anything that will lessen
their number will Sc far be a public
benefit.

Dim ghosts Of men that hover to and fro.
Hugging their bodies round them. like their
shrouds,
Wherein their souls were buried long ago.
They tiampled on their youth and faith and
love,
They cast their hope Of humankind away;
With heavens clear messages they madly

And conquered-and their spirits turned to
