The Effects Of High License-No. 8.

In response to the inquiry of our CORE
spondent "Dryesdale" in his communication
published in the Mail of last week, we have
obtained the following figures from Clerk
Oswald. There is about the same number
of drinking saloons in the county now that
there was before the high license law was
passed. Each one of these is taxed $50 in
addition to the regular State tax, for the
county treasury, producing $3,350 which is
appropriated to the payment OF the court
expenses. In Hagerstown there is an addi-
tional tax OF $50, which produces $4,000 to
the town. 1t is likely that the drinking
saloons of the county are now under better
regulations and there are fewer violators of
the law, We believe, than before. This and
the relief of the taxpayers to the amount Of
six or seven thousand dollars, is what High
License" has go far accomplished in the
county. The amount of the tax here is not
high enough to be prohibitory upon many.
Where high license has been adopted with
that design the tax has been placed at from
$500 to 81 800 or even higher. There are
at present 81 saloons and hotels where liquor
is sold by the drink; OF these 80 are in
Hagerstown. In the county at large there
is one drinking saloon to each 1853 voters.
In Hagerstown there is one saloon for each
90 voters without counting the places which
sell In quantities not less than "a pint

up Salt River, and yet the Judge has the au-
dacity TO ask the public to believe that Faw-
cett was in the interest of Bowie.
= have no doubt, judging from the impor-
tunlty of Fawcetts nightly petitions, even
to the small hours of the morn, not to array
myself against the b. g. o. road-it would
be my political death--that he was request
ed by Judge Bouic, or in his official position
appointed by hiu my special guardian for
that occasion. Finding me to be a refrac-
tory ward, not to be brought into subsection
TO obbyism, the whole kit deserted me and
have pursued me with a bitterness ever
since, therefore it is not to be wondered at
that the disappointed lobbyist of twenty
one years ago could not longer endure the
fury of the storm that ragged in his great
heart, but 1t is to be lamented that he did moi
give vent thereunto before his memory be-
came SO wofully impaired. He has my sin
cere sympathy.

THE TWO GREAT PARTIES

Not unirequently in these times many peo
pie when they stop to think ask themselves
what is the difference between Democracy
and Republicanism. This is u natural oues-
ton and deserves candid answer.
We know that there are two great parties
in the country, and that for some reason the
people Of the country are divided into these
two great parties. 1t is a wise thing that
they are thus divided, but there must be
somewhere body of principles or reasons
on which such division is made or takes
place. tits not haphazard. From the foun-
dation of the government there have been
differences in the constitution of men as well
as of parties and it is altogether probable
that parties are formed because of this differ
ence in the makeup of such men.
There are some who by nature are GEN.
tralizers, they would have a strong govern
ment, they would have monarchy or some

shall. Under the circumstances we could not
do otherwise and live up to our idea of right.
1t is due 10 you that we make some acknowl-

showered upon us-hence we offer
Fine Montagnac Surtouts, with velvet collars,
satin sleeve Innings and double warp Ital-

every purchaser.
On Saturday, October %, 1874, we threw
open our doors 10 the people, soliciting a
share OF their patronage promising to pro-
tect them in every particular. We have kept
the faith and to-day furnish new evidence of
our determination to continue doing so, to
wit:
Newmarket Overcoats, Atwood Melton, silk
sleeve Innings and double warp serge body
lining, at S. each.
We soon learned that we had settled among
a warm hearted, generous people, who took
special delight in aiding an honest effort, and
whose appreciation of right was keenly en-
thusiastic. We, TOO, are enthusiasts when
we have it in our power TO sell
Fine Chincbilla Overcoats, black and brown.
with silk velvet collars, silk sleeve Innings
and full satin body Innings, at $l2 20.
Finding ourselves in the midst of such
charming surroundings, need we tell you how
deep an interest the situation possessed for US
or how earnestly and zealously we set about
1t to make ourselves worthy OF your esteem,
yonr confidence, your patronage. Having this
end constantly in view partly explains why
we offer yoa such tremendous drive in

After remaining with you one year we found
ourselves uBcomfortsbly crowded. We need
ed more room and added floor. This is not
specially surprising when you coma to con-
slider the fact that our goods have always been
fully up 10 the required standard and the
prices exceedingly low. We offer as evidence
of our claim line of
Wild Vale French Diagonal Overcoats, rich
seal brown, with satin facngs, silk sleeve
Innings and double-warp silk serge body
lining, at SIP. s&
The second year of our stay was full of sue
cess Atits close we found it necessary TO
have more room, and another floor was add
ed. 10 say that we were highly gratified is
tame way of expressing it. To show that
we are not forgelful OF past favors we offer
