what Liberty VIII it Abolish 2

Ons Of the pneumatic dynamite guns Of
the pattern designed for the cruiserV Vesuvlus
was recently tried at Fort La Fayette aud
the result was eminent, successful. The
problem is quite we'll solved In relation TO
coast and harbor defences, judging from
the opinions of some of our scientists ~
we'll as from one Of Uncle Jonathan's edit
ors, the London EnDineer, who comes out
IN language as follows: 1--WE may allow
something for pardonable exaggeration and
still we have enough left TO induce the be-
lief that Uncle Sam has got hold of craft
which an iron clad would not care to fight
for the fun Of the thing" We are evidently
making great strides in the improvements
of the day. Look for instance at our rail
roads, steamboats,. telegraph, telephone,
the use Of electricity, with many of our
lesser inventions adopted by the people and
have proven beneficial to the community At
large.
But In the midst Of all this we have
great cancer upon our body polite, the
liquor licensing system, upon which there
is little or no improvement. unless IL should
be high license. which we think only makes
the liquor traffic more powerful, degrading
and debaslng in its consequences and more
injurious to the community. Now whilst
there is so much of our treasure expended
for nloxicants every ) ear, so many families
ruined, so many heart-broken mothers
weeping over their fallen sons who have
become inebreates through the use Of alco-
holic drinks engendered by rum shops and
debasing lager beer saloons. Why do we
suffer all this 1t 1t simply because we
give people the power BY law to live at the
expense Of the morals of the public. Yea,
we sign petitions for license, 90 bail for
rumsellers, become partners in their noto-
rious and debasing practices. Now the
question arises how are we goirg to stop itS
The remedy is very simple. Abolish our
present ridiculous license laws, vote for the
constitutional amendment on the 18th of
June next. Some say that will be throw
ing away our liberty. OF course 1t will be
the means of abolishing the liberty that
some people take, namely, OF virtually
taking the bread frsm poor peoples chill
drsn, clothing them in rags, compelling
their mother, to toll at the wash tub to
earn something to purchase coarse food TO
sustain themselves and offspring. But what
liberty will 1t abolish that 10 beneficial to
the communit,f l know Of none. Are
not oil In we intanhed tn nr0hibit evil? Ger
tainly they should be. OBSERVER.

The Borough election is over and a glance
at the outcome brings To view some very
stern facts. The Democrats were lenient
enough and disinterested enough TO sacrl
flee the best offices for the sake Of the
Mugwumps. The Republicans certainly
have reason to rejoice oyer the result. Bv
supporting the side show they had nothing
TO lose but all to gain, and it's no marvel
that the Republicans always know and
regard the Democrats as being not "up TO
time" A few hundred majority and the
best Offices in the hands of the minority
means treacaerv and lack OF duty. The
party promoters are either treacherous
themselves or are losthe In the trust i'm
posed. It's pity that not ever one who
is 8 Democrat feels it his duty to support
his party's ticket. The Republicans always
do it. Why should not the Democrats
they have the greater number to choose
from and consequently should have as
efficient nominees But this GOODNESS and
indifference must have its cause. Some
body is to blame. The organization seems
10 be rotten at the core and at the mercy OF
those who belong to 1t for the sake OF
avarice. We cannot expect harmony and
good results until treachery 10 eradicated
and the treacherous are deposed.
