Those Good OId-Fa ashIOned
Folks.

Somehow the people of to-day amt as
taeY used to be.
At any rate, I'm pretty sure they're not
the same to me.
And while there are many Just as good
as those | used to know
There're scores and scores among them
that are only so aud so.
We used to always take man exactly as
he said,
But now it's safe to take him just the
other way instead.
1t does my heart Just lots of good to meet
once in awhile
Some ofthose good old-fashioned folks so
nearly out of style.
[ wouldn't say the world in honesty is
slipping back.
| wouldn't say that christians hunting
grace have lost the track,
l wouldn't say that men to-day are less
the friends Of truth,
Because they seem to differ from the onfs
[ knew IN youth.
Those people please me quite as well as
these meet to-day.
Their hearts and hands were honest and
their lives held little guile
Did those old-fashioned people now so
nearly out of style.
We're wiser than we used to be, we may
be weaker, too;
And good old homespun honesty may less
our hearts Undue
These later days we are all bent on get
ting rich so fast
We haven't time to think of things they
thought of IN the past.
We're wildly STRIVING after gold, we rush
and push and crowd,
And after while well each be wanting
pockets in his shrOud'
But none of us ean e'er outrank within
the afterwhi,e.
Those good old-fashioned people now SO
nearly out Of style.

WHAT TIE l. 5. SUPREME
COURT SAYS ABOUT
CERTAIN RIGHTS.

In an appeal from San Francisco
to the u. $ Supreme Court by Chief
Of police against 8 dealer who sold
whiskey after license hal been re-
fused him, and be imprisoned and
granted writ of AaJeu8 corpus, JUS
tice Field Of the L. S.Suprene Court
in his fled opinion says:
at ia undoubtedly true that it is
the right OF every citizen to pursue
any lawful business, subject ouly to
such restrictions as are imposed up
on all persOos Of the same age, sex,
or condition. But the possession
and enjoyment of this right, and. in
deed, Of eli right3. are subject to
such restr ,ctIons as may be deemed
by the governing authority of the
country essential to The safety,
health peace and good order, and
morals OF the community. Even lib-
erty itself Is not unrestricted by
license to act according to ones own
will. 1t Is only freedom from re-
! straint under conditions essential to
the equal enjoyment Of the same
right by Others. 1t is then liberty
regulated by law"
The Court says the regulations
governing the various pursuits OF
life are almost Infinite, varying with
the nature Of the business, some re-
gulations being designed to lessen
noise, others to protect health, Others
to remove odOrs, &C.. and it would
hardly be necessary to mention this,
| the Court continues, were it not for
the position often taken and yehe.
mentlY pressed that there is some.
thing wrong IN the principle and OBJ
! iectiOnable in similar restrictions
when applied to the business Of sell
! ing by retail Intoxicating liquors. 1t
is urged that as liquors are used as 8
beverage aud the injury following
them if taken in excess is yoluntari
lg Inflicted end is confined to the
party offending, then the sale should
be without restrictions, the Conten
lion being that what a man shal
The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1890-11-20

drink equally with what he shall eat ,
is not properly a matter for legisla-
ton.
There isin this position an as
sumption OF fact which does not
exist-that when liquors are taken
in excess the injuries are confined to
the party offending The Injury, it
is true, first falls upon him in his
health, which that habit undermiues;
in his morals, which it weakens, and
in self-abasement, which it creates.
But as it leads to neglect of business
and waste OF property and general
decentralization it affects those who
are immediately connected with and
dependent upon him. By general
concurrence Of the opinion OF every
civilized and Christian community
there are few sources of crime and
society equal to the dram sbor, where
Intoxicating liquors in small quantl-
ties to be drunk at the time a-e sold
indiscrimluate to all parties apply
ing. The statistics Of every State
show greater amount Of crime at
trIbutable to this than to any other
source. The sale OF such liquors in
this way has therefore been at all
times considered a proper subject of
legislative regulation. For that mat.
ter, their sale BY the glass may Ue
absolutely prohibited. 1t is queF-
tion of public expodlency and public
morality, apd not of Federal law.
There is DO inherent right of the
citizen to sell Intoxicating liquors by
retail, 1t is not a privilege OF a
citizen Of the State or Of citizen of
the United States. In prohibition
or regulation of the traffic discretion
may be vested in officers to whom to
grant and to whom to refuse liquors
The officers may not always exercise
the power conferred upon them with
wisdom OF justice to the parties af-
feCted. This matter ls not one that
can be brought under the CognizaDce
of United States Courts.
The Court Gays that it does not
perceive that the orliance Under
which the prisoner was arrested
violates any provision of the Federal
Constitution or laws, and that as to
the State Constitution and laws 1t is
bound by the decision of the State s
Supreme Court that the ordinance
does not violate them, The order
discharging the prisoner from custo
dy is therefore reversed and the case
remanded with directions to take
further proceedings in conformity
with the opinion of the Court.
