colonies from the mother country,
mother whose only use for her child
was the wringing of burdcnsome taxes,
without representation. That bold act,
the declaration, made this, our organiza-

Delaware in sustaining that daring
defiance, be il our duty TO rescue from
oblivion those who sacrificed TO sustain
the deed that proclaimed liberty

cause to be proud OF the acts and heroism

Reform In Liquor Traffic.

On and after May 10 next licenses is
sued to storckeepers i'll this city to sell
liquor not to be drank on the premises
will cost 5000 a year instead Of $50 as
heretofore. The new rate. which applies
to those whose sales aggregate less than
$4,000 year, was agreed upon by the
excise board on Tuesday. Its adoption
is a salutary. practicable and proper
measure Of excise reform.
1t is salutary because it will tend to
restrict the evil of surreptitious drink
ing in grocery, provision and drug stores
which are patronized by women, and i'll
which the charge for liquor is added to
the cost of household commodities.
1t is practicable. because it will aug
ment the city's excise revenues without
corresponding increase in the number
of saloons or in the amount of liquor
sold
1t is proper, because it will do away
with the unfair distinction which has
heretofore existed between ordinary Sd
looms where liquor is sold openly and
stores where the same article is sold pri-
vately. y.-New York Sun.
