TEMPERANCE LECTURE.
One Glass of New Britain Whisky
Better Than "a Speech.

One Glass of New Britain whiskey
Better Than speech.
Since the no-hcenSe law went into effect,
says the New Britain Herald, and the open
sale of liquor ceased, the quality Of
whiSkey and other intoNicants of the same
kind has deteriorated terribly. Adultera-
ton is carried on to such an extent that
rough on rats" is a splendid drink when
compared with some of the So-Called
whiskey served out in this city.
The profits of the business have of
course Increased in proportion. If the
stuff they call and sell as whiskey cost
more than 81 gallon the saloon keepers
are robbed. This they retail at about $40
a gallon, making profit of - on every
gallon they sell. Sometimes the whiSkey
is merely diluted with water until it is
nothing but memory, but more often the
cheapest kind of alcohol is colored mp to
look like the real article. \ glass Of this
connection has the same effect on the
throat if piece of red hot sandraper
had been drawn up and down it once or
twice. Its effects on the brain cannot be
described. but one drink with it As a basis
is better than all the temperance lectures
in the world. If the man does not die he
Is cured.

it was deemed advisable to discontinue the

quite a number of families who, during

bage. Then again there are a number of
out of town people keeping pigs that will
be glad to get swill during the winter to
feed them. With the exception of an cpl
demic of measles in a mild form our town
at present is very free from disease, and it
now remains altogether with our citizens
whether 1t shall remain SO or not. Filth
about the premises produces disease, and
while We have every regard for our seven
physicians. we desire to say that our citi-
zens will find it much cheaper to pay for
one visit from the scavenGer, than for Il
dozen from our physicians. Our health
officers also desire to call the attention to
rules and of borough rules and reglla-

William, KnIbbs Says He should Have
Received the Contract Awarded to
Daniel Altman.
Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
As one of the bidders on the recently
awarded contract for the construction of
the turnpike road near the Branch, kindly
give me space in your paper to relate the
circumstances of the awarding of that con-
tract. 1t was advertised by this commit
tee that all bids should be in by s O'Clock
on the night the bids were to be opened.
Several of those who had put in their esti-
mates were present to see the bids opened
and hear them read. The work was well
under way and my bid had been opened
and read when Daniel Altman rushed into
the room and asked if 1t was too late to
put in bid. Notwithstanding that the
advertised hour had passed the board saw
fit on a vote, to allow this bid to come in.
Here comes the strange part of this queer
system of doing business. My bid was
he lowest, s., 496.20, until Allman's bid
as opened, when il was discovered that
he was Just 500 less than me. Does 1t
NOT look queer that l should be SO much
L. than the other bidders. and that bid
WITCH the board allowed to come in after
mine had been read, was just 500 less. /

rssarv for a man to be present before this
hoard ito defend his rights would GER

hoard have since acknowledged that ii
was a mistake to receive the bid. Why
does not the board do the right thing by q

rules laid down by the board, when thu
