Fewer Saloons and More Revenue.

The report OF Excise Commissioners
ANDREWS. HoLME. and DALTON. submitted
to the Mayor on May 8. 1898. year ago.
showed that the total number OF licenses
issued to saloons and restaurants during
the year ending May /. 1898. was 9.is7. and
that the revenue to the city treasury from
them was s1.569.525 The report OF the
present Board of Excise Commissioners.
MURPHY. HoLME. and DALTON. filed with
the Mayor on Friday last. shows the number
OF licenses issued last year to have been
9.02s. and the revenue derived from them TO
have been 81. I'll. COL. In other words. not only
is the number OF drinking places. saloons or
restaurants. in New York city less by over
400 than it WAS year ago. and not only
has there been an increase OF over $4,000
In the revenue. but there are actually fewer
drinking places than at any time since 1885:
and the public revenue thus derived has in
creased from s6s2.OOO In that year and
$3.50. 900 the year after until IL is now In ex-
cess Of s1.7O0.OOO.
This salutary and satisfactory. but SEEM
ingly paradoxical result Is TO be explained
as follows: The fee for the ordinary saloon
or three-liquor license. as 1t Is called. has
been raised from $500 year to $3.50; the
fee for saloons licensed to sell only ale and
beer has been raised from $50 to $50. That
accounts for the increase In the city's rev.
enue. The cutting down In the number OF
licenses granted TO small saloons accounts
for the decrease In the number of public
drinking places. Another simple. excellent.
and practical rule OF recent Excise Boards
in New York city has worked very well. 1t
Is this: No license is issued to a drinking
place newly established anywhere. except
on the surrender OF the license of another
place abandoned as a saloon. BY this means
the number OF saloons Is kept stationary;
and although the population Of New York
Is steadily increasing. and especially so in
the wards up town. the number Of saloons
does not increase. and the ratio OF them to
tho population steadily diminIshes.
This practical remedy for one Of the
abuses OF liquor selling in all large cities.
effected without fuss. outcry. or sensation
alism by the Excise Commissioners Rp-
pointed by Mayor GRANT and his successor
is well worthy OF consideration by earnest
men everywhere.
The essential benefits Of reasonably high
or higher license are being gradually -
cured In New York without disturbance Of
existing regulations. and without political
elAmor. By successive Democratic Boards OF

TAYLOR began the erection OF Fort Brown. on

position was critical. he determined to fight at
all hazards. The battle began about noon with
q heavy artillery fire and Q cavalry charge

were armed with long lances TO which were
attached brilliant colored ribbons and as they
were MAGNIFICENT riders they made an I'm pos
