Discrepancy in Liquor Arguments.

Those who are opposed to the prohibi-
tory law in Vermont claim that it is not
enforced and yet they will gravely inform
Won that big hotels can not be made to pay
in Vermont as in other States on account
Of the law against liquor selling, and
they insist that it would be money in the
pockets of our people to have license
law for that would increase business.
There is a manifest discrepancy here
somewhere, but the man who argues in
favor of the sale of liquor does not always
see the illogical nature of his statements,
or the inevitable conclusion to be drawn
therefrom. 1t is not against the prohibit
tory law alone, however that arguments
of this nature are urged but even in Ii
cense New York the same argument is be-
ing used to show that the metropolis is
suffering from the enforcement of the law
against the sale of liquor on Sunday,
The New York hotels sell liquor with lit
tie if any restraint during six days of the
week, and yet the hotel managers of the
metropolis are quoted as saying that the
enforcement of the law against the Sun
day sale of liquor is playing havoc with
the hotel business. one hotel IS said to
have had four guests last Sunday as COM
pared with thirty-seven a year ago the
same day, while the clerk of one of the
prominent hotels says the enforcement
Of the law has reduced its business fully
fifty per cent These men would therefore
have the law against the Sunday sale OF
liquor repealed.
The only legitimate conclusion that re-
suits from arguments OF this nature is that
no restraint should be placed on the sale
OF liquor. There is no half way stopping
place. If the rum traffic is right and NOR
al and harmless, we have no right to limit
the sale of liquor any more than the sale
of wheat, or milk or maple syrup; much
less have we any right to interfere with
personal liberty" by saying that one
man shall sell and another shall not. II
the rum traffic Is however, wrong and de-
basing and destructive of what is bright
est aud best in man, as is conceded by all
Intelligent persons, then it is TO be pro-

Ocean Frcights and Ship Canals.

1t is generally known that ocean freights
are comparatively cheap, but compare
lively few people have any adequate idea
Of the influences which are tending to
still further depress ocean freight rates.
The construction of gigantic freight ships
makes II possible to transport on one trip
an astounding quantity of freight which
would load number of vessels of an ear
lier decade. Here for example is a par
tial list of freight carried from this coun-
try to Liverpool by the new White Star
steamer Georgia on the last trip There
were 80 cattle, 1900 sheep, 1900 quarters
beef PIG, 900 bushels of wheat and corn.
$50 bales OF cotton, 1000 sacks -four, l 500
bags of oil cake 100000 cases and boxes
bacon 800 barrels provisions, 5000 pack
ages lard. $500 barrels resin, zoo barrels
glucose, 1000 cases canned goods, 800 cases
soap, 400 barrels wax, 800 barrels bark eX-
tract, 1000 barrels oil, 100 tons wood, 5000
packages acetate of lime, $50 barrels oxide
of zinc, 10000 packages cooperage stock
1t is not probable that ship canals will
make it possible in our day for ships of
the size of the George to go from the
ocean to the Great Lakes, but deep water
ways OF the size of those proposed would
enable large transatlantic vessels to
pass to and from the Great Lakes, thus
assuring a low freight rate, and enabling
our Western grain fields and producers
to compete with those Of other countries
to good advantage, 1t follows of course
that manufacturers in cities along the
deep water way will secure the benefit of
cheap rates on freights for goods and
products that are for the export trade.

Next Tuesdays Elections.

Various considerations combine to render
the elections which take place one week
from to-day of unusual interest for an off
year in politics. In the first place these
are the last state elections to be held pre-
vious to the formal opening Of the pres-
Dental campaign next season, and their
nearness in point of time TO the national
contest naturally leads the public to look
to their outcome for some indication of the
drift of popular sentiment regarding ma
tional issues and policies.
Interest in the approaching elections has
also been augmented to a marked degree
by tho unusual and varied local issues of
Importance made prominent in the diff
ferent states. In New York the excise
issue is only second in public estimation
to the war upon the Hill and Tammany
machines, and the contest has taken on
national interest. In Massachusetts
number of state issues including the con-
troll of corporations, and home rule for
cities have oVershadowcd all questions of
national policy to a considerable degree,
and national interest in the Bay States
election has also been increased by the
opposition of the American Protective as
ISOLATION to Gov. Greenhalge, the rcpub-
lican candidate. In Kentucky the free
SILVER question has entered largely into
the campaign, driving sound money demo-
Gratis into the republican ranks and threat
ening to permanently erase old party
lines: while the war against German in
Maryland has engaged the attention of
the people to the exclusion OF almost
every other issue.
Ohio is in reality the only State in which
national issues have enjoyed their old time
prominence in the campaign now drawing
to a close, but even in the Buckeye State
local and State issues have risen 20 UNI
usual prominence. 1t is evident, therefore,
that as indicators of the trend OF popular
sentiment regarding national politics
the election returns next Tuesday night
will not be as unerring as would have been
the case had national issues overshadowed
all other questions in the various States.
in a general way, however, a clean
sweep for the republicans in the Novem-
Der elections would be accepted by the
public as omen favorable TO that party
in the presidential election next year. and
would itself help toward that end, while
unexpected democratic success in the
various States would Indicate reversal
OF public opinion which produced a Verita-
November, 1894.
certain results oil the election next Iues-
day could however be accepted as almost
conclusive IN regard to their influence upon
national politics. If, for example, Col.
Bradley should lead the republicans of
Kentucky to victory. it would render pos
sible, if not probable, the transfer of the
Blue Grass State to the republican column
in the presidential contest and there are
some who predict that such an outcome

in every possible way.

hlblted in every possible way.
Tho present effort to discredt the pro-
hbitory law in Vermont will undoubtedly
result in a. more stringent enforcement Of
the law. Public sentiment is liable to be
come quiescent in the matter of enforcing
laws until some unusual occurrence calls
attention anew to the need of action.
Sentiment in Vermont is overwhelmingly
in favor of the prohibition of the liquor
traffic, and the officers who are elected fo'
the purpose of prosecuting offenders viii
do well to take notice and govern them
selves accordingly.

this IS not difficult to believe in view of
the sowness with which the Spanish
forces have overcome the rebels at Nari-
