A Visionary Scheme.

A recent issue of the Reformer contain
ed the following:
"The projected trolly railway facilities
have brought forward a number of
schemes looking not only in the direction
of reCreative summer resorts, but in a
practical business way as well. No doubt
tracts of land on the lines when built out
side the village limits will be opened up
to the home seeker on the most advanta-
geous terms, and this will be boon to
the working class and helpful to the rail
way projectors. Until this move is made,
and in order to obliterate a serious bar IN
the way OF expansion of village growth in
a natural direction, the Reformer would
suggest to the property owners on either
side of County street, and especially those
on the north side, that a subscription be
taken up, to which the village would
probably subscribe also, to defray the ex-
pense of leveling off the old Glastonbury
railroad bed between North street and
the Hathaway bridge to street grade and
and the laying of the electric railway rails
in the center of the street, with drive
way on either side. We estimate the cost
at one thousand dollars, since it is prob.
able that the dirt in the embankment
would just about bring the street to grade
We believe the village would be willing
to pay as much as five hundred dollars
toward the prpject Some idea of the SO.
riousness of this bar to the expansion OF
the village in northerly direction may
be gathered from the fact that building
lots are held at $4O0 on the south side and
at 5000 on the north side. The improve
ment suggested would enhance the value
of the property ON the south side at least
fifty per cent. and on the north side a
hundred and fifty per cent We will
guarantee that the railway company will
allow this improvement to be made pro-
vided it is done without expense to the
company and before its new rails are laid.
When the new rails are laid the Opportu.
nifty will have gone by"
AS far as we can learn the RefOrmer is
indulging in some moonshine. The car
tracks of the Glastonbury road are on an
even grade, and practically on the estab-
lished street grade at the North and
Park street crossings, at the head of Ma
pie street, and at the Branch street cross
ing at the Hathaway bridge, the railroad

DR.. NICHOLS ACQUITTED.
He is an ex-Secretary Of State and
He Was Tried Under the Liquor

He is an ex-Secretary Of State and
He Was Tried Under the Liquor
Law.
The jury, after being out twenty six
bOurs in the liquor-nuisance case against
DIR. George Nichols, of Mortified, re-
turned a verdict of not guilty at 7.30
o'clock, Wednesday evening.
The case has caused widespread inter
est as DR.. Nichols a number of years
ago terminated a service of IS years as
Secretary of State. He was indicted by
the Grand Jury year ago for keeping a
liquor nuisance in his drugstore.
The State relied upon two sales-one
J. R. Lyon who testified that in January
or February, 1894, he purchased one. half
pint OF whiskey at the drug store of
Nichols & Sanborn for medicinal pur-
poses, he having a cold at that time.
The other man teEtifed that in the spring
of, 1892 he purchased at the store in ques-
tion one quart of alcohol for medicinal
use. George G. Sanborn, who manages
the store, admitted that he made the
sale to Lyon. He would not contend
against the other, as he had pleaded
guilty to both sales year ago and was
fined therefor, but claimed that sales
mad been contrary to the express orders
of DR.. Nichols. 1t appeared that the
business had been conducted as cor
poration organized August 11th, 1898,
consisting of three persons, of which
Sanborn held twelve shares, DR.. Nichols
twelve, and Mrs. Nichols one share-par
value of stock, 800 per share. DR..
Nichols testified, in his own behalf, that
he knew nothing of the sales, which
were against his express orders. 1t was
conceded by the defence that the store
was public place and that the govern
ment licenses obtained were with the
respondents knowledge. States Attor-
ney Stanton was assisted by W. A. Lord
in the prosecution. Frank Plumley and
Z. Henry Powell for the respondent.
Judge Thompson presided.

The Burlington Free Press admirably
states the position of itself and of all
thinking supporters of the prohibitory
law of the State, and the conditions with
which we are confronted, when it asserts
that The prohibitory law enables every
community 60 do what it chooses with
the liquor traffic. In many of our rural
towns and smaller villages it practically
abolishes the saloon; and it answers its
main purpose so we'll in so many of these
that if every considerable village in the
State we're to send to the Legislature a
representative pledged to fight the law,
they could not make a beginning towards
repeating it. In other towns it is made
to serve the purpose of keeping the traf-
tic in check, and repressing in measure
the vice and misery resulting from drink,
though it cannot or at least does not
abolish the secret bar and hidden saloon.
In two or three of the larger places-of
which Burlington is not One-the law,
we fear, is virtually dead letter. But
wherever any pretence of enforcement is
made, and throughout the State as a
whole, the law removes from the drunk
ard the temptation of the open bar and
of the saloon window filled with the al
lruements to his appetite for strong
drink. 1t makes the liquor traffic dis
reputable; and the universal opposition
to it on the part of all liquor dealers,
small and great, within our State and
outside its borders, proves that it les
sens their business and profits. 1t does
not work miracles. 1t does not eradi-
cate, though we believe it lessons their
use of Intoxicating beverages. The most
serious charge brought against it, is that
it tends to lessen moral effort on the side
of temper ance, by substituting for such
effort reliance on the statute, which,
however, will never enforce itself, and
could not take the place of moral effort
if it did. 1t is but means to an end. 1t
is not perfect statute, or a specific
for the cure of intemperance and human,
frailty and depravity. But it is the lawy
and the only law we have, or are likele
to have in this State in our day, for the
repression of traffic, which is found to
need repression in every civilized nation
and community on the globe.
