The matter Of accepting or declining

The applications for guns are coming

Augusta has an opportunity to have

that the people generally would iiber-

have the guns here at any price.

beautiful than Augustus, with its

ON PROHIBITION LAW.
Work on the Liquor Problem Reviewing Re.
suits in Several States.

Numerous inquiries are made by let
ter to State Librarian Carver for infor-
nation respecting the workings of the
Maine prohibition law, and statistics
fects
The law has been in operation since
1851, with a short intermission. No eff :
fort has been made in the State to
compile statistics showing it's effects in
relation to the increase or decrease of
crime. or as to it's effects upon the in
dustrial interests of the State. But the
works noted below in the State library
contain the only statistics available in
reference to the matter and the conclu-
sions arrived at in the investigation of
the liquor problem.
The report of the royal commission
on the liquor traffic in Canada can be
found at the State library, in seven
large volumes. This commission was
appointed in 1892 Sir Joseph Hickson
was appointed chairman. They inves-
tigated the liquor laws of the United
States and various other countries and
gathered such statistics and data as
could be obtained. These. with the con-
clusions arrived at by the commission
ers. were embodied in this report. The
first six volumes contain the evidence
collected by the commissioners; the
seventh, the summary of their work
There is another work just published
entitled The Liquor Problem in It's
Legislative Aspects" by Frederick w.
Wines and John Koren. under the di-
rection of Charles w Eliot, Seth Low
and James C. Carter the sub-commit-

publishers.
This book contains an investigation
dispensary system of South Carolina;
the restrictive system in Ma assachu-
sets; the liquor tax system of Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Indiana: and the
local option law of Missouri.
While the believer in prohibition may
not believe in all the conclusions ar
rived at he will be Interested in the
facts and figures gathered in this work
which indicate the results of the differ
ent kinds of liquor laws.
The general conclusion arrived at by
this commission was that no liquor law
of any description has been entirely
satisfactory in it's workings.

location has been determined and the
carpenterinE work will be commenced

such as are wanted. They are to be of
southern pine and high, as the stand
will be large and the roof sufficiently
raised above the main floor of the
stand to give the music plenty of
chance to get out.
The stand will be placed at the
southern end. yet leaving sufficient
room at the extreme point for placing
any cannon, should it be decided to
do so. 1t will be sexagonal, each of
the sides eight feet in length, thus
giving about As feet of sitting room

AS has before been stated and as is
generally well known. thewet spring and
summer which has passed has not been
conducive to sanitary conditions, and

in the world unless active measures
will be taken to prevent.
The board proposes that all sewers be
flushed out, cesspools looked after, AMI
to make a general all around crusade
against open vaults and surface drain
age.
The matter has become a serious one
and the board trusts in the co-opera-
