THE DEMRND FOR HIGH LICENSE

No person is logical in insisting +hat
! re has a right to transact business
at the expense of the peace and order
OF the community. The claim that
the enactment of the high license or
dinance would deprive anyor
of the privilege of earning
living. is absurd and ridicnl ,u>.
The liquor traffic is subject to
regulation everywhere, and the method
invariably adopted for regulation
comes through the power of the n1u-
nicipality to levy taxes.
An adequate charge for license to
sell liquor gives value to the privilege
and engenders responsibility on the
holder. A high license would thin
out the dives, if not exterminate them.
This is what the people want. The
people, through their agents and serv-
ants in the city council, can set value
on the privilege of selling liquor, and
those who are not disposed to pay the
price need not do so.
The majority of the people of this
town are much more interested in
maintaining Tlcson's reputation as an
orderly community, in seeing the jails
empty, in seeing peace and order and
sobriety, than they are in corraling.
the votes controlled by the dives on
election day. If person can not
afford to pay $500 year for the priv
ilege of selling liquor there is nothing
to prevent him from engaging in some
other business less dangerous to tie
life of citizens and the peace of the
community.
The matter of high license is not an
abstruse problem in the science of
government. 1t is more of a moral
than of a political question. 1t is
simply a matter of practical reform
Three murders committed within
month by murderers issuing from dens
where poison is sold in the guise of
stimulant aroused the community.
Public Indignation reached the boiling
point. There was talk in some i'll
advised quarters of resort to mob law.
to inflict summary justice. 1t was this
that induced level-headed people 10
demand high license in order to more
thoroughly regulate the liquor traffic
II high license should be defeated and
further outbreaks of crime should en-
sue, the people will know where to
place the responsibility.

at-home girl gets none" If it be said
that the proposer ought to be in posi-
ton to support the other party, and
that no one can properly propose
without an adequate income, that linn
itation will apply to men as we'll as to
women. If applied rigidly there would
be few proposals from men, since most
bridegrooms are penniless. Granting
that the right of proposal goes with
the larger income, nothing can be said
against a growing custom to which
Mr. Hyde refers. IF a rich woman"
he says. wants a bright young hus-
band, a doctor, a lawyer, she practic-
ally proposes to him and they are mar
ried. This is such a recognized fact
that few years ago a young man
came to me and asked my advice as to
the profession he should enter. L
want one he said, in which | will
/ have an opportunity of meeting a rich
woman who will fall in love with me
and marry me-. Horrible? Not bit
more than girl selling herself for
money. The young man I refer to
was very poor, but he was intelligent
land persistent, and in the end he mar
ried fortune of 100000"
Once concede the equality or supe-
riority of woman, and you can offer no
objections to being proposed to. If a
man should refuse, what of that? Do
not women refuse men every day?
The feminine proposers, even if re-
fused, is entitled to respect, since she
had an equal right to tell her love.
AS for post-nuptial reproaches do they
not occur now? Doesn't the male tyrant
often say now: 1T was your wiles
that entrapped me?" Of course "obey''
in the marriage service is an anachron-
ism in the new order of things. "Obey''
implies inferiority and subordination
which no longer exist IF the
woman has the brains of the family
and the income, why" Mr. Hyde asks,
shouldn't she be the head of the
house?" "Since the invention of ma
chinery," he continues, giving the
philosophy of the thing, "deftness and
intuition have taken the place of brute
strength; consequently the mems
places are being given to women
You see this particularly in factory
towns. The big mills no longer need
the strength of men to run them, and
the proprietors prefer to employ women
because they are more deft and pains
taking. The man stays at home and
takes care of the children, or else they
are put to board. Do I blame the
modern woman? Not bit of it. She
has been forced into this by the action
of the men themselves. She is noble,
ambitious, enterprising, and there is
nothing she can't do if she puts her
mind to it. But if she works she
ought also to have her rights-the
right to vote, the right to propose"

Checks For the Communion Table.

Checks For the Communion Table.
The author of The Sabbath In Puri-
tan New England" mentions custom
which prevailed in several New Eng
land churches that made it the duty
of the deacons to walk up and down
the aisles OF the church at the close OF
each service and deliver to every per-
son who in their judgment was fitted
to commune a metal check, which en-
titled him at the next celebration of
the Lords supper to join in the sacred
ordinance.
On the communion Sabbath it was
the deacons' duty to see that ev
cry one who presented himself at the
Lords table had this check and to col
lect it from the communicate before
passing to him the bread and wine.

Workingmen will hardly be persuad-
ed that unions are detrimental 70 their
interests by the arguments of such
horny-handed toilers as John w
Gates. Mr.. Gates is not yet recog-
nized leader of labor, and it is doubtful
that his views of the relations between
workmen and their employers will
commend themselves equally to both
parties. He may be correct in his
statement that Tabor unions are as a
rule obnoxious to employers" but that
is not likely to be accepted by work
men as good and sufficient reason for
abolishing the unions Neither are
laborers to be convinced by the testi-
mony of a gambler in the grain market
that their leaders are moved by purely
selfish motives.''

TIC English Crown Ruby.

The ruby Of the English crown is
famous in popular estimation, but-his-
tory apart-what does the connoisseur
say as to it's value? asks the London
Chronicle. Is it a ruby or is it only a
fine aud large spinel? Some people
call a spinel spinel ruby, but Spinel
is not ruby. The stone last named,
when it is Of more than three and
half carats in weight and fawleSs all
through, is mere precious than per-
feet diamond of the same size. When
1t is considerably larger, its value is
not TO be estimated and may be any
thing, according to the passion of the
collector. But the spnel, a much less
hard crystal, even when it reaches the
weight of four carats. is valued at
half the worth of a four carat dia-
mond. There are famous royal rubics,
but that which flames in the royal
crown is, according to a common rumor
among experts. the lowlier spinel.
