INSTEAD OF PROHIBITION IN VERMONT

In his first message 10 the General Assembly
Governor Mccullough of Vermont inevitably
gives the chief place 20 the subject which Writ
uaiIy monopolzed public attention throughout
an extraordinary campaign. For fifty years.,
he says, prohibition has been the policy Of the
State The mandate comes up now from the
s'people to their legislators commanding them TO
formulate and 10 submit 10 them for their de-
session some other system
The Governor does not directly outline a local
option, high license law for the consideration
az the legislature but his suggestions, though
mostly put in the interrogative form. convey
pretty clear idea as to the general features
which he hopes 10 ind in any measure presented
for his approval. II is probably fair 10 con-
Guide that he thinks the vote on license or no
license should not be taken in any town or
municipality Oftener than once in three to Eve
years; that IL should be taken AZ special cleo
fions ordered for that purpose; that It would he
wise 70 make every license conditiona. on a
petition OF a majority of the property holders
in the municipal block m which II authorizes
the sale Of liquor; that a majority Of the legal
voters OF any town subdivision OF a city
should be allowed 10 demonstrate against Ii
sensing or continuing the license Of a specified
person; that no license should be granted for
longer than year; that the number OF licenses
should not exceed one for every thousand Al
hshitants; that licenses should be prohibited
within certain distance of any church school
house, theatre. public building or park, and that
an ample bond and a certificate OF good charac-
Ter should be required OF every applicant Be
EOnd these strong indications OF opinion, the
Governor positively declares that license fees
should be graduated and made to produce a
large public revenue. and that sales TO minors or
intoxicated persons, or on Sundays and holidays
or in connection with any public entertainment
should be forbidden. IL will be seen from these
specifications that the Governor is clearly con-
WINGED that the people Of Vermont do not want
'sDything like wide open" State. and no doubt
he is right.
one OF Governor McCullough's more emphatic
recommendations is worthy Of general attention
and approval IL is this:
AS 10 the licensing body or authorities, il has
been well saic that judicial purity and reputa-
zion for purity are far more important than
discreet Licensing IL IS OF the utmost i'm
portance that courts and Judges should be kept
20 far removed from politics as possible. This
matter OF licensing, therefore, should be in
trusted 20 some other department or 20 boards
specially raised up for that purpose, and which
boards should have stability and Independence

NEWsBoYS AND BOoTBLACks.

Mr.. Brace, of the ChildTens Aid Society, an
authority in such matters, and one Of long and
wide experience. is reported as saying that
Italians are dsplacing the urchns of other races
in backing boots and selling papers in
our streets. Mr.. Brace should know whereof
he speaks. Nevertheless. the New-YOrker who
buys the daily journals any afternoon or even
ing. he looks in the bright, keen faces of the
youngsters who call out "Ex-Trees! does not
find in most instances any marked resemblance
TO the cherubs Of Raphael.
Undoubtedly there are troops OF Italians, old
and young, who polish leather and deal in pa
pers; but hosts of little fellows Of American or
Irish birth or descent may be found in every
borough Of New-York selling papers at almost
every street corner. Not great many German
boys found among these smart, pushing
lads. For some reason not wholly clear the
scion of Teutonic stock is not numerous among
the newsbOys. and the future voters of African
complexion are comparatively few and far be-
tween.
1t is evident everywhere that the backing Of
boots has been surrendered largely to the de-
scendants Of .Eneas and Romulus. but In the
sales of newspapers America and Ireland are
apparently not yet driven of the field.

EAST SIDE PROGRESS.

One of the most trustworthy signs of improve
ment in the congested tenement house district
of this city is the spirit of independence which
is gradually growing there The thousands OF
wretcned creatures who iocked to this country
some years ago when immigration from Russia
reached nigh water mark. became heavy load
on the Jewish community; and although much
was done for them in the way of securing en-
plOyment for the able bodied, education for the
children and relief for the sick, it was all taken
as a matter of course though these were
among the rights and prerOgatives OF the i'm
migrant. The charitable organizations whose
main object was to help these unfortunate peo-
pie to help themselves were and are still main
tanned at great expense. While some OF the
older beneticiares may have been slow to real
ize that dependence on their more fortunate
neighbors meant degradation. the younger ele-
ment was less dull There are now hundreds
of benefit societies" I'm the crowded district
Every householder contributes his mite TO some
organized charity, and the lodges, societies and
associations have even gone so far as TO send
their contributions TO uptown institutions.
There are people on the East Side, also. who
carry the idea of independence too far. They
are constantly in fear that they are being
patrOnized, and they look with suspicion upon
benefactOr who lives in the fashionable district
But the majority recognize what has been done
for Them and the fact that they begin to take
upon themselves, even in a slight degree, the
burden which their advent imposed upon their
fellows is evidence of progress toward good
citizenship.

ray dearly for a change in the law which might
