Tale Of a City.
Facts from Quincy, Mass.

In 1898 this city had been seventeen
years without a dram shop. During that
time it's population had grown from TO-
855 to 23,540; it's valuation from $7,560,3
to $19,236,S 1892; it's savings banks deposits
from $173,950 to $4S8,453; its depositors
in savings banks from $3.50 to 7,411; and
it's number of new houses in process Of
erection from "a to 236; while the amount
paid for support of the poor, with but
1885 population SIS, 415-was decreased
to 1854 Qittle more than one-half) with
the population more than double.
Hon. H. H. Faxon, lifelong resident
of the town, testifies that Quincy under
prohibition has prospered as Quincy I'M
der rum rule never did, and with the
natural explanation that ''every dollar ex-
pended for liquors, as a beverage, comes
out of the landlord, grocer, baker, tailor,
butcher. and others who pursue an hon

The Purpose of Law.
Not to Make People Moral.

You cannot make men moral by law
Paris green doesn't make potatoes
grow, but it kills the vermin that pre-
vent them from growing. Law does
not stop crime, but when the men
behind the law are incorruptible the
evil is lessened. Law is not intend
ed to make men better, but to secure
justice. If I buy bill of goods Of
your merchant and refuse to pay for
it he can sue and force me to pay.
That suit would not make me more
honest, but it secures justice. Law
forces men to be just. Law is to pro-
tect every man, woman and boy. You
cannot reform by law; that work is
for the gospel and the home. But law
protects the weak and secures justice.

Saloon Revenue Argument Punctured.

"This month";" said the Chicago Tri-
bune recently, ''the drinkers and
drunkards Of Chicago are contributing
the little sum of $3,250,000 to the city
hall. For what?" asks the great daily.
Why" it replies, "to give them the
privilege Of spending money for whis-
key and beer during the coming year.
All licenses are now on. The drinkers
and drunkards- are certainly
closely allied, for the former often de-
velop into the latter-must pay $500
license for each saloon.
"True, the saloonkeepers are the
ones who nominally pay the money to
the city collector, but it is simply cash
advanced. The drinkers and drunk
ards will pay them back. They are
good pay-with all save possibly COM
mon trades people like grocers and
butchers. The money handed across
the saloon bars this month alone will
more than equal the $3,250,O00 il IL
censes. Yes, the drinkers and drunk
ards are sure pay. Some could not
stop if they would. These are the
drunkards. Once they were-but par
don us. We have no intention to
preach. We leave that for crank up
in South Dakota.
"A merchant in Coleman, S. D., did
little figuring and published the re-
suits in his advertising space in the
local paper. The Chicago Tribune
paid telegraph tolls on the ad. Here
it is:
Look at this: Three beers a day for
a year would bring into your home: One
barrel of flour, fifty pounds of sugar,
twelve pounds OF corn starch, ten pounds
Of macaroni, ten quarts Of beans, four
underground hams, one bushel of sweet
Of raisins, ten pounds Of rice, twenty
pounds of crackers, one hundred bars
Of soap, three twelve-pOund turkeys, five
quarts of cranberries, ten punches Of
celery, ten pounds of prunes, four dozen
oranges. and twenty-five good beef steaks.
'tBut three beers a day is little. A
man who takes no more is a moderate
drinker. Surely he should not be
made the victim of a crank's dis
course. We will turn from the South
Dakota man and come back to Chicago
for an instant in concluding.
'It has often been said: We could
MT run the city without whisky and
water (the water department receipts
and the saloon license money!. I'm
der present conditions that Is true, but
if we had no saloons we might not
need to spend $3,500,OO0 a year on
police force, and 100000 per annum
for the Bridewell. Nor would we need
