PERCENTAGE TOO STRONG.

THE percentage of saloons on CONNER
cial street in this city, to the ordi-
nary business lines on the same thor
oughfare, is far too high. The city au-
thorities should take a hand in regulat-
ing the traffic so as TO keep the main
avenue of the city upon basis Of gen.
eral mercantile dealing and put the
"wet goods" upon percent per block

that whisky is the main industry here
and ordinary merchandising the excep-
tion. The merchant in ordinary goods,
as well as his patrons, have some claim

that every vacancy occurring upon Com
mereial street is snapped up for liquor
stand, the number of them is getting to
be obviously too great. The plea for
their abatement is all in favor Of the
city. The revenue accruing from one
new joint is nullifed by the dropping
out of some other, and the city is no
better off; in fact, is worse off for the
very presence of the additional saloon in
the midst Of its business mart. The
fact that Portland brewery is behind
half Of the new ventures is another rs-
proach to the business. There is
heavy local brewery investment in the
city that is entitled TO consideration

row, the position of the Republican
party must not be understood. 1t
stands for the enforcement of law as
applied to the extremes of liquor traffic
and to glaring phases of public immortality
along all lines. 1t stands for the better
financing of the city. 1t stands for alb
solute, honest, capable, clean, fair and
wholesome city government; for the
putting of responsible men in place and
requiring instant and regular account
ing for public trusts; for putting the
city back within her charter limit of in.
debtedness and keeping her there; for
recognizing the police force and putting
in chief capable of handling it with
some degree of aptitude for the service;
for maintaining the city government up
on q less costly system, and for living
within the municipal income. These are
the principapl items of public conten-

tion for which the party stands and for
which it, will fight till the night of the

GRAIN VERSUS GRAPE.

1t is well known that the climate of
the British Isles is more favorable to
the consumption of alcoholic stimulants
than our climate. We expect the Brit.
ish to drink more per gullet than we
do, and they have always lived hand.
somely up to our expectations We
have lihed the statistics of Britiih
drinking because they make us seem
temperate by contrast. They are fall
ing off little in this particular. This
years report, like that of several years
Immediately preceding it, tells of de-
creased consumption of wines, spirits
and besr. Eithss our cousins are
feebler than they were and cannot carry
so much rum or they are wiser than
they were and do not want so much, or
they ara poorer and cannot buy so
much. At any rate, they drink less of
most things. There is an increasing
demand for port wine of a modern sort
considerably lighter than the port that
in the last century gave most solvent
Englishmen the gout, and, among
spirits, brandy is as much drunk as
ever. In that there seems to be evil
dence of a disposition to substitute
grape products for grain products,
which is a gain in sentiment, and very
likely TO heaIth.-Harper's Weekly.
