great island fortress of Sveaborg,
which defends the sea approaches to
Helsingfors For more than twelve
hours there has been heavy cannon
ade at the fortress, interspersed with
volleys of rifle shooting. The sound
Of cheering among the soldiers was
also distinctly audible in Helsingfors.
1t all indicated that fighting was in
progress during the whole night be-
tween the mutineers and the loyal
troops. 1t is impossible to reach the
fortress, but it is said upon authority
which is not doubted that there are
several hundred dead and wounded
The cause OF the mutiny Is reported
to have been the death Of a soldier in
the battalion Of sappers and miners.
His comrades claimed that his death
was due to i'll treatment. They rose
and we're joined by the artillerymen.
Together they outnumbered the loyal
infantry troops who supported their
officers.
The infantry from the Skatudden
barracks, which stand on the sea front
in Helsingfors, were Immediately or
dered out. Two torpedo vessels lying
at anchorage off the city thereupon
opened with their rapidfring guns
against the barracks. shooting over
the heads Of the people gathered upon
the sea front and causing tremen-
dous panic.
The greatest excitement prevailed,
but the socialistic workmen and the
red guard of Helsingfors were all
highly elated over the outbreak. They
threatened to take advantage of the
situation and proclaim general strike
for the purpose of tiefng UP the rail-
roads. At the latest report the for
tress at Sveaborg is completely in the
hands Of the mutineers.

DEALERS ASSO.
TO FIGHT new LAW.
State Organizer Reports That Bish-
ops Act Robs Liquor Dealer
of Independence.

The twenty-second annual conven-
ton of the New Jersey State Liquor
Dealers association will take place at
Elizabeth, September 10 and 90.
In his annual report State Organ
izer Joseph H.. Buckridge says, in
part: THE association has mighty
enemies to combat. They are known
by many names, but come together
Systematically both state and nation,
to force unjust and radical restric-
tons upon the liquor industry. The
association must be alive and not I'M
derrate the danger which faces them
in New Jersey.
Protection against fanaticism and
blind bigotry is only accomplished
through cooperation. Careful de-
liberation on protection lines is nee
essary. Offensive tactics are recon-
mended.
THE bishops bill went into effect
July 4, the day on which indepen-
dence was proclaimed for all citizens;
for all except the legitimate liquor
dealer. On appeal to the supreme
court as to right of removing screens
and distractions, that court held the
bill in all its parts constitutional, and
recites in decision: A license is not a
contract. 1t is a mere privilege. Sa-
loonkeepers have no rights except by
courtesy of police.
Military ridden Russia is an abso-
Lutte government; and the state of
New Jersey is, according to it's SUI
preme court, absolutely governed by
the courtesy of the police Let us
hear nj more about graft when
courts really invite it by such deci-
sion. The saloonkeeper pays heavy
license, and must also wink at the
police.
1.-The hardships of the existing law
are such that a strenuous political
campaign will be waged for the pur-
pose of forcing the legislature to rec
ognize the heaviest taxpayers of the
state, and, according to them privi-
leges that other Industries enjoy
without being compelled to resort to
these tactics. There is every reason
to believe that the liquor law will be
an important factor in the campaign
