Liquor Ln,vs In Norway.

New Norwegian liquor laws are sue
ccssful. The Sondag system gives
power to municipalities to grant all
the retail spirit licenses which they
deem necessary to company which
would bind itself to carry on the traf-
ic in the interests of the community,
with n fixed annual return Of not moro
than G per cent. on It's paid-up capital.
In establishing the system the ques-
ton of compensation does not appear
to have presented much difficulty The
|allotmcnts OF tho profits are as follows:
TO the state, G5 per cent; to the mu-
Enicipality, In lieu of large license du-
ties, now abolished, 8 per cent, and
to objects Of public utility operating as
unter-attractions to the public
houses, in towns 0 per cont and in
the surrounding districts 10 per cent.
The profits of the trade under these
restrictions have contributed S7,000,0o(
| for objects OF public interest since tho
| founding OF the system. During tho
/ lust eight years the proportion accru-
| Ing TO the state has been increased ant
