Prohibition in Mexico.
Gel Paso Herald.)

Is the prohibition sentiment spread
ing even to Mexico? The state of
Morelia has just enacted law pro-
hibiting the sale of liquor by the
glass to be drunk in the place where
it is bought Liquor may be bought
and sold by the bottle only, and must
be carried away. Many of the states
have largely suppressed gambling T..
the worst sort by stringent laws and
faithful endorsements High license
prevails nearly everywhere in cities,
and the number of saloons in the
various states has been greatly cur
tailed within the last few years.
Police regulations are all the time
being made more strict. The state OF
Chihuahua enforces very close regu-
lations. Gov Creel's views on the
subject of intemperance are well
known. 1t is due mainly to his mi
tiative that the state is one of the
most orderly in the republic. The
saloons are well regulated and closed
at reasonable hours; gambling is
either suppressed or carried on under
close surveillance, and recently the
governor even put stop to the bull
fights at the state capital owing to
the disorders accompanying them
