from the realm of politics; 1t would
save him from the demands of the
Dlackmailer; 1t would give him feel

We, furthermore, contend that NJ
more licenses ought to be issued until
the proportion is not greater than one
for each 500 Of population, so that each
of these licenses would possess a yery
great value.
I'VE also contend that the price paid
by the saloonkeeper each year for the
privilege or doing business should bs
reasonable.
I'VE then insist that, in considera.

mandatory, and that no discretion
should be lodged with any Judge or
licensing board
Treat DRINKS as Criminals.
1t is our idea that for the first con
viction Of the violation of law on the
part of q saloonkeeper or of his en-
ployes in the conduct Of his business
his license would be suspended for n
period of thirty days; and that for the
second conviction his license should
