What Prohibition Did.

The disastrous CD effects of prohibi-
tion on a town are strikingly illustrat-
ed by the workings of the prohibition
law in Wilmington, the leading North
Carolina seaport, last year. The law
wentinto effect there January I, 1909,
and perhaps in DO other seaport city
has it been so we'll enforced. The re-
suits are that the number of arrests
in 1909 was only 1918 as compared
with 1865 with saloons the year be-
fore; inspite of increased population,
there was q decrease in the number of
deaths and cases Of insanity; bank de-
posits showed the remarkable increase
from $4,000 to Ss,96o,G00 for the
single twelve months, the increase in
bank clearings being greater than for
any other leading southern city except
Atlanta (Which is also prohibition)
the number of building permits and
their value more than doubled; and
in spite of losing $500 license tax on
sixty-three saloons each (and voting
an extra tax for schocls), the total
tax rate was reduced cents son the
