ONE SALOON ENOUGH.

Win u mOueIH DlOCh VI stOISs
taking the place of the old Buchanan
property at the southwest corne o.
Smith and State streets there is but
one site left at the Ave points for g
new building. This is popularity
known as the Kant property, at the
northeast corner Of State and
Smith streets
without a doubt these five points
which mark the intersection OF
State and Smith streets and New
Brunswick avenue, are the most
prominent locations in the city. Ev-
eryone, therefore, is interested as to
the style of the building to be erect
ed and the character of the place that
will occupy such stores that may be
located there.
1t is pretty generally known that
a prominent liquor firm of this place
has already endeavored to secure two
Of the sites on these five points, Thus
far they have failed in their efforts.
The Kant property still remains, and
it is rumored, although only a ru-
nor, that this liquor firm is nego-
tiating for this last site.
AS far as we have been able to
learn no lea has yet been closed
and before it is the EVENING NEWS
wishes to make it definitely known
that it will do all it can to prevent
the locating of any saloon or liquor
house on that corner. We believe
that public opinion, generally, is
against it, and we are convinced that
the opening of another liquor house
on this corner would be greatly det-
rimental to the city's interest.
Perth Amboy, for several years,
has been trying to clean up its ex-
else affairs. There has been a de-
sire on all sides to cut down the
number of saloons, If possible, and
the present excise commissioners
we're elected on a platform which
promised to do that very thing. The
fact that the commissioners have
ignored this promise to the people is
a matter for further consideration.
The point we wish to make at this
time is thai one drinking place, on
the city's most prominent corner, is
enough.
Perth Amboy is growing rapidly
and is taking her place among the
leading cities of the state. We can
lot hope to hold such a position
With a saloon on every corner and
wo at the junction of our main
We have no desire to rival
loboken in this regard,
We wish to inform the public that
!
. liquor firm is endeavoring to Sc
.ure the Kant property, at the north
,ast corner of State and Smith
,treets for a liquor house.
We will further state that the
EVENING NEWS will oppose the
granting Of a license at such a loca-
ton with all the power that real
publicity affords. In this fight, if it
is necessary to make one, we ask the
aid of all friends Of Perth Amboy,
who are proud of their city, and de-
sire to make 1t more attractive to
strangers and a better place to live
in.
We would rejoice to see a hand
| some modern structure erected where
the present unsightly building stands
but one saloon at the FIVE points is
enough.

STUCK TO HIS VESSEL.

Remarkable grit and tenacity were
,hown by the captain of the Ameri-
can schooner Holliswood, which was
found recently waterlogged and help
less by the master of the Norwegian
steamer Harold, in the Gulf of Mex
leo. The master of the Harold took
off all the crew of the Holliswood and
expected Z. G. Walls to follow their
example. But it was all to no pur-
pose, and the Harold resumed her
voyage. Three days later the bat
tered Holliswood was sighted by the
British steamer Parkwood. When
that vessel came alongside, the cap
tain could not stand from weakness,
but he was as determined as ever to
stick to the vessel. Finally the Park
wood took the Holliswood in tow and
conveyed her safely to Galveston,
Tex, greatly to the amazement Of
the inhabitants, who had heard Of
the abandonment of the vessel.
