NEW PAPER MILL REQUIRES MUCH PROPERTY Main Building to Be Started Soon— More Land Acquired. The new paper manufacturing com- panw at Montville, which will prob- ably be known when it commences business as the Kitemaug company. has now acquired almost all the reai estate needed for its purposes. Prep- arations for business involved the pur- chase of a number of small parcels of real estate, many of these having been bought through middlemen. From various owners the company has now obtained possession of not only the land on and around the Johnson wharf, but of a large tract west of the Cen- tral Vermont railroad, including all the land bordering the property of the Keyes Process company, which was jointly held by F. W. Browning of Norwich, the John B. Lathrop estate ang others and was purchased in the early stages of the formation of the company. From Mrs. E. A.

Work on the main building will be commenced in a very short time, this structure to be entirely of brick. At present the working force on the whart and fill consists of some forty men, with eight team. WILL RETURN WEST. Mre. J. B. Davis and Daughter Have Been Living Here Two Years. Mrs, John B. Davis and her three daughters, Emily, Lucy and Goldie, are making preparations to return to the vest, after living for the past two ears in Norwich. Mr. Davis, who is a native of Preston, came east two vears ago with his family from Nortonf Kan- sas, where for the previous 37 years he had made his home. Last July Mr, Davis returned to look after property interests in Norton, and his family wiil also go back west in a week or two. Norton is a county seat, and the meeting point of three railroad lines, and during the past decade has more than doubled in population. Tts pres- ent size is about 4000. Building has been rapid and property values have risen greatly.

SMITH The Drug Man, Franklin Square, Norwich, Ct. soptiod g istence. . Pastors Put Forth Their Arguments on the Evil of Open Saloon and Declare It Should Be Voted Out of Ex- The morning sermon at the Cefitral Baptist church by the pastor, Rev. P. C. Wright, was upon no-license, speak- ing upon the topic, “The Saloon Has Forfeited Its Right to Exist” He sald in part: i 1 wish to reiterate & former state ment that this is purely,a%ocial ques- tion. It is non-partisan, non-sectar an, noa-racial, and non-personal It is not a question as to who the men are who are conducting the saloon or who are the men who are opposing it. The question before the community is, Shall the institution known as the sa~ loon in our social body be licensed? Neither temperance fanaticism nor saloon —misrepresentation will deter- mine the issue. The safoon’s right to exist will depend upon its vaiue to the community, its forfeiture upon its curse to the community. 1 submit to you some reasons why I contend that it has forefited its right to be: 1. It is a principal Dreeder of most vicious sickness, pauperism and crime. One hundred thousand of the citizens of Connecticut, according to the present rate of death from tuber- culosis, are doomed to die of that disease The International Congress on Tuberculosis in 1905 declared that the relation of alcohol to tuberculosis was so close that efforts against them should be combined. 2. The saloon is & curse to the younger generation. The representa- tives at Budapest declared that alcohol “has disastrous effects upon future generations.” Thousands of children are epilaptics aud imbeciles through having had the misfortune to be born of drunken parents. Besides this great section of ohildhood there is another which is robbed of the education oth- erwise possible by being compelled to leave &chool to work in the interests of the family. Investigation proves that Conncctizut's eighteen cit'es now contain over 2,300 such young people. 3. The saloon is an economic octo- pus. The liquor traffic is a more ter- rible octopus than any other trust known. Is it the friend of labor? Let us see. Tron and steel and their pro- ducts employ 496 men to every million dollars invested. Lumber and its man- ufactures employes 726 men to every million invested: leather industries 550 men, paper and printing 349, vehicles 858." Liquer employs 104 to every million invested. ‘ake another view. What share of the value produced by his toil does the laborer get in the liquor traffic com- pared to these other Industries? In iron and steel labor he gets 22 per cent, in lumber 27 per cent., in leather 16 per cent., in paper 21 per cent., in vehicles 34 per cent, in liquor 9 per cent. Wherein is ‘the liquor business the friend of the laborer. The saloon is surely a curse finan- cially to this town. We pay year by year all we get in licenses to take care of its product, and are out rum'’s share in the cost of the police force, thou- sands of days spent in jail by laboring men, b seven or eight hundred thousand dJollars which go over the bar and are thus diverted from legiti- mate business channels. Liquor costs Norwich and New London between a million and two milllon every year we suffer the saloon. Local Reasons for Abolishing It. 1. Tol reduce the number. If two years of no-license doesn’t justify that experiment, when we go back, law will prohibit the presence of more than one saloon for every 500 of population, or for Norwich only 52 saloons. 2. The saloon is debauching our citizens. 3. Do it to help the boys and girls. Get the saloons away grom the schools. Doeg Norwlich want saloons within 200 feet of churches and schools. Some say so. Is that the voice of the town? 4. Shall rum defy and threaten the citizens of this community and enjoy their patronage? When men want to sign a petition to vote on the license questfon, not indicating thereby even which way they choose to vote, shall they be threatened and compelled to remove their names? Shall we speak of “personal liberty?’ Shall we, living in the tome town of Governor Buck- ingham and his compatriots, suffer such wrongs and be sient? One act il determine that question. Vote No-License in No-License Pla At Trinity Methodist church Sun- day morning, Rev. Dr. M. §. Kauf- man presented “Up to Date Testimony for ~No-License from No-License States and Cities.” He read personal letters to himself direct from the present governors of North Carolina and Kansas, from the leading judge of the district court of North Da- kota, from the mavor of Cambridge and the mayor of Worcester. All of these gave strong and positive witness to the great advantage of no-license over license, especially in a business way. Much emphasis was laid upon the economic value of doing away with the open saloon. The merchant prince of North Dakota says: “When no-li- cense went into effect in 1890 the friends of the saloon said grass would grow in our streets. My experience has proven that they were mistaken. Tt has been clearly demonstrated that the saloon is a competitor of the store and a detriment to every legitimate business. The saioon impoverishes its customer, robs him of earning ability and Urings poverty to his home. As a purely business proposition, any communlity is a gainer by abolishing the liquor traffic.” This is actual ex- perience, these are facts and facfs are more powerful arguments than theories. In the evening, Dr. Kaufman spoke on: “Liquor Traffic and the Laboring Man” He 'said in part: Laboring people make up the overwhelming majority of the population in all coun- tries of the civilized world. He is i dispensable to the very existence of society. Hence whatever materially affects his elevation or degradation is of supreme importance to him and to mankind. That many wage earners and laborers, both skilled and unskill- ed, are seriously and fatally injured by the liquor traffic, no_ homest man can deny. Ex-Governor Hanly of In- diana says: “Of all men wronged by this traffic, the man who toils for his bread is most cruelly injured. And of all men he can least afford the in- jury. His health, his power to labor; his” physical and _mental _ efficiency, constitute his capital. And these are all impaired by his patronage of this traffic.” Here we have one of the heaviest indictments against the licensed sa- loon. It is the laboring man’s most deadly and destructive and ruinous foe because (1) it entices and tempts him to the habitual and excessive use of intoxicants, and intoxicants undermine health, which is so essential to suc- cess; (2) strong drink diminishes the toilers’- power of endurance: (3) it im- pairs the workman's efficiency, it makes his nerves less steady, his vi: fon less accurate and his hand less skilful; (4) it often throws him out of emplcyment or prevents him from get- ting it; (5),jt takes from many a la- boring man'‘the money which right- fully belongs to his own family; really his wages are not large enourh to support well ‘his wife and children, and the saloon keeper's family, too. Which ought to have the preference? (6)Vote out thé saloon and then many a laboring man who now wastes his earnings in streng drink will hecome worth much more to himself, family, and community. ¢7) This wiil give him and his children more respect among their assoclates and a much better chance for education and honorable success in life. I appeal to every la- borer who patronizes the bar to throw off this yoke. Assert your personal liberty. By all means, vote No. The Open Mind. At the First Baptist church, Sunday morning, Rev. W. T. Thayer said re- garding the no-license question: What is the natural result of holding the mind open to evidence, of following an enlightened reason as guide to con- duct? As an illustration, President Charles 'W. Eliot, before the No-License league of Massachusetts, on October 29. 1308, said in substance that when no-license was first proposed in Camoridge he was not in favor of it, because he was a so-called moderate’ drinker and he never felt any ill-effects from the use of beer or wine, because he did not believed the no-license policy could be enforced and because he believed in personal ilberties, These three rasons made him a license man. But from youth he was taught to believe in the open mind. Exact observation and Jjust inference are the only safe foun- dation of knowledge which should de- termine conduct. Follcwing this prin ciple he kept an open mind toward all burning questions and that 1s the rea- son why, he sa; “I have changed my mind about license and no-li- cense.” And an open mind led him to the following facts: (1) Recent re- searches in physiology and medfcine tend strongly to show even moderat drinking is inexpedient; (2) under lo cal option the law can be enforced, as illustrated by Cambridge. a_city of 100,000; (3) while believing firmly in personal Itberties still if no-license is interference with personal liberties then the great collective good justi- fies the exclusion of the saloons’ from the city streets—in other words, the closing of the open saloon. Thes three facts made President Eliot a no- license man. What an open mind did for & man of President Eliot's calibre an open mind before the saloon prob- lem will do for all, because a closed mind will lead the wise Into error, but an open mind will usher the simple into truth. An interesting study is found in the matter of high school education. Bear in mind that Massachusetts has 20 no-license cities, while Connecticut has 18 cities, of which are license. In all license citles and towns (in Mas- sachusetts) there is one high school pupil to 64 populatien; in all no-li- cense cities and towns there is one high school pupdl to 51 population. Connecticut has 8,172 high sohool pu- plls .an average of 1 to e 65 pop- ulation. On the basis of the above comparison and under a system of es- tablished no-license, there ought to be 10,537 high school pupils. In other words, the system of licenss deprives 2,385 boys and girls in Connecticut of a high school education. And Nor- ‘wich has her share. In this city there s one high school pupil to 70 of pop- ulation. On a basis of comparison with Massachusetts no-license cities, and under a system of established no- license, we would have one Ligh school pupil to 51 population. In other words at least 125 boys and girls in our city are deprived o high school educa- tion by our license system. For a number of years the proximity of a saloon to a church or school is limited to two hundred feet. But by a change of law there are now nine saloons within that limit. Now, look at the facts. The county commissioners are made sole judges as to the ruitability of granting li- censes, but these saloons are allowed to remain in deflance of the spirit of the law. Conviction of law-violation may forfeit a license, but the custom of the courts to “let off” in the first offense, and the dodge of having the bar tender fined instead of the pro- prietor removes the possibility of help here in the closing of these saloons within 200 feet of church or school. By carrying Norwich no-license for one term, then if we return to the licens column in two years none of these 9 saloons could reopem within the 200- limit of church or school. “There is no possible equity in fa- vor of such a propesition,” sald Gov- ernor Weeks, when he v d the bill drawn to protect these saloons In case a town went no-license and then r turned to license. Here, then is a stubborn fact. In this state of Connecticut there stands no power between the youth of our schools and close contamination of the saloon whose promoters exhibit this spirit of unfairness and injustice but a fearless zovernor and the voter. Voter, stand by the governor, de- fend the interests of the growing gen- eration, and by your ballot’ help to ex- pel from the close proximity of our schools and churches, for, In the words of President Eliot, “the absence of the saloon is highly advantageous to the whole population, men, women and children.” FUNERALS.
