Tapley. e Narragansett town council has| «ded in controlling the liquor : of that town during the winter in & way satisfying to the ma- of the residents. As a result ¢ are less dispensers of intoxicat- ; drinks in the town during the win- months than ever before. Under | tier1a¥ of one license for every 500 in- habitants, Narragansett was entitled to two licensed saloons, but the council issued licenses of the club variety to all applicants, and in consequence in the past ther® have been nearly as many places where liquor was sold in winter as in the summer, excepting the | real hotels and Casino. i ‘With the amended law passed at the last session of the general assembly, | authorizing the town to issue addition- al_second class licenses from June to ‘ December, ten licenses were granted to places that were formerly operated as clube, and when they expired in De- cember renewals were denied. The council issued orders that there must be a cutting down of these second class Hoenses to protect the two places that held full year licenses. The result has . beenm that places that have never before closed during the winter are now clos- ed tight, and the proprietors are on vacation outside the borders of the town. West Greenwich and New Shoreham are the only two towns in Rhode Island that have failed to pay the state tax that was due Dec. 15, but it is expect- ed that the tax money from the Isle in the Oceam will be received by the state treasurer during the present week., But it will probably be some time before West Greenwich pays its @ebt to the state, for a new assessment may be ordered. At present the col- Jeotor of taxes cannot collect a cent in taxes, as the taxpayers refuse to part with thelr coin until the legality of the present assessment is determined. Deciston is pending in the supreme court of the state in the suit of West Greenwich against the Warwick and Coventry Water company, the com- pany claiming that the tax was not properly levied, and therefore refuses to pay the tax. The other taxpayers take the ground that if the tax against the same is An unusual and interesting esrvice, rovived by Rt Rev. James DeWolf ‘was held in St. Paul's Episcopal | in.

T A T Sy, IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN l Non-Resistance the Consciousness of Power. This silly yorld, and the silliest of the silly sometimes write learned ar- ticles in reviews, seems never to have caught the idea that was in Jesus’ mind when he commanded to turn the other cheek, and to pursue as a rule the policy of non-resistance and of abstinence from revenge. I have just read & contribution in the North American Review, in which some phil- osopher argues that this policy means weakness|. A whole coterie of think- | ers apparently imagine this central principle of Jesus to be merely a slave- spirit. The trouble is their short reac They cannot grasp so high nobilit For as a matter of fact Jesus’ of man refuses to revenge while, Knowing no one 1 degrade him except himself, he is in- | different to what others do to him.
