The wording of the subject was sug- gested by the words of Lincoln on the afternoon before his assassination, to Merwin. M he sald, “by of the e we have cleaned up a colossal job. Slavery is abolished. After recopstruction, the next great uestion is the dvertfirow and destruc- on of the liquor traffic. And you know, Merwin, that my head and my heart and my-hand and my purse wi g0 into that work. In 1843 more than 5 years ago, under the influence of God's spirit, 1 predicted that the time would come when there would be neither a slave or a drunkard in the land. I bave lived to see one predic- tion "fulf) I hope to see the other realized.” The Hobson resolution for national prohibition, which came up for vote in the house of representatives last De- cember, and in spite of the strongly organized opposition, and in spite of the pairing off, two ¢o one, gained a majority of eight votes, wiil be rein- troduced soon after the convening of ‘congress on the 6th of next month, said Rev. Mr. Lanpheay, and it will be kept before every session of congress a | until it gets Yhe necessary two-thirds 'vote in both branches of congress. Af- ter that, the question of the amend- ment will be given over to the states for ratification, and the necessary three-fourths of the states seem sure to be gotten in time for a saloonless nation by 1920. When this amendment comes to the states and to Connecticut there will be ford of representatives and senators favorable to the ratification of the amendment. Advantage: med. The advantages of -this amendment method of abolishing the liquor traffic are, first, in the fact that the move- ment is non-partisan and is drawing to its support large numbers of all parties; and, second, and supreme, ad- vantage of this method is in its thor- oughness. Great progress has already been made by states and localities. More than 80 per cent. of our national territory is already dry by vote of the people, and considerably more than half the population live in‘dry terri- tory. One vear ago there were nine dry states. Now there are 19, with three other states to vote on the sub- Ject of statewide prohibition during the year. Econemic and Soci Thus we see that we are in the midst of a phenomenal movement for a dry country, and the question arises as to the motive back of that movement. That motive in the past was largely spiritual and moral and personal. At the present it is more largely economic ana social. e a fight royal for the sending to Hart- | Prohi« 1 pits by Rev. Walter E. Lanphear—He Gives Figures of |27 § Figures for Norwich. ' As to the ecomomic eide, the facts concerning the _liquor trafic in, the fown of Norwich furnish an instance. The following facts and figures based on reports by county, local state authorities: The number of Hquor licenses in the town of Norwich, wholesale 2, retail 73, beer 1, druggists 17. With the in- creased license fee the town would get next year from all licenses about §: 000. ‘This amount, divided among_the people (29,219), would give each about 1t that same amount of mon be raised by taxation, it woul make a difference in the tax rate of the town of less than 1 2-10 mills, Coming now to the cost of drink in the town, the liguor dealers’ associa- tion of ihe state figures (very con- servatively) that the average saloon takes in about $§,700 a year. Multiply- ing this by (only) the 73 retail licenses, the cost of drink in the town of Nor- wich in one year s about ' $489,000. Added to this direct cost is the in- direct. The cost of the poor to the town last year was $30,350, ang it is safe to say that one-third of 'this, $10.116, was due to drink, directly or indirectly. About 70 per cent. of ar- rests by the police department were for drunkenness or for breach of the peace, which is usually due.to drink. And 70 per cent, of the cost of the police department is about $19,500. It is conservative to eay that the wealth production of our state is decreased by 20 per cent. as the result of ‘drink. Net Cost at $2,359,000. - The wealth production of, Norwiéh in 1909 was $9,389,000. Twenty per cent. of this would be . $1,877,000. Adding these various items of expense, and subtracting from them the money re- ceiveq from license fees, we get the total net cost of drink to the town of Norwich in one year as $2,359,000, or & little more " that $82 for every man. woman and child in the town. These figures are well within the lines of conservatism, and while they do not show Norwich's share in that part of license fees going to county and state, neither do they show the town's share in expenses to county and state caused by drink. To meet these facts and figures the’ liquor trafic urges many specious ar- guments, but here applies the saying of Lincoln:’ “You can fool some of the people all gf ithe time and all of the people somé of the time, but you can- not fool all the people all of the time.” We are going to_drive the liquor traffic from the other 20 per cent. of our country, concluded the speaker. In order to do so.men of all parties must rally for the nomination and election of men favorable to the anti-saloon side. We st let our congressmen and senators know that we want them to vote and to work for the Hobson resolution. To these ends the Anti- Saloon League of America, which i represented in this state by the Con. necticut Temperance union, is organ- i1zed in every state’ with hundreds of men and large printing presses at work on the job, and we expect a saloonless nation by 1920, LETTER CARRIERS IN N THEIR ANNUAL BANQUET Covers For ‘35 Laid At the Waure- and Speeches.

Parker, who until two years ago had spent their entire married life on a farm they owned in Montville, were most agree- ably reminded on Saturday at their home at East Great Plain, of their wedding day just fifty years ago by the call of a party of about 30 friends, whose plan to come to celebrate the anniversary had been so quictly kept that their visit was a complete sur- prise. Several who came from Wil- limantic arrived about 4 or 5 o'cloek and the others came later in the aft- ernoon and in the evening so that a very enjoyable time resulted. There were gifts of yellow and white chrysanthemums, one gift of a $5 gold piece and scores of good wishes, but the feature of the gathering was the anniversary poem written by Mrs. Isabelle Chumplin of Boston, who was present also and read the appropriate verses. Igsides their two sons, Parker _of Phillips avenue, who ar- ransed the surprise, and Julian B, Parker of 10 Brown street, those at- tending included fhe two grandsons, Carl Stephen, the son of James, und Ralph Congdon, the son of Julian, as well as local friends, and about I1 from Willimantic and 6 from Montville.

EXTRA WORK FOR WATER DEPARTMENT Auto Breaks OFf Hydrant — Water Street Main Springs Aleak. The skidding automobile of Frank A. Comstock of New London, registry number 7894, broke off the hydrant in front of the Hathaway market on Sat. urday afternoon about 3.30 o'clock. West Main street was wet and slippery at the time. A big volume of water was Teleased and went spouting up like a fountain until the water department had shut the water off. Policeman Frank S. Henderson held up the machine until he had reported the matter to police headquarters, and the water department was notified. They got a new hydrant in at 2 o'clock Sunday morning. A little before noon on Sunday the water department had another call for overtime work when a big leak was reported in the Water street G-inch main in front of the Auditorium the- ater. Policeman Henderson also sent in this report. The water was shut off at the Murket street corner, while the depagtment's employes dug up the street to look for the leak. It was 2 puzzling one to locate as the water oozed up in several different spots and there was much digging to be done. The leak was finally repaired about 7.30 so that the water could be turned on again. MAJOR LEARNED'S COMPOSITION s Offertory Anthem at Park Church Sunday Morning.

The police commissioners took up his case after learning that he had gone away and they ordered him back to duty. In response to that he came. The police commissioners decided that the circumstances called for “absent without leave” to be entered on his record. He formerly had the night beat on Laurel Hill, but when he reported back for duty on Saturday to Chief Linton he was given the West Side night beat that Polizeman Roger Cowles had. Policeman Cowles was put on the Thamesville night beat. The Laurel Hill beat is being covered by super- numeraries at present. Civil Engineer Shedd Dies. J.

Fourteen-yearcld Hyman Bass, who runs a Sunday newspaper route in Thamesville, and lives at 293 West Thames street, came to the Temple Spring of George A. Bullard in the Trading Cove district, about 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, where he told that he had been tied to a tree in the woods in Lefingwell by Frederick Symington and Robert Stevenson, who run a store at Thamesville and also sell Sunday newspapers, so that they are business rivals of Bass. He declared that he had been taken in an automobile by the two younsg men Hyman had been tied up. Later investigation of the case, it is understood, deveioped the information that he bad not been bound to a tree, but that his hands been tied together with the wire en he was left out in the country. By the use of a stone he was able to get the wire off his hands after a long struggle. action to follow what he say: customers of his business rivals. Service Held at the Jail.
