And it is undoubtedly the case, that more is actually drunk and sold. The result at once began to exhibit itself in our, jails and houses of correction ;,and as usual, now begins to niake‘ its record directly and indirectly en the registers of our variety} state pauper establish meutsfilu natic hos: ' pitals and reformatories. If it is v desired to secure, iii-the best‘mauf ner, the repression of crime and and pauperism, the increase of ‘ production, the decrease of taxa- tion and a general prosperity of , the community, so far as this question of intemperance is con- ' cerned, it is clearly my judgment : . that .Massachusetts should return to the policy which prohibits the 1 sale of intoxicating drinks except I for machanical or‘ medical pur- poses. When most carefully en- 1 forced, such a policy amounts, in practice, only to a’ restriction on such sales, for every law on this subjecf will be more or less evaded. But to the poor, and the wives and children of the pour, it makes a wide difference whether we take our departure from the point of prohibitionor from that of license. In the latter case, as has been the past year, the current sets in favor , of more selling and more drinking and this means, tothe poor inborn. ing man or. woman, and 'to the childreh growing up mid bad influences, more poison of the blood more idleaens, more wants, more rape, more murder, more of ll Strontium-n. The following strong indiét- 'ment of the license law was made, not by a tempetafice “crank” but by a state'qfficial appciu‘ted by Governor Andrews and known as a close observe and student _of social science.
