Mr.. EDITOR: If you want bird's-eye
view of human life, come to this city, and
you will be gratified. You will here see
human nature in all its phases, its dignity
as well as its degradation. The sin of in
temperance prevails here to very great ex-
tent, and its blighting influences are seen
in almost every quarter. A few choice
spirits have come up boldly to the work,
but the human license law is more than
sufficient TO defeat the inhumane exertons
of those enlisted in the good cause.

holes in its basement The fumes of alco-
ho reach even the Supreme Court room,
