lncruached Upon the Highway.
Thomas E. O'Holloran, who lives on
Spring Hill, recently attempted to appro-
priate to hisZown use about eight feet of
highway by extending his fence out and
taking his rounding corner. lie set a
fence post at the extreme end of his es-
tablished claim, and began the erection
of a fence, but the residents of the neigh-
borhood made considerable complaint,
and besides the piling up of a few stones
near the post nothing more was done.
When the selectnion began repairs on theI
road, last month. Selectman Raymond
looked up the map of the road filed in
the town clerk’s office and found that
Mr. O'Holloran.was trespassing on town
property. He at once ordered the work-
men to tear up the post. clear away the
stones and turnpike the corner. They
did so, and the following day Mr. O'llolv
lorau. who was very indignant at the
change, asserted that the town had taken
his propeny. Selectman Raymond had
been exceedingly careful in looking up
the town's rights in the matter and paid
no attention to Mr. O'ilolloran‘s threats.
Mr. ()‘Holloran now wants the newspa-
pers to take up his case, and he threatens
to sue the town.

The crisp country air which fairly per-
vaded the house, emanating from the
able portrayals upon the stage, was truly
refreshing and delightful. The Elmore
children again and again received hearty
applause and were obliged to respond to
encores. when a basket of beautiful
flowers was presented to them. Their
acting was perfect. They are indeed lit-
tle folks of high ability and exceedingly
clever. They sang, danced and handled

. Editor of The Sentinel: You publish
ln last evening’s SENTINEL extracts from
the New Britain Record, Republican, and
the New Britain Herald, Democratic, in
which they fall back on license, instead
of no-lieense, as the surest and most
feasible way to lessen the evils of intem-
perance. I claim a great wrong like the
liquor traffic should never be sanctioned
by legal enactment. No law should toler-
ate crime or its pure accessory to the
same by legalizing it. Does money paid
law the coffers of the town by license
lessen or mitigate the great wrongs of it?
if a man pays $500 for the privilege of
selling liquor, the supposition is he would
sell from $2 000 to $3,000 worth a year:
here, then, is from $1,500 to 32,501) more
taken from the people than is returned
tothem by his license fee. The great
bulk of this is taken from tho stonischs
and backs of the starving and naked
poor. The assertion is perfectly ridicu-
lous that “as much or more liquor is sold
inanon‘liircnse town than in a license
one." if so, why are they clamoring for
license. Let non-license prevail in all
license towns, and pluck up courage and
enforce the law, you would soon see
with your discriminating eye, the com-
forts of life more evenly distributed
among the people lintl the border line
abolished, with peace and contentment
