HIGH LICENSE DEFEAT.
Action of Legislature ngretied by
Thousands of Dead Citizens.
“The defeat of all legislation looking
to increased license fees for saloons
and also of the adoption of the prin-
ciple of restriction in this state, will
he sincerely regretted by thousands of
the best citizens of the state." says
the Hartford Post. "We regard it as a
serious mistake, one of the most ser-
ious that the Legislature has made or
is likely to make. This is so not only
because the saloon ovll, so called. is
one whose proportions are increasing
in Connecticut. but because of the mo-
tives that prompted the legislators
in refusing to make any change in the
existing laws.
“That there is (1 strong and healthy
public sentiment in favor of raising
the license fees and limiting the ham
ber of saloons to be granted in license
towns it Is not necessary to prove.
'l‘liat sentiment \vas voiced at the
hearings below the committee on tern-
perance and in the press of the state.
It was also voiced on the floor of the
House by several of the strongest men
in that body. and was also apparent,
though not expressed in argument,
the Senate, where a considerable vot
was mustered in favor of one of the
bills providing for an increase in the
license fees. That sentiment is based
upon the belief that the best way to
regulate the liquor business is to put
it as far as possible in the hands of
responsible men who may be rolled up-
on to conduct It in a lawful manner,
and the only way to secure that is to,
raise the license fees and limit the
number of saloons. The belief in that
idea is strengthened by the experience
of all states that have tried it.
"But the Legislature turned a-deof
our to the appeals of those who voiced
that sentiment. Why? It is no secret
that the reason was political expedl'
easy. it was thought that the Dermal:
vote must not be offended. It who do

clared that the liquor interests must
be placated it was said that it will
hurt the party to keep tinkering with
the liquor laws. These reasons were
not stated In open debate, but they
were given in private conversation and
it was announced by some of those
who are mainly responsible for legisl’a
tion that the party cannot afford to en-
aIctnI any high license leave at this ses-
