i Mx. Eorrax.— In reading over the coi- . trams of your paper last week,;i waa r amused with the labored communication . Jrom a gentlemen signing himself "Arr tff-" Ife say* "I venture to address yoa . upon a subject which appears to me to be e one of public moment— 1. e.— that in re- . fereuce to tbe Uocnsing of aalooo* Aa" r Aod he farther *sy»: "Tlie well-being of r every city is inseparably connected with i liberal and progreisire idea* Where a . people are hide-bound ud cling lo but 1 one thought or one idea; where tbey are - extremists ud see no value but to pursuing sod following up tbe same aid beaten . track, enterprise ia wanting— is cast into die shad* oar prosperity to effect: rely , banished. No city can grow in wealth, or I brepuae great by kgisiatton in such a manner aa to drive away visitors ud business custom, ".la-tors and business men in- . variably go where hospitality and tbe ao- . cial habits are cultivated and the maaats ; both directly and Indirect ly iv-neti'.ted." i ' sir. to all thia wc agree; but wc take 1 issue with him as to method* Hereemi lo think - that tbe only way to secure tbe : ud growth of our city is to grant la sJoona. Now let u. pause a moment while wc look into this liornre : matter that the American people to day are looking lata In fact the question in- 1 long overshadow aii other issues before the public. 1 have listened to the same argmnenta before that "Argus" applies iu | tela, it to claimed, ia nccesaary to the life 1 of Cape May. " Wliai would Cape Slay , lie if il weir cot for its hotel ud bar-room licenses?" is the question aometitoc* asked ] by way of a clincher to the argument in of license. And it Is a question I I might appropriate lv reply lo as did tbe old , farmer out wc*!. The story has been told \ before but will hear repeating. It waa at an en tl -prohibition meeting and the apeak. 1 a as showing bow much wheat and corn were used iu tlie distilling of whisky, ud askrd what would become of all this grain < the Prohibition party got into power, and what 'con lit they raise to pay tliem i a well. An old fanner iu the muting, dhrthe pause that followed the question. liis feet and shouted hack— "I'll in the care oT (hipe May. their would lie money in tbe Ipocket" of the people ud more rejoicing in the unlurtuuate lip- " Argus" would have us believe that the Eat object of people coming to Cape y if to drink whiskey or beer. This is certainly a false assumption, and otjc that not substantiated by the record of the place in the past. Why. air, the only ud most successful bouses Cape Slay has bad tliuaudiich were conducted witbaRg a bar. 1 might refer you to them by name, is unnecessary. This is the plain troth nf the matter, aod thereto oo getting away from solid fact* No, friend "Argu*" it is not more license* we WUt in Cape May. What we do stud io need of ia more enterprise and thrift. We hare been in the old ! change. We want less whiskey ud more money ta circulation in the community. The people are.awakeniog to a sense of the importance of the issue I have here attempted to explain. The great tcmpcr1 once movement to marching on. There is 1 a tidal wave coming, and my advice to "Argus" is that he bad better retire to safer ud higher ground than that be now stands on. Peogrxkl Cone.
