These saloons pay B380,0p0 into the city treasury annually, and the publlo pays into the saloons something like $4,000 000. Besides this amount the public pays the eost of the crime and the poverty which result from the busi ness conducted by the saloons. All other big cities in the country, almost all of the smaller cities and nearly all of the villages make simi lar bargains with the liquor traffic, varying as to the size of the munici pality and the license fee charged, but maintaining approximately the same proportion of receipts and expendi tures—that is to say, paying out some thing more than $1,000 for liquor for every $100 taken in for license. It is impossible, of course, to deter mine the amount expended for liquor in any municipality with any degree of accuracy. The figures for St. Paul are given by a committee which claims to have made an investigation of the matter, and may be taken as sufficient ly within bounds to give something of an Idea of the relation between Income and outgo. Luverne received for liquor licenses last year something over $7,000 and it is probably safe to say that for this amount the saloons took out of the community more than $70,000. A considerable part of this contri bution to the liquor traffic was made by people who could atand the expense. Some of it was paid by people who would squander their money anyway and*were therefore no poorer by rea son of their 'expenditures for liquor. But most of it was paid by people who could not afford the expense, and some of this part, quite a large proportion of it in fact, came out of personal de privationsand sacrifices—deprivations of home comforts and home necessities sacrifices of time, health and strength, of happiness, character, opportuni ties, success. Some of it was paid by merchants who furnished provisions on accounts that will always be due. The man who drinks must be a very moderate drinker if he doea not spend $200 or $300 a year for liquor, and that makes a big hole in the average income. Usually the cost of liquor for the man who patronizes saloons regularly is more than the C06t of food his family. For the young man without a family it is more than an academic and ofessional education would cost him. For the average business man it is enough to insure his ultimate failure. At best it is a bad business. N one can afford it It doesn't pay the individual citizen and it doesn't pay the municipality. What to do about it is a question easily answered for the individual but not so easily answered for the munici pality. One thing is certain however. The license system must be regarded as an expedient and not as a settle ment of the liquor question. The ex pedient will doubtless be advocated so long as the saloon buslcess la profit able to those engag-d in it, but it should be remembered that profit to the saloon is loss to the public. It re maws for the public to determine how long it will continue to take the short end of a bad bargain —Rock County Herald. Real Estate Transfers. TOWN OF LAKE LILLIAN.

A great disappointment befell Al bert Lea's trio of high school debaters and toe large crowd of their friends who were present at Minneapolis and listened to the debate, and it was equally a hard blow to all the friends of the Albert Lea high school when they received by phone the unexpected news immediately after tne decision was announced The decision of the three judges was unanimous for the Breckenndge girls and it may be in delicate to say so, but the opinion was expressed by imp«rtial hearers in Minneapolis that whoever helped the young ladies to compose their ora tions were able and skillful and laid effective plans. The decision was a surprise to the great audience that beard the debate for it eannot be de nied that the overwhelming opinion was that the Albert Lea team had put up the stronger argument and made the better showing Certainly Messrs. Swanson and Hayes and Miss Lam pert acquitted themselves with surpas sing credit and added new laurels to the honors they had achieved in the previous contest*—and Albert Lea is very proud of them They haven't the cup nor tbe badges but they have the satisfaction of knowing that their tal ented efforts and hard labors are fully appreciated and their, friends will ever accord them honor for their snlendid accomplishments.
