NEED OF PROHIBITION

THE N. Y. Independent has never espoused the cause of prohibition, taking rather the stand of a looker-on only desirous to see "fair play." For this reason the following item, from its number of Oct. 20, has all the more force:—
"Liquor has now an unrestricted sale in Boston, notwithstanding the promise of the opponents of a prohibitory law that they could be depended upon to enforce a license law. The law is violated day and night, and the protected interests take no pains to restrain violations of law. It is about time for more prohibition."
