DRINK.
CHECKING THE EVIL ELIMINATION OF PRIVATE PROFIT. NEWSPAPER COMMENT. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Sydney, April 30. The Herald, commenting on the drink bill, says that very few people who do not directly benefit from the traae can view the very large increase in the expenditure on drink without regret. The lamentable fact remains that. all the labor put into the work of reform has not apparently affected either the drinking habits of the people or the steadily increasing revenue derived from the sale of liquor, in which every person, including the most vigorous opponents of the trade, shares. The Herald advocates, as the best-rem-edy for checking the growth of drinking, the elimination of the factor of private profit.
