and with the best of everything at Drug Store The Michigan Liquor Protective Association has been organized an this city with the following officers: 5 George Doolittle 'Vice red Myil i rw tr Secretaiy Wm A Throon Treasurer Louis Lambert i 'IjXecutive Committee Chamberlain: Her may echheuner and Marvin Preston The association has mailed a copy of 'the fol lowing circular to every liquor dealer in the State Though the attempt at the last session of the Legislature of the State of Michigan to impose a prohibitory law failed of execution the an ti liquor element was enabled to effect a seri ous increase of taxation and curtailment of the hours of business of the wine spirit and beer jtrade lushed with their success the leaders of the prohibitory movement have renewed their labors this time devoting them selves wholly to agitation among the voters of the State They are busily engaged in secur ing signatures from voters only to a petition to the Legislature praying for 'the submission to the people next year of a constitutionalamendment forever prohibiting the manufac ture and sale of intoxicating liquors in the State of Michigan The Prohibitionists dis carding their former methods have resolved upon adopting political forms of action and are perfecting plans for securing tho return at the next general election of an Executive and a Legislature pledged to the supjiort of their iqeasqres The agitation has assumed more widespread features than at any previous period there is not a village town or city in the State where the emissaries of prohibition are not earnestly at work and there seems to bo an ample supply or money at tue back or those who are conducting the campaign There never was a period when the trade was so seriously menaced as at the present By every possible influence by money by social pressure by female persuasion and by tho power of the pulpit the" aims of fanaticism are being furthered The ends of th a Prohi bitionists and their allies are wholly concen trated upon securing the return of a Legisla ture pledged to the utter rain of the wine beer aud spirit trade by an appeal to the peo ple intended to be made effectual at an election on a constitutional amendment' as it is well known that such elections never call out any thing like a full proportion of the actual vote Even now tho papers uro assert ing that the men in politics in the State who do not favor prohibition are evincing a disposi tion to sill further increase the taxation of the trade to still further restrict the hours of business by forcing saloons to close at7p on Saturdays and the eves of elections and holidays to increase the amount of liquor bonds to limit the volume of business by redu cing the number of saloons to population in fixed proportion and in various other methods to brand an honorable and legitimate business as criminal and burden it with galling en croachments and annoyances Up to the present time wine beer and spjrit dealers of Michigan who number up4 ward of 5000 and have some $7000000 of been unable for want of to present any united opposi tion to the suocessf pl wholesale invasfon 'of theil" trade aud propertyrights and the princi plestof personal liberty "The time has come however when castihg oflf their accustomed apathy they must combine for the protection of their interests by the exertion Of their united influence for' if they do not they must prepare to see their interests more danger 4 ously assailed than ever if not wholly swept away With the view of uniting: all persons inter ested in the wine beer and spirit trade manu facturing wholesale' and retail upon a plat form of mutual protection and resistance to organized aggression the Michigan Liquor Protective Association has been formed It now has a Very large membership in various parts of the State and is increasing by several hundreds a week "The object ot the association is wholly pro tective without any political bearing save in the determination to make the constitutional and collective rights of the organization re spected by all political parties: It is proposed by an association strong in number and char acter to present a firm front in the impending campaign alike to rohibitionism and all who are pledged to the aims of fanaticism It is the aim of the association to bring about as soon as possible a combination of 5000 dealers in the State by which their collective influence maybe so emphatically asserted as to compel from both political parties a repudia tion of sympathy witn prohibition and with all further attempts at legislation directed against the interests of the trade' It is further the design of the association to endeavor to obtain by' legitimate and constitutional means a modifleatien of the' present liquor police law a reduction'of the liquor taxatioiuto a reason able figure and generally an amelioration of the condition of the trade We believe it possible with the immense power which the trade if united can wield by concentrating attention upon the State elec tions to secure the return of a friendly Exec "iitive and Legislature and the complete organ ization is necessary all over the State Branches of the association should be estab lished in every county city town and village and place themselves at once in communica tion with a State Central Executive Commit tee composed of men in trade who will devote time and attention to the 'general interest and effectually carry out the will of the organiza tion Every wholesaler a very retailer every distiller and rectifier every brewer and malt ster is interested in this protective alliance whtch is designed to fight the common enemy and effectually counteract the influence alike of prohibition and political demagogues who truckle to the fanatical element by voting for new restrictions upon the liauor trade Blanch associations may be formed in "every citjt town and village by gentlemen desiring to organize writing to the Chairman of the Statq Central Committee Ym are cordially invited to become a mem ber of the association and co operato with its members in all 'its objects An accredited

Cronin Sullivan Baines and Pehlon THE TRIOKY TEAVELER Eugene Davis Trying to lay the Iman ity Dodge 'z tThe Chicago Times considerable space to 1 the prison vagaries of Eugene Davis the notorious bigamist It says: Regarding Miss Cleveland ho said he was satisfied tliat she loved him for he had re ceived a letter from her assuring him of the fact and no matter what the newspapers or other persons might say about her feelings towards him he was willing to wait until he was vindicated and restored to her He loved her better than his life for the reason that she so closely resembled the woman who aloue had a place in his heart and who died years ago of quick consumption When asked whether he had told Miss Cleveland of his former attach ments before their marriage he said he hail not and that was tho only act ot his life that he could reproach himself tor 'He told her of hisndivorce from bis first wife but never said a word to her about the or the fail ure to do so he could never forgive himself Whv he was pot permitted to see his wile he could not tell but ho supposed that her parents objected This was natural anl he did not complain 5 1 1 Judging from talk on yesterday it is not at aU uiUikelyJiMit to ptayxhb'pSJDjAUa' rattlebrain' not to say in sane person His talk was more suggestive of insanity than a clear mind as on several occa sions he seemed to lose the course of convei'sa tion But with this there was an air of affec tation which the clever gentleman will have to put aside before he succeeds in convincing any ono' that he went about the country marrying everybody who would "nave him simply be cause lus mind was not strong enough to resist the temptation In the course of his talk ho alluded to this point saying that' his tune was that he was" unable to say froin which it may be inferred thac the propo sitions of marriage were always made to him The fact is confinement is alrsadv telling upon "him 1 as rihe1 is evidently left too much alone with his own thoughts for the good of his health His great anxiety seems to be to make a concise statement of his con duct from 1860 to the present time in an open court as by it he thinks he can turn tho tide in his favor The police gained but little naw information yesterday about Davis and his record The quiet of tho day was disturbed only by the re ceipt of two letters which are of interest in the way of adding to the notoriety At this rate it is feared that Davis will be wanted in every State in the Union to answer for un freedom with' women One of the letters is as follows: March 12 1880 Chief of Police Dear Clarenca Davis resided in this vil lage about two years ago His wife had no chil dren while here She bad their marriage certifi cate framed and hung up in their parlor Some time in August 1879 Davis had selected his victim' and commenced laying his plans but for the innocent young girl two of his letters mis carried and their contents were brought to the knowledge of her mother who commenced mak ing things uncomfortably warm for Davis Ho then left and his wife followed him in a few days leaving a good many small debts unpaid If you desire any further information
