COMPENSATION TO PUBLICANS. TO THE EDITOR.
Sir — A Believer in +!ie Golden Rule is also a believer in com pensatinsj the publican for tho loss of his license. Possibly the temporanco party will a^ree with him on one condition, and that is that tho typical caso lio produces bo compensated by tho man who took hia .£soo— the unearned increment created by tbo license. That will bo fair play, and no one will object to that mode of compensation, but to ask tho general public to compensate is too absurd to think of seriously for a moment. If com Eonnation is to bo paid from the sonrco I avo suggested, we shall not bear much moro about it. I am, &c, Fair Play.
