HJSJl We often hear the cry, "Hard times," but times are never so hard but what the saloon can make them worse. Chief Justice Clark, of the Su nrenie bench of North Carolina, gives it as his opinion that the prohibitory lew in that state has reduced gener al crime rifty pe r cent. The re t'lrns for the last two years prove his statement. Murder in Hie first degree showed a decline of thirty-two per cent, larceny forty per cent, manslaughter thirty five per cent, murder in the second degree iwenty nne per cent, minor crimes from twenty-five to fifty per cent. There has also been a falling off of fifteen per cent of violations of he anti-liquor laws. Judge Clark ttsj prepared a five years' compuri Si n which shows that some crimes lave decreased more than sixty per cent since the saloons of the state were closed. Has It Ever Occured to You That no man ever lived who could truthfully say the saloon helped him to be a better citizen? That the saloon Is the one great school for lawlessness and vice? That the saloon is where crime is planned and criminals are harbored? That the saloon is a place where no self respecting muu would want his wife or mother to find him? That the saloon is the one institu tion for which no person has a kind ord ? That the saloon lakes a man's money and gives liini worse than lothing in return? Thai the saloon unfi ts men to be good oltixens, and kind husbands and terkers? That the saloon causes more mis ,, despair and Immilii.tion than any other laMttotlosf That the saloon is the only busi bee taxed to provide against the evils arising therefrom?

('. I.. V;iii Ion We glean the following from the Nebraska News: "You have not decidetl that the fcaloon is really a had institution in the community. You are not inter ested In having It abolished. You hold aloof from the men and women M ho are working to eradicate it. You say it is a fairly respectable place and you see no reason why yen should use your Influence against VP 13 it. You think those who oppose the saloon are extremists and that it is better to let alone rather than stir up a commotion in the neighborhood. You are indifferent as to whether it tenuitng or goes, but you do not went to meddle In the affair. What thi you really think of the saloon? When the question is pressed home to you can you be indifferent? As , a good citizen can you remain inac I tive? I low do you actually consider the saloon, eevn if it be what you i term a respectable' place? Ansu r IbOM questions honestly and see if your eonscience will permit you to remain inactive: Would you want to die in the sa loon? Would you want to see your inoth l r in 1 he saloon? Would you want to meet your wife In the saloon? Would you admit the saloon-keeper into your home us your social tqual? Would yon advise your son to f spend his leisure time in the saloon?! Would you want a saloon operated ' next door to your home? Would you point, io the saloon as j one of the good InsMt in ions of your town ? Would you be kkpckl ii to see your m'nister enter the salon..? Would you make comparisons of those, who hang out ai tie saloon? Would sou place the saloon on the same equality with the grocery, he dry goods store and the meat market ? Would ou ousider il an honor to be known as saloon putrou? Would It add to your StoadlSg in your town to known as a saloon I .. inpaihi.'.'r? If you answr thes questions in the nffirmatit e. there is no good reegoa why (TOM do not oppose Ihe -.iloon.
