AntiSaloon League Meets
The Anti Saloon League meeting-
Tuesday night was well attendedthe
church being comfortably filled de
spite the fact of another entertain
ment being in progress the same
I night
Miss Lois Hills was the first speak
er and dealt with the history of in
temperance and offered good sugges
tions for bringing the temperance
forces together During the course
of her remarks she said that it was
the saloon not the saloonkeeper that
should be attacked by law and said
the original packrge law was to
prohibition what the fugitive slave
law was to abolition In other words
the purpose of local option was de
feated by the original package
She was followed by Gertrude Moon
with a recitation excellently deliv
ered
Pro Watson spoke on Agitation
and Education contending that
proper education of the boy would
make a sober and industrious man
He said the saloon was not ihe pri
mary source of the evil of intemper
ance and that no person- wilfully be
came a drunkard Every drunkard is
a mistake either of education ex
ample or environment Speaking of
the food properties of alcohol he said
the poisons so far exceeded the food
that it should not be used
In an able paper C H Cornell con
tended that in the social feature lay
the greatest power of the saloon It
is the only place wheie men of all
classes may congregate and talk with
freedom where they meet everybody
on a level and where they may al
ways be sure of a welcome His rem
edy is the establishment of a temper
ance saloon with coffee lunch and
light drinks billiards etc in fact all
the features of a liquor saloon with
gambJing and liquor left out the
place to be run not for profit alone
but for the convenience of the public
Judge Walcott closed the meeting
with an eloquent addresson Whence
Comes the Right to Destroy the Sa
loon and asserted that it was one of
the oldest rights of man sanctioned
by the law of God six thousand years
ago which says Touch not taste
not handle not the unclean thing
He said the people had the right to
destroy the business as a matter of
protection to their families The
law of the state made it a crime to
poison a dog but not a boy
A New Enterprise Talked About
D P Ashburn a representative of
the Fremont Creamery Co was in
town this week and addressed a num
ber of leading business men and far
mers on the subject of establishing a
skimming station here His propo
sition is this
A company is to be formed witft a
capital of 2000divided into 40 shares
of 50 each and this money is to be
used for erecting the necessary build
ing installing machinery etc after
which his company proposes to lease
the outfit for a period of ten years
and agreeing to run the separator six
days a week in summer and three
days a week in winter paying for but
ter fat extracted from the milk the
same price the company pays at its
headquarters in Fremont The com
pany is to no expense after the plant
is erected the Fremont people stand
ing all expenses but neither will the
local concern receive any rent for
the plant unless the average amount
of milk received reaches 3000 pounds
per day It is estimated that 150 cans
will supply this quantity When de
livery reaches 3000 ponnds per day
the Fremont company is to pay 6 per
cent on the capital stock as rental
and this rental raises until it reaches
2 per cent when 10000 pounds is de
livered per day All stockholders are
to get their milk skimmed free and
others must pay two cents per hun
dred which revenue goes to the local
company No contracts for milk are
to be made the company taking as
much or as little as is offered
We have not yet learned what suc
cess Mr Ashburn has had in securing
stock subscriptions as he went to
Gordon where he is building a plant
and will not return until tonight His
plan seems to be fair and honest and
we believe it can be made a success
New Weather Man
E J Davenport local agent of the
IT S weather bureau has received
notice that Observer Beahan will re

cause the bureau has been discontin
