J. Bryan , if Gover nor Shallenberger can prevent it. "County option means prohibition , " leclared the governor on ; ; his arrival . In Omaha this morning , "and Mr. Pryan is illogical * in his statements , hat he is a county optionist , but not a prohibitionist. "Mr. Bryan has intimated in numer- DUS conferences that he is an option- ; ' , Ut ; , but not a prohibitionist , but the very principle of county option is pro- . hibition. . ' . . "The liquor problem will be one of the main issues of the campaign , " said ( the governor , "and I do not deem S I It advisable for the democratic party - : - to adopt a county option plank. "The liquor laws , with the daylight j naloon act passed by a democratic - legislature , are being more rigidly en- forced than ever before and I believe that a rigid enforcement of liquor statutes is to be preferred to county option. ' v . . . "It is too early to draft a platform and I believe that we should wait un- til the situation develops. " Attitude of Democratic Press. ' . Columbus Telegram. ) The Telegram prefers the method of law rather than the method of the bootleg. And : when we say we prefer the method of the : law it is with the understanding that all laws k t - governing the sale of liquor shall be , enforced to the letter. We favor obedience to the law for ' two reasons : * j 1. Because it is right. a , 2. Because only by strict enforce- . .ment of the present Nebraska liquor laws can Nebraska escape prohibition. We are glad to be able now to state . that this is the view of the great majority of the country demo- 'cratic press in Nebraska and The . Telegram always , feels safe , when traveling the path which the major ity of the democratic editors arc pointing out as the right path. I Bishop Scannell's Admonition. Rt. Rev. Richard Scannell , bishop of the .Catholic diocese of Omaha , de livered a notable sermon at St. Cecelia church in Omaha Sunday , No vember 14. The bishop admonished the women to eschew politics. He . . criticised the activities of the woman temperance crusaders. On this point he said : - - "Instead of these women striving for' - total abstinence they should be working in the cause ' of temperance , ' said Bishop Scannell. "Men have a o practical - judgment in this matter and do not look for the ideally perfect Therefore , I see no advantage to be derived from the women being ad. mitted into the political arena. ' Figures That Burn. ( Worcester Post. ) i The prohibitory brethren shoufd not be discouraged because the num ber of arrests for drunkenness to tailed only 2,340 for the year ending with the first of last month. Lewis- " , ton and its neighboring Auburn in Maine with about - a third of Wor cester's population had 1,600 of them . last year according to the Lewiston . : Journal. This is fully twice our rate in proportion to population. Bui these cities have had nearly sixty years' training in "prohibition" and ! , our rate of progress to the bad is i such that we can overtake them ii . the farce continues for another year . g-e The Journal says the great part 01 I 'a . . the men arrested there were dipso : maniacs appearing over and ovei again. * This is also the usual resuli of "prohibition" and the stuff that I flow : , s under it and the way it Is swilled down in bulk purchases and . ; in secret and irresponsible dives. . . . - Effects of No-License Booze. . : ( Worcester Post. ) ' ' "It is easy enough for me to see the effects of no-license , " said a drug. gist to Saunterer this morning. "Ev ery morning there is a line of men - at my soda fountain waiting for their , . bromo , a drink that is' supposed tc take down the head of the morning , . : after and . , they come in here in at , awful condition. . Their hands some times shake so that they can't lift the bromo to their mouth without using . both hands. This no-license booze is ' certainly the stuff that kills. And the most pitiful thing about it is the . number of young fellows that have gone to the bad this year. I don't believe there : were ever so many be , fore1. , , 'fhey'corne in here every morn ing with their faces pale and theii . hands shaking , after some drug thai . / will straightened them out. It cer : : : . . . tainly Is a shame. " With that lit . . , a ' turned to the soda . fountain. . . to mb a bromo for a man waiting there. . .

Allensworth , a lawyer of I , in- oln , said : "While attending the United States circuit court for the district of Kan- as at ieavenworth for three or four - aays this week I learned considerable regarding the enforcement or rather aon-enforcement ! of the prohibitory -'iquor law of that state. Leavenworth 's ' now in the second year of her ex- perience under the commission form of government ; .antthe city appears to be pfos erou . , and in the matter Df public improvements is in appar- ently a better condition than at any time during . the last twenty-five years , for which period I have been ac- quainted with its history. In the matter of the enforcement of the law against the sale of intoxicating liquors , the condition is deplorable and seems the more so possibly be cause of the impression that the peo- ple elsewhere generally have that the law is being strictly enforced in that state. "Within two blocks of the business penter of the city -I saw four 'joints , ' as such places are called in that state where ' intoxicating liquors were being sold without any attempt whatever at concealment except that the room in which such sales were being made was in the , rear of another room which s fronted on the street and which ap parently was a cigar store. "Tuesday of the present week war : the soldiers' pay day and the city ri the evening and night of that day , in the vicinity of the 'joints' referred to , \Y&s the scene of more drinking and drunkenness than Leavenworth could have , rivalled in her palmiest of ante bellum days. Between the hours of _ 5 o'clock on Tuesday evening and 3 olclock on Wednesday morning the 'joints' in question were' filled with of all' ; and men grades'and descriptions and a constant stream of them was flowing in and out of these places in a fashion that resembled a bargain sale. On Tuesday -night before the hour of 10 o'clock I saw not less than twenty drunken men upon the street some of them so drunk that they could not avoid colliding with people whom they met. "During" the forepart of the 'night ' the police of the city attempted to arrest a drunken soldier because of some altercation between him and a private citizen. About one hundred soldiers from the regular army at tempted to prevent it and did prevent the arrest until a special call was sent to the headquarters of the army at Fort Leavenowrth and a detach ment of armed soldiers came to the city and put down the riot. "I was informed by one who knew whereof he spake that no less than two hundred 'joints' were being op erated in the city of Leavenworth and there , is absolutely attempt , whatever to prevent the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors. To say that the 'lid is on tight' in Leavenworth is an untruth. "I am a prohibition republican and believe that Kansas has ideal law upon the subject of into ating liquors , but I do not approve of mis representing the facts relative to -ill enforcement simply to relieve public officers who fail to do their duty fron : the censure which they deserve. ' The North Dakota Farce. Hon. D. R. Streeter , editor of the Emmons County , North Dakota , Rec ord , published at Linton , writes : "The manifold evils of the prohibi tion law in this state are on the in- crease rather than the decrease. Blind pigs exist in most parts of the state and no sooner is one of these squelched than another reckless per l son steps in to take its place. Tht drug stores are doing a flourishing business and there are probably a third more' in the state than there I is a legitimate demand for. " - North Dakota Blind Pigs. The Grand Forks correspondent of the Fargo Forum informs us , says the Bismarck Palladium , that there are at the present _ 1,791 blind pigs in North Dakota - assuming doubtless that the possession of a government tax receipt for the retai : I sale of intoxicating liquor is prima facie evidence that such liquor is be ing sold , is correct. Manufacturers carry ou a cash business with their North Dakota customers and there ii no complaint heard from these out " side houses that there is any falling off in their trade. On the contrary. North Dakota : accounts are the ver } best that many a Minnesota and Illin ois wholesale house has on his books And so the farce goes merrily on and is made the medium for personal and political exploitation by cowardb politicians , who are often themselves hopeless victims of the drink habit and who care nothing about the morai . aspect of the question , so that ' ? they can continue themselves in the lime light of personal notoriety.

Mr. ' 'Holman Day Versuo ; Cerr , _ ain Fanatics. " The article is im- portant because it quotes an inter- view with Mr. Day , who , is a promi- aent editor of Maine , in which he gives the particulars of an interview had with Mr. Roosevelt , the latter hav- ing called Mr. Day to Washington for a conference. This interview shows clearly : the attitude of Theodore Roosevelt toward statutory prohibi- tion as illustrated by the experience of , Maine. , The article is well worth . reading and is as follows : "The grand jury of Cook county , Illinois , in session at Chicago , has found an indictment for criminal libel against William P. F. Ferguson , edi- tor and publisher of the National Pro hibitionist , published in Chicago. The complainant is Holman Day of Maine , whose articles on prohibition , recently published in Harper's , Weekly , elicited the libel for which Ferguson has been indicted. The Harper articles at- tracted much attention throughout the country and were widely copied and c mmented on. The facts pre- sented by Mr. Day have not been im- peached. Ferguson , in an editorial utterance , stated that the conditions as pictured in the articles existed in Maine , since Mr. Day was in a posi- tion to know whereof he spoke ; and then the editor of the National Pro. hibitionist proceeded to make a wan ton attack upon the moral character of Mr. Day , imputing to him offenses so ridiculously and shamefully false' that the state of Maine of which Mr. Day has been a widely known and honors : : ; ble resident all his life , is in- dignant on his behalf. Among the friends of Mr. Day who wrote from all parts of the country to urge him to take steps to punish such reckless vilifiers was Colonel Henry Watter- son of Kentucky , whose name ap- peared in the libelous editorial as one who felt that Mr. Day needed the endorsement that Colonel Watter- son had given him in the Courier. . , Journal. At the suggestion of Colonel Watterson Mr. Day engaged H. , H. Huffaker , Esq. , of Louisville , an able attorney and - a personal friend of Colonel Watterson's , and with him proceeded to Chicago armed with complete refutation of the charges contained in the organ of the prohi bitionists. "The indictment followed promptly and the case has been marked for trial in the early fall of 1909. 'In taking this step , ' says Mr. Day , 'I I am not actuated by any mere spirit , ' of revenge. I am not conducting a campaign against prohibition , as a , cause , nor do I hold any brief in de- fense of the whiskey interests. I was asked by reputable publishers , anx- . ' ious to put facts before their readers , : f to describe conditions in Maine after i nearly sixty years' experience in at I tempting to enforce the prohibitory law. On the appearance of my first article President Roosevelt summoned me to Washington and , in interviews , continuing parts of two days , com- mended my manner of presenting real evidence ! . before a grand jury com- posed of the thinking people of the United States. He urged me to con- tinue the presentation of the case , in view of the great interest of all , the i states in the question , and said that he had been recommending my ar-s tides as the best exposition of the evils of politically nursed prohibition. When I expressed my unwillingness to subject myself to any more of the I abuse that the radicals and fanatics had begun to pour upon me , he urged I me still more strongly to go straight . on and not mind them. In their fail- ' " ure to find arguments to meet my pitiless facts the bigots who are mak- , ing a profession out of prohibition have been Clinging their mud at me. I have picked out the most heinous offender , a man whose attack is the I climax of slanderous invention , and propose to find if there is law enough I in the land to protect a writer who asks only the prrv liege of free dis I I . cussion of an opeu question. " 'I have more to say upon the sub- ject in a novel , that is to be issued later by Harper & Brothers , and by clearing the atmosphere with this suit for criminal libel I Would like to as sure myself that enterprising fanatics will not begin accusing me of murder or treason when my book appears. Having in my discussions carefully refrained from. all personalities , though sorely tempted by striking ex- amples of prohibition , malfeasance , I am invoking the criminal law to as sure to me like respect - a respect that a more just and courteous and less desperate antagonist would grant ' I without being choked into such a con . ' " . ' dition of grace. : - , , - Crime Epidemic , In ' Alabama. . ( Portland" Argus. ) The report o | the > attorney-general i I of Alabama furnishes authoritative evidence of the. sort of progress this' southern state is 'making under its prohibition regime. It : is not ' of . the sort .to encourage belief that the' state's new departure will usher in " the millenium. Contrarywise. There is a marked increase in criminal of- fenses for the two years covered by the report over the previous , or any other like period of time , for which the attorney-general Is unable to offer a satisfactory explanation. A marked increase in criminal offenses - this is the cold fa6t in Alabama's short prohibition experience - but waves of hysterical Setitinrent are not stopped' cold facts , for a time , at least. ' .

CONDITION N IN I I STATE UF f MAINE The prohibitionists argue upon the- ory ; the license advocates argue upon I lessons of the practical effect of pro- hibition. Anti-prohibitionists contend that conditions in Nebraska under the . license system are far and away bet- ter than. conditions in Maine under' " the prohibition system. The only way that such argument can be proved is to present facts about conditions . in I ! prohibition states. ! Many Maine : newspapers : are now I condemning prohibition in pursuance , of a campaign for the resubmission of . ! a constitutional amendment for the : . repeal of prohibition in that state. These newspapers do not hesitate to , . condemn prohibition in the strongest terms. Their recent utterances would more than fill a newspaper page. In this connection is given only a brief' editorial paragraph from The Port land Daily Argus of October 29 , 1909. The Argus' comment was predicated upon like comment in the Lawrence Telegram and in the Haverhill Rec- ord.The Portland Argus is the chief daily newspaper of the state' of Maine. The quotation is as follows : ' \ , "Maine police officials are beginning to send liquor dealers to jail for ille- gal selling. If they are not careful they will spoil the business , down there.-Lawrence Telegram. , "No danger. Maine people will ! have their rum , laws or no laws. " - Haverhill Record. ' "Maine people will have their rum , . laws or no laws. Well \ , that comes pretty near being the basic facts of I the Maine situation. It is a fact I demonstrated by fifty years of farci- cal prohibition failure in the home state of prohibition. Out of all the humbug and pretense and hypocrisy of Maine prohibition the truth sticks out that the people of Maine are very like people elsewhere ; that about the same percentage of them-and it is a yery large percentage - use ' liquor in its various forms or abuse it , have done so all through the prohibition' regime and will do so as long as it lasts. The demand for liquor is 'so large and so insistent that , apart from the legitimate sources of supply it can and does maintain a great illicit trade , a trade { hat has never been stopped for a single day throughout the half century of Maine prohibition , notwithstanding all the pains and pen alties piled up in the statute book. Maine is1 ! : in favor of prohibiticm in party platforms and stump spe ches. but 'agin its enforcement , ' or in fa vor of enforcement only against the other fellow. " ' - - , - , " . .
