Garnett, Kansas.
Where Prohibition Prohibits.

Prohibition prohibits at Garnett
and In Anderson county. The evil
dence that the saloon cannot exist
in Garnett was apparent in the
neatness and beauty that every
where gladdens the eye in that
beautiful city.
The neat and elegant residences,
painted and whitewashed fences,
clean lawns, broad clean streets, all
convinced US that the people with
out respect to parties are for the en-
torcement of the law.
The churches, temperance socie-
ties, lawyers, doctors, mechanics
and porters are an unit and stand
by the prohibitory law. The coun-
ty attorney is a Democrat, and such
men as w. A. Johnson, Rev. Cole
man, Stewart and the other minis
ters, Page, Bell, E. M. Voorhees, our
old Iowa friend, and Col. Hous-
ton, and the best men and women
of Garnett stand shoulder to shout
der in entoscing the law, and
Glickery is thing of the past in
Garrett.
There is not a more pleasant
place to live in Kansas than Gar
nett. The Journal stands by the
law, and the Plain Dealer it is hop
ed will come up to the mark and
voice the Christian sentiment and
public sentiment of Anderson coun-
ty against the dram shop, and for
law and order.
A grand meeting was held in the
United Presbyterian Church and
$500 was subscribed to the State
Temperance Union.
We cannot as we wish we could,
mention all the true men and wo-
men of that progressive city, who
are entering heart and hand into
the contest for the supremacy of
the law.
Glickism is forever doomed in
that region. Democrats as well as
Republicans vie with each other in
sustaining the law, notwithstand-
ing that Click has urged Demo-
Gratis to disregard the law, by say
ing cit cannot DE enforced without
resorting to tyranny and despot-

Ballot and Bustle.

If woman had the ballot what
k,uld she do with it? 1t isn't long
Epough for a belt or big enough for
! hustle. Cincinnati Chronicle.
1t might be "long enough" to
belt some of the old bloats out of
tice and "big enough" to make
|hers "bustle" around to attend to
|nblio matters. You can be sure
hat lots of old politicians would
|ipe the tobacco from their mouths,
hid go to che wing cloves and brown
bf9e grains if that ballot passed
|lrrent on election day.-Inte,'
)cedn.
All history records woman's vic
prizes during the 'sbelt" and "bus-
lie" dispensations. The ballot is
be sure weapon of modern revolu-
IONS, and when Woman seizes it
gainst the Liquor Traffic, the days
i political pigmies that say you
ant prohibit" will be rapidly
numbered.

muddy, &c. It's the old cry, and a
lie oft repeated begins to seem like
the truth, and very excellent peo-
pie are deceived thereby.
The second huge fallacy is the at
tempting to regulate the LIQUOR
traffic by taxation, high license, or
what not, on the plea that half
loaf is better than none. Yes, a
half loaf is better than none at all,
but let it be bread, not a scorpion
with a sting. [Cheers and cries of
Amen" 1t is historic fact that
license is conspicuous failure and
taxation only a subterfuge that
sweeps the traffic into the realms
OF respectability, gilds the saloons
and destroys all the same your sons
and mine. 1t sanctions the traffic
and helps to perpetuate it.

Myra Clark Gaines Again.

Mrs. Myra Gaines, of New Or
leans, has won another suit for the
possession of lands inside the city
limits, after 40 years of constant
litigation, and it will probably be
carried to the U. S. Supreme Court.
She might have had the cases clos
ed long ago, but she seemed to en-,
ioy the trouble they cost her. She
saws she proposes to do good with
the fortune when she gets it, and
merely wants the satisfaction oil
having clear title.

P,thlng beyond, and we must look

True Test.

Have any Christians ever seen
saloon respectable enough to make
it desirable place for their sons
to pass their evenings in? Does
any one believe that it is possible
to make it SO respectable that
mothers will advise them to visit
it? Does any one believe that tits
possible to SO conduct saloon that
it is not an injury to the morals of
any people among whom it is loca-
ted? If the answer is "no," then
how can Christians favor the Ii
sensing of a saloon by the State ?
