We believe that, under the clrcum-
stances, the commissioners have acted
wisely. and have taken the most effec-
tive step possible for the enforcement
of the prohibitory law, which,

of county attorneys, Is being very wide
ly violated The fact that the liquor ell.
ement Is unanimous in its condemnation
of the action of the commissioners In
this matter, should cause the advocates
Of law and order here to pause before
lending their aid 10 defeat a measure
which promises 10 accomplish so much
good.
