Some three weeks ago a fine fur
overcoat was picked up near the L.
f. & ID railroad crossing on Sixth-st.
In the pockets of the coat was found
one or two pass books, on some
grocery stores in MINI eapolis. also
on the cover of the books was the
name of Isaac Wood conductor, Min
neapolis. 1t is somewhat mysterious
how the coat came there, as there
does not seem to be any conductor
by the name of Isaac Wood running
on the l.. i. & ID. railroad.

1t Is Well to Say,
IF There was q Flaao IN It,"

AS clearly as ever the people
spoke, they demanded the re-enact-
ment of the Scott Law. 1t en- bod

years of liquor controversy and
confusion in Ohio, and if there was
constitutional flaw in it, it was the
fault of the foolish, Anticipated, lop-
sided and leather-headed constitu-

Even MuIish Murat Halstead, the
venomous editor of the Gazette, very
well knows there's an outrageous
falsehood in the first line of the
above; and every sensible man
and woman in Ohio knows there's
vicious error and iniquity in every
other line of the item.
The last time the people of Ohio
spoke on the matter, $4,000 of
them Cbesides the thousands not
counted) demanded Prohibition,
while only about 10000 approved
the g. Scott Law" principle, or,
rather lack of principle.
And instead of gathered wis
DOM" the "Scott Law" embodies
simply the studied trickery and
treachery of politicians to evade
the Constitution of the State, so
as to reach the cupidity of tax
payers.
And, it certainly is most iniquit-
GUS for would-be leader of public
opinion to denounee righteous
constitutional law of the State, be-
cause it stands in the way of a
scheming party in an. emergency.
1t is a0eU to say "If there's taaao in
it." 1t Is all flaw!
The Scott Law, or any other law,
intended to fitch and force money
from the criminal liquor traffic, is
not only plainly unconstitutional,
but is blackmail, and most corrupt

The Mission Band Entertainment
at the Baptist Church last Friday
evening was a happy success in
every way. The parts performed
by the wee little 2 to 4 year old
missionary prodigies, were at once
most remarkable and instructive.
Little Charley Tavenner with his
harp was immense, and baby Essie
Henson singing lullabys to her
doll was the "star" Of the evening.
The representations Of natives Of
heather lands, by the young ladies,
were happily conceived and admir-
ably presented.
Of course the cake and ice cream
part of the program was especially
enjoyed by the little folk.
