remnerance in Arkansas.

There is a popular notion that Ar.
kansas is "bOwie-knife" state, a
lawless and an ignorant state.
shared this notion before | went there
cannot disprove the ignorance of
the country districts. AS said, more
money is needed to make the public
school system effective. But in its
general aspect the state is as orderly
and moral as any. The laws against
carrying concealed weapons are strict,
and are enforced. 1t is a fairly tenn
perate state. Uuder the high license
and local option laws, prohibition pre-
walls in two.thirds of the state, and
the popular vote is strictly enforced.
In forty-eight of the seventy five
counties no license is granted, in 9TH
er counties only single town votes
license, and in many of the remaining
counties many towns refuse it. In
five counties only is liquor perfectly
free. special law prohibits liquor
selling within five miles of college;
within three miles of church or a
school, a majority of adult inhabitants
can prohibit it. With regard to liquor
selling, woman suffrage practically ex-
lists. The law says that on petition of
a majority of the adult population in
any district the county judge must
refuse license. The women, therefore
without going into politics, sign the
petitions and create prohibition

DR.. Talmage says:


81 have a mass of facts showing con-
clusively that wherever High License
has been tried it has proved an utter
failure. Ii is the biggest humbug of
this century, invented by the powers of
darkness to defeat temperance. 1t is
un. American, unfair and un-Christians
1t is un- American and unfair because
it allows one man who has a lot of
money to pay for a license to engage
in a business which 1t forbids to anoth-
er man who may be just as moral and
honest man as the rich one, but
hasn't enough money TO pay for the
license. If the business is a legiti-
mate one, it is unfair and criminal TO
forbid poor men TO engage in it and
allow rich men to do so. III the bust.
ness is wrong. it is criminal to allow
any man to engage in it.
s'High License is un-Christiau, be-
cause it is tie price of blood. / don't
care whether the fee be 81. 900 or ST.
GOO, 900. Every dollar of it the Gov.
eminent takes, admitting the traffic to
be wrong, is blood money.
I'm future ages, when the history
of the temperance reform is written,
it will be recorded that High License
was the greatest hindrance and set
hack to Lelnperauce that the reform

What DR.. Brooks Says.

DR.. John A. Brooks, late Prohibit
ton candidate for vice president, says:
Il have lived through the period of
free whisky in part and now for many
years under license and taxation, and
| do not hesitate to affirm that the
evils of the traffic have multiplied UNI
der license. The saloon system is far
more pernicious than the old grocery
system of forty years ago, as it pre-
vailed in my native state. Statistics
affirm the fact that under license the
amount of intoxicants consumed has
increased in much greater ratio than
the population. The traffic has
largely left the semi.respectable gro
Gerry for the saloon, where all respon-
sibility is thrown off and every con.
ceivable means restOrted to seduce
and corrupt the young.

Our village board had quite racket
over the appointment of supervisor.
Mr.. Fithian elect failed to qualify and
because the Board saw fit not to ap.
point him the Democratic portion re-
signed and Republicans were appointed
to fill vacancies. The row did not &C.
cur until another license had been
granted, so we have two saloons.
Some of the appointees will not serve,
so we haven't full board vet.
