Attorney General Kellogg Addresses the
Friends or Prohibition. They
Must Relax their Efforts for
the Upholding Of the
Law.

Attorney General Kellogg has issued
the following address, To the friends of
prohibition:
To the People:
The more l become converSant with
working of the prohibitory law. the more
am impressed with the necessity of the
wholesome public sentiment in its favor
in each community. In all those portions
of the state where the public sentiment
is favorable, the officers have no difficulty
in securing a strict enforcement of the
law A favorabl,. public sentiment active.
courageous and aggressive. is needed in
every city, town, village and country
neighborhood. The people must not relax
their efforts. Law and order leagues, w.
&. I. L. societies, and other temperance
organizations. public meetings and indi-
vidual efforts are all necessary in uphold
ing, sustaining and enforcing the law.
With the approach of the time for mu
nicipal elections. special duty is devolv-
ed upon the loyal citizens o: the state.
The constitution must be upheld and the
laws enforced. The saloon influence
should no. be permitted to dictate nomi
nations nor to elect officers.

SANKEY'S Machine Gun.

The prints of the English speaking
world have been full of stories about
the machine gun which Henry NJ
Stanley carried with him in his las
desperate venture in Africa. And vel
it is an old story. 1t occurs to this
paper to properly tell it: The weapon
so much talked about is a Maxim gun.
1t was invented by citizen of these
United States He was poor and
sought encouragement from our gov
ernment. he got uUnO. H. "o4ft W
England, where they saw its merits at
once and made him rich. So his gun
is under control of the British govern
ment At the time when he com
menced his investigations the three
great machine guns of the world were
the Calling, the Hotchkiss and the
Nordenhotf-the first two American,
the last English. There was little diff
ference in their merits, save that the
Hotchkiss was lighter and made for
ready transportation. Maxim, an
American boy, said to himself, there
are faults about these machine guns
/. The turning of the crank prevents
anything like an aim. 2. Often the
cartridges hang fire little, but the
crank turns on, and they explode al
the wrong time. 3. Most of all, the
rapid firing heats the gun so that it is
useless and even dangerous in few
seconds. The Maxim gun overcame
all these defects. 1t is automatic. II
needs no crank. Pull the trigger once
and it continues to load and fire itself
SO long as the supply OF cartridges
lasts. The power of the recoil" does
all the work, even to shooting jet of
water along the barrel to keep it cool.
1t fires 700 shots in a minute, and all
that the operator has to do is TO aim it.
This is the Stanley gun. You cannot
see it in the United States now, for it
is owned by the government of Great
Britain. Cincinnati Enquirer.
