THE MERITS OF THE BILL.

State Superintendent Howard Russell
has made the following statements to
the press in regard to the bill:
1.-THE present lOcal-optiOn law of the
State only provides for an expression of
| the local will of the people in the town.
ships outside of any municipal corpora
tiOn.
"The provisions of the Dow law can
not be called local option, for the
Dow law leaves the whole question in
the hands of the council, and they are
usually elected upon other issues, so
that the will of the people upon the
saloon question cannot be freely OBJ
tanned in the municipal corporations of
Ohio. The Haskell bill provides for
genuine local option for all parts of the
State.
THE principle of local choice has by
this bill been extended to counties and
wards of the cities, and if majority of
the people prefer no saloon they have
the privilege of excluding it from their
county, city ward, municipal corpora
ton or township. If any county as q
county should decide to allow saloons,
some of the smaller fractions of that
county might still be free from them.
"Another valuable feature of the bin
is the requirement made upon druggists
to keep a record of all sales of intoxi-
eating liquor upon prescription and
allowing public inspection of the same.
There has been a good deal of sly work
done by unprincipled druggists, which
this provision is intended to overcome.
There will be no objection to this pro-
vision on the part of the druggists who
are doing a legitimate business. This
law, when enacted, will bring the ques-
ton up for vote every two years. In
Massachusetts, they vote every year and
the plan is popular there, for it keeps
the question agitated, and agitation is
what is needed upon the temperance
side.
1.-THE anti-saloon people are dissatis-
fed with the rrovisionsOf TIE township
law which requires rood deal OF work
before vote can be taken. There will
be no extra cost in the holding of an
election upon the question now as it can
be done upon the same ballot at a
regular election as the bill provides.
"Since my employment as Superin- |
tendent of the Anti-Saloon League last !
July | have visited over half the |
Counties of the State, and have heard |
from correspondents in all the Counties
and am certain that the Haskell bill |
will be popular with the anti-salOOn

ABLE ORGANIZERS EMPLOYED.

In addition to State Superintendent
Russell, three other salaricd men have
been employed rs District Managers or
Organizers. They are: Mr.. Harry B.
White, of Toledo, formerly State organ
izer for the Good Tempiars; Rev. S. w.
Meek, of Ravenna, and L. G. Dinwiddie,
ESQ, of Springfield. Four departments
of work are carried on by the League:
1st, Agitation; I'd, Legislation: Sd, En-
forcement of Law; and 4th, Organiza-
ton of the Young Men and Boys. All
these lines of work viii be pushed by
the League this year. A better law is
very much needed in Ohio. This will
be secured by enacting genuine local

LOCAL OPTION EXTENSION.

The legislative work for this winter
will be directed to an effort to secure a
straight local option bill for Counties,
Cities, Wards of Cities, Villages and
Townships. The bill introduced in the
House few days ago by Mr.. Haskell,
House file No. 127), is warmly sup
ported by the League. 1t provides that
the question of saloon or no saloon shall
be submitted upon the Australian ballot
in each County and voting precinct in
the State at the next general election in
November, and every second year there
after. In every County, City, City
Ward, Village or Township in which a
majority of the votes are in favor of
prohibition of Saloons, all persons shall
discontinue the business within forty
days after the election. Druggists are
required to keep register of sales upon
prescription open to public inspection,
and prosecuting attorneys are to prose
cute violations.

Every gold dollar now in the treas
ury was put there by the bonds issued
last spring If it were not for the
bond issue. therefore, Secretary Car
Isle would not have a dollar of gold
with which to redeem notes. IL is un-
fortunate that the treasury ever got
into a condition where IL became nee
essary to replenish it by borrowing,
and the trouble, of course, is that the
the United States has fallen into the

There is momentous point raised

WHAT OF ENGLANDq

The latest announcement that comes
from London is TO the effect that on
November 9, the birthday of the
Prince of Wales his mother, Queen
Victoria, will abdicate the Englis
throne in his favor and that he will be
crowned king under the title Of Ed
ward VII The immediate cause for
this proposed change is said to be her
maJesty's serious and increasing phys
ical infirmities-she is practically an
invalid from combined attacks Of
rheumatic gout, dropsy, verbose veins
and what not What changes in tie
policy of the English government, IL
any, would ensue such change in the
head of that country, it is certain that
the reign of the retiring queen, ex-
tending over fifty-seven years Of the
worlds most momentous history. will
not be improved upon as for the peace
OF the nation and the contentment OF
its people as a whole.
1t has been freely predicted that

the British throne, the throne and
. sceptre will be set aside and the goy-
sernment take the form Of the repub-
lie. The transition would be an easy
one, for the concessions that have
been made during the past half cen
tury to the popular demands for par
ticipation in the affairs of government
have left but little more than tie
name TO the monarchy and the cot.
tinuance of this little would depend
altogether upon the manner in which
the new ruler should deport himself.
II he should follow the conservativ,
and benignant lead Of his mother
there would probably be no kick, tc

should attempt to carry his well
known sportive ideas and inclinations
into the affairs of tie nation, he would

In Lewelling is as corrupt as the Re
publicans of Kansas represent him to
be, why doR't they institute criminal
proceedings against him? They have
the courts and would have no trouble in
convicting him. The reason is probably
explained by the circumstance that
the Republican party OF the state
stands convicted before the people on
the same charge, aud such prosecution
would rc suit in the overwhelming
election of Mr.. Overmyer, the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor The fact
is, this last proposition is the only
thing left for the people Of Kansas to
do IL they would save the state from
irretrievable ruin in name and credit.
