THE PROHIBlTIONlSTS.
The Liquor Trade Jeopardized by Their
'Indomitable Perseverance"

The Liquor Trade Jeopardized by Their
'Indomitable Perseverance"
For two years past some of our trade
have been wrapping themselves in a
cloak of security and telling us I'VE
have got the Prohibitionists squelched."
We have, replied: "You haven't. You
have only defeated them in certain local
tiles, but they never sleep, and their ia
natical zeal will inspire them to seek
new fields for conquest"
Some of our prominent patrons have
recently said to us, are you not taking
up more space in The Criterion than is
necessary on the subject of prohibition?
We answer, we think not, for our trade
needs all the facts on that point possible
to warn them against the untiring energy
of the misguided enemies of our trade.
The ant has for all time been credited
with the most untiring energy of any
species of existing life.
When their castle palace is disturbed
or destroyed, they at once set to work
with renewed energy to restore their
wasted places, or migrate to new field,
hoping to meet with less distractions in
carrying out their persistent intentions.
Such is the history and indomitable
perseverance of the misguided and inn
practicable Prohibitionists or local op-
tionists for getting tried results all over
the country.
Financial loss, almost amounting to
bankruptcy, in all localities where the
revenue has been lost by the nonlicensed
sale of liquors is a fact beyond dispute.
Taxation must in all such localities be
levied on other industries to cover the
demands of government, and the liquor
trade has at no time objected to paying
a reasonable license. Be on your guard
at all points and watch your sleepless
enemy. Chicago Midas Criterion, Lead

He Votes 1t Just the Same.

Oh. I'm an antisaloonist, a redhot temperance
man.
To root out all the rumholes from the country
is my plan.
belong to the grand old party of antislavery
fame:
True. it's not for prohibition, but vote it just
the same.
The saloonist is criminal, his business is a
crime,
And he who helps to shield him is his partner
every time.
My party stands for license, and it's a cruel
shame,
But when election comes round vote it just
the same.
I hate rum soaked Democrat, a Mugwump
somewhat more,
And, oh! Prohibitionist utterly abhor.
But for the grand old party have no word OF
blame.
It neer does wrong, but if it did I'd vote it just
the same.
Oh, all good men and honest are in the G. o. p.
Truth, virtue and morality are its monopoly.
To all the temperance in the land it justly lays
claim.
'Tis true the ummies run it, but we vote it
Just the same.
And so long live the G. o. P. Confusion to its
foes.
Just let us have the ofices-we care not what
else goes.
No matter for its principles; no matter what
its name;
No matter who's its candidate-we vote it
Just the same.

The Prohibition Gun.

Local option and high license combined are
as much better than state prohibition as a
double barreled gun is better than a single bar
relied gun.-Detroit Tribune.
1t isn't the number of barrels to a gun
that does the killing. The high license
barrel of your "gun" hasn't any breech
pin, and the local option barrel won't
shoot beyond the muzzle. The prohibi-
tion repeating rifle is ':loaded for BEAR"
and if it don't kill at the first shot it is
always ready for another. Moreover,
you place your blunderbuss in the hands
of party that is more anxious to bat
ter out the brains of the temperance peo-
pie than to hurt the liquor traffic. We
propose to put our brand new Winches-
ter in the hands of party that knows
how to use it.

The Battle Must Go On.

The battle is On between the liquor
traffic and our modern civilization. We
may poohpooh this traffic, we may at
tempt to waive it aside, we may compro-
mise with it, but all the same the battle
has got to be fought that will end it or
end our civilization. Says Lord Ran
dolph Churchill in that remarkable
speech of his in England:
1.-The liquor interest is an organization
so powerful that it is almost like Prus-
sian army. 1t can be modified at any
moment and brought to bear upon the
point that is threatened. 1t has already
directly overthrown two governments" ;"
And now it is this immensely power
full English liquor interest that is buying
up the breweries and distilleries of this
country

LATE JAMES BLACK.
BRIEF SKETCH OF THE NOTED PRO-
HlBITIONIST.

He Was the First Candidate of tho Prohi-
bition Party For President-His Useful
and Active Life-some of His Writings
on Temperance.
Hon. James Black. who died at his
home in Lancaster, Pa, Dec. 16, 1898,
was one of the foremost leaders of the
temperance movement. He was born
Sept. 90, 1923, at Lewisburg, Pa. He
lived on farm until 12 years Of age,
when he obtained employment in saw
mill, earning sufficient money to pay for
private tuition during the winter months.
In 1889 he became a member of the en-
gineer corps engaged in completing the
Susquehanna and Tidewater canal. He
saved his earnings and paid his way for
two years through the academy at Lew
isburg He then studied law-and was
admitted to the bar in 1916, since which
time he has been engaged in the success
full and honorable pursuit of his profess
sion. In 1850 to 1852 he was financial
agent for the construction of the At
lantic and st. Lawrence railroad, now
known as the Grand Trunk line from
Montreal, and in 1882 he helped success
fully to straighten up the affairs of the
Danville, Hazleton and Wilkesbarre rail
road.
Mr.. Black went into the Prohibition
movement during the Maine law CAM
paign i'll Pennsylvania in 1852, making
his first speech in that campaign. He at
once took first rank as a leader. So sue
cesSful were the PrChibitionists under
his leadership that in two years their
vote had increased to ), 400 in the county,
and in 1866 they elected two of their five
candidates for the legislature. The great
questions of the civil war came on, and
Mr.. Black, in common with other Pro
hibitionists, helped to organize the Re-
publican party, being a delegate to the
first Republican national convention,
which in 1856 nominated Fremont.
In 1860 Mr.. Black was elected grand
chief of the Pennsylvania l. o. G. T. In
1865 he helped to organize the National
Temperance society and publication
house and in 1869 the successful Ocean
Grove Camp Meeting association. He
presided at the national convention
which met IN Chicago III 1869 to organ
ize the national Prohibition party, and
was the party's first candidate for presi-
dent in 1872, polling 5,609 votes in the
United States. From 1876 to 1880 he
was chairman of the national Prohibi-
ton committee. Since then he has been
the party's nominee for number of i'm
portant offices, including judge of the
supreme court.
Among Mr.. Blacks writings are a
strong pamphlet entitled lis There a
Necessity For Prohibition Party?'
QS75), brief History of Prohibition
QSSO) and History of the Prohibition
Party" Q8s5). Mr.. Black married Eliza
Murray in 1916. Of their six children,
two survive-Mrs. E. Lane Scofeld and
Captain William NJ. Black of the United
States army. He was prominent mem
ber of the Methodist church.

Third-The saloon forces on the mar
ket 10 per cent more liquor than would
otherwise bo consumed. This l can
prove. Establish prohibition in any
town or city, and the saloon uses all its
power to repeal it. Why? Why do New
York whisky dealers-wholesale dealers
object to prohibition in Maine? If
they can send their goods direct to the
consumer there and get all the profit,
why do they object to the saloon being
prohibited? Why do they wish to break
down prohibition in Kansas? Because
they know the supply in those states is
not equal to the demand that would ex-
ist with the open saloon.
Fourth-Aslong as the saloon is a le-
galized institution it is impossible to edu-
cate the community againstit. The trou-
BILE with our saloon keepers now is that
they are too respectable, have too much
money, are too we'll dressed, too good
business men-hence it is hard to get
them punished for the most fragrant
breaches of law. The saloon keeper COM
plains that prohibition makes his busi-
ness mean and low. That's just what |
want. The meaner man is the better
qualified he is for that business. want
to make it crawl. l want to make it bite
the dust. want to drive it into back
alleys and cellars and down to the hell
where it belongs.
x**
Fifth--The temptation of the weak is
increased by the open saloon, the very
class we should protect. l am told any
man can get drunk under prohibition.
Well, any fool knows that. What | com
plain of is that, under license, thousands
get drunk who don't want to. Almost
every evening as go toward my home
pass saloon fitted up.with plate glass
nd every elegance, and within one of
the very best bands discoursing music to
draw in the young men and lead them to
ruin. Iwould make that allurement less.
But finally, Can we succeed in closing
the saloons? a young man asked me the
other day if thought it was possible. l
said to him: you, q young man, and
talk about possible. 1t will be done as
sure as God Almighty lives! l expect
that in 25 years from this hour there
will not be an open saloon from sea to
sea and from Alaska to Florida.
You tell me of the saloon victories in
Massachusetts,, Pennsylvania and Rhode
Island. l answer, every saloon victory
is simply one more layer laid on top of
the dam that keeps prohibition from
breaking over. 1t is simply the day of
wrath postponed that the destruction
may be more sudden and more terrific.
The waters of public opinion, sad and
indignant, are silently gathering from
all the hills of the pure country side, the
hydraulic pressure hourly increasing.
And that dam is made of materials that
won't stand a strain. It's been stuffed
with glass bottles and greenbacks. It's
been plastered all over with newspapers
again and again, and now they have put
another layer on top of the rotton struc-
ture to raise the obstructed waters of
temperance higher till they sweep it
away. Every saloon is built right below
that dam, and when the food comes and
the waters break over, the last one will
be swept away forever! Tremendous
app1ausa

The Charity of Rumsellers.

What have the saloons ever done for
humanity? How many souls have they
saved? How many people have they
clothed, except the saloon keepers fam
lily? When we have strike, the saloon
keeper often contributes more than the
dry goods man, but he robs them of more.
I never knew one of them to give cent
that he did not expect a dollar in return.

Things to Remember Just Now.

Blood boils without fire.
Selfshness is shortsightedness.
Be a reasoner rather than an arguer.
The man who is right can afford to
wait.
There is no need to apply pump to a
spouting well.
Better candidates wrong and party
right than candidates right and party
wrong.

THEORIES ABOUT Badness.
Why Does the Hair Fall Out on the Top Of
the Head and Not EIsewheree

A question that often arises and is
seldom answered twice in the same way
is as to why the hair falls out on the
top of the head and not at the back and
ON the sides. The old fashioned theory
marked by mans hat, and as nobody
has ever offered conclusive proof to the
contrary that explanation may be the
correct one.
The case was stated the other day to
two very intelligent BARRIERS. One of
them thought that the reason why bald
ness occurred at the top of the head was
that the brain came closest TO the sur
face there, and this being an age in
which many brains are kept going at
high tension the abnormal amount of
blood thus carried TO the Uranium pro-
duced a kind of fever in the upper scalp.
Fevers, as is well known, often result
in the falling out of the hair.
The second barber gave variety 70 the
discussion by enlarging upon the notion
that he had formed from the observa-
ton and reflection of many years.
you will notice, said he, that the
Arst hair a baby has comes in ON the top
Of the head and falls ont haeore the
child is many weeks old. The hair that
comes to stay grows thicker and stronger
ON the sides and at the bsck, and i have
IN idea that the growth ON the top Of
the head is always the weakest from
infancy ON to old age. 3"
"But how do you account for the fact
that women do not grow bald as men
dor" queried q skeptical listener.
Account for it? / don't have to 40
count for it," replied the ready witted
second barber. 1T isn't 30. Why,
used to work in an establishments where
they had nine chairs in tn mems de-
partment and l 1 in the women's, and j
want to tell you that / learned some
things there that the average man and
- average barber. too, for that mat
~. doesn't know. II you could appre-
oiats Is do the number Of women who
have false hair SO artisticalIy arranged
that nobody can tell it from their own
natural tresses, you wouldn't ask why
men grow bald and the other sex
d0nn't."
Hairdressers have their pet theories on
this subject as we'll as BARRIERS, and some
a them are very plausible. But il you
dhould ask doctor who was not
ashamed to confess his ignorance the
chances are that he would tell you no
didn't know much about it-Washing-
ton Star.
