A Chance to Make Money

In the past three months we have
cleared S66075 selling Dish Washers.
l did most of the work, my brother
helped some. I expect to do better
next month, as every Dish Washer sold
advertises itself, and sells several more;
don't have to leave the house. PEG.
pie hear about the Dish Washers and
send for them, they are so cheap. Any
lady or gentleman can make money in
this business, as every family wants a
Dish washer. Any of your readers
who have energy enough to apply for
an agency can easily make from So to
Sl2 per day. You can get full particu-
lars by addressing Mound City Dish
Washer Co., st. Louis, Mo. They help
you to get started and then you can
make money awful fast A.LC.

A Cerrespondent's Opinion OF the Prohi-
hilton Party and Ticket.

'bition Party and Ticket.
Written for The Leader.l
The popular idea in politics today
seems to be that governments must be
run along strict party lines, with party
loyalty as the inspiration and official
spoils as the reward. The Prohibition
party has a great mission in educating
the public mind away from this idea
and to the truer principle that politi-
cal parties are worse than worthless,
except they be used as factors for the
greatest good to the greatest number,
or as the means to enact laws for the
best interests of the people. When
they no longer do this they should be
cast off as filthy linen, and principle
should rise superior to party, moral
courage usurp party pride or preju-
dice and manly men, because "a time
like this demands it," should shake his
shackles loose with an eye single to
his country's call and good, and be a
patriot true as we'll as a free man
with God given privilege to wear no
letters save those upon which Heaven
has set its seal.
The very name of Prohibition" has
become to be construed as something
Objectionable, and opposed to that
liberty of action that its advocates
urge upon every citizen of whatever
name or belief.
The principle Of prohibition has been
recognized since the "Thou shalt not"
in the Garden of Eden down to the
statute books of our commonwealth,
beginning with at shall not be law
full"
Shall not the rights of individuals
be subordinated to the rights of COM
munities p? Apply this principle to the
sale of alcoholic liquors as a beverage,
and do you not at once see that the
best interests of community require
the enactment of such laws as will
make this traffic unlawful What
need to rehearse the oft-repeated ar
gument
All the other political parties pro-
tect the traffic because they are more
or less dependent upon it for means
and votes-and right here is where the
need of the untrammeled Prohibition
party comes in. But it stands not
alone for the abolition of the liquor
traffic, but is pledged to tighten the
burdens of an oppressed people and
give to our State and country such a
government as will secure equal rights
to all-special favors to none. 1t is a
Party, believe, actuated by pure mo-
tives, and has but one object in view,--
the glory of God in the uplifting of
humanity.
Believing all this I expect to vote
for men, regardless of party, although
l hold it to be true that both parties
and persons should be incorruptible-
should stand for the great principle of
truth and right to the end of all things.
And now congratulate the people
of Lincoln county upon the splendid
ticket that has been flung to the
breeze by the new party, about which !
will have something to say next week
time and The LEADERS space admit

WHERE THEY STAND.
Resolutions Adopted by the Prohibition
lists of Lincoln County, August
,a.a foos

Resolutions Adopted by the Prohfbftion-
lists of Lincoln County, August
30th, 1925.
Resolved. That the Prohibition par
ty of Lincoln county, in mass conven-
ton assembled, pledges its legislative
candidates to the passage of a State
law prohibiting the sale, and the man
ufacture for sale of all intoxicating
liquors, for beverage purposes, and
providing for the sale of pure wines
and liquors, at cost, for medicinal, sac
ramental and mechanical uses only, in
the several counties, under strict State
supervision. We also favor the sub
mission to vote of the people, by the
next Legislature, of a constitutional
amendment embracing the above pro-
visions.
To the carrying out of this policy we
cordially invite the support of all pa
triotic citizens and friends of law and
order.
Resolved, That recognizing the urg-
ent necessity for reform in our cur
rency system, whereby the control of
the couutry's fiances will be taken out
of the hands of banking corporations
and syndicates and restored to the
general government where it rightful-
ly belongs, this meeting declares its
hearty endorsement of the currency
plank of the National Prohibition par
ty adopted at Cincinnati June %, 1892,
to-wit:
The money of the country should
consist of gold, silver and paper, and
be issued by the general government
only, and in sufficient quantity to meet
the demands of business and give full
opportunity for the employment of Ia
Dor. To this end an increase in the
volume Of money is demanded. No in
dividual or corporation should be al
lowed to make any profit through it's
issue. 1t should be made a legal ten
der for the payment of all debts, pub
lie and private. It's volume should
be fixed at definite sum per capita
and made to increase with our increase
in population.

A Substitute for Ice.

Chicago has been interested re-
Gently by some experiments with
a new chemical compound design
ed to take the place of ice. The
chemical costs 20 cents a pound.
1t is placed in the ice box of re-
frigerator, a small amount of wa
ter is added to canse it to dis
solve; the refrigerator is then
closed and cold results Immediate
ly. The inventor says that the
compound contains II ingredients,
and the formula is a secret. The
mixture is light pink in color, and
is in the form of crystals like
coarse salt. 1t is said to be per-
fectly harmless, and has an aka
line taste. When moistened it in
stantly becomes intensely cold.
The effect lasts twenty-four hours,
or until the crystals are entirely
dissolved. Then it is placed on a
fire and "boiled down" until the
water evaporates and the crystals
are left in their original form. 1t
is then ready for use again by
simply adding fresh water. 1t is
asserted that the chemicals lose
none of their properties by the
process and that the crystals can
be used for years. During the
Chicago tests ice was frozen the
thickness of window glass in a
few minutes, and to the thickness
of two or three inches in less than
six hours. The experiments were
successful in every way, and ice
dealers ought to be particularly
interested in them. There is lit
tie doubt that before many years
a refrigerating apparatus will be d.
vised by which houses may be cool
ed in summer as easily as they are
now warmed in winter. The new
refrigerating compound may be
an important factor in the solu'
ton of this problem.-Ex.
