Laws prohibiting the sale Of intox-
!. .scating liquors are in force in three
States n which the editor of this paper
8 has lived. In no one of these-Kan-
sas, Iowa and North Dakota, is the
law enforced. It was not meant to
be. The prohibitory laws were en-
acted at the instance of the kind peo-
5ple who say in loud voice: "Lord
thank thee that am not as other
men are," and then sneak into back
door, take drink, and then sneak
cut. The use of intoxicants may not
be a good thing, but all are sure that
hypocrisy is not. Here in North
Dakota the law is not enforced. Why
hot repeal it? What good is it? Does
it make any: difference in the amount
of LIQUOR consumed?-Devils Lake
News.
Are the laws prohibiting murder
and horse stealing enforced? Do our

der or theft9 No! Well why not

the other. He says that the free silver
movement is mostly confined to the
western states. Mr.. Warner wears a
fine looking gold badge on which is in
scribed "William Mckinley for presi-

The cause of so many deaths at
Mayville is not from diptheria as re-
ported but is caused from whiskey
drinking. A blind pigger tried to
make some whiskey himself and sold
It to the parties who died. The blind
pigger very wisely took drink also,
and he, too, has passed over the
divide. This ought to be good
temperance lesson to whiskey drink.
