That Next Step.

Nearly six years ago, when the Dispen-
sary Law was enacted, its advocates apol-
ogized to the prohibitionists by saying it
was step in the line of prohibition.
The title of the Act is ''an Act to prohibit
the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquors." &c. We have been patiently
waiting for it's apologists to take the
second step, but now they are lodging
the issue by undertaking to make the
people believe it is the best solution of
the whiskey problem. and they try to get
out of taking the next step by cracking
that old chestnut, prohibition don't
prohibit"
We have been made to believe that
everybody is already prohibited from
selling liquor-only the State has that
right. Now, let our friends take the 9TH
er step, and prohibit tue State from doing
what she has prohibited her citizens from
doing, aud then we will sec whether pro-
hibition prohibits or not. Step up, gen
tlemen; you said one step had been
taken, and if it takes two steps to prohi-
bition, step right up.

subject, but not now.

Spain Sues For Peace.

to President Mckinley through M.

made:
ssThe French Ambassador on behalf
Of the Government Of Spain and by di-
rection Of the Spanish Minister Of for

Of peace.

The papers are making contempt
ible fuss about who should receive
the honor for destroying Cervera S
heet-Sampson or schley. When it
comes to honoring individuals, it
belongs to Bob Evans, commander OF
the vessel and crew who first discovered
the fleeing Spaniards and opened the
fight. AS commander-in-chief of the
vessels the responsibility rested on
the shoulders Of Sampson under whose
instructions the other vessels were
and arc acting. But why make row
about it when there are honors suffi-
cientfor all engaged. America expects
Americans to do their duty at all
times, anyway.

Interesting statistics are at hand
showing that the value Of all the
breadstuffs exported from the United
States for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1898, aggregates the unprecedented
sum Of 1924, ,7O6,O6O. This represents
an increase of s126, ,S48,089 over the
figures for the fiscal year preceding,
or 64 per cent. While the major por-
tion Of this increase is divided among
the northern and western ports, the
figures show that the southern ports
come in for decidedly the largest per-
centages of gain.

If the United States were at war
with sane nation, having a govern
ment controlled by the ordinary
dictates of common sense; there would
have been plea for peace weeks ago
surely after the destruction Of the
only efficient squadron which it had
aaoat. But there is no reckoning on
Spain. The ignorance Of its people is
SO dense, the Government is so much
more concerned for the safety Of the
dynasty than for the welfare Of the
nation, that it will apparently not
yield until thoroughly smashed.

The American losses in the Santiago
campaign will not reach a thousand
men, since many Of the wounded will
be able to return to their commands
in short time. If the yellow fever

go down in history as one Of the most
Inexpensive in modern warfare, con-
sidering its importance.

When this war broke out we Ameri-
cans thought our country a third or
fourth rate naval power. Foreigners
regarded us as fifth or sixth rate
power. Now all the foreign critics,
agree in saying that with our master
full gupnery, our wonderful cannon
and our superbly constructed ships
our navy is able to hold its own against
that Of any other nation in the world.
England alone, perhaps, is our su-
perior, and England is our fast and

the field in Alabama for the August
election except that the Democratic
nominees for the Stase Supreme bench
are unopposed. The parties repre-

The machine Republicans are expected
to vote the populist ticket. The

The Commissioner of Pensions, in a
circular on the mortality of the Spanish
war, asserts that "the statistics in his
Office show that the percentage OF deaths
in camps from disease was much less
than during the Civil War"
His stat istics of death for four months
in the Spanish war Ito September 3O)
show 306 f'om wounds and exactly 1900
from disease-eight from disease to
every one from wounds!
The statistics in his office of deaths for
the four years OF the Civil War show 93,-
AIS from wounds AMI 1926 from dis
ease-two from disease to one from
wounds,
During the four years of the Civil War
one man out of every fifteen in the field
died OF disease. During tie four months
Of the Spanish war there was one ont Of
sixty. At that rate of mortality had the
Spanish war lasted four years one out Of
every five volunteers would laye died of

on the four grave criminal charges pre-
ferred by hlm against the Levy Court of

They were NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
'Mismanagement,' "Extravagant Ap.
preparations" and "Crooked Contracts.
In making his charges why was it
that Mr.. Bancroft, journalist (?) did not
follow item up by proving the same?
Can Mr.. Bancroft answer the uherv?
We think not, for the simple reason that
Mr.. Bancroft knew when be printed
these four specific charges that he lad
no proof.
The public at large are becoming tired

and when he publishes such charges
against men Of unquestioned high stand
