trade seek credit from them and pay
cash at the saloon. Does not this
cause merchants hardship3 Credit
is not customary at the saloon be-
cause the debt contracted is not rec
ognized by law, as value received can
not be shown. There are farmers in
this county that can testify to the
fact that during the no license year
OF this town, they paid of more Of
their mortgage than under a license
administration. Now if some of our
friends are so anxious about their
county brethren why not take temp.
tation from them instead of placing
it before them, it is not their welfare
they are interested in, it is a scheme
to obtain their money to lessen tho
taxes of the village through the sale
of drugs worse than poison.
! Our village raises by taxation s.,
472.N for school purposes to educate
the children to become intelligent and
moral mon and women and for the
paltry sum of $3.50 places before
them the open saloon, which degrades
them beyond the power of words to
express. "This 10 theory" look
around this village and you will find
it in effect.
i $3.50 was derived last year from
saloon license, to pay this would have
involved and increased taxation of
not over .OO084 mills on the taxable
valuation of the village to make the
muniicent showing made by the
Herald. What a grand thing that
speaks for itself through families
dependent upon the county for sub.
sistence. A man intoxicated abuses
his family, with loaded gun threat
ems the lives of citizens and officers
to such an extent that thsy dare not
him, all on account of tho
saloon to pay off an old debt and ex-
pecting to pay Winter bonds amount
ing to 81, 900 with $500 or $500 in the
treasury. One man lost leg during
the past year through the. intoxica.
ton of others, and who of this village
knows what may befall them through
the same agent3 This mans Log is
not to be taken into account or that
he was lowering between life and
death, the license people would have
us believe, but it is directly traceable
to the saloon licensed by the people,
this cannot be gainsaid.
One day last week a most highly
respected citizen of this county who,
it is said, never became intoxicated
only when he came to Worthington,
was picked up in-ths strest after he
had attracted a crowd and felI down
unable to rise, by friend who desir-
ed to screen his condition % much us
possible. Numerous instances of
this character could be recited, and
all because of the desire to derive
revenue at the expense of others.
The blind pig argument is one of
the license peoples resorts. That
evil can be kept within the law as
near 40 the saloon of the day is. It
may be impossible to keep out every
drop Of liqnor, but the various evils
that grow out of a licensed saloon
will never come from any blind pig.
The one that is so often referred to
TO was closed up, and there is no
reason why they all can't be. The
argument is mere subterfuge for
some TO screen their actions behind.

What the n~ever-ceasing noise is,
What the bursting boundless boom is,
What the blunderbussian bang is,
What the flashing fiery fizz is,

What the swinging, sweeping sizz is,
What the silence-splitting sound is,
What the too terrific toot is,
What the boisterous, breezy blare is,
What the big-horn, brassy blast is,
What the much meandering march is,
What the fawless, flying flag is,

Spruces finer than a fiddle.

Booms the everlasting doodle,
Why the blooming wooden nutmeg
Whoops itself to something greater.

Knicks his books and books is knicker.
Why the mint of old Virginia
Coins a patriotic julep,
Why the Georgia watermelon
Bursts in red enthusiasm,
Why the tents that tickle Tampa
Swell with pride and footing troopers,
Why the old Kentucky bourbon
Turns its yeller into gladness,
Why the Texas cotton raiser
Raises other things than cotton,
Why from Maine to California,
On to Oregon and Klondike,
From the Philippines to Cuba,
Taking in the Sandwich islands
And some other territory,
There is boom, and bang and bolster,
There is fizz and fire and fervor,
There is Yankee Doodle-Dixie-
Uncle Sam will tell you briefly
That he's out to do some Fourthing,
Just a bit of Fourthing, mind you,
On his jolly July birthday;
That he's out to have a pleasant

Say, for instance. let him try it,
Let him try it, right this minute!

Prudent men take life insurance as an
investment under some Of the various
cumulative plans offered by the old line
companies. The leading f1nanciers are
the warmest advocates Of modern life
insurance. In view OF the fact that no
old line life insurance company has ever
failed, there can be no question of their
stability, and their millions Of reserve
are ample guarantee that they can fulfill
every contract they make, whether it
natures tomorrow, ten years or fifty
years hence. The endowment form with
Its pension for old age. or providing a
life annuity for dependents when the

forms, and one equally SO Is that upon

General Miles, the feather bed rowdy-
dow wearer Of gold-plated military har-
ness, who is SO brave in times of peace
and 30 prompt in drawing his salary and
shooting off his mouth, now says that we
are not ready for war. You bet we are
not and never will be il Miles say 80 is to
be needed. He is cringing, contempt
bic coward, and an artist when it comes
to shooting down unarmed rioters and
strikers, but when it comes to facing the
disciplined muzzle Of rifles held in the
hands Of foreign foe, Miles whines that
We are not ready. Miles is like whole
lot OF other generals that we had in 1850.
Great dress parade braves, but as soon
as war broke out we had to find our
Grants, Sheridans and Shermans in the
ranks Miles doesn't even belong in the
ranks, and il we should have war tomor-
row we would bet our life that he would
throw his uniform into pawn shop, get
what he could on the gold and mako a
sneak for Canada. That is General
Miles.-The Neto Road.
1t is with regret that we note the above
paragraph securing publicity through a
journal claiming to merit a reputation
for reason and fairness, upon which the
unwarranted attack on the integrity and
ability Of the active head of the United
States Army is sad travesty. General
Nelson A. Miles is of the common people
and rose from the ranks. Every stripe
and star, and every polished metallic
substance Of his gold plated military
harness." has been honorably won in
service, and in the face Of bitter oppo-
sition,-the aristocratic branch OF the
army,-was promoted to bis present rank
because he is practical and not theo-
retical military man. In that memorable
contest as to whether merit should be
rewarded or bigotry govern, to secure the
coveted position for West Pointer and
prevent the promotion Of Miles, no one
thought to urge against him such a
ridiculous charge as cowardice. In say
ing 1--WE are not ready for war;" General
Miles only repeats what he has said
frequently the past two years. We are
not ready for war, save in the sense that
Americans are always ready to defend
the flag. "Jingoism" should not be in
dulged by reform papers.
