The easiest way to evade ones manifest duty
toward the liquor traffic is to stroke the beard and
in deep tone, supposed to be characteristic of
profound wisdom, to say, tits great problem.
Of course, long the matter is problem,
nothing can be done about it, or, at least can
excuse himself with some appearance of sincerity,
for not doing anything about it. We believe with
Woolley that "there is liquor problem; it's either
fight or flight" We do not doubt that many are
uncertain as what is the best method of destroy
ing the saloon but their uncertainty is usually due
to their Indifference. When the natural enemies of
the saloon get aroused for it's overthrow they
will find the way to accomplish it.

President Mckinley would be glad to see prohi-
btion of the canteen." Why does it then remain?
Under act of congress, passed in 1875, President
Hayes, in 1884, issued order banishing intoxicat
ing liquors from the army. Under that same act
President Mckinley could have done the same by a
stroke of his pen. The anti-canteen law passed at
the session of congress instructed the secretary
of war to that the law enforced; instead of
that the law has been nullifed by the secretary of
war who takes cover under an opinion rendered by,
or rather, as Bishop Fitzgerald writes US, "sgned
by" the attorney general.
