MADISON All friends Of temper
w. G.. +. u. ance rejoice that s ma
jority OF the voters OF our city have de-
cided that the licensed saloon shall no
longer exist in Madison. Those who
wish either to cell intoxicants or to rent
buildings to s~aloonkeepere, or desire
some favor or patronage from the VEN
ders Of liquors, are the only ones that
are not heartily glad that no-Iiceose
gained the victory Of the late election;
but oven these, il law.abid,ug and pat
riotic citizens, will now abide by the de-
cision Of the majority, accepting the new
order, even though it be adverse to their
E, " wishes and interests. Any other
course is contrary to the principles of 9
republican form OF government, and the
principles OF our much-lauded American
republic would soon degenerate into
anarchy it any class should feel at liber-
ty to resist law SO Don as it came in con-
tiiot with Il e interests Of that class.

No sooner was the result OF the cleo
ton known than we heard rumors of the
. "blind pigs that would soon infest our
back streets and alleys, and cries OF
"more liquor is sold under prohibition
than under license" Blind pigs are bad
enough and of course ought not to be
permitted, and w believe they have to
be very blind indeed to escape the vigil
lance Of our oity officials, but no blind
pig a be the menace to the safety Of
the young who have not yet learned to
drink that a licensed saloon on q prom,-
nent street always is. As to the state.
ment that more liquor lie sold without
than with license, liquor men know bet
ter. They do not make mistakes on
questions pertaining to their own inter-
ests and are often wiser in their genera
ton than are the children OF light.

More ladies voted at the late election
than ever before IN this city, and the
entire ninety-five votes cast by women
were from those wards in which were two
candidates for members Of the school
board which shows that women are
ready to vote when it makes any differ
ence whether they vote or not, and had
the two candidates stood for az oppos-
ing policy in regard to the schools the
vote would no doubt have been greatly
increased. Suppose one had favored
and the other oppo ed introducing u kim
%dergarten or u manual training depar.-
ment, or cutting down the high school,
probably every woman IN the city would
have wished to vote.
