So everything sends some kind of
an odor. What is ours2 Ia it
sweet, or is it unpleasant in the
sight of other nations9 Our light
shows our attraction. If We send
forth light OF love to good and
honest government, we will at.
tract those who love such but if
it is to the contrary-drinking,
fighting and all manner of dissi.
pation-then we will attract that
class; the lawless and disobedient
will say "the United States is the
place for me; they drink and
fight and kill one another" The
majority of our people must favor
that way Of living, or they would
elect such men to office as would
enact laws to prohibit such con.
dnct. The civil. honest and law
abiding people will say, 81 don't
want to 60 to the United States
for there is too much drunken
ness, fighting, shooting, cutting &,
whipping and fussing at all times
of the night to disturb and to
frighten the women and little
children. This is the light of
the anti .prohibitionist.
A red light means danger. We

any slop, and they love to lie
around the stilled slop till they
get their stomach filled and then
they want to go to the lowest

more stilled slop, and then back
to their mud hole they again go
to lie and wallow until something
disturbs them. Through the

a drunken party or mob, or the
cries of some poor woman and
children, caused by some drunken
party. l think it is time for the
honest people to awake to their

Obstrcperous Drummer.

Last Saturday drummer stepped
into the ladies' waiting room at A. V.
R'y station and bought ticket for Du-
Bois, and in giving 20 cents in change
Mr.. Farrell had to give the drummer
10 pennies, which the fellow refused to
take and became very obstreperous
about it, Finally the agent called Po-
.liceman McKernan and he asked the
drummer TO step out of the ladies'
room, which he refused to do and re-
sisted the officer. The policeman
arrested him and took him before Bur-
CESS McEntire, who fined the drummer
$500 aud costs, which was $500, max
ing a total of $500 the fellow had to
pay, besides missing the train he want
cd to go on. The drummer had this
trouble and expense because he refused
to accept ten pennies In change.
