If You ARE
Do Nor FORGET
Three All Important Points

First.-Go via ST. Paul because
the lines to that point will afford
the very best service.
Second.-See that the coupon be-
yond St. Paul reads via the Wis
consin Central, because that line
makes close connections with all the
trans continental lines entering the
Union Depot there, and its service
is first class in. every particular.
Third.-For information, call on
your neighbor and friend-the
nearest ticket agent-and ask for

OF lvi lg for five years in prohibition ~
Kansas.
| am an Ohioan; was born and raised in
the Buckeye state. Ia that state they
have "local option law" BY this law
the people OF any township or county in
the state may vote saloons out OF the
community.
1t 10 true this law has cllsed many
saloons in Ohio, but it has NOT prohibit
ed those who wanted drink. OF intoxi-
eating liquor from securing it.
lived ip town OF 400 people, where
the local option law was in full force
that is, the citizens had voted ths sa-
looms out.
resided there for two years and a
half and for one year the local option
law was in force, and apparently there
we're 70 saloons in the town, but during
the year, when local option was in force,
| saw more drunken men on the streets,
three to one, than in the remaining year
and half when five saloons were in full
force, with doors wide open both front
and rear.
You ask, why was this so9 I answer,
because those men who wanted liquor as
a beverage, would purchase it in guam
they drank it until it was gone and then
would have the bottle replenished. In
this way they ecured more liquor than
they would ordinarily il they were open
saloons in the community.
1t is worse than useless for prohibit
tionsts to try and stop the sale Of intoxi-
eating liquor. For this reason l think
it is ar better to place such a high lic-
cense upon the sale OF it that few men
can afford to engage in the traffic.
Looking at this subject from every
nook and corner it is my firm belief that
80 long as this government permits the
manufacture Of liquor, to be sold as
beverage just So long the only way for
the people OF community to do, is to
make those who wish to engage in the
traffic, to pay high license. In this
way no community will be cursed with
host of low dives, for high license will
bar out such places.
Just suppose that the saloons Of Grand
junction were voted out on the coming
election day. Do the pfohibitionists of
this city think for one second that those
men, who are in the habit OF taking
their daily drinks OF liquor, would go
without it? Do believeyou that simply be
cause tho saloons we're closed that they
woudstop their drinking?If they do, they
are indeed ignorant and know not hui
man nature, as does the world outside

When Uncle Sam sets his foot
firmly down and says, no more
liquor, as a beverage, shall be mans
ufactured in America, then, and
only then, will the sale of intoxicat-

stop the sale Of it. Men who crave
liquor will satisfy that craving, if
they have to wade through fire.

Columbia, December 10. -Special:
Perhaps the most serious fire Colum-
bia has had since Sherman burned it
occurred here to night. At this
writing the steam engines are still at
work, but all danger is at an end, al
though at one time it looked dan
gerously like a great conhagration,
and as if the entire block on the west
side of Main street, between Lady
and Washington street, running back
to Assembly street, would be de
stroyed. For while the heat was
80 intense that it looked rs if tho
fire would extend over to the east
side Of Main street. The fire WAS
burning on Main street simultaneous
with Assembly street, and between
these streets stables and out houses
were q mass Of flames ~Columbias s
fire department includes only three
steam engines and of these one was
away, being repaired, so there we're
only two engines to handle the fire.
They could at best only work to
check the fro and contine it to the
burning buildings, which was ad-
mlrably done, considering the facili-
ties and tho delay in sending in
alarm. The stores On Market street
had to burn, as no engine could be
spared from the Main street side.
After while the State Hospital for
the Insane consented to send down
It's old band engine ard it was put to
work oD Assembly street.
Mayor Earle tolegraphed to Char
lesion and Augusta for two engines
each, and to Newberry, but before
the special trains from these places
started with the engines he wired
thanks and countermanded the re-
quest.
1t was quick fire to start, but
slow to get under control because of
the area covered. A long wooden
stable in the heart of the fire district
spread the fire from Main street to
Assembly street. AT 7.45 right
light was noticed on Van Metres
furniture store. 1t grew before any
cry of fire was made. Although
where every one could see it no one
gave the alarm. Finally few cries
were given. The alarm struck and
as if by magic the crowds concen.
trated. At first the fire seemed 40 if
it could be managed. First the
Workshop burned. then the. kitchen
