lted 1T in her army camps. We earnestly
hope that wise counsels will prevail in free,

What Can a Prohibition Member of the
Legislature Do?'' The paper showed how
one member, bound by no party caucus and
anxious only to serve the best interests of

spected by his political foes. The points of
the paper were illustrated with inimitably

ment lies the county official. Prohibition
judge and sheriff can control the makeup of
the jury. With Prohibition upon the stat
ute book, give county Prohibition
county attorney and sheriff, and within 80
days after election the liquor traffic will
have practically closed. A county Prohi-
bition auditor could reduce the expenses of
county management and refuse to release
convicted saloonkeepers before the end of
their term in order to save the county
few dollars. The treasurer could see that
all fines were properly collected The com
missioners could employ men to detect vio
lations of law, and prosecute therefor. The
CleIh VI COURTS cOulQ see that indictments
did not conveniently disappear and that de
faulted bonds and recognizances were forth
coming when wanted.
The evening OF the second day of the
conference was given to the oratorical con-
test of the intercollegiate Prohibition AS
sociation. Twelve states were each repre-
sented by college man who had previously
taken first place in his state contest All
the orations treated some phase of the Pro
hibition question The audience manifest
ed much enthusiasm. Chas. M. Hay, Cen

Davis, Ohio Wesleyan University, second,
and L. O. Leyman, Eureka College, Illi-

ference the National W. C. T. u. held

The Republican party of Iowa has
nominated for governor A. B. Cum
Minis, one of the most inveterate foes
of Prohibition in that state. There is
widespread dissatisfaction among tenn
perance Republicans, and if this class
OF voters were not so easily led by the
nose for the party's sake, the outrage
of Cummins' nomination would have
produced an immediate revolt of large
proportions. There is yet likely to be
an Independent movement, while of
course the regular Prohibition ticket
will receive largely increased vote.
It should receive the undivided sup
port of the anti-saloon forces.

The Free Baptist Yearly Meeting OF

that "Inasmuch as the canteen has had
years of trial in which to show it's
worth, we demand at least two years

strate it's worth. We denounce the eff

the arrests for drunkenness have fallen
off more than sixty per cent as COM
