MRS. NATIONS ATTACK
ON KANSAS SALOONS.

Did somebody say Kansas was n pro
that in Topeka alone there are owe
a hundred joints where liquor is sold
publicly or privately. Opinion is di
vided as to the work of Mrs. Carrie Ma
ton, about whose exploits accounts
have from time to time appeared in
The Herald. Carrie has been smash
ing things. She is a very large woman
with a temper, and when to the temper
and the extraordinary size are added a
Ratchet and a fanatical purpose, this
woman becomes formidable champion
of what she thinks is the right.
In case like this, any remark as
to the right or wrong of her policy
must be prefaced by the observation
that the saloon keepers in the state of
Kansas are carrying on their business
in open defiance of the laws. There is
a nice legal question involved here.
Some lawyers are of the ot:,nion that
the Joint keepers, by engaging In an
illegal traffic, are without redress in
the courts for any loss they may suf-
fer by reason of Mrs. Nations attacks.
Others contend that, since the officers
of the law permit the saloon keepers to
continue business, and collect from
them at regular intervals a fine that
is of the nature of a license fee, these
men are in fact under the protection
of the government; and at any rate,
that the law never contemplates plac-
ing the power of enforcement in the
hands of any private individual, acting
without the forms of law.
1t is to be presumed that in case of
a fragrant violation of law, law abid-
ing citizens have recourse, through
grand juries and peace officers and
courts. to the constituted authorities.
The confusion may be readily mag
ined, if the law recognized the right
of any individual to administer the
law in his own sweet way, accord
ing to caprice of prejudice. 1t
would be reversion to the
practice of ages long past. Our civil
lization is supposed to be higher than
that in which each man was his own
law and his own executive officer.
AS to the illegality of Mrs. Nations
action, there does not seem to The Her.
aid to be any doubt No court would
care to create a precedent in such a
case, and while she might be let off
lightly, or her case dismissed. if
brought to trial, it would be done
without prejudice to the right OF any
individual to the protection of his
property from the riotous acts of other
individuals. The case is not even ana

A wOMAN'S AWFUL PERIL.

There Is only one chance to save
your life and that is through an opera
tion," were the startling words heard
by Mrs. I. B. Hunt, of Lime Ridge, Wis.
from her doctor after he had vainly
tried to cure her Of a frightful case of
stomach trouble and yellow jaundice.
Gall stones had formed and she con-
stantly grew worse. Then she began
to use Electric Bitters which wholly
cured her. It's a wonderful Stomach,

Joyous to that of the moonshiner,
whose still is destroyed by revenue Off
GERS That pesky little matter OF the
monthly fine" or license fee, with
which we in Ell Paso are SO familiar.
comes in to complicate the question.
The administrators of the law have in
fact created a new law, and unless
there is public opinion enough behind
the law to make it binding. it is sell
dom that a court or jury or sheriff or
mayor can be found to enforce it.
This matter of the public opinion be-
hind the law brings up the question of
the policy of Mrs. Nations methods.
Such people are often necessary IN or
der to rouse the public conscience. In
this particular case, the violence Of her
attack has, it is said. really reacted in
favor of the saloons, who are made to
appear as martyrs whom the authori-
ties, having heretofore consistently
protected, have forsaken.
The whole incident only goes to
prove that law is powerless to reform
men. Law is powerless unless there is
a vigorous public opinion behind it.
The backing need not necessarily in
clude the majority of the people. Some
of the most righteous and necessary
laws, tax laws, for instance, are en-
forced. if enforced at all, against the
majority of the people. Our American
constitution, our government. was as
matter of fact organized by a MINOR
ity. But there must be either strength
or numbers, or both, behind repres-
sive law in order to make it effective.
If the prohibitionists of Kansas want
the law enforced, the thing to do is
to make and unmake juries, judges,
sheriffs, and mayors. If they have not
the power or the organization to do
this, they cannot get the law enforced.
To break up mirrors and plate glass
windows in saloons, with hatclicts, is
spectacular, and tends to draw the at
tention of the apathetic to the extent
of the evil and the necessity of re-
FORM But further than this it is an
evil, a violation of law, and a blow at
that very law and order that the per-
petrator affects to love so passionately.
She should not invoke the name of the
law while she is herself acting law
lessIy And whatever may be said in
of her acts up to this
time, the thing has gone quite far
enough and the w. c. T. U. can get
material for all the test cases they
want, without making any more of the
grand stand plays that are now becom-
ing only tiresome, ridiculous, and dan
gerous.

mayor-elect proposed an amendment to
the effect that while they did not want

way from the praise of the high vir-

taking part in any demonstration of
