THE COMMONER,
Mr., Bryan's PaDer


The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100, OOO copies, a record
probably never equaled in history of
American periodical literature. The un-
paralleled growth of this paper demon
strates that there is room in the news
paper field for national paper devoted
to the discussion OF political, economic
and social problems. To the columns
of The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan contrib
utes his best efforts; and his review of
political events as they arise from time
to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner'sr regular subscription
price is $1.00 per year. We have ar
ranged with Mr.. Bryan whereby we
can furnish his paper and the weekly
Democrat together for one year for
s1.5O. Theregular subscription price OF
the two papers when subscribed for
separately is 5000.

STEWART WINS THE RACE.

Oliver w. Stewart, Chairman OF the
National Prohibition Committee, Will
represent the Hyde Park district OF
rum-soaked Chicago in the Legislature
which assemblies Jan. Z. He was
elected as a party Prohibitionist, hav-
ing no endorsement by any other par
ty. His election has sent cheer
down the line. His legislative record
will be as remarkable as his campaign
and as the lamented Pearson showed
what sheriff, backed by Prohibi-
ton party could do, our gallant Stew
art will show the Christian men OF
the nation how the Prohibition party
would do the trick in legislative bod
les if it had chance. Located at the
news center of the nation, his doings
heralded by the Associated Press, the
great Chicago dailies and the New
Voice, the best Prohibition paper in
the land except Backbone,() Chair
man Stewards election bids fair to be
an experimenting event in the history
of the Prohibition party.

EDITORIAL.

"Oh, that prohibition would GOMEZ"
is good. Come, let us bring prohibi-
toni" is better.
What are our young readers doing
for prohibition? We would be de-
lighted to hear from them, either for
publication or otherwise.
Hale Johnson can never again make
a speech or cast a ballot against the
saloon. Do you think he now regrets
having done both in the closing hours
of his noble life? So
It will take yet more time and
money and labor and sacrifice and pa
tient continuance in well doing. Are
you ready for all this? Will you
stand, and having done all, stand?"
The men of the nation should
abolish the saloon or give the women
Of the land the ballot with which to
protect their homes and children from
the tide of death rolling in upon them
from the man-legalized saloon.
Never forget that 999.999 Prohibi-
ton votes would no more be counted a
million than would one vote. Your
vote is needed to make up that first
million which will bring the other mil
lions, and it will count for much more
at this end Of the million than at the
other.
The members of the Prohibition
party may always be depended upon
to cast their vote against the local
saloon. If we could as safely rely
upon the friends of decency who have
heretofore trained with the other par
ties to vote with the Prohibition par
ty against the state and national sa-
loon, the conflict would soon be over.
Absolutely every community ought
to have Demorest or W. G. T. u.
contest In oratory. One will make a
demand for others. Let some earnest
worker, man or woman, young or old,
in each place send for instructions.

but voted for a new lease of life to
the saloon. Have you done what you
can to open his eyes to the issue? Is
he reading one of our papers? II not,
oughtn't you-really, now-oughtn't
you to get him to subscribe? And
don't you think you ought to see him
right away, so that he will be think
ing about our movement through all
this long winter?
Thank God! And now on! Not a
minute spent in grieving over what
might have been or ought to have
been. Never mind what the election
returns show. If they show gains,
cheer. If losses, grid for sharper con-
flict. If those to whom we have a
right to look for leadership in po-
litico-moral struggle lead, rally to
their support. If not, work away pa
tiently, wisely and all the time. These
are the spirit and tactics which have
won every successful fight. They will
win in this one.

knocks the poor man down with it.
North Dakota Capital: Deny it as they
will, the fact is indisputable that prohibi-
ton is prohibiting in the state as never
before, and sentiment is growing in favor
Of the complete suppression Of the traffic
Western Presbyterian: Such thing as
the nations Of Europe interesting them
selves in the moral condition OF the abor-
been unthought Of one hundred years ago.
The religion Of Jesus Christ is bringing
all nations to recognize the brotherhood
Of the human race and the obligations
arising from that relationship.
Religious Telescope: The fact that the
liquor men Of the nation are forming
themselves into an association to fight
prohibition In the open field, is a splendid
indication of the progress the cause OF
true temperance is making. We are only
too anxious to meet the allies Of ApOlly-
on in q fair, hand-to-hand engagement.
The prohibition forces were never SO act
i've and aggressive as at present, nor did
the rummies ever fear them SO much al
they do now.
Pennington (Iowa) Herald: The issues
growing out Of the civil war, upon which
the two great parties have SO long been
divided, are settling themselves and the
line of demarkation' between the old par
ties Is growing DINNER, while the liquor
question is becoming more and more an
important factor, and it Is only question
of time when in some way the sheep and
the goats will be divided upon that stu
pendous subject.

PRACTICAL PROHIBITION WORK.

Do you know of any enemies Of the
saloon, or people who could probably be
enlisted in the fight against it, who are
not reading a Prohibition paper? About
the least you could do toward interesting
them is to send us their names SO that
we could occasionally send them sample
copy. It would be vastly better If you
would secure and forward their subscrip-
tions. We say would-not could-because
you probably could If you would. Still
another excellent way of reaching and in
fluencing them Is to send us dollar or
two or three or fve or q promise to do
SO within year, and accompany it with
FIVE, twelve, twenty or thirty five names
and addresses Of people, anywhere In the
Union. to whom you want the paper sent
free for year. This has won and awak-
ened not a few. Many such renew their
own subscriptions after the first year and
some begin ordering Backbone sent to
still others. Why not start such circle
Of influence" today by sending US a re-
mittance or pledge? On receipt Of either
we send you blank for addresses, un-
less you send them with your remittance

We believe you. Good bye! Re-

Resolved, That we view with deep
concern the perversion of public SEN
timent due to the attitude taken by
various religious bodies in regard to
the proper and legitimate manufacture

prevents many Of those engaged in
our business from taking that interest
in religious work which they would
otherwise be glad to do, and we are

to justify such opposition on the part

Yes, we won.

The saloon won, but we won also.
The other parties won because they

The saloon won because the other
parties won and are in a position to

one Of those policies is the perpetual

ces.
We won
