Prohibition in Vermont.

1t is probable that Vermont will
abandon it's half-century experiment
with prohibition and adopt q system
Of local option. The legislative joint
committee on temperance has reported
q measure for this purpose. The only
alternative plan suggested was for
the adoption of the state dispensary
system. Not single member OF the
committee advocated a continuance of
state prohibition. 1t was assumed
that the system had proved too defec-
tive to be allowed to stand.
The difficulties in Vermont are the
same as those encountered in all
states that have tried to enforce q
prohibitory law. Bad liquor is kept
in majority of the drug stores,
'joints" have multiplied, and the
general effect of this wholesale eva
sion OF the law is believed to be de-
moralizing. It's Incentives to hypoc-
risy were emphasized in the recent
canvass. One serious feature of the
situation was found to be the tendency
to use hard cider and various cheap
alcoholic mixtures to produce drunk
enness. Farmers and quarrymen are
the Two classes on which the bad
effects of these substitutes for ordi-
nary liquors are said to be most
noticea BILE.
Vermont was pioneer prohibition
state. II adopted the system after the
great temperance revival of the '4Os,
and its laws were originally stringent.
AT one time it was penitentiary
offense for man to offer a glass of
vine to his neighbor. Should the
people vote for local option when the
measure is submitted, they would be
expressing belief born of experience

End of the World.

No doubt many people sincerely be-
lieve that earth's days are numbered
and they are prepared to meet total
humiliation at any hour.
In Melbourne, Australia, last week
occurred a storm of red dust accom-.
panied by balls of fire. These terrors
were sufficient to cause a panic and
the world IS end seemed near to the in
habitants.
Without expecting to combat super
stition which is a part Of the human
mind, there are many reasons for the
belief that the earth is destined to re-
volve on its axis and sustain the
human race for many centuries to-
come.
One of the first principles in nature
and her laws is that of the conserva-
ton of forces. Not an atom is lost.
While changes are constant, not the
smallest particle is lost to earth.
This being the case it follows that the
forces, treasures and secrets of nature
which yet lie hidden must be discov-
cred and used before the purpose of
their being is achieved.
Man has developed only small
portion of the earth's soil. It will
require centuries to exhaust maiden
soil to the depth of q foot. Then as.
that foot OF earth is exhausted, there
will be another ready and SO on down
for leagues in many areas.
Then think of the mountains of
metal and caves of ocean with their
brilliants. Think of the precious
stones extant and reflect that they are
as nothing compared with those yet to-
be found.
Think OF the ores to be dug and
made to serve IMAM if natures prOvi-
siOns are to be utilized. Think of
the undiscovered principles of life,
the scientific control of volcanoes,
wind storms, tiGal waves which man
must harness and utilize as power to
serve his future wants
Earth's end is remote indeed when
one sums up the little man knows
about his habitation and coniectures
the possibilities of knowledge

The city of Greensburg, to the
south of us, is suffering for coal and
recently telegraphed to the governor
stating that there was no coal in
town and that something must be
done. This is fore-runner of what
is liable to happen all through this
part OF the state before the winter is
over. The Santa Fee supplied the
dealers along the line with storage
coal in August and since then the
supply has been SO limited that the
storage coal is about exhausted.
The problem is serious one and de-
mands careful consideration both by
our dealers and the railroads.

Senator Harris is being favorably
mentioned by all parties in this state
as good man for the president to

that democrat will be appointed
and the only other name mentioned
is Governor Sayers of Texas.
