Prohibition News Bulletin.

The National Retail Liquor Deal
ers' Association has issued q call to
all liquor associations to "cough up''
per capita for every member of the
association. It points out that it has
secured legislation reducing internal
revenue very considerably and that
from now on it intends to carry on an
incessant literature campaign to de-
feat local option and other fanatical
ideas.
Both sides, the Minneapolis liquor
organ is having quite "spell" for
fear saloon keepers will not get the
opportunity of paying license. More
liquor is sold, according to this Or
gan, where there are no saloons than
where the saloons exist. Yet so earn
est is the campaign of the liquor in
| terests to curtail the business and to
load it with taxes, that it groans at
the prospect of license being voted out
of the towns and villages of the state.
A foreigner, with an unpronounc-
able name, was thrown of the rail-
road track, while drunk, and killed,
at Fairmont, MINI. The widow has
brought suit against the saloon keeper
for S., ZOO. Several cases of like
nature in other states have been re-
Gently decided in favor of the bereft
family.
The emigration bill, which passed
congress at the last hour, prohibits
the sale of alcoholic liquor in any
form in the national capitol. The bill
will undoubtedly receive the signature
of the president, and become a law.
This clearly indicates the trend of
public sentiment toward the liquor
business. The New York Sun, COM
mending upon the measure says, ''The
representatives of the liquor industry,
who were in Washington looking af-
ter the different bills, effecting it, are
pessimistic. They do not like the out
look"

Geo. Gould paid 81, 500 for a special
train from Jacksonville to New York
in order that lady friend should ar
rive in time for dinner engagement.
Why shouldn't he? 1t is we'll peEh q ps
that he spends his money. But such
incidents serve to emphasize the con-
trast between the very rich and the
very poor, and the mutterings of the
tempest is plainly to be heard by those
who will listen.

has insisted on certain legislation
against the octopuses, and it is but

Discussing the probability of q
tight money market, the Wall Street
Daily Journal says: -.
"But the senate has been called in.
to extra session to ratify the Panama
canal treaty, which will call for pay
ment of $40, ,000, 600 to the canal com
pany and SIC, O,O00, 900 to Colombia.
How these payments can be made
without drawing on the government
deposits in the banks is q problem. I" :
Why does anyone deposit money in
a bank? Is it for safe-keeping until
wanted, or is it TO- accommodate the
bank? The country needs government
banking badly. z*s VI
