The Vice-Presidency.

A boom has been Launched" in WASH
ington to make Speaker Cannon the Re
publican nominee for vice.President. But
the question is whether he wants TO
give up "a position OF much power, for
one that is Of no great Importance And
set there is always a. chance of a Vice
President succeeding to the presidential
chair,
For his part Mr., Cannon says he IS
satisfied with his present Sob. and does
not want to give It up. Well he need not
accept unless he wishes, and It will not do
for him to assume that the place VIII be
offered him. However, he is no tyro IN
politics. There are few shrewder Con-
gressinen than he Is, and just now he ,s
receiving praise for the disposition he
manifests to deal with the Democrats
fairly in the matter Of committee assign
ments
Governor. elect Herricls, Of Ohio, is also
mentioned" In connection with the Repub-
lican ice-presidential nomination, and
IL he wants it we guess Mr.. Hanna could
"landr 1t for him. Yet, the Republicans
have no specially strong reasons for de-
string to go to Ohio for nominee From
their point Of view there are other States
more doubtful than Ohio. However, it lt
none Of our business to assist them sr
slate making.
Mr.. Cannon was horn at Guilford. n, G.
May z, 1886; but has been away from tins
old North State Ions, long time.

Difficulties Of Prohibition.

lin discussing the prohibition law OF
yoanvule, Rev. Or. ~ cleveland Hall said
that the prohibition OF local legal sale
Of intoxican,s does not prohibit the pur-
tIchase from foreign sources. In other
+ words said he your law does not pro-
hbibit the purchase OF intoAicants,
or course, 1t does not, and that Is
|, wherein prohibition is defective. 1t has
lbeen time and again decided by the
\ Courts that the liquor traffic Is o ut sub
ject for regulation by law; that no man
Il has the Inherent right 10 sell ntoNicants'
:. and. therefore. may be PROHIBITED by law
from doing So But 1t has never been
4 decided by the courts, and 1t never VIII
4 be SO decided that no man has the right
Ell to purchase and drink Intoxicating IL
a, auors. That is u matter Of personal priv
II i]ere and under our form of government
The law Cannot interfere.
The reason Of this is simple, It Is
not q, crime 10 buy or drink Intoxicating
liquors. and 1t cannot be made SO By law.
.Tha practice may be sinful, but It Is
j not criminal. IT may be called criminal
* but 1t ~ not crlIn'nol as t!c ID" 'te's'
4 uizes crime 10 be.
II Irohipt!onists have contcnded that be-
s cause prohibition laws are not rlsidly
enforced, because they are ylo!ated here
and there, Is no more argument against
proh,pltion than it would be to argue tina,
tho laws againGt theft should be abolish
ed because they arc not always enforced
and because men steal in spite OF them
But The difference is, as we have al
ready pointed out. that theft is u crime
while drinking LIQUOR is not, In tile eyes
Of The Law, The law makes It crime
not only ~ steal, But 10 receive stolel

Football PLAYING a Crime.

The first real hard knock made
against the playing of football comes
from South Dakota. The Legislators of
that state are firm believers that par
ticipants i'm the gridiron game are moth
ing better than criminals, and that is
what any man will be If he insists on
violating the anti-football law which
has just been passed.
BY football enthusiasts the bill might
be called a freak. According to its
terms no one must even think of play
ing the game. If he does he will have
to provide a big bond that he will not
do as his mind directs. Another pro-
vision of the measure says that man
who plays the game win be subject TO
a fine of $1,000 and FIVE years impris-
onment.
The bill, before it becomes a law,
will be referred to the Committee on
Health. 1t is said that several prize
fighters help to compose that body
They threaten to approve OF the meas
ure il the fighting game is not dealt
with more literally throughout the
country.

Has Valuable Old CLOCK.

Special to the Evening Journal.
Dover, Jan. 2s.-John Bishop, of
Cheswold, brought a very old and val
ued clock to Dover for repairs. The
clock was made in South America,and is
over 200 years old. The ancient time
piece runs for eight days. It is about
eighteen inches square. A large bell
is on the top of the clock and when
striking sounds like a heavy gong. The
clock keeps excellent time, despite its
old age. II has been in the Bishop
family ever since it was made.
