Local Option.
One on the Other Side.
Editor Northerner:

Editor Northerner:
was pleased when you opened the
columns of the Northerner to the local
option discussion; at the candid state
ment OF facts you made with reference
to the voters who would exercise the
right OF franchise on the question:; that
there should be no i'll feeling displayed
and each person should vote according
to his Judgment and the dictates of his
conscience without adverse criticism.
But the fact is that while the voters
who do not believe in the drug store
method of dispensing intoxicants have
said nothing. the other side has rushed
into print and in yelled language, insin-
uated that no honest, upright citizen
would vote against local option.
Now the fact is, this is not party q ues-
ton. Political, religious and practical
temperance men disagree on this ques-
ton, as was proven at the last vote when
some church members voted against it
and some of the greatest users of liquor
voted for it.
lntoxicants have been manufactured
been sold ever since it has been made. 1t
matters not whether the place where it
is sold is called saloon, a dispensary,
buffet or a drug store. The question
is which is the best method of handling
it for the most people?
The fact that beer has been ordered in
car lots lin at least two towns in the
county, and whisky in five-barre lots
under local option, indicates that the
traffic has increased under the drug
store method.
The fact that young men not out OF
school are seen on the street intoxicated
is evidence that the drug store method
is not good system to bring up boys
under, and / wish to state here that |
am not like the old maid that wrote an
essay on how to bring up children, OF
like the writers of some of the articles
which have appeared in your columns
/ have boys, and have heretofore voted
for local option.
In closing have this to say, go to the
polls and vote your convictions. 1t
matters not whether you are Metho.
dist or an Episcopal, a democrat or re-
publican, a farmer or a business man
Don't quarrel with your neighbor, fol
talk is cheap and he has as good a right to
his opinion as you have to yours, bearing
in mind that local option is not necessar
lily practical temperance.

Life Guards.

The Life Guards are two regiments of
cavalry forming part of the British house
hold troops. They are gallant soldiers,
and every loyal British heart is proud Of
them. Not only the Kings household,
but yours, ours, everybody's should have
its life guards. The need of them is
especially great when the greatest foes
of life, diseases, find allies in the very
elements, as colds, influenza, catarrh,
the grip and pneumonia do in the stormy
month of March. The best way that we
know of to guard against these diseases
is to strengthen the system with Hood s
Sarsaparilla-the greatest OF all life
guards. 1t removes the conditions in
which these diseases make their most
successful attack, gives vigor and tone
to all the vital organs and functions, and
imparts genial warmth to the blood.
Remember the weaker the system, the
greater the exposure to disease. Hoods
Sarsaparilla makes the system strong.

Danger Of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia. II
reasonable care is used, however, and
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all
danger will be avoided. Among the tens
of thousands who have used this remedy
for these diseases we have yet to learn of
a single case having resulted in pneu-
monia, which shows conclusively that it
is certain preventive of that dangerous
disease. 1t will cure cold or an attack

treatment. 1t is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by Longwell Bros. m

Local OPTIoNIsT

To the Citizens of Paw Paw:
Last fall | did some coportage work
in this town for about seven weeks, and
called on nearly every family, and am
glad to say | did not find what you may
call drunkard's home. But there are
men in this town who are slaves to drink
They are completely under the control
of this demon. There are some of these
who want to break away from the habit.
Let US do our part to help these men
regain their manhood by keeping out the
saloon. Let the saloon once get foot
hold in your beautiful town and it won t
be long before you will have drunkard' s
home in all that it means; not one, but a
number of them, and following in its
path all the misery and sorrow that
come to one who is under the control of
this demon.
In all my experience of 10 years in col
portage and missionary work in New
Jersey, New York, Vermont, Massachu-
sets, Chicago, Iowa and Michigan, |
have never found a town of it's size so
free from the control of the saloon as
your beautiful town of Paw Paw.
Let everyone who is lover of the
home, and who wants to see his fellow
man lifted up to nobler, better and
purer life, vote to keep the saloons out
of Van Buren, county.
Sincerely yours for the betterment OF
my fellowman,
