.Kinghshel Free Press: Many news
papers and public men. in expressing
their views OF federal prohibition in con-
nection with the admission Of Oklahoma,
take the ground as outlined by the
Washington Post. In discussing the
question. the Post says;
After q thorough study Of the mat
ter, congress WIN conclude, we hope,
that Oklahoma should be admitted into
the unioa on an equal footing with the
other states It would be unwlse, for
example, to insert in the enabling act
any provision attempting to bind the
new state to a fixed policy on the LIQUOR
question or any other matter coming
within the sovereignty OF state An at
tempt thus TO fetter the free viii OF a
state would be OF doubtful constitution
ality, and certainly an Infringement upon
the powers that are lodged IN a state
The people OF Oklahoma, II they are en-
titled to admission as a state are surely
competent to settle for themselves the
question whther or not prohibition is the
Coz. policy for their state They
should not ~ required to give a pledge
for ten years or for any other period
to follow course prescribed by congress
Advance legislation by congress on local
questions would be as pernieious in ac-
tual results as such legislation would
be after the state he'd been Invested with
full sovereignty"
Now a goodly percentage Of the people
Of Oklahoma believe that this doctrine
should apply with equal force to other
matters that have heretofore been left
TO the states. There is, for example, no
more Justice in fixing the location Of
he capital I'M the enabling act than
there would be In any other advance
legislation by congress on local ques-
tions" The location Of the capital should
be left to the state OF Oklahoma with
out any extraordinary condition what

The J. c. Aver Co. Will Print
Formulas of Medicines on Bottle

soon appear on each bottle Of Ayers
Sarsaparilla will show that the person
gets about ten minims of alcohol in
each teaspoonful Of the medicine, which
is the ordinary dose. Now in . glass Of
beer (which is the ordinary dose) there
are about two hundred minimS of alco.
hol. In other words, one dose Of beer
contains twenty times As much alcohol
as one dose Of Ayers SarsaparilIa. But
let US carry this analysis q little further:
You would have to drink about half .
bottle of Ayers Sarsaparilla to get as
much alcohol as is found in an ordinary
schooner OF beer. The Sarsaparilla
would cost the NAV nearly half a dollar,
while the beer would cost him only five
cents. We have yet to hear of any per-
son who ever acquired love for the
taste OF Ayers Sarsaparilla. The fact
is, it is medicine, . positive medicine.
and has the taste Of q medicine. But
We are told that taste for beer is
soon acquired. In view of this, can you
imagine anything more perfectly ridicu.
lous than all of this terrible cry about
the alcohol in this medicine? And then
we know very well that the alcohol
is used, must be used, to extract the
various medicinal ingredients from the
roots, barks, ETC., which form ar impor.
tant part of this medicine 1t is not

effect it may havesof ITSELF"
