CANADA HAD TO GIVE
PROHIBITION UP AT LAST
Even the Mounted Police Could Not
Enforce the Law

LOS ANGELES, Cal, May 20
editor Herald: Prohibition was tried
in the Canadian Northwest territorJ,
and although one thousand Northwest
mounted police endeavored to the best
of their ability to enforce the law,
it proved a dismal failure. This efficient
police force Gas fine a force for sup
where in the world) could hold the
Indians in check. preserve law and
order throughout the territory with the
single exception of the prohibition part
of the program; that they could not
successfully enforce.
Now, law means law in Canada, and
when any certain law cannot be prop
erly enforced, the authorities investi-
gate the matter and find out where the
trouble lies, and then provide REM
edy. They did so regarding prohibit
ton, with the result that the law was
repealed and license law substituted.
Inspectors were appointed, whose duty
it was to prosecute all saloon keepers
who sold liquors of an inferior quality;
that is, below set standard. When a
saloon keeper was convicted for such
an offense, notice, setting forth the
facts, was posted upon the door of
that saloon and the proprietor of the
place was compelled, under penalty of a
heavy fine, to keep the notice so posted
for a period of three months. For the
second offense he lost his license. That
law proved success.
Under the prohibition law, above re-
ferred to, the Northwest mounted po-
lice could search all baggage on rail-
way trains and if any intoxicating
liquor was found therein they could
remove the baggage to their bar
racks, and il the owner was innocent
enough to claim it he could be fined
5000 for having the liquor in his pos
session, unless he held permit" from

PROPOSITION TO LIGHT
FOUR DOWNTOWN STREETS
Submitted to City Council by Mer'
camille and Municipal Lighting
Company Yesterday

The Mercantile and Municipal Light

council yesterday, through their attor-
ney, Tom C. Thompson, to light Main,

ornamental lights.
The claim to have discovered some
distillate, which they have named

to gas for lighting purposes. They
offer to erect the poles on these streets
at a distance of $50 feet apart, with
one on each corner of street intersec-
tions and maintain the system for $12
per month per pole.
They offer to guarantee that the
light given by these poles will be suf-
ficent to make it possible to read a
newspaper at any point in the street.
The fluid, or whatever it is, is kept
in the pole under pressure, and, it is
declared, is absolutely safe. They de-
sire the contract for lighting the
streets named, with the possible ex-

tories.
The police could enter private rest
dence or building Of any kind, at any
hour of the day or night and search for
whisky "on suspicion" without the
formality of search warrant.
The preachers over there fought hari
to prevent the law from being repealed,
which, to my mind, goes to prove that
thev would never rest content until
they had some similar law in force here
provided the present ordinance carried.
They promise to establish coffee clubs
throughout the city II their pet scheme
only carries, but who wants their cof-
fee clubs? Coffee is also a stimulant,
and is more injurious than beer; be

WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

There comes time in the on
ward march of civilization when
nations and races will celebrate
their natal day of their heroes,
when learned men will eulogize
and tell of their great deeds per-
formed. Therefore within the
next thirty days we will attempt
to give brief history aud work
of the four greatest American
statesmen that our country has
yet produced.
Last Sunday January %, sixty
five years ago, was born in Niles,
Ohio on his fathers farm, Will
liam Mckinley, Jr., who was
loved honored and respected by
more people perhaps than any
other president at the time of his
assassination in Buffalo, N. Y,
on that memorable day. Hum
bolt said "The finest fruit earth
holds up TO its maker is finish
ed man." such was the character
of Mckinley. He was pure, hon
est, true, noble aud a christian
man; always seeking those higher
ideals of life. AS a lawyer be
was honest, as congressman he
was true to his constituents, as a
governor he was pure and free
from all temptations, as presi-
dent he was an ideal christian
ruler, faithful to every public
trust and thoughtful to home
duties. The good deeds he left
will live and be cherished by
succeeding generation; for good
deeds are based on truth and
Justice. Thus we see this great
statesman and true type of man
hood, born in poverty and reared
in the school of experience, until
he became the leader of men,
races and nations, and as his life
went out in the zenith of his
splendor he died a christian with
love for all and malace toward
none. His last words were "good
by all, good by, it is Gods way,
His will be done not ours"
