ROCKVILLE AND VICINITY
Anti-Saloon League Executive Com

Special Correspondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star
ROCKVILLE, Md, October % 1905.
The executive committee of the Mont
gomery County Anti-Salon League held a
meeting this afternoon and after an ex-
tended session and much discussion adopt
ed a resolution setting forth that they
ARE in favor of the maintenance of the
local option law as amended by the last
Legislature; that they are unalterably on
posed to any movement looking to the re-
peal of the present law or any part threof.
that they are emphatically opposed to. and
protest against, any proposed legislation
looking to the granting of special license
for the sale of liquor to any person or
corporation within the limits of the coun-
ty; that If any candidate or candidates
upon any ticket, wishing the support of
the league, favors granting such license
he or they should not receive the support
of temperance men"
The full proceedings of the meeting
We're not made public but it is learned
upon good authority that the discussion
was very lively with reference to the atti-
tude or certain candidates for office to be
voted for at the approaching election
The reference in the resolutions to "spe-
cial legislation" is understood to apply to
the attitude of Mr.. Blair Lee, candidate
for the state senate, who has been credited
with favoring a high license system for
Montgomery county instead of the present
prohibition law, at least in so far as con-
Germs the Chevy Chase Club and establish
nlentS on the border Of the District of Co
lumbia and other similar resorts in the
eastern section of the county and along
the Conduit road, where the local option
law has been persistentiy violated and Is
said to be still to some extent ignored
From the best accounts obtainable the
meeting of the league was not altogether
harmonious. 1t is known that some of the
most influential leaders of the organiza ton
are not satisfied with the silence main
tanned by the democratic candidates for
the state senate and the house of dele
gates and 1t is certain that a large ma
jority of the members Of the organization
and of genuine temperance people in the
county will not support the democratic
candidates without positive assurances
concerning their attitude upon this SUBJ
ject.
Mr.. John II. Gassaway, a prominent and
influential member Of the league, reiterates
the statement heretofore credited to him to
the effect that he would not support any
candidate who did not unequivocally COM
NIT himself to the maintenance OF the
present local option law. It Is known
that there are large number Of people of
the county who occupy the same position

Old Practices Should Cease.

1T is unfortunate that we have permitted
practices that were necessary 800 years ago
for the protection of innocent people to be
e.aborately perverted so that they become
a means for allowing criminals to escape
the punishment of their criminality. We
urgently need in this country methods for
expedting punishment, methods for doing
away with delay, methods which will secure
to the public an even chance with the GRIM
inal. | don't ask any more. If we can
get an average OF just 30 per cent of the
criminals we will be pretty nearly all right
and will give the public an even chance
with the criminal whose offense is against
the public.
AT the present the right of appeal is
II, certain cases, abused as to make it
a matter of the utmost difficulty ultimately
to punish man sufficiently rich or SufIi-
GENTLY Influential to command really good
legal talent. Now, | am speaking of what
| know, for l am speaking in the light of
experience during the past three years in
trying to get at certain offenders who have
been indicted, and some of whom it has
been almost impossible to get into the juris-
diction of the courts at Washington in order
to try them. There are others whose cases
are still trial.
Il feel that the man who offends against
the state occupies a position rather worse
than that of any other criminal from the
fact that he is man who attacks every
body instead of just one person, so that 1t
is not the special business of any one to
get at him. In consequence if he can keep
the forces of justice at bay long enough
If he can secure one or two mstrials
gradually the popular interest evaporates
and the criminal gets off.

A Greenland whale is equal in
weight to SO elephants or 44O bears.
The kangaroo's tail is the fieshiest
part Of the animal, and is considered
by many quite a dainty article OF

Whales are said to sometimes attain
an age of from 300 TO 400 Years. The
age is ascertained by the size and
number of layers of the whalebone
which increase yearly.
The vitality of the snail is remark
