ted in primary. The law is all
right and the people have had an
opportunity to express their opinion;
if they fail to take advantage of
their nights of suffrage it is their
fault and no. the fault OF the law.
Very good, SO far. But in such an
election where the majority fails to
vote the Mail claims that the result
is no criterion of public opinion. ''ln
brief, it adds, "our position is that
the ballot is not Il guarantee of pub
lie sentiment The latter Is GER
tainly remarkable statement even
coming from the Mail. If the bal
lot is no guarantee of public Sentl-
ment we should like for our wise
and learned friend to suggest some
thing THAT'S guarantee.
As to whether or not public sentl-
ment will be behind prohibition if
the dispensary be voted out in this
county, that is matter Of opinion.
If are there only Two Issues before the
people public sentiment must favor
one OF the other and the preponder-
ance of evidence is that it is not the
dispensary, other wise it would not
allow the Great Moral Institution
to be abolished. And if it does
not favor the d ispensary
the evitabl e conclusion Is
that it stands for prohibition. That
is the proposition the Mail says we
assume without trying to prove.
We thought We had made it plain
enough even for the Mail to com
prehend, but as it seems to have ut
terly failed to grasp the point, we
have made it PLANES.
In trying to extricate itself from
the dilemma in which we placed 1t
the Mail makes a bad plight worse.
Here is a sample. Last eek we
said:
Suppose for the sake of argu-
ment-that only half (of the quail
fled voters) should vote and there is
a majority for prohibition. A very
small proportion of the qualified
voters voted in the last general cleo
tion-does our friend mean to say
that if all had voted the result would
have been different?
The Mails reply to this is . fair
example of its bright and shining
"logic." Behold it squirm and
wriggle: "In the last general cleo
tion the voters were only sanction
ing their previous verdict expressed
in the primary election. Twenty
two hundred voters had spoken in
the primary and if only one hundred
had voted in the general election it
would still have been the voice Of
1900" Just so. And if only 1000
vote in the pending election it will
be Just the same as though 2200 had
spoken; for it is u pretty safe pro-
position that the proportion that
does vote in a general election voices
the sentiment of those who through
negligence or indifference fail to 60
to the polls. For instance, ip Flor
ence county, we are cre1ibly in
formed that by mutual agreement
every man Ehose name appeared on
the registration books was allowed
TO vote. whether or not he had Il
registration certificate, and it was
roted that of the number who under
strict observance of the law would
have been disqualified, us many vot-
ed for prohibition as for the dis.

red the privilege neither side would
have lost or gained anything at all.
The Mail goes on to say, "that the
conditions of this pending dispen,
sarv election and the last general
election are in no way connected Is
apparent to the most listlcss observer
and need hot be discussed here. We
contend that the conditions are pre-,
ciscly similar except in one partlcu'
lular. which seems to have entirely
escaped the eagle eve of on. discern
! inc friend. viz, in the last general
election the 22O0 voters in the pri-
mary We're sworn to support the
nominees of the party; yet IN spite
of this many of them failed to vote
in the general election. Vixen SC
few comparatively voted in the gen.
eral elect after all had
taken a solemn oath to do Sc, 1t Is
scarcely surprising that the full vot-
ing strength of a county does not
turn out in general election under
the-sice law. This is an off-year
in politics and the people are busy
irving to make living. Fully as
many who want the dispensary vot,
ed out do not take the trouble to
vote as the friends of the system
who stay at home on election day,
Notwithstanding our friends opinion
to the contrary.
Now as to our mlSquoting. The
Mail makes much ado over our stat,
ing that its estimate of the probable
vote in the ensuing election would
be three-siXths when it claims it
guessed three -fifths. We quoted the
fraction from memory and the Mall
is welcome to all the capital that
can be made of the hair breadth of
difference.
The Mail deTOtes Il lot of space
trying to show that the prohibition
lists sheuld have enforced the diSpen:
sarv law, This argument is so fan
,astic as to transcend the bounds of
absnrdlty. Yes, the legislature did
betray the prohibitioniSts by giving
them the dispensary law instead of
straight prohibition and the fact
cannot be disproved. Our friend in,
quires why South Carolina took 50
long to find out that she had been
betrayed. If by South Carolina is
meant the prohibitionists, We may
say that they knew it at the time, but
before they got a chance at the bal
lot box again two years had passed.
anu they listened to the promises
held ont by the trainers of the law
and rather then have it changed
without trial they submitted, and
still beguiled by specious promises of
the apologists for the law-the same
old bait You are trying to catch them
with even now-they patiently bided
their time hoping against hope fol
the things that never came.
Yes, the law had a self-enforcing
clause-an army of constables-but
they failed to enforce it Jecause the
dispensary system is breeder of
blind tigers. Do you See the point:
Maybe we'd better make it palmer.
The dlspensary law in warp and
woof is Il tangle of contradiction
This is just one OF many that may
be pointed out. What was meant
as reinforcing clause was mill
fled by the fact that under the dis
pensary law blind tigers spring VI

It's a good rule to live intensely, and
1T is a good rule to live today and every

Such was the advice given to the
1909 freshman class of Harvard by
President Eliot in the Harvard union
last night. And he went on:

The second thing necessary is a

Cambridge, Ill.,, Oct. 11.-The first i'm
portant testimony in the mystery sur
rounding the death Of Attorney John V.
Streed was taken yesterday, when the
inquest, which has twice been post
poned, was resumed.
Mrs. Streed, the widow, spent several
hours on the witness stand answering
the questions of States Attorney
Sturtz, Coroner Macarthur and the six
GUS case was covered, but she could not
name the assassin nor give tangible
clue. T. .~E' ~
Mrs. Streed was closely questioned as
to the fears entertained by her husband,
to which he had made reference in con-
versation with many Cambridge people.
She said she thought these fears were
largely due to threats which he had
heard had been made against him, as
told in the letter which he wrote to her
when she. was at St. Joseph, Mich, on
Sept. 6. He then mentioned only Dr.
Powell, the man who committed suicide
several weeks before the attorney s
death.
Mrs. Streed was asked as to the
Matchmaking schemes Of which some
thing had been said. She told how
Streed had mentioned the fact to he1
that an attempt had been made tc
the matter at that time. She said he
also told her that attempts had been
made to blackmail other Cambridge
citizens. Mrs. Streed did not know the
names Of these other citizens.
When questioned as to whether she
knew of any motive for murder, she was
unable to state that she did, altho she
expressed the belief that her. husband
had been assaulted several times.
