But the Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton was unwilling to see such an
overwhelming demonstration of the
offered the city authorities $500 for
each saloon, as against $85, the for
mer fee. Mayor Schmitz demanded
$500 and the bloody bargain was
struck.
One would expect to see the church
of God spring to the fore in such an
emergency, if only to protect her own
interests. With 5000 more saloons
than churches, the saloons were &C.
customed to hold high carnival on the
Sabbath day. The church, under
license-voting pastors, lost in men,
bership and moral force, until at the
time of the earthquake, her member
ship in San Francisco was less by
several thousand than twenty-five
years ago.
Yet, on the day appointed by the
city authorities for hearing on the
matter of re-opening saloons, we are
told that only one pastor was present
and he not to protest against the
re-opening, and, although Catholics
number 500 of the total population,
Archbishop Montgomery only asked
that the license fee be raised to $500,
declaring that there is no moral
wrong in making, selling and drink
ing liquor"
Here is the first result: The first
Monday morning after the re-opening
of the saloons July 9th), there were
"a victims before the police courts as
against five on the previous Monday,
70 on Friday as against two on the
previous Friday and the second Mon
day 113 as against three or four the
second Monday before re-opening. De-
fenceless women have been assaulted
and outraged in their tents. A little
six-year-old girl was outraged in one
of the refugee tents. Extra police
men have been asked for to protect
the defenceless refugee women and
children and extra guards have been
stationed at the Preside camps to
protect the homeless.

I am seventy-five years old in
August and never bought or drank a
glass of liquor in my life. So you see
1 am an old Prohibitionist-A sub
Scriber.
This illustrates a common error.
Our aged friend is total abstainer.
We hope he is also a Prohibitionist.
A total abstainer is one who drinks no
intoxicating liquor as a beverage. A
Prohibitionist is one who believes in
and votes for the suppression by law
of the importation, manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors for bever-
age purposes. A man may be a total
abstainer and not Prohibitionist.
Some saloonkeepers are total abstain
ers. Or he may be a Prohibitionist
and not a total abstainer. Some
drunkards and many drinkers believe
in and vote for prohibition, and there
fore are Prohibitionists.

JUDGES OF ELECTION,

1t having been legally determined that
the Prohibition party is entitled to every
recognition accorded to other parties, we
are entitled to judge of election at the
primary and general elections in each
precinct of every village or city in which
there are two or more precincts. There
are more than 500 such precincts in the
state.
1t is now up to the workers and officials
of the party to make up and file with the
city council their list of those who will
serve as judges, if appointed. This should
be done at least 80 days before the prim-
aries, that is, by, Aug, IS; These lists
must be furnished by the local Prohibi-
ton committees and certified by the
clerks or secretaries thereof.
Our representation upon the boards Of
judges will dignity the party, help to pro-
tect our interests in the casting and
counting of votes and put snug sum
of money into the pockets Of faithful Pro-
hibitionists. One of the prerogatives of
the judges is to elect two clerks who are
also remunerated. The first two judges
of board who "get together on this
point drop the bird.

didates at the primary under the law. If
that, at the last election he supported a
majority of the candidates of the party
for whose primay ticket he asks and
that he intends to support majority of
it's candidates at the coming election. A
Prohibitionist who should vote the Re-

Adverse Decision of Supreme Court

Adverse Decision of Supreme Court.
w. G. Thompson, Minneapolis Pro-
hibitionist, attempted to file for the
nomination for representative in
the 40th district but declined to pay
$40 for the privilege. His contention
was that the fee (Which is $40 for the
primary election and also $40 for the
general election) involves a property
qualification which is contrary to the
constitution of the state. In some dis
tricts the fee would be $40 for each
election, making total of $40. There
can be no doubt in the mind of any
that if law had been passed that, be-
fore a man might run for the legis-
lature, he should go before some magi-
strate and take oath that he possessed
$40 or it's equivalent in real or per-
sonal property, the supreme court

KEEP SWEET.
A recent issue of The Defender con-
tains a cartoon representing the devil
in council with gamblers, libertines
and various other evil characters re-
garding a resolution that the Prohibi-
ton party should go to the rear. The
resolution is carried unanimously and
with great enthusiasm. One clause
in an editorial in the same issue of the
able journal above alluded to impels
us to inform brother Ferguson that
the editor of The Public Veal re-
NAMED in the gallery after he left
and that at the after-meeting the an
nouncement that two certain PrOhibi-
ton papers were abiding to each
other in uncomplimentary terms
brought out an enthusiasm that not
only ratified the shingles but threat
ened to loosen the foundation at sew
eral points.
FEDERAL ATTACK ON CARRY Ma
TON.
Garry Nation has been arrested by
Federal authority for publishing OBJ
scene literature. We have read the
matter in question. 1t appeared in
her paper, The Ratchet, o. the issue
of July LIST. The charge against her
is small business. She addresses her
boy and girl readers in most loving
manner and says nothing more than
any wise parent will say to his or
her children. Howbeit, as usual, she
doesn't mince her words.
Mrs. Nation has her own opinion
of President Roosevelt and is not
mealy-mouthed about declaring re-
peatedly that he is responsible for the
saloons, dives and other places of
shame within sight of the White
House and under the control of the
District commission which he nomin-
ated. Those who sit in the seat of
the scornful may be inclined to sus-
pect some connection between this fact
and the shameful attack upon her.

FRISCO SALOONS RE-oPENED.

Prohibition has rarely, if ever, been
enforced more rigidly than at San
Francisco for the week following the
great disaster. Mayor Schmitz is
sued an order forbidding any person
to sell, give away or even drink alco-
holic liquors. The danger of drink to
the public welfare was so great that
a man caught with a bottle of liquor
in his pocket was shot down. The
result was that, with thousands of
homeless people in the city and thou
sands of visitors coming into the city,
the arrests from April Goth to July
4th were only two to six per day. De-
spite the terrible strain and excite
ment, the police force testified that
they had nothing to do. It would seem
as though such an object lesson would
have been needed and that the pro-
hibition policy of the city would have
been permanent. Under the old re-
gime it cost the people $1,OO5,96O to
patrol the city and make the hundred
or more arrests per day, to say nothing
of the costs of courts, trials, prisons,
etc. In other words, it required $751;
160 year more for police protection
than the city received from the sa-
looms that chiefly made that protec-
ton necessary.

TACKER AND FASTER.

would promptly declare the law in
conflict with constitutional provisions.
But the matter as it stands is i'm
measurably worse, for it requires, not
only that he be the possessor of the
amount of property equal to the fee,
but that he shall own enough more to
be willing to part with that amount.
Well, on an appeal from the deci-
sion Of the Hennepin district court,
the supreme court turned down Mr..
Thompson's contention. 1t declared
the fee reasonable one and the law
constitutional That, of course, set
ties the matter for the present. But
the laymen, and not few who are
learned in the law as well, will keep
thinking. So far as we know, no
other state in the Union has ever
maintained a statute so viciously in
terfering with the rights Of citizens
through election laws as the law re-
quiring that candidate shall pay an
exorbitant and arbitrary fee in order
that his name may be printed upon the
official ballot
Relief can now be sought only at
the hands of the legislature. The
trend of the election laws passed dur
ing recent years has been strongly
toward the determination Of minor
parties. This makes political reform
well-nigh impossible and strikes at the
foundations of a republican form of
government Elect a Prohibition leg
islature and these monstrous wrongs
will be righted.
