A large and enthusiastic audience as
sembled at the Disciple church last
Sunday evening in the interest of the
coming election on local option for Van
Buren county; speeches were made by II.
Ball and Oscar Olson of our high school,
Both of them did finely. Their appeal in
behalf of our county that they should be
protected from the great evils of the open
saloon ought to have an effect on the
minds of any doubtful voter who might
and figures they presented were along a
little different line than usual. These
young men were listened to with marked
interest by the audience. The closing
talk was by Rev. Mr.. Vince of Leslie,
who was here in exchange with sRev.
Lane of the Baptist church. Mr.. Vince
| having come from an open saloon town
was able to enthuse over the terrible
effects of the saloon to a much greater
degree than could any of our citizens
who have, by the l6 years of life without
the saloon, nearly or quite forgotten
what saloon really is. 1t is truly a
fact that few appreciate the great benefit
we are receiving and the awful effect we
are missing by having this local. option
law.
