MINNEAPOLIS and PAUL. MIMI.
Ohio
Two Chapters from the History Of the Buck
eye State.

eye State.
For some reason Ohio is referred
to by press and platform as field
on which the fight against the liquor
traffic has been crowned with signal
success. Perhaps 'tis distance lends
enchantment to the view" In any
event brief history may be of inter-
est.
Chapter !.
The people of Ohio are exception
ally intelligent, high minded and
patriotic. In 1851 they adopted a no
license constitution by 10000 major
ity, but were tricked out of it by Of
ficial rascality. In 1888, in spite OF
the opposition of the party in power
they, adopted a strong prohibition
amendment to their constitution by
the decisive vote of $4,000 majority,
rejecting, at the same election an al
tentative proposition providing for
the regulation and taxation Of the
traffic by $4,000. Under technical
subterfuges the party in power nulli-
fled the will of the people by the
same species Of political treachery
practised, with the same results, in
Iowa.
This is Ohio's record, and seems to
teach two facts
First, the people of Ohio have
three times expressed themselves
emphatically against the saloon, and
never in favor of it.
Second, that the dominant party
of Ohio has three times stood for the
protection of the saloon from the
wrath of the people, and never stood
against it.
In any event, after the adoption, by
the people of a nolicense constitu-
ton and a prohibition amendment
Ohio has, and has had the saloon, the
distillery, and the brewery, all in de-
fiance of the will of the people, and
all fully protected by laws enacted by
the party that had played treason
with the expressed will Of the elec-
torate. That is the record Draw
your own conclusions. It may be the
record of signal victory. God save
us from such!
Chapter 2.
Some Of the people, finding that
their political guardian would not let
them have prohibition, no matter how
decisive the vote for it, sought to
compromise by lowering their de-
mands to such measures as public
sentiment would support (sic). In
Ohio public sentiment is not to be
gagged by so insignificant an affair
as popular majority of $4,000 to
$4,000. The test Of public CD senti-
ment in Ohio is the sentiment of the
party in power.
Some years have lapsed, and our
ears and eyes have wondered at the
things we have heard and read of
the marvellous victories that have at
tended the efforts to get the getable
and get it now. And the people of
Ohio have been glad to pay thousands
upon thousands to prosecute cam
paigns Of surprising magnitude. The
getable has been got. Let every
friend of the flag release an honest
yell, and throw up his hat, BUT let
him not mistake birds for bear when
he looks in the game bag.

COAL COMPANY is ENJoINED
Old Concern Objects to New One
Using the Name of
Monarch.

SHERIDAN, wyo., Jan. N.-(special.)-A
suit to restrain the Monarch Coal Mining
company from using the name Monarch"
has been filed in the district court here by
the Wyoming Coal Mining company ship
pers Of Monarch" coal. The suit is against
John b. Kendrick and E. E. Enterline, we'll
known men OF Sheridan. and W. c. Irvine
and ]. T. Williams OF Douglas. who have
recently Incorporated the new company
The petition alleges the new concern seeks
to injure the plaintiff and obtain an undue
advantage. and TO deprive plaintiff, traudu-
lently and unlawfuly, OF just profits, and
to pirate, make use of and appropriate to
themselves the good will of plaintiffs bust
ness by appropristing its trademark OF
Monarch Coal" The new company's
mines are also at Monarch, but the old
company insists it has no right to the use
of the words Monarch Coal" as the plain
tin has expended thousands OF dollars in
advertising this name and Is entitled to
the benefit. The case will be heard as soon
as Judge Parmelee can assign date.

MOVE FOR FREE SYNAGOGUE
Rabbi Wise Formally Launches the
Project, I'm New YOrG
Meeting.

NEW YORK. Jan. H.-The movement to
establish what will be known as a Tree
synagogue" was formally launched today
at a meeting In the Hudson theater, at
which the founder. Rabbi stephen s. Wise
formerly OF Portland, Ore, delivered the
first OF a series OF addresses. He referred
to his call to occupy the pulpit Of New
York synagogue, which was not acceptable,
he said, because certain restrictions would
have been put upon him.
Dr. Wise declared that the suspicion that
the ministry of both the Christian and
Jewish religion was controlled and owned
by the rich. and that the ministers thereof
were mere 'lackeys OF the wealthy" was
partially, at least, borne out by the conduct
OF the ministers themselves.
THE average minister" he declared, lis
a tolerated social necessity, who prefers
peace and servility to strife and freedom,
Even II the Jews would not observe
their Sabbath, It would still be the duty
OF this synagogue TO proclaim the message
to them on the one day in the week when
II is possible to reach them. II We must
sacrifice the form OF the Sabbath We will
conserve its substance"

TRADE TO CUBA INCREASES
Two Million Dollars More Thnn
that of the Preceding
Year.

WASHINGTON, Jan. N.-Never before
in the history of United States commerce
with Cuba was the export trade of this
country to that island so great as during
the last calendar year. American importa-
tions from that republic are considerably
below that for the preceding years. accord
ing to a statement issued by the bureau
OF statistics Of the Department OF Com
merce and Labor today. The total exports
from this country to Cuba were valued
at S46, 40, s44, which IL more than 100000
over the expectations for 1905.
The importations from Cuba were valued
at S5.o5S,2e6, showing a failing of OF
SIC 100000 as compared with 1906. The
marked decline In American importations
from the island is accounted for, because
OF the reduction in the price of sugar.

VISITING CARDS FOR KINGS.
Those of the German Kaiser Are the
Most Imposing.

The German emperor believes in
being sufficiently represented. even on
visiting card. No ordinary sized
piece of pasteboard will suffice him,
for Williams cards measure no less
than six inches in length and four
in width. On the upper line is the
single word Wilhelm" and below are
the words "Deutscher Kaiser" and
KONG Won Preussen." The words are
printed in large. fat German script
letters OF course, the emperor does
not carry these imposing sheets Of
pasteboard himself; they are confded
to his chasseur, or body servant, who
follows him.
The other sovereigns of Europe are
content with more modest visiting
cards, with the words upon them in
Latin script Among the simplest in
size and appearance are those Of the
emperor of Austria and the prince of
Wales. The prince has two sets Of
cards. one for use abroad and the
other for England The English one
bears the words '"The Prince of
Wales" the other the French equiva
lent, Prince de Gales"
