l-z..ee-zA1AMs brewer. he says, and by
comparison has some reason to say,
that he is manufacturer of an arti-
Gle of consumption which is healthful,
which neither leads to nor is dependent
upon law breaking, dissipation, de-
bauchery or crime
The brewer essays to separate him
self from the liquor distiller and deal
er. He believes in all sincerity that
odium is cast upon him unjustly be-
cause beer and whisky are sold in
the same place. The verdict of public
opinion that makes him bear the brunt
of dealings in drink that has a higher
percentage of alcohol he thinks I'M
just
And what we have told of the brewer
is true of the distiller, the rectifier,
the wholesale dealer, the jobber and
every agency in the supply of barrel,
case and bottle liquors.
Therefore, we say that the best OF
the saloonkeepers, the best of the
brewers and the best of the distillers,
by their failure to help, not the Pro-
hibitionists, but the law-abiding citi-
zens, to hold the worse men of their
trade within the lines of decency and
obedience of the law, have put upon
their own backs the burden of respon-
sibiiity for all the wrongs and evils,
born not only from the legal use, but
from the illegal misuse, of their busi-
ness.
1t is for these reasons that their
arguments and protestations and ap-
peals fall on deaf ears. 1t is for this
reason that men who vote and women
who influence mems votes are refusing
to differentiate the honest, church,
going, decent-living dealer in drink by
wholesale or retail from the dive-keep-
ing dealer in debauchery and degra-
dation.
We choose now not to say why this
movement is sweeping throughout this
whole land today We shall have moro
to say upon this topic, which, like
every world happening which has

money, but hours and conditions under
which they are to be used. Since his
brain and muscle are part of himself
If he sells them for money alone with
out other provision limiting their ex-
ploitation he becomes a slave. By
whatever means he is able to insist
upon favorable conditions for their ex-
ercise he maintains his liberty to the
degree in which he can demand them.
On the other hand, the man who has
money, for the utilization of which
brain and muscle are needed in greater
degree than he himself enjoys, will nat
rrally seek to buy brain and muscle as
'cheaply as it can be obtained. This is
the question between capital and labor,
and so long as society continues on it's
present basis, the question will con-
tinue one for continual discussion. de-
spite the pleasant sophistries of Wall
street organs.-Louisville (Ky.) Herald.

The Rainbeau


1t rained and poured, and rivers roared
Adown each brimming gutter.
And she who couldn't pace a board
Her heart was in fiutter
Until some gallant braved the deep
To guide her to the bank
Her lily hand his paw would keep
The while she walked the plank,
And while the torrents down below
The plashing uplands drained.
1t rained and rained and rained and rained
And rained and rained and rained.

THE ELECTION.

Whatever may be all the results of yesterdays alignment on the prohibi- ton question. if the saloonkeepers in- terpret it correctly there will be less complaint of them than in the past. Fifty-three percent of the voters de- clared against the liquor traffice and the saloonkeeners cannot afford to sup pose that all of the other forty seven per cent are -prohibitiOnists It is certain that some, and perhaps many. voted against prohibition not because they did not believe in the principle but because they believed the enforce lnent of it could not be afforded at this time. That that is the case is in dicated the geography of the vote. the country supporting prohibition. the city going against it. To the form CT there were no financial entangle- ments while to the latter there was an apparently serious one.
 At least two years must elapse be- fore the battle may be fought over again and in two years either one of two things may have taken place. The spirit of prohibition may have lost some of its activity which is now so manifest throughout the country or the city of Phoenix may need money less than it did yesterday
