ties, and who refused to give evidence or to testify against the guilty ones, should have been punished.
 We think all this will be admitted by right-thinking and fair-minded people, and so far there Is nothing about which there should be any real difference of opinion. The real point of controversy lies in the fact that it is at least possible that the innocent may have been punished equally with the guilty. It Is contended that there may have been some who had no knowledge, direct or indirect, of the affair. They may have known nothing of it. either before or after, no sym pathy with the act or the actors. and were absolutely in ignorance as to the names of those who participated in tho outbreak. If that Is true, and these soldiers were innocent, not only in act but in thought or knowledge, was it right to punish and disgrace them along with the really guilty ones? This is the only real Issue in the minds of those who have taken an impartial view of the matter. and if the courts can clear up all these disputed points 1t may settle a matter that seems to have had an undue share of notOriety.

LEAGUE LEADER
Comments On Address of Model
License League.

In Col. T. Nj. Gilmore's address
to the saloonists of the country,
published in your issue of October
/ he states that The prohibition
wave that was sweeping over the
country would seem to be on the
wane." This is how the wave is re-
treating.
The Legislature of Indiana
passed the County Unit bill last
week. When the people of that
State get vote at the saloons the
liquor men know what will hap
pen.
Seventeen counties in Ohio
voted out the saloons within five
days.
Ten elections have been held in
Kentucky within the last three
months and have voted dry by in
creasing majorities, Georgetown
election being in the courts.
Maine refused to vote for resub-
mission.
There were S64S less Federal
stamp tax payers to retail liquors
taken out this July than last. The
decrease on taxes paid on distilled
spirits is SIC, ITS, O95 less than last
year. This kind of waning

MIR. BRYAN's GOOD QUALITIES.

mr.. Bryan has many qualities
that appeal strongly to the ordinary
American. He has worked hard
all his life; he has been successful,
and he has deserved what he has
gained, because he has always been
sincere and in earnest.
In his wonderful oratory is r.
hected an able, earnest mind. He
has studied public questions
thoroughly and states his cOnclu-
sion modestly. He is vigorous
in the assertion of his convictions
but patient in listening to the con-
victions and arguments of others.
