Now that the election is past,
let US try and get settled down
90 that we may be able to calmly
discuss the "Merry Widow
peril.

WHILE the vote last Tuesday
was to a certain extent a disap.
pointment to the no license ad.
yocates, it was far from being SO
sweeping q victory for the saloon
- to place Milbank in the wet
column for any certainty in the
future. A vigorous campaign
had been made by the nti.saloon
people of the city and they in
creased their vote by 25 from a
year ago, but the other fellows
had increased at the same time,
and with the larger vote the
license advocates had a majority
Of "a instead of 10 as at the pre-
vious election.
After an election has been lost
and won there are always those
who can tell how it was done and
what caused the result. We
don't propose to indulge in this
part of the program. The fact
is that the majority of the voters
in Milbank are not yet satisfied
that the saloon is an evil which
the municipality can get along
without. There are a good many
honest men who look upon il as a
necessary evil. Until such time
as these can be made to see the
matter in q different light, we
are pretty sure to have the in
stitution with US. However, the
matter is now settled for another
year, and the vexed question can
rest for some time. It will be-
fore many years be settled per-
manently and be settled right.

PREMIUM ON s0BRIETY.
German Factory Rewards Employees
Who Do Not Drink,

The following item from Soziale
Praxis, a prominent German periodical
devoted to the social and industrial
welfare of the empire, is of special. in.
terest as showing the progress In Ger
many of the sentiment in favor of to-
tai abstinence from a purely Industrial
standpoint. 1t may well be noted that
the employees referred to are engaged
In the most eXhausting occupations, in
connection with which the assertion is
frequently made that the use Of beer
Is a necessity, inasmuch as it would be
impossible for the workmen to drink
water in sufficient amounts to make up
for the loss by the profuse perspiration
caused by the labor and by the heat of
the furnaces.
A translation Of the item follows:
1.-THE directors Of the Rochling Iron
and Steel works in Volklingen, on the
Saar, have determined on a system of
premiums to be paid to abstinent
workmen. A notice from the directors
Informs the employees that those
workmen, including workmen employ
ed about the furnaces, who abstain
entirely from the use Of alcohol are Of
greater efficiency than those who in
dulge therein. We have therefore de
termined to offer to each employee
who maintains a membership in &
lodge Of Good Templars for more than
n year premiums at the following
rates: Each workman who retains Il
membership of one year shall receive
a premium of 10 marks ($2.3S) per
quarter; those who are members for
two years shall receive an increase of
5 marks (S1.19) per quarter. e., Is
marks $3.50 per quarter. For each
succeeding year of membership a like
addition Of 5 marks is to be made 70
the quarterly premium"
Obviously these directors think that
a sober working force is a desirable
acquisition and are willing tc pay o
considerable added sum to secure it.

Moderate Drinkers Warned.

That the moderate s of liquor Is as
dangerous to the physical well being
al its excessive use, although not as
conspicuously SO, Is the conclusion
reached by DR.. Reid Hunt, chief Of the
division Of p~harmacology Of the United
States public health and marine hos
pital service, after a series OF tests
conducted with animals. Says Or. Hunt
in a pamphlet issued by the govern
ment printing Office, giving the results
Of his experiments:
II have found profound notifications
Of certain physiological processes to
result In a comparatively short time
from doses Of alcohol 20 small that In
dications of intoxication never occur.
eed."
From these tests DR.. Hunt holds that
the moderate drinker endangers life
Just as surely as the n who gets
2runk.

The Cost Of Drink.

The New York Tribune. one Of the
most conservative and reliable news
papers in the United States, says:
'"The drink bill Of the United States
Is $1,41O.236,702. All the corn, wheat,
rye, oats, barley, buckwheat and pota-
toes put together will not pay for It.
The liquor traffic costs more each year
than u whole civil service, our army,
navy and congress, the river, harbor
and pension bills, all we pay for local
government, all national, state and
county debts and all the schools in the
country. In fact, this government

Of Great Britain.
There are not quite 100000 per-
sons in the United Kingdom, but they
annually spend for spirituous liquors
q sum equal to one and a half times
the national revenue, or to all the
rents Of all the homes and farms in
the country. The public house, the
English name for the saloon, with its
barmaid, is as much q national institu-
ton as the houses Of parliament. There
= q public house to every 300 in
hAbitants In England and Wales; in
Scotland, n to every $50 persons; in
Ireland, one to every 271.
Whereas In the days of our forefa-
Tiers the worst drinking was among
the nobility and gentry, today the poor
and working classes are by far the
most Incorporate. The fact that drink
ing Is habitual among the women Of
this grade as well as the men is the
most serious feature, for when women
DO go to the dogs the very uttermost
depths Of degradation are usually
reached before the end IN
At mealtimes throughout the United
Kingdom q procession Of wome with

CHEADLEsA
HE IS A CANDIDATE
LOCAL JURIST AFTER REPUB.
LICAN NOMINATION FOR
GOVERNOR.

Judge E. K. Cheadle. upon his re-
turn from Helena the first of last
week formally announced his can
didacy for the republican nomina-
ton for governor of Montana. His
decision in the matter was reached
after an exhaustive conference with
the leaders of the party in Helena dur
ing which it was urged that he should
become the color bearer the coming
campaign.
TO the Democrat, Judge Cheadle
says that he has made no effort to
secure support for himself and does
not intend to make any such an eff
fort. If the state convention decides
that he is the most available candi-
date, he can hardly refuse after hav-
ing been given preferment by the
party upon numerous occasions in the
past.
For his most probable opponent in
the race, Governor Edwin Norris.
Judge Cheadle has only words of sin
sere good will. He says that with
Gov. Norris as the democratic candi-
date, the campaign will be a clean
one.
The announcement of Judge
Cheadle that he will seek the gov
ernorship, will add little spice to
