THE AWAKENING OF THE LIQUOR MEN

The National Model License League, an organization of dIstIllers, brewers, wine makers, wholesalers and retailers, with headquarters at Louisville, Ky, began on October ?, the distribution of an address to the ssloonkeepers of the United States, aa attempt being made to place the address in the hands Of every retailer in the country.
 The address is written by T. Nj. Gll- more, President of the National Model License League. Every retailer throughout the nation is called on to obey the law and 10 meet the will of the people. Attention is called to the fact that the people are opposed to the lawless saloon and to the evils which have been connected to a greater or less extent with the sale of alcoholic bever- ages. Saloon keepers are warned that they must either respect public senti- ment and obey the law, or lose their legal right to do busipess.'
 Even the vote that has turned the scale of the whole nation toward pro- hlbItion is not stronger evidence Of the change in public sentiment than Is the language of this address from the head of SD organization representing the liquor interests. a copy of which has been received by the Alaskan with 8 request for publication. lt is much too long to be given in full but few paragraphs will sufficiently indicate its tenor.
 "The people are demanding, and properly, that their laws shall be obeyed.
 Society is moving forward and the saloon must move forward or be out lawed. The edict has gone forth that men must be sober if they would be free and few men will now contend that man possesses sn inherent right to overthrow bis reason.
 The edic, has gone forth that saloous must obey the laws-that they must not sell to intoxicated men, DOT to habltual drunkards, nor to minors that they mus, not exhibit improper pictures, nor connect themselves with gambling resorts-iu 8 word that the saloon must not be nuisance.
 The press Of the country has 80 de- clared; the ministers have so declared; the Law and Order Leagues have 80 de- clsred the great, conservative element iu society has SO declared.
 "These forces for good are all power ful in society and our trade cannot afford to oppose them.
 "Our trade needs house cleaning and we should aid the good work along. The saloon that is run in violation oi the law or oi 5.ceucy should be put out Of business and the better element iu the trade should continue to lead in the reform.
 "I do not write this letter through any fear of prohibition, write 1t because know that the large majority of saloon keepers want to obey the laws; want to soe their bus iness elevated; want to bid the drunk ard an eternal farewell, and 1t my hope that in the not distant future every saloon keeper who iavors law, orler, deeency and temperance will join the National License League and will stand as we stand with the real forces of reform and fully abreast of the most advanced public sentiment.

A $500 Saddle

The following article from
the Omaha World Herald is of
interest to Mo. Valley people
lin that the Mr.. Clark mentioned
is oastor of the Baptist church
here:
James j. CIuk, who made
the $500 saddle ordered by
Idaho Bill for the prize to be
given to the best rider at the
Lincoln Frontier day, is justly
proud of the many compliments
the saddle is winning. 1t has
been on exhibition at the Haney
establishment and is attracting
much attention. 1t is hand
made and ornamented with
conchas made of Mexican silver
dollars and weighs seventy-five
pounds. The fortunate cowboy
who wins it will have a chance
to carry his cards in a hand
somely embossed card case on
the cantle. The leather has
been entirely hand stamped by
Mr.. Clark, and the designs
comprise Indians, cattle and
horses. These were designed
by Mr.. Clark, and in many
cases stamped directly on the
leather without tracing. The
tapaderos and latigoes are also
deliberately stamped and the
cinches are notable for their
strength and lightness. The
saddle is sweat proof and pat
ent-leather lined. It took the
maker three weeks to make the
saddle.

Dredge Barge In Danger

The big dredge barge be-
longing to the Pollard Dredg-
ing company which left Boyer
cutoff for Omaha, Wednesday,
got stuck on a sandbar two
miles above Florence, Friday
morning and is liable to be-
come a complete loss unless
speedily relieved. Representa-
.tives of the dredging company
were in Omaha, Saturday even
ing trying to secure help but
were unable to do so. It was
hoped to find the government
snag boat, j. B. Mcpherson
here, butt is now at st. Joseph,
Mo. Captain Schultz, in
charge of the government en-
glneering river work for this
district, was unable to give the
dredging company any assur-
ances of help for want Of au-
thority to act in the premises.
The dredging company will APP
peal to Washington to see if
the McP herson cannot be CIR
dered to the scene Of trouble
and pull the barge off the bar.
The sand bar is a new one just
formed by the prevailing high
stage of water in the river. A
couple Of gasoline launches
from the vicinity Of Florence
went to the assistance Of the
barge, but were unable to move
it in the slightest. Help must
be secured speedily or the
barge and dredging machine
will be a complete wreck. Bee.

and Sane" Fourth
Louisville Courier journal.
Already, from east, west,
north and south, the call comes
for a sssafe and sane Fourth.
The approach Of the day is the
signal for the resumption Of
the annual agitation. The pro-
test made in the current num-
Der of the Outlook is repre-
sentative of the entire chorus
of crusaders. "On the Fourth
of july" remarks that contem-
porary, "the people of the
United States, unless they
change their habit, will acqui-
esce in the killing of 16O per
sons and the manning of over
5000. This was the record
two years ago. Of these,
probably seventy-five died of
tetanus, or lockjaw, thirty eight
were killed by gunshot wounds,
fourteen by stray bullets,
eighteen, mostly very small
children, were burned to death.
eighteen were killed by explo-
slons OF powder, dynamite and
Itorpedoes, three by giant fire.
crackers, three by cannon. In
one place six boys were killed
outright. Among the injured,
twenty-five became totally
blind, seventy two lost one eye,
fifty-six lost arms or legs or
hands. This terrible record of
death and injury was made,
not by grown men in defense
of the country, but for the
most part by young boys and
little children conducting a ma
tlonal celebration adopted from
China. The Chinese have
taught US many things, and we
might have learned many more
from them. We chose, how
ever, to take their semi-barbaric
love of noise"

festation Of patriotism and as
a method of celebration. But
the habit is an old one. It is
oae that is not easy to cure.
Taere is no reason, however,
why we should not assert lit
tie faithln human nature and
muster up the courage to be-
lieve that some day there will
be a change and consideration
of humanity and horse sense
will make the Fourth of JULY
more of a holiday and less of a

The wedding ',arty, consisting
|of the bride and groom and

ert Hutton Is best man, en-
tered the church to the strains

possible. The groom also has
grown to manhood in our city

Growing Old. 81
Forty years ago on Friday
next, Gully 3rd) we issued the
first number Of the Harrisonian
|afterward the name was changd
to "The Tines being the first
paper issued in this city.
We continued its publication,
with short intervals, until 1899,
at which time We disposed Of
our entire interest in the office
to our son, r. H. Harris, who
became at once editor and pro
prietor, until the present firm
of Harris & Hoyle was formed,
which still exists, and our ac-
tive connection with the paper
closed. Many Of Of the first
subscribers in 1868 have contin-
ued patrons Of the paper up to
this time. Forty years is a long
time to continue with any pa
per, but some who were with us
in that long ago have gone west
north or south, while others are
calmly sleeping in the silent
tomb.
The paper was established as
a Democratic advocate, and du-
ring the entire editorial control
of its columns by us it was UNI
compromisingly Democratic ev-
er true to that flag, and in vic
tory or defeat, generally de-
feaD, trusting to time and the
voter to make all thing even,
but on retiring from command,
the new editorial management
has made itneutral in politics
Independent in all things.
From 1868 to 1893, there was
no question as to its politics as
the old Democratic banner was
always flying from its mast
head. It is reasonable to sup
pose, that in these long years
when writing so much, and in
the heat of political excitement
we may have said some things
that in our riperyears we would
not say, yet can assure all that
we never wrote a word that we
intended should wound the feel
ings of either friend Of foe,
and now after these long years
OF active mental toll, of which
we have grown tired init but not
of it, and growing oil, we gave
work over to younger and more
able.men, and seek in quiet the
rest so sweet to old age, yet at
times, like some old stage horse
that has so often travelled the
road when he hears the drivers
bugle, feels like again taking
the roads we, when we hear
the political slogan, our blood
is warm for the battle again
and we can but wish we were
young again.
The Times has been published
in this city for forty years, has
been a weekly visitor to many
families, both town and coun-
try has advocated every good
work for the best interest of
the people, as we saw it, during
all these years and today rejoice
in every move that has for its
object the promotion and up
building of society, the improve
ment Of city and county.
We know that our journey Of
life is fast drawing toa close,
and as we near the finish, we
can look back over the past and
feel that we have done the best
we could, under the circumstan-
SEES, and "With malice to none
and charity for ALL" we can
rest from our labors, feeling
that we leave the work we COM
menced here forty years ago, is
in better and more able and
younger hands, and feel the
kindness Of our friends will for
get our errors, and remember
only the good, Gf any we may
