That regulation of the liquor traffic
does not regulate the usual of
conducting liquor business clearly proves.
By sales to drunkards, to minors, and
through other prohibited acts, saloons
are more prolific, ordinarily, than blind
tigers. Both cater to mercenary pur-
poses and to the creation and ratifica-
ton of bestial instincts, furnishes what
paralZyes reason and infiames passion.
when to this is added lascivious sugges-
tions liquor vendors fit the worst men
for the worst crimes. How far this can
go is shown by an indescribable cal
endar issued by a negro saloon keeper
in Vicksburg, a copy of which is held
by the chairman of the house commit
tee on liquor traffic. That saloon
keeper, although this matter has been
brought to public attention through the
press, was and is vouched for by the
authorities of Vicksburg as a citizen of
good reputation, and a sober and suit
able person to receive such license"
Without such approval ne could not
have entered the business. He was
doubtless the imitator of some white
men in the same line of business. If
that calendar does not prove hat the
safety of the women of our states de-
mands the speedy closing of the sa-
looms, then such proof is indeed diff
cult.
Such laws should be enacted as win
enforce gamblers in futures, carriers of
concealed weapons and liquor sellers to
reform, or to be removed from oppor-
~tunlties of evil by providing for them
a speedy, short and sure road to prison.

Strange Occurrence Brought About oy
Political Activity.
Special to Daily Leader.
Kingfisher Okla, March % AN in
stance OF the strange occurrences
brought about by political activity is
found in the case o. the two candi-
dates for presidential elector in the
First district The democratic candi-
date is George l.. Bowman, of this
city. formerly county attorney The
republican candidate is Judge J. C..
Roberts, of Enid, formerly territorial
attorney general and now prominent
as an attorney fon the Rock island
railroad
The two candidates were formerly
law partners in this city and are still
fast friends personally. Judge Rob.
berts came here at tie opening OF old
Oklahoma and was IN the land office
for a number iof years. About two
years ago he moved to Enid to de-
vote his time exclusively to the prac-
ice Of law.
Mr. Bowman Is a young democrat Cf
the Virginia variety and a lawyer
of more than passing ability
The two former partners are each
hoping to be in the electoral college
to cast the first electoral vote OF the
newest state in the union.
