A Saloon Motto

Editor Review-Sir. Will you be
kind enough to publish in your
paper this clipping and obIige
friend of temperaucef
When the. saloons went out of
business in the new state of Okla
fioma under the prohibition clause
Of the constitution, one Guthrie
saloon Haunted long streamers Of
Grape on its doors. In its big plate
glass windows on the last night
that II was open, big barrel, heav-
lily draped in black was set, with an
empty glass beneath Its open faucet.
On it a large placard was mounted: I:
Everything going out and nothing
coming in"
This was an unusual motto-one
symbolizing the destruction Of its
business. Though the saloon
keeper did not mean il to do so, II
inevitably suggested the usual and
fitting saloon motto to be just the
opposite. like this: Everything
coming in and nothing going out
The truth Of this second motto will
be apparant to anyone who has ever
watched saloon entrance. Money
goes into the saloon IN quantities,
day after day strength and respect
ability, and decency and youth and
promise and hope go in but no one
of them comes out. The saloon
swallows and bankrupts them all.
Nothing comes out but drunkards.
Take the biggest and best-conducted
saloon In any town, after twenty
years of business, and figure up
what has come out Of II Of value to
the community, the answer Is always
and inevitably; ''Nothingp A
more unproduc,ive business never
existed or can exist than the saloon
business. Oklahoma, is a progress
i've and prosperous state. has wiped
Il out wisely and forever. Where
the saloon puts on Grape the CON-
munity may well rejoice, for the
prosperity Of the state is assured.

John Manning for Attorney

We have been asked to give some
reasons why an independent think
er even though republican, might
break his record and vote for Mr..
Manning for district attorney.
There are two reasons which
would appeal to any man who
looked more to the welfare Of his
country than the success Of his
party and the first Of these is that
John Manning is the man who shut
up the saloons on Sunday and has
kept them closed. He has prom
ised that If he is elected he will
continue this policy and keep these
places closed on Sunday. You may
know that this we say is true b,

We carry In stock typewriter

We do not allow any printer to
put out nicer work than we do and
we put the best stock into our jobs.
The difference between poor
stock and first class stock on job
is a small item when you consider
the value Of the job. 1t is the
price of satisfied customer. 1t Is
better to make so cents less on

CHARITY TO BE BENEFITED
BY THE UNION ADJUSTMENT

The adjustment committee of the
Central Labor Union has under con-
sideration a new and novel scheme for
smoothing over differences with employ
ers, when an employer wishes TO dem
onsUrate his honesty Of purpose In deal
ing with union men. The manager Of
one of the local Nickelodians. or scent
theaters, has offered TO donate one
week receipts to any worthy charity
named by the committee, as evidence
Of his sincerity in promises to employ
nothing but union men in the future.
When the building on Pennsylvania
avenue occupied by the theater was
rebuilt for its accommodation. nom
union men were employed. This was
called 10 the attention Of the Central
Labor Union, and ali union men were
cautioned not 10 patrOniZs the place and
the matter was called 10 the attention
of the manager. The manager declared
that he was totally in ignorance of
any Offense and was ready and willing
10 adjust any grievance, He first Of
fered 70 pay the amount that would
have been earned by union men on the
work, the sum TO go 10 union men out
OF work. He was informed. however,
that the union could take care or It's
own men. but that they would agree
he should pay a weeks receipts TO
charity. This was agreed 10, and the
money will probably be turned over TO
the Associated Charities. Another prOpO-
sition was that the adjustment commit
tee take over the house for a stated
period and keep all earnings

UNIONISTS BUSY
IN DELEGATE RACE

Organized labor will throw its full
force into the forthcoming primaries
In the District of Columbia for the cleo
ton Of delegates from the District 20
the Republican and Democratic national
conventions. Leaders throughout the
city have been urging the men to come
out and 10 line their strength behind a
man who Will support organized labor.
No candidate for delegate who will vote
for Secretary Taft will be supported by
the union men.
There will be several labor candidates
in the field, although there is a move
ment on foot TO agree on one candidate
and give him the unanimous indorse-
ment of organized labor Several men
prominent in Washington labor circles
are sdrmishing for votes. and whether
Il will be possible to agree on the in
dorsement Of one man remains to be
seen.
This is only small end of the politi-
cal activity of the American Federation
Of Labor. which, it is said. viii be
greatly enlarged in the coming cam
palgn.
The primaries in Washington are free
for all and there are always a dozen or
more candidates in the field. Local lead
rrs in the labor movement are in the
field urging upon the men the sending
of an instructed delegate, who is TO
use his judgment in voting for any man
that is friendly. but is positively not TO
vote for any man declared unfriendly.
tt is believed by many that eventually
the primaries may be used as a stepping
stone to suffrage, which is the an
nOunced aim OF practically all the local
