Local Option Question.

Editor Marshall Republican:
Dear Sir:-Atter seeing SO
many writing in the county
papers for local option, / will
try and give you my views on
the subject. Now / am not
opposed to bringing the ques-
ton up to the people for de-
cision, and if the majority are
in favor of it to abide by the
decision. Still l cannot quite
agree with some of the argu-
ments made in favor of local
option. Now, l do not believe
any man or boy was ever'coax-
ed into any saloon by any OF
the saloon keepers of our
county. And l believe if the
saloons were well regulated
in regard to selling to certain
men and all minors, and were
compelled TO close up at lC
O'clock at night and pay Ii.

Ihanksgivin' dsy comes once year
because the pilgrim band
Was thankful that they had the sense
TO leave their native land
And come across the ssa to find n
stern and rock-bound shore
Where they would never have TO bow
to hcssss emmy more,
Where thieves would not break In aud
stesl and trusts would never try
TO gobtle everything and let the little
dealer die.
We celebrate Thanktgivin' day be-
cause the Pierims came
In seaieh Of iIesdom where they know
that they would find the sans,
Where linen would be rs brothers,
where the strong would aid the
weak,
Where libbulty would raise her flsg on
cysg and peak,
Wsere billionaiIes would never dare
to cheat fer profits sake,
Or break tho laws that other men w re
not allowed 10 break.
We celebrate because the hopes hoped
u by that Pilgrim band
Have all come true, because there's d OF
an evil ia our land,
Because we have no wealthy rogues
to plan and scbema
10 make the Iibburty we claim vain
and empty dream,
Because cur magnates 20 10 church
and teach in Sunday sch ools,
And everywhere from sea to sea the
Christian spirit rules.
We keep Thanksgivin' day because
the man who dees his best
To be an honest citizen is honored by
the rest;
He may not have share OF stock OF
own foot of land,
But all our wealthy senators are glad
to shake his hand
And hear his plea aud guard his rlght
with all the Jellus care
They ever give the interests OF any
millionaire.
We keep the good old day became nc

The pressing needs Of those where
Want Il scratching at the door,
Recause we hsva at,ah froelon, a. fhs
Pilgrims wished to claim,
Because we never are OF pressed and
never splotchsd with shame,
Because we've frightened greed away
and raised our standard high
And kept car faith for which our sirci
were not afraid to die.
