Courts Should Handle Licenses.

Prosecutor Large has faithfully and
fearlessly prosecuted violators of the
Liquor Laws in this city and secured
their punishment and conviction
The Prosecutor, however, realizes the
fact that under the Excise SYSTEM his
efforts will be and are nullifed.
1t is small wonder therefor that the
Prosecutor when testifying before the
State Excise Commissioner recommend
ed that the licensing power in sd
class counties be vested in the Court
of Common Pleas.
Indeed we believe that if license to
sell intoxicating liquor is to be granted
at all, il would be the better that the
granting power be placed with the
Courts, rather than in the hands of the
usual class of men of which Local FIX
else Boards are composed.

Hard Times BLESSINGS

1t il an old lesson that the uses Of
adversely are oftimes profitable. For
some months the higher educational
institutions have been reporting an
increased number of applications for
fall entrance, which means that de-
spite the pressing need for money,
many people have concluded that edu-
cation in the long run insures way
of making living. Now come re-
ports from the cities telling how hard
times have bettered the health of the
people; even the death rate has been
cut down. And it is not strange,
either. With less money to spend.
there has been less fast living and less
rich living. With money plenty it is
one of the finer arts of civilization to
eat and drink aud make merry to ex-
cess, all of which is not conducive to
good health.

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great change o
few years OF married life often make In
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through tho
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form OF its
fairness.

Publicity Of Campaign Contributions and
Expenditures.

(from Faits Speech OF Acceptance
Another plank OF the Democratic
platform refers to the failure of the Re-
publican convention to express an
opinion in favor OF the publicity of
contributions received and expendi-
lures in elections. Here again we
contrast our opponents promises with
our own acts. Great improvement has
taken place under Republican auspices
In respect TO the collection and expen-
dlture OF money for this purpose. The
old and pernlcious system OF levying
tax ON the salaries OF government
employees in order to pay the expenses
OF the party in control OF the admins
tration has been abolished by statute
BY law passed by the Republican
Congress IN 1907, contributions from
corporations to influence or pay the
expenses connected with the election
OF pre- sidential electors or of members
of Congress is forbidden under penalty.
A resident of New York has been
selected as treasurer of the Rcpubli-
can National committee, who was
treasurer of the Republican State ON
mlt,ee when Governor Hughes was
elected in New York, and who made A
complete statement within twenty days
after election, as required by the New
York law, of the contributions received
by him and the expenditures made by
HIM OF under his authority in connect
ion with that election. His residence
and the discharge of his duties in the
State OF New York subject him to the
law oi that state as to all It's receipts OF
the treasury Ct the National commi ttee
from whatever source, and as to all its
disbursements His returns will be
under the Obligations and penalties OF
the law, and misstatement by him or
the filing of a false account will subject
HIM To prosecution for perjury and
violation OF the statute. OF course
under the Federal law, he is not per
mtted to receive any contributions
from corporations.
II ! am elected President, | shall
urge upon Congress- with every hope
of success, that law be passed re-
curing filing in Federal Office of
statement of the contributions received
by the committees and candidates in
elections for members of Congress, and
and in such other elections as are con-
stitutlonally within the control of Con-
gress. Meantime, the Republican
party by the selection OF New York
treasurer has subjected all its receipts
and expenditures to the compulsory
obligation OF such law.
