"SETTLE 1T IN 1908"

Commenting on this, the national
committees war-cry for this campaign,
Chairman Jones disclaims an expecta,
ton that the liquor traffic will be
driven from the field in utter rout
this year. He nevertheless insists:
I'VE have not established a reputation
Tor rainbow, chasing, and so with the
more confidence we assure our readers
that it is within the power Of the Pro.
hibition party in this year Of 1908 to put
the cause Of Prohibition ahead Of all other

cognized as the question next to be dis

THE ST. PAUL CAMPAIGN.

While the campaign in which the
Prohibitionists Of st. Paul are en-
gagged is a local one, every local skir-
mish with the saloon plays it's part
in the great nationwide struggle. It
should therefore be conducted along
the same lines of relentless hostility
to the saloon and with determination
inspired by hope of the complete vic
tory. Is it suggested that the wise
thing to do this year is to make some
advance toward law enforcement by
supporting Mr.. McKibbin for Mayor,
hold that ground for two years and
then advance to higher ground? If
law enforcement is what is needed
now, the best move in that direction
next to electing the Prohibition
tickets to give it the largest vote
possible
What has been accomplished in the
past looking toward Prohibition has
usually followed and has largely been
the result Of Prohibition party &C
tivity. The other parties have often
thus been compelled to improve their
platforms and to nominate a more
worthy class of candidates. The
same has been true and will continue
to be true Of law enforcement
Suppose that the Prohibition party
is not successful in the pending cam
paign in the Capital city. Take the
position now, if you please, that it
can not win. But let the friends Of
decency, law and order give it 1000,
5000 or 5000 votes and there is no
party, however corrupt, and no Of
fical. however much the tool of the

THIS editor has for years spelled
prohibition with a Flower case initial
except where we used it as an adj
Jective qualifying the word party.
The public press won't have it SO,
however, and we yield. From this

capital P. Our cause goes marching
on through the dictionary and gram
mar as well as in several other places.

THIS is THE TIME

Thousands of readers have said for
years: when the Prohibitionists
nave a chance Of winning, they shall
nave the help Of my ballot" Let all
such know that the year Of their op-
portunity has arrived. The Prohi-
Dltionists OF Minnesota elected three
stalWart representatives to the last
Legislature and nearly landed ten
more. This time we expect to multi
ply our former representation by five
or ten, and the campaign has already
opened. Fall in!
