difficult to get men who had not
formed an opinion on or were not
prrjudiced by the particulars of
the crime they had read or heard.
Up to the time of going to press he
jury has only been chosen.

possible. He was sentenced to

County Option.
BY LEO.


county of the State the right to
say whether or no saloons shall
sell to drinkers alcoholic stimu-
lants. The legislature now IN
session has the matter now under
consideration. The Governor in
his message asks the law makers
to give the matter their "favora-
BILE consideration"
The Toledo Lamb calls this a
'straddle." We presume Lamb
wanted the governor to eXhort
and urge: but the governor, be-
ing an intelligent, sound temper
ance man thinks that enough was
said by him on the subject. If
the legislature will see fit to pass
an option bill no doubt the gov
ernor will sign it cheerfully. He
is a much wiser man than those
who criticise him for straddle.
Wilt pass? In the lower house
no doubt: but the Senate may
fail to concur. At any rate there
is some doubt about it. A peti-
ton was circulated last week in
this city, and numerously signed
asking the legislature to enact a
county option liquor law. We
signed the paper cheerfully be-
lieving it right to allow every
county in the State to have the
right to decide the question.
1t is home rule.
We have already the township
law enacted in 1888, the munich
pal law passed in 1902: the resi-
dence district law passed in 1904;
and now the demand is for law
applicable to the whole county.
Some time ago we pointed out
some difficulties to be encounter
ed in the enforcement of prohibi-
tory laws against the selling OF
liquor, whereupon some good
brother put us ''on the fence" "
Well, we would rather be on that
coign of vantage for an outlook
than in the brush in the fence
corner. It gives a larger view.
If, however, the brother meant
by ION the fence" an indecisive
attitude on the temperance Ques-
ton we will say to him that three
score years and ten of total abs
thence, and some active temper
ance work as a sufficient answer.
Being "on the fence" for larg-
er outlook we can see how an
option law may fail in many ms
tances. A prohibitory law
against selling to be effective
must have a strong moral senti-
ment back of it. Where prohi-
bition obtains there is still a good
deal of drinking going on, as for
instance in Maine and Kansas.
The law is weak because so many
men are determined to obtain
their drinks one way or another.
And they find it too.
If the present liquor laws of
Ohio were faithfully enforced
there would be much less harm
from the saloon. Let the saloon
be closed on Sundays, let it be
closed promptly at 10 o'clock p.
M, let habitual drunkards have
no drinks of the alcoholic bever-
age, and let no minor have it at
public places, and the community
would have little to complain OF
about liquor selling.
Why are these laws not thor
oughly enforced? Shall we blame
the mayor and police, and no one
else? No, friend, we are all to
blame, we are not vigilant
enough. We clamor for strlcter
laws against liquor selling and
