THE CHAMPION is first, last and
all the time against County Divi-
SION in any style, shape or form
for a number of good and sufficient
reasons. The advertisement Of the
"divisionists' in this weeks paper
is merely sign that they have
bought and paid for that much
advertising space at political cam
paign rates.

Prohibition the Issue

Our county exchanges that declare division the
issue instead Of prohibition are much mistaken and
their view point of the situation contracted to very
limited area From all over the state COMES the well
authenticated word that the whiskey forces are
organized and spending money never before to
send to the next legislature men who either favor
license or out and out open barrooms- everywhere
Prohibition is then most decidedly the war cry in the
thirty-six counties that are now in the dry ranks
Add to their slogan the beseeching cry of the temper
ance people who in the wet counties but are pray
ing for relief and rescue and one realizes that from
the u s. Senator down to the lowest county office to
be filed only those candidates should be put into
Office whose records read right on this national wide
demand of the hour. We need lawmakers in our
national congress who will see to it that the states
having voted prohibition protected in their rights
We need in state legislature men who will stand
for state prohibition, sure to be brought before our
next legislature. In our county officials we need
sobrr, temperance men. You know which ones they
are fl nm U. S. Senator down. Do your full duty /

c. This half hearted life IS un
satisfactory because it has in It jus

1t is but reasonable to suppose
that the salvation of Christ cannot

Of sin just as really as it gives de-
