PROHIBITION CAMPAIGN.
Anti.SaloOn League Leaders Doing Hard
And Effective Work.


League has about completed
plans for prohibition campaign
to be waged in every county ir
the state during the summer anC
up the the day of the genera
election. The league has already
arranged to have several promi.
nent anti-saloon speakers of the
country take part in the cam.
paign.
The League leaders say they
expect results from the campaign
at the polls next fall. AT pres.
ent there are fifty eight dry
counties in the state, and thi;
number they expect to increase
to sixty eight or more at the gen.
eral election.
The League has just recently
published a map showing the ex.
tent of the liquor traffic in Ar.
kansas at four different period:
in the past seven years. In 1906
there were 20 "dry" counties, in
1904 forty-five "dry" counties,
in 1905 fifty-six "dry" counties,
and in 1908 fifty eight "dry'
counties.
AT present there is not an on.
tirely "wet' county in Arkansas,
according to the map published
by the League. There are ten
counties that are "wet" in only
one town. There are forty "wet''
towns. Thirteen towns are "wet"
with only one saloon. There
are 1923 saloons in the entire state
The total population of "dry''
towns is 100000. The total
population of "wet" towns is
given by the League at 182,475.
Pulaski county leads in the "wet''
counties with sixty.two saloons.
Garland county is second with
fifty five SALOONS and Sebastian
third with forty-nine.

number of saloons in every town

1t has often been said upon the trial
of persons charged with capital
crime, who have become notable for
the array of evidence and professional
skill made available in their defense
by reason of wealth and high esteem.
that otherwise the gallows or electric
chair would have made short shift
OF their miserable lives. But no com.
bination Of circumstances puts the
critic out of business. Many persons
have said during the Mahan trial:
Why take up so much time and incur
such enormous expense to the state
In case where the facts are so plain ?
This last criticism of the administra.
ton OF criminal justice utterly re.
flutes the first, demonstrates again the
power of our free institutions, and is
In itself groundless. In this trial the
state has called to the defense able
counsel and multitude of witnesses
and proved anew that the theory OF
the law that it will carefully protect
the life and liberty of its humblest
citizen is no mockery Instead Of
criticism, 1t were better that we con
graduate ourselves upon renewed
sense of personal security, and of the
value of the institutions under which
We live. 1t ought to make more loya
and patriotic citizens of every one O.

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge 90
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine

The verdict in the Mahan case is a
just one and the jury which has had
the hard work of sitting the mass of
evidence has done its full duty. OF
the guilt of the accused there was no
question. He was not insane, in the
eyes Of the law, but he was shown
conclusively to be only half-witted
and with this element in the case the
jury was not warranted in sending him
to the gallows. The result Is a victory
for both the state and the defence in
its highest sense for 1t is the triumph
of justice. and 1t is no small task to
dig out the truth when it lies so
deeply buried in maze of doubt, and
when the Judgment of the community
is heated by so horrid crime. The
verdict is credit to Bennington
county and especially to the jury who
held the scales of justice In their
hands.

A local instance of the value of
bank advertising. while less remark
able, (than in the case of the Hyde
Park bank is evidence to the same
effect. A year ago the Brattleboro
Trust company was formej with a
capital of 100000. There were those
who said there was no room here for
another bank and that 1t would neces-
sarily have hard struggle for exis-
tence. From the start this bank has
adopted a policy of advertising in the
local papers, contrary to the practice
of Windham county banks At the
end of the year reports deposits of
$4,000; under existing conditions
the directors would have reason to be
content with business amounting to
half that sum the first year. Advertis-
ing alone will not accomplish such re-
suits, but coupled with business In
tegrity and hard work 1t will surely
pay.-Brattleboro Reformer.
