showing In point Of fact, the number has been
far more than doubled, because great many of
those arrested for drunkenness merely pay their
fines and are not imprisoned, while, since the
enactment of the high-license measure, the public
officials who under the old Prohibition system,
were anxious to make and report arrests for
drunkenness, in order to make weight against
the Prohibition policy, refrain from making
arrests for drunkenness wherever it can be
avoided
A carefully prepared table shows that in just
county of the state have the number of inn
prisonments for drunkenness decreased. That is
Grand Isle county, where, during the last four
years of Prohibition, there were four cases Of
drunkenness reported and during the first four
years of high license, two cases. In the other
thirteen counties of the state the increase in
drunkenness averages 213 percent
The time studied begins with May 1, $780, the
four years up to May, 1908, being Prohibition
years and the four years from May 1, 1908, to
May l, 1902, being high-license years with local
option. The record is as follows:
Addison county-Four years Prohibition, IA

In addition to this it is shown by the official
report of the directors of the house of correc-
ton that under high license with local option,
the number of commitments to the house of
correction has almost doubled. The figures given
are for biennial periods and fourteen years,
including and preceding 1906. The table is as

THE BATTLE HYMN

We do not incline to the belief that
much success will follow President Rocs-
evelt's attempt to have the nation adopt
his favorite song as its national hymn.
In the current issue of Uncle Remus
Magazine the president writes an article
in which he proposes Julia Ward
Howe's Battle Hymn of the Repub-
lie" as the national hymn for the peo-
pie. He recognizes, as does everyone
else, the fact that the most popular of
airs is Dixie the air of which may
be said in fact to be a national one. As
tho president says:
"The whole country has adopted it.
1t is the best fighting tune of America.
1t would make sick rabbit call a bull
dog liar just to hear it played. 1t is
sung and applauded in the north as well
as in the south. The northerners do not
see the least bit of partisan or sectional
sentiment in it,
This is quite true as far as it goes,
and is q most forceful statement of the
case, though we cannot help but decry
the inelegance of the metaphor chosen
by the president Of the United States.
However, he goes on to make a plea for
the Battle Hymn of the Republic"
which he says is the finest and best
battle hymn possessed by any nation in
the world; hymn that in loftiness of
thought and expression, in both words
and tune, lends itself to choral singing
as no other battle hymn does in this
country. = : : There is not single line
in the hymn, not word that arouses an
unpleasant thought in the mind of any
American
And SO he proposes the Battle Hymn
of the Republic" to be adopted by the
people Of the country as their national
hymn, and makes the proposition to the
southern people first.
1t was a wise philosopher who said,
& ''Let me write the songs of the people
and care not who makes the laws, ="
for that was a recognition of the fact
that the songs of nation are express
i've in great degree Of the heart and
soul of that nation. It matters not
what be the words of Dixie there
is something in the tune of it to thrill
the heart and to make the American
pulse tingle in response. So far as the
heart of the American people has been
expressed, Dixie is and probably
always will be the one tune adopted as
the national air.

AS TO ROUGE

A number of scientists are seeking to
determine whether there is ever any
sufficinet reason why woman should
use rouge. They are very much divided
on the subject, and seem unlikely to
reach any definite determination in the
matter.
The problem is admittedly very diff
ficult. History furnishes no answer that
may be depended upon with certainty.
Helen of Troy may have used rouge,
though it is not so recorded. Good
Queen Bess may not have used 1t,
though history AYERS she did copiously.
Perhaps Cleopatra didn't; it is reason
ably sure Nine. de Pompadour did. And
so on--you cannot find jumping off
place to save your life, so far as the
past is concerned; you are hopelessly at
sea if you seek to unravel the trouble
by invoking living specimens the which

REFLECTIONS OF A
BACHELOR GIRL

The average man looks on matri-
mony as hitching post where
he can tie woman and leave her
until he comes home nights.
There is nothing so uninteresting
to a man as contentedly married
woman.
A man 3 sweethearts are like his
cigars; he has many of each of
them, loves each one as tenderly as
the preceding, and appreciates each
according to its expensiveness.
A husband can always find fault
with his wife, but, then, even arch
angels could pick flaws in one an
other If they had to drink coffee at
the same table every morning.
Matrimony is like the weather,
mighty uncertain, and the happiest
people are those who are neither
looking for storms nor banking on
sunshine, but are just willing to go
along sensibly and take what comes.
1t may mean nothing, but it's
very notifying to woman when
she takes her husband s dog for a
walk and he tries TO go into every
/ corner saloon.

under bushel than to keep your
shady side dark.

the case of Bcroa College versus the
State of Kentucky faVorahly to the
State, the Suprcm" Court Of the
United States to-day held that the
States of the Union may cunsti-
tutionally lcgislatc to prevent the

races.
The case was instituted to test the
validity of the State law of 1901
prohibiting white and black children
from attending the same schools.
The higher State court took the
position that the white and black
races ar" naturally antagonistiC,
and that the enforced separation Of
the children of the two is in the line
of the preservation of peace.
