SPECTACULAR BLAZE
Entire Minneapolis Fire Depart
ment Battles With Flames.
LOSS ESTIMATED AT $685. 600
Situation So Serious at One Time ST
Paul Department Was Notified
to Be in Readiness.

Putting up one of the hardest and
most spectacular fights that has been
waged against fire in Minneapolis for
tied for two hours to save the block
Of commercial buildings on Third ave-
nue. north between Fourth and Fifth
streets, occupied by a number of
wholesale firms
At one time the flames gained such
Roadway that the st. Paul fire depart
ment was called upon to be in readi-
ness to respond to an emergency call
from Minneapolis, but this proved I'M
necessary and the fire at last was
confined to the row in which it orig
mated. The loss is estimated at
$163 900, with insurance amounting to
about $13S,OOO
During the worst of the fire Chief
Canterbury ordered the greater part
of his force into the Northern Manu-
featuring company's building, which
was separated from the burning struc-
ture by only fire wall, and for more
than an hour 200 men occupied the
various floors, fighting to keep the
| flames from gaining a foothold. Their
efforts were successful and the fire
was placed under control.
! The fire originated in some straw
stock in the rear of that portion of
the buildings occupied by the Bibb
| Broom company. It ate it's way to the
elevator shaft and from there swept
to the upper floors and the roof and
! by the time the fire department got to
work the entire Ford building was a
mass of fares.
| The spectacular effect was greatly
| heightened by the breaking of the
flames from the upper part of the
structures and the height at which the
| fire had to be fought also added mate
rally to the danger of the iremen.
The buildings which were destroyed
were all fOur-story structures of brick
and the fire made its way so complete
Iy through them that there was nc
chance of saving any of the stock to
speak Of In almost every case the

ing loss of $125,OO0 The loss
is covered by insurance. Sherman
Moors aud Alex MILAN, employed in

from death soon after the fire started
They attempted to extinguish the
blaze with chemicals and while SO en-

impossible for them to extinguish the
fire they raced for their lives through

were burned about the face and hands.
The fire went from the second floor

THE ENEMY's GROWING POWER

The statistical article which appears upon
page in this paper deals with the striking
anomaly that for years has puzzled many
Prohibition workers.
We are not sure that anyone is as yet in
position to offer satisfactory explanation
Of the constant growth of the liquor traffic
in the face of the constant cutting-down
OF territory in which it is lawful to sell liquor
and the constant enlightenment of the people
upon the pernicious results of the liquor
habit. In any event, we are not now Sc
much concerned with an attempt to explain
this situation as with the application of its
lesson.
It seems to us that these figures teach, as
clearly as anything can be taught, that the
kind of Prohibition which we have had up
to the present time is not cure for the drink
evil and does not even approach cure. We
are frequently told that many millions, a
third, perhaps a half, Of the population Of
the United States Give under Prohibition"
The statement is true only in very modi-
fled sense, and the showing of the article in
question emphasizes its lack of exactness.
In strict fact, no part of the United States
today has real Prohibition The sale of
liquor is forbidden in certain sections: the
manufacture of liquor is also forbidden
within limited areas The forbidding is
made good, so far as the manufacturer is
concerned, in the greater part of the So
called Prohibition territory, and we begin

ILLINOIS SPLENDID WORK

Last week this paper placed before its
readers a resume of the work of the state
committee of the Prohibition party in Hi
nois, measured by financial receipts and ex-
penditures. The showing was both startling
and gratifying. The committee raised and
expended in excess Of $4,000. That state
ment speaks volumes, both for the Prohibi-
tionists of the state of Illinois and for the
state committee and it's head, Chairman
ALoNzo E. WILSON.
This week we place before our readers
financial statement which ought to be con-
sidered in close connection with that pre-
scented last week, namely, the December re-
port of the secretary of the Cook county COM
mittee. It must be known that in Illinois
by far the greater part of the receipts and
expenditures of the state committee proper
have to do with the work outside of Cook
county, in which the city of Chicago is sit
uated, and this county maintains it's own
corps of paid workers and carries on it's
own propaganda. The statement published
elsewhere, shows that, in cash and pledges,
during the year 1902, the Prohibition COM
mittee of Cook county has secured support
to the extent Of 81, 111.0O, and that in actual
cash the total collections have reached $3.50.
In other words, the two committees that
conduct the work in the state of Illinois
have received and expended during the year
$52,543.99.
We unhesitatingly express our opinion
that in all the history of the Prohibition
movement, no state of the Union has ever.
made an equal financial showing, and we
prophecy that the results which will be
achieved in the coming year will justify the
nvncnditure

OUR BLOOD-BUILT NAVY


At the top Of it's first page the Champion
of Fair Play, the Chicago periodical that is
the mouthpiece of the liquor traffic, prints
in type larger than anything used in this
paper, across the full page, the following
statement:
"The pride of the American navy, that left
for the Pacific ocean last Wednesday, was
built and equipped from the taxes paid by the
liquor interests of this country-dont forget
that fact
Perhaps we ought to thank the Champion
for thrusting that fact SO prominently in
our faces. We ought to give it considera-
ton, both because, while fact it is, it is also
falsehood, and because, as fact, it is ma
tional menace.
We speak of it as a falsehood, for it is a
Misrepresentation amounting to lie There
is vast difference between the taxes paid
by honest industry and the price of blood
that the liquor interests grudgingly part
with for the sake of continued lease of life.
The farmer pays his taxes and it represents
the fruit of honest industry gathered from
the soil, tithed for public uses, while the
mass of it goes to produce comfort and well
fare among many. The man in legitimate
business pays his taxes and it represents in
dustry, frugality, honesty and ability, act
ing along lines that are for public welfare
and private profit.
But the liquor interest pays its tax, and
that tax is miserable pittance, out from
the enormous mass of blood-money that it
has wrung from ruined lives, broken hearts
and blighted hopes Not one dollar of all
the millions that the liquor business pays
into the nations Golfers, or of all the innum-
cradle millions more that the brewer and the
distiller and dealer pile up in their pie
thoric bank accounts, expend in their gor-
geous palaces or waste in their own debauch-
eries-not one dollar of it all comes into
their hands by any other process than an
economic robbery, behind which there are
suffering and shame unspeakable.
