Prohibition on Trial in Michigan
Saginaw (Michigan) News

Saginaw (Michgan) News
Prohibition on an extensive scale is on
trial in Michigan for the first time in it's
history. Ten counties have through the local
option act BARRED out saloons entirely. In
other cities and counties, the number has
been considerably reduced under a variety
of circumstances. In every portion of the
state more stringent enforcement of the
liquor laws is being imposed. In several
instances this regulation has driven out of
business many saloons, usually of the least
desirable class. The solution of the liquor
problem is therefore proceeding along two
lines in Michigan at present. There is the
totally dry territory, which covers ten
pletely banished, and there is much larger
territory where the saloon has been placed
under regulation of more or less thorough
ness, according to the prevailing sentiment
and customs of the people. In the balance
of the state, which is larger than either
the ''dry" or regulated territory, little or
nothing has been done toward the suppress
sion of the liquor business conditions re-
main as they have existed for many years.
The major portion of the state, conse-
quently occupies the position of an un-
prejudiced spectator, watching concur
rent experiments dealing with the drink
problem along two widely divergent lines.
The prohibitionists are wholly dissatisfied
with strict regulation They look upon it
as compromising with the enemy. Nothing
short of total abolition of the saloon will
satify them. The regulationists " do not
believe it is practical to annihilate the sa-
loon in one fell swoop. They contend that
statutes of this character are evaded and
that secret traffic in liquor which is carried
on only tends to bring the law into disre-
pute and to aggravate the drink evil in it's
worse forms. In addition to the alleged
impracticability of absolute prohibition, it
is also claimed that business is injured and
that the loss of revenue from liquor licen-
ses is burden which few cities under pres
ent methods of raising revenue are able to
shoulder.
Probably neither side will ever convince
the other that it is right. Prohibition has
been in force in some states for many
years and the people appear to be satisfied
with the results. Probably the character
and customs Of the substantial, governing
classes have much to do with the success
or failure of prohibition. In Michigan the
trial is experimental, and it remains to be
seen what the people in those counties
where the saloon has just been banished
will have to say about the matter year or
two years hence. AS a general proposition
however, there appears to be little doubt
that control of the liquor traffic through ed
ucation and conservative legislation will
work out the problem to better advantage
than through attempts at arbitrary abol-
ishment

POLITICAL POT PIE

The fight prectpitated in the late King
county Republican convention by the alleged
friends of Senator Piles, which resulted IN
having the delegates in convention assem-
BILE going out of it's way to snub former Sen
ator John L. Wilson, was an uncalled for
breach Of political etiquette as well as con-
sistency, and will be the means of again
causing King county to be rent in political
factions. Mr. Wilson served twelve
years in one or the other branch of the
United States Congress and not having
been found guilty or even accused of hav-
ing committed any act that would besmirch
congressional toga, if for no other reason
was deserving of better treatment. but he
is the chief owner of the largest morning
paper in the state, which is unquestionably
the organ of the Republican party, and that
too, entitled him to even better treatment
1t is long lane that has no turn, and the
Pie-maker is inclined to think some of those
fellows that have been travelling that tract
on which sign has been stuck up at every
mile board that Wilson must be destroyed,
will soon reach the turning point of that
lane.
Jealous almost to insanity because it has
not been able to get a seat in the John L.
Wilson band wagon, the editor and the al
legged owner of the Georgetown Gazette
News devoted almost it's entire editorial
space last week to abusing Mr.. Wilson, the
P.-I and The SETATLE REPUBLICAN, which
latter paper intimated a couple of weeks
ago that the Gazette-News had been COB
bled up by that Ankeny mysterious person
age that is going about the state purchas-
ing weekly newspapers and sending politi
cal rot to those daily papers that will take
it. about the state dying to get another op-
portunity to send Senator Ankeny to the
senate again. The following from the
Georgetown Gazette-News will show the
state of mind the editor and the silent
stock holder are in:
''When Ex-senator John L. Wilson wants
to sling little mud which he deems be-
meath the dignity of the Post -Intelligencer,
he repairs to the editorial sanctum of
Darkest Africa" and through medium
published by his political slaves, pollutes the
public with political lobolly composed of
exageration and untruthfulness. John l..
Wilson has been dead one'' for 10, these
many years. -
.The leather colored editor of The SEAT
TIE REPUBLICAN has just discovered,
through John L. Wilson, that Levi P. Ank-
eny has purchased the GeorgetoWn Gazette
News. Wilson tells that REPUBLICAN man
something new every time he goes down to
change his political luck"
THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN knows about
as much who owns the Georgetown Gazette
News as hazel splitter hog knows about
the coveted land of spirits just over the
beautiful hills"
80 We are just plain folks and don't feel
like being called Doodle mongers by any
journalistic hambone polisher who clings
like crawish to the swaller' tails OF John
L. Wilson's political coat. Not So my eb-
orau h,1od f,.iorod ond nniohhnr. not co. the

business men could be induced to sign an
Ankeny iron-clad agreement IN order to Sc
cure the election of Samuel H. Piles to the
United States senate than the list publish
ed by the Times last Sunday, then the Pie
maker is of the opinion that the Times has
told just as big dam lie as it usually does,
and that the whole thing was manufacture
ed in the Times office by Murky Matt, DR..
J. ]. Smith and few others with that be-
witching face Of George Stevenson over
looking the whole. Not on an average Of
one in one hundred of the business men seem
to have signed it, and yet the one hundred
who did not sign it according to the Times
must be bound by the acts of the ONE,
which will hardly be done, and Ankeny will
lose King county,
If the circulars sent out by the Ankeny
howlers is a fac smile of the much talked
of iron clad agreement, which made King
county morally obliged to support Levi
Ankeny on account of the assistance he,
Ankeny, rendered King county in electing
Piles then one can readily understand why
it has not been given publicity long ere
this was too silly to be put in print.
All of that tommy rot was dug up at this
time by the owners Of the Times Tor no
other reason than to forestall Senator Ank-
eny's threat to start paper of his own in
Seattle which meant the loss Of good
many dollars to the Times. Not suspect
ing any such move on the part OF Ank-
eny the Times had ceased to be a ctive in
his reelection interest, but when the Ank-
eny daily newspaper talk became current,
Colonel Blethen was off for Washington in
jiffy, and then followed the political slush
the public has been served for the past
week or more. The Blethens are great
money getters, but the Georgetown Gazette
News seems to be troubled with the same
disease, and so far as Blethen and Carle
are concerned it's now 'hoss n boss. "
From the amount of squirming the
Georgetown Gazette News did in its last
issue, the truth must hurt. Of course w.
A. Carle does not own a dollars worth of
stock in the Gazette-News because that
paper has the contract for doing the city
printing at fabulous figure and Mr.. Carle
is a member of the city council, and it is
against the law for a member of city
council to let a contract to himself, hence
Carle ceases to be an active stockholder
and is now only a silent one. If Ankeny
money has not been used to grease the
wheels of the Gazette-News as well as it's
silent stockholder, the Hon. w. H. Carle,
and if the alleged owner of the paper is
not myth then THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN
is badly mistaken and it does not believe it
is.
There is no doubt but what the Piles
Ankeny sympathizers could have controlled
the late county convention even to the ex-
clusion of Hi Gill as chairman thereof, but
if they had have done so it would have pre-
cipitated fight that would have given the
public so ne idea just how strong the oppo-
sition is and they did not care to have that
shown up. The convention demonstrated

KUBEuK WRITES Of
A LADY PIANIST

Kubelik, the great violinist, who
charmed a Honolulu audience several
months ago while passing through the
city en- route to the Colonies, has writ
ten W. D. Adams of the Bergstrom
Music Company, that having changed
his plans he will not again pass through
Honolulu. In this letter he also pays
compliment to the artistic talent of
lady pianist who will pay a fleeting
visit here. A favorable criticism from
Kubelik places her in the front rank
of artists. His letter written at AIDE
laide, is as follows:
"My dear Mr.. Adams: Before leav-
ing Australia 1 want to tell You that
/ have decided to o-by the Mongolia
via Colombo and thus shall mot have
the great pleasure again to visit the
wonderful Honolulu. You wished nae
to come and play again, and I am very
sorry not being able to do so. But in
some years ] hope to go round the
world once more and then quite surely
via Honolulu. -.s-. .sss.,
at have met in Melbourne, Miss
Katherine Goodson, whom you know
from newspapers and whom I know to
be the finest lady pianist in Europe.
She will return to Europe by Honolulu,
being engaged for an extensive tour in
America
81 am sure it would be great treat
for the public in Honolulu to hear Miss
GoOdson play and if you wish to COM
municate with her, cable to her, Hotel
Menzies, Melbourne.
tWith kindest regards and best
wishes from myself and wife to yon
and Mrs. Adams,
81 am yours sincerely,
