THE VICE PRESIDENCY.
Ihe boom of Governor Cummings Of
Iowa, for the vice presidential nomina-
tlon was the distinctive feature of the
day in the contest for the second
place on the ticket and received n7uch
favorable consideration. Senator Bor-
an, of Idaho, who early this morning
started the agitation on behalf of the
| Iowa governor, spent much of the dav
sounding western delegations in his
behalf and at the close of the day an
nounced that he had found much en-
cOuragement. The mention of Cover
nor Cummin's name was received with
varying emotions by members of the
| Iowa delegation and it soon be- came
evident that in the event the gov-
ernors candidacy should be more en-
crgetically pressed, his Iowa support
would not be confined to the so-call-
ed Cummin's faction. Several All:son-
Dolllver adherants promptly announce
ed that as a matter of state pride if
for no other reason they would sup
port the governors candidacy. A nun

in order to control the various officers
charged with law enforcement. It is
against this that public sentiment has
become aroused.
II the brewers, are to swing public
opinion again to their side they must
first show that they will not support
the law breaking saloon. If they are
successful in various communities
against the anti-saloon movement
they must not let that success turn
their heads and fill them with the be-
lief that the people will again overlook
the fostering of the low dive. ON the
contrary, their actions in communities
that still tolerate the saloon will show
how much faith may be placed in their
sincerity by the people OF other com
munities to whom they have promised
the adjustment of the lawbreaking
saloon and low dive.

NEW CASTLE IS
VERY LENIENT
Allows Traction Ten Years in
Which to Pay.

New Castle, Ind, March 13-The
city council on the advice of the city
attorney, has declined to adopt a reso-
luton asked for by the Western con-
struction, to the effect that the waiver
filed by the l. n. C. & T. Traction
company in the paving of South
Twelfth street be declared null and
void. The construction company
claimed that the waiver was not filed
as required by law, but the council de-
cided that it had been and the trac-
ton company will be allowed the ten
year plan under which to pay the ex-
pense. which amounts to about
$4,000.
AS the traction company is now in
the hands of a receiver this amount
of ready money will prove of value
later on and the council believed it
should have the same rights as a pri-
vate individual. The action means
that the street paving company will
have to wait some time for its money.

TEST OF SINCERITY.

The coming year will mark an epoch
In tho war between the liquor interests
and the growing wave of prohibition.
Heretofore the former have contented
themselves with paying slight heed to
the prohibitionists and going their own
sweet way regardless. Today the
breweries and distilleries of the entire
country have formed a gigantic organ
fzation, the intention of which, SO it is
claimed, Ii to show with arguments,
based upon facts. born out by figures,
lust what a terrible loss would result
10 the nation were prohibition to be
put into effect. This new attitude of
the liquor interests is a pleasing sign
of the times. 1t shows that a realiza-
Ron has been borne home that the old
days of saloon dominance in politics
and open Haunting OF the law are no
lcnger going to be tolerated by the
people OF any community. There is
no doubt but that the people are tired
of such lawlessness and the vice it fos-
ters. All over the country public SEN
iiment, apparently outraged beyond all
restraint, is driving the saloon not on
ly out of entire communities, but also
out of entire states. This is being ac-
complished not by the prohibitionicts,
but by the every day members of both
the republican and democratic parties
who have been driven to utter ex-
tremes in order to blot out the lawless
saloon.
While we do not believe in the ulti-
mate success OF prohibition we also
have no sympathy for the liquor inter
ests. They have brought all their va
rious troubles on themselves by their
short-sighted, public-b be damned policy.
In most of the states where the anti
saloon movement is constantly grow
ing in strength, there would have been
no such movement had not the grea
majority of saloons persisted in ignor
ing the closing laws and, to securt
themselves in their open disregard TO
the sentiment of the community, be
