GENERAL ADVERTISING
Local Option Working Out Salts
factorily

The local option law, enacted by
the legislature of Washington at its
last regular session, is working out
words. the advocates of local option,
in connection with high license, are
having their theories endorsed.
One Of the greatest supports which
high license can have is the right of
every community organized into a
municipality, or a township, to say
whether or not q saloon shall exist
in its midst, without regard to what
outsiders may think on the subject.
Since the law was enacted three
townships, or cities have voted ON
the question Of local option, and in
every instance the saloon has been
defeated.
On August 14th the town of Cash
mere in Chelan county, east of the
Cascades, voted Is to A to expel the
saloOn,-and Rockford, in Spokane
county, did the same thing by vote
of "a to ST.
On Tuesday the city of Puyallup
in a total vote of 706, exeplled the
saloon by a vote of 6S majority.
1t is just this right on the part of
the people living in communities
which cannot maintain a sufficient
police force to regulate the sale of
liquor to determine local option that
works out satisfactorily to the people.
1t doesn't make continental diff
ference" to the patrons of saloons
whether they can buy liquor in Cash
mere, so long as they can go down
to Wenatchee, where the probabili-
ties are that local option will favor
the saloons.
1t doesn't matter pinch Of snuff"
to the patrons of liquor whether a
saloon operates in Rockford, when
everybody who thinks he must have
a drink can easily get to the city of
Spokane and get it.
In like manner it doesn't matter
to the patrons of alcohol in Puyallup,
whether they buy their liquor in that
burg or run over to Tacoma, nine
miles away, and secure what they
want there.
It is that very condition that pre-
vents widespread prohibition by law
which has always proved failure
| wherever adopted.-Seattle Times,
Aug. 20.

IMPRISONED AMID ICE

STRANGE AND PECULIAR Elk.
PERIENcE OF A LINER IN
MID OCEAN.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Brit.
ish steamer Volturno which arrived
here yesterday, had a remarkable ex.
perience with icebergs in mid-At-
lantic. At 3 a. m. on Sunday MAJ
9, Captain James Harrison found that
his vessel, which carried 200 passen-
gers and a large consignment of
freight from England, was complete
ly surrounded by icebergs and ice
foes. The engines were slowed down
and at daylight the Volturno was 50
completely hemmed in that the en-
glnes were stopped and all of Sunray
the vessel drifted as prisoner with
the ice.
At times there was a great danger
OF the giant icebergs crushing the
ship between them, but Captain Har.
rison found himself unable to do anv-
thing because the ice completely sur
rounded him. A wind sprang IN
early Monday morning, making
channel through the ice and the Vol
turno quickly sped out of this and
liberated herself.

COAL STRIKE IMPROBABLE.

1t is reported that we will not
have coal strike after all. The var
ious conferences between the opera
tors on the one hand and the miners
on the other have resulted, according
to the published statements, in the
complete rejection Of each and every
one of the miners demands. The
labor organization began the contro-
versy with number Of proposed
agreements. Each conference result
ed in the surrendering of one or more
until finally the situation resulted in
one solitary demand-the recognition
of the union. The operators stead
fastly held to their original PROPOSE
ton, which was to continue the agree
ment arranged by the Anthracite
Coal Strike Commission. It is claim
ed, and not without reason, that this
wage scale, determined during a
period of national prosperity, really
means an increase Of wages when
maintained during financial depres-
sion such as the country has exper-
fenced since the latter part of 1907.
There is little doubt that the coal
miners have been fortunate in the
matter of high wages, and their ef-
forts to create a labor agitation at
this time has not been viewed with
sympathy by the general public. =
