CANNOT WAIT

The people of Ohio have hoped
that the temperance question was
settled for a while and that the
general assembly would now be Civ
en- opportunity to get to work on
some of the other important ques-
tions of the day, but that hope has
ibeen shattered. 1t is announced that
the liquor people are going to en-
deavor to put a stop to the temper
ance wave, by securing ONE rene
dial legislation and the anti-saloon
people are to fasten more closely the
victory they have won.
The Rose law has been effective
only since the first of last Septem-
Der, and it has not been proven
whether or not 1t is good meas
ure. 1t would seem the better part
of generalship upon both sides to al
low the question to rest until the
efficacy or deficiency OF the law Is
proven. If it be a good law, then
the temperance people will have no
difficulty in securing Llore radical
law and if it is deficient in its OPP
Grafton then the liquor people will
experience no trouble IN having it
repealed. The secret of the whole
thing now lies in the hands of the
executive officers. The mayors of
the cities have the most to do with
proving the new law. A rigid en-
forcement, such as has been attempt
ed and carried out with degree OF
success by Marions mayor Of all OF
the provisions Of the law will soon
prove whether it is deficient in any
particular and whether it is a law
which the people want.
