Significance of the Alabama Elec-
ton.

One of the striking features of the
election in Alabama, at which a pro-
hlbltlon amer dment TO the state con-
stitution was emphatically rejected,
was the fact that the vote cast repre-
sented the best class, or at least the
well-to-do class of citizens. This re-
suited from peculiar condition
growing out of the states law which
provides that only men who have
paid their poll tax are allowed to
vote. AS no regular election was
scheduled for 1909, less than 100000
men in a state with a population of
nearly 100000 had qualified as
voters by paying the poll tax. The
advocates of the prohibition amend.
ment hailed this situation with salts
faction, believing that the laboring
classes, the negroes who were entitled
to the franchise and the nonproperty
holding citizens, who naturally would
be expected to oppose the amendment
would be denied the right to vote and
make victory sure for the prohibit
tionists. The result leaves the pro-
hlbjtiOnists no room for complaint
that they were defeated by an igno-
rant, vicious or purchased vote.
Their defeat came from the ranks of
their supposed friends.
Friends of temperance, looking for
the real cause of the defeat of the con-
stitutional amendment, unquestionab-
ly may lind it in the protest of the
people of the state against the ex-
tremes advocated by the amendment
supporters in their plans for further
sumptuary legislation. With state
wide prohibition law already on the
statute books, the radical prohibit
tionists proposed to enact laws pre-
venting citizens from keeping liquor
in their homes, even though they
should make no effort to sell the
beverages or to give them away. This
with other provisions rigidly in
fringing upon the personal rights of
citizens, created an opposition that
led to the defeat of the amendment.
While the issue was befogged some
what by political conditions, the vote
against the amendment, both in the
cities and in the rural districts, was
SO emphatic that no room is left for
doubt that the ultra rohibitionists
have received a decided setback

Quoted under the auspices of the Anti
Tuberculosis Society, which has taken
up the crusade against the so called
"White Plague. tuberculosis is the
most dreaded decease in the world and

the numbers are due to tuberculosis.

die from tuberculosis. 1t is cureable
and preventable. This White Plague
has been stamped out in Denmark
and deaths from it will soon become
as rare in this country as deaths from
diphtheria, smallpox, etc. Certain
things are necessary, however, to &C.

Society has joined hands with the
Anti-Tuberculosis League to fight the
plague by placing on sale millions of
Red Cross Xmas Stamps. They cost
penny each and may be purchased

The motion for new trial in the
case of VIM. Schneider, convicted of
the murder of Frank Massapust, for
merly of West Newton, was denied by
Judge 81. B. Dibell Of the st. Louis
county district court. The case was
tried before two juries and each time
verdict of guilty of murder in the
first degree was returned. About
year before the crime was committed
Frank Massapust went from his home
in West Newton township and settled
on claim near Duluth where on the
night Of Feb. 8, 1908 he was found
with head, arms and legs burned
away from the charred trunk of his
body. After the finding of his body
relatives caused an investigation to
be made and the arrest of Schneider
followed. The trial of Schneider
proved the murder of Massapust a
carefully planned and deliberately
carried out shooting down of q man
for his money and the burning of his
cabin to conceal the crime.

A Great Possession of the People.

Uncle Sans ability to give us all
farm is one of the national traditions.
But the sense of ownership is not as
clearly defined as it ought to be, says
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.-If a
citizen owns land in his private right
and places it in the hands OF an agent,
the statements from time to time are
scanned with close interest. How
many are there who thus examine the
annual reports of the secretary of the
interior, as far as it touches the
public lands still owned by the people
of the whole country, and offering
them opportunities to acquire pro-
perty on terms that are substantially
gift? The public lands are not what
they used to be in quantity, but the
aggregate is still large, and new
methods of conserving them increase
their value and availability. Ac-
cording to Secretary Ballinger's re-
port, about to be submitted to Con-
gress, the National Government
owned over LOCO. 200, 600 acres of land
in 1860, and that was before the pur-
chase of Alaska. comprising 1868, O00,-
600. Now the billion acres of 1860 has
decreased to 731, 000, 900, and this, out
side of Indian reservations, is chiefly
composed of mountain lands or arid
or semi-arid plains.
But this remainder, rightly handled
for the benefit of all the people, can
be made an estate of enduring rich
ness. Nor is the amount small, for
Alaska alone would give IN average
of four acres to every man, woman
and child. Within few years an
other element has entered into the
case, and this is included in the gen.
leral term. conservation. What
Secretary Ballinger has to say on
this point deserves the earnest atten-
ton OF the people OF the United States
and the intelligent action Of Congress
without needless delay. It is pro-
posed to classify the lands according

No mental revolution can be
achieved without more or less lacera-
: tion. Be it a change of habit or a
change of conviction, it must, if the
conviction or habit be strong, do
violence to some of the feelings; and
these must of course oppose it. For
long-experienced, and therefore def
mite, sources of satisfaction have to
he substituted sources of satisfaction
that have not been experienced, and
ARE therefore indefinite. That which
lis relatively we'll known and real has
TO be given up for that which IS rela.
lively unknown and ideal. And Of
course such an exchange can not be
made without a conflict involving
pain. Herbert Spencer.
