The arrest and conviction of
John Sykes for "bootlegging
should teach a lesson to him if
not to others. Illicit liquor bus
mess is a serious and detestable
offense. Sykes has piled his ne
farious business for years, and
although he has been apprehend-
ed and tried many times, he has
continued his "bootlegging" bus
mess year after year with seem
ing impunity. 1t is to be hoped
that six months in the Detroit
house of correction will be a les
son to him, and that it may also
serve as a warning to others who
may have in the past, or who
may contemplate engaging in the
business.

THE True Northerner is pleased
to note the increased sentiment
in favor of temperance, not only
throughout the entire length and
breath of the United States, but
locally as well. The time is not
far distant when there will not
be droPo of liquor sold IN the
State of Michigan, and possibly
not in any state. Temperance
sentiment locally is stronger to-
day than ever before, and among
the improvements along that
line, comes the announcement
that the Charles Drug Co. will
discontinue the sale of liquor in
any form. Mr.. Charles has de-
cided to entirely eliminate the
liquor business from his store.
This is certainly a step in the
right direction.

of the state, while on January
1908 the number had increased
to the astounding number of
