of the majority of the people, as you
pledged yourself to do.
A mayor or a city of the size Of
North Yakima who cannot practically
prohibit the sale of nquor, almost en-
tirely, with the majority Of the peo-
pie behind him is not fitted for any
Office where public trust is at stake
How a man of your calibre and
confessed weakness expects to get
any support in the future for such
ambitions as congressman, etc, is be-
yond public comprehension Don't
you know that the FARMER is the man
that makes this city? Also that the
farmers are all dry men. as a whole.
and that they will surely have to be
reckoned with? Local option is not
an impulse that will soon pass away.
as some few think, but it will last I'M
til every saloon will go. 1t cannot be
stopped.
Why do you boiler for saloon reg
ulation when even the saloon men
themselves say it is impossible?
If you can regulate. then you can
drive out just as easy.
This little essay, or diplomatic
cocktail of yours composed of one
of the ten commandments, kindness
(pretended) and the city's iniquity
does not taste good to the voting pub
lie.
To say that this election is ILL
timed is only another of your evasive
ways to get out easy, for by this you
admit that it ough> to come some
time and while the loss of $4,000 Is
something, yet a dry town for one
year will show this amount made up
in the ways explained in every local
option speech lately made and would
be worth twice that amount to the
taxpayers of this community
Have you stopped to think how
much money is dumped into these
saloons in order that $4,000 license
might go to the city? And do you
know that the poor man is the one
that pays this great amount and not
the man that can afford to spend it?
Do you call taking bread out of the
poor mans mouth by this indirect
method to run the city government.
so Gas you Think to lessen the rich
mans taxes in the city and imposing
heavier taxes on the farmer to pros
ecute the city's criminals, do you call
this good government?
Do you call a city prosperous when
it's saloons are impoverishing one
half of the people to benefit the other
half? Would not the community be
worth more with this poor mans
money invested in homes, clothes. etc.
and he could pay some real taxes
himself?
You cannot scare the laboring man
any longer-he knows that II the
saloons are not here they will not
tempt him, and he also knows Of the
experience of other dry towns, such
as Wenatchee, Wash, and PendletOn
and LIE Grande, Ore, that he gets
wore work then than before, and
that a dry town means a clean, heal
thy. evenly-balanced community. The
following is an extract from the
Spokesman-Review of December 18th,
1909, which alone ought to explode
all such rot and nonsense Of that
bloodsucking boomerang of a $4,000
license that extracts treble every year
this amount of the city's and COM
munity's real wealth. gain, mayor.
say, have moral courage and back
bone, if you would reach the goal Of
your ambitions. for the American sa-
loon has never made any man great.

To Civic Federation:
In his eagerness TO reciprocate for
his lection by the saloons of the city,
the mayor by his unwise statements in
the Republic puts himself in an en-
barrassing position before the peo-
pie who have just elected him, when
he doubts his abili ! to enforce the
law. according to the wishes of the
majority of the people.
Does he not know that such utter
ances. especially from the mayor him
self, only encourages bootlegging and
other illegal methods of opposition to
keeping a dry town. Does he not
know that where public sentiment is
strong enough to vo.e a town dry
that it is strong enough to keep it
dry"
Does he not know that under the
new penal code that it is against the
law for any distiller or brewer or
anyone to snip liquors into dry terri
tory?
Does he not know that there is not
a law existing that prohibits you do
ing anything unless public sentiment
on that subject is strong enough to
enforce it? And then does not en-
tirely prohibit?
The facts are that the mayor has
been reading some old worn out lit
erature that has been given to him
by a certain element Cor has other
wise come his way) statistics of
some towns that went dry several
years ago by reason of the county
voting dry or the state, and at such
time when public sentiment was
very weak IN that town or city against
the saloons, and has trumped up the
old time honored, caloused gag of
nstional prohibition to throw the peo-
pie off the real issue. If he will only
stop and think for a minute that this
would be even more of an impossible
ity than before by reason of certain
localities, states, counties or towns
wanting prohibition, and law or not
law the people will not have what the
majority does not want.
Now, Mr.. Armbruster, your promise
to serve the people demands that you
enforce the wishes of the majority of
the people and you knew when you
;al for office the last time that local
option would soon be- an issue to be
yoted upon and that There was a good
and now that you see the tide is flow
chance that the city would go dry,
ing that way you set weak at the
knees and practically acknowledge
your inability to enforce the wishes

NEW YORK. Dec. 1S.-Cook' 3
close friends said tonight that the
doctor previous to dispatching the po-
lar data to the university at Copenha-
gen had written in private to Rector
Torp informing him that in the event
of an adverse decision being made DR.
Cook would not appeal from the find
ings.
His instrum ents and three docu-
ments important to his case. Cook
pointed out in the letter, are still at
Etah. and he thought it possible that
in view of the fact that all evidence
was not in, the university might find
the Scoth verdict mot proven"
I'm such an event" the doctor
wrote he would fit out an expedition
and go to Greenland next summer
and bring back his complete records
and instruments.
There is a rumor tonight that Cook
is within SO hours journey of Copen-
hagen ready to appear personally If
his presence Is desired.

After a restful day the patient was
able to sleep for a brief period in the
evening and the night passed quietly
Toward two o'clock alarming SYM

complained that he felt suffocating
symptoms and physicians were imme-

thing possible to prolong life, but
without avail. The end came quickly
and after a spell of weakness the king
passed peacefully away.
His Successor Comes.
Prince Albert arrived at the death

accompanied by the Princess Clemen-

ministers were notified. The first of

gracious. He has a frank good natur-

and invites confidence. He is demo-
cratic In tastes and manners, but
