sented providing for ten days debate under the

before late summer to be avatling- IL IS
their desire that all amendments be submitted

Church Rallies Are Illegal.

Judge Willis, of w. Virginia, in a re-
cent decision, has held that "church raf-
f1es" are violation of law, and those
who engage in them are just the same as
ordinary gamblers. Deputy States At
torney Eugene O'Dunne, of Baltimore
comedies, in the following opinion:
"lhe church rattle is illegal. All games
of chance are illegal, no matter whether
they are set up in church or not. They
are against the law. am prepared to
prosecute all such cases that may be in
dicted by the Grand Jury. The fact that
it is in a church does not make rattle
lawful. The only thing that saves them
is that raffles are usually given for a
charitable purpose, there being, suppos-
eddy, no element of personal gain con-
nected with them"
The Postal laws of the United States
forbid newspapers to publish the results
Of ratfes, or drawings, characterizing
such events as lotteries" and make no
distinction in favor of churches. 1t is
pretty clear, therefore, that CHANGING
off" articles, either by tickets or wheel
of fortune" are illegal, according to the
best legal authorities, and should be dis
continued.

Stand BY Your Town.

Whether you talk with your neighbor
or stranger at home or abroad riding or
walking always have good word for
your town. Speak of the beautiful homes,
the nice streets, the excellency of the
surrounding county and the intelligence
and enterprise of your neighbors. Stand
by your town thro' thick and thin as you
would stand by your best friend in times
of distress and you will find it prosperous
and thriving as never before. Register.
Yes, stand by your town, not for a
day or a week, but for all time and what
is more, let everyone do SO. Don't ''sit
on the fence" and sling mud at few
who are trying to help, and incidentally
are helping you. Thurmoat has her quo
ia of drones and winners" but that is
no excuse for not having progress. Don't
pay any attention to them. ED.
