eETTING Sadly HiTa

The liquor business continues to re-
ceiye hard body blows, and they are
given from all directions The South
ern States keep on passing prohibition
laws or in strengthening those already
in existence. In other States county
and other local option laws are also
making themselves felt. The result Of
i all is diminished consumption OF
liquor, as the decreased internal
revenue returns clearly show.
The same story comes from other
lands. The revenue from liquor has
dropped considerably in Great Britain,
and now an interesting fact comes
from Germany. That country has in
creased largely the tax on beer. The
brewers and retail sellers have sought
to recoup themselves by raising the
price, and here is the result in KEEL:
In the government dockyard Of that
city the 5000 workmen were accustom-
ed to drink 1900 bottles of beer
every day. These workmen resented
the increased tax and turned to milk,
coffee and mineral waters, and as one
result the 10000 daily bottles OF beer
have fallen to 800 Another result
is better work and far less loss Of time
by the workmen.

RATHER Than SURRENDER !
BANDIT COMMITS SUICIDE
FaShiOnably- Dressed Man Forced Bank EmDlove,t
Stand Aside While He Secured Funds,

CHICAGO, oct. IA fashIonably-
dressed bandit who early yesterday af-
ternoon robbed the savings bank of
ID. NJ. Erskine & Co. in Highland
Park, Ill, an aristocratic suburb on
the lakeshore, twenty-five miles north
of Chicago. committed suicide by
shooting himself in the mouth when
driven to bay by the Highland Park
marshal and a posse Of citizens.
A companion Of the fobber, who hao
driven him to the bank in an auto
mobile, was captured Immediately
following the robbery. forcing the prin-
cipal perpetrator Of the daring day
light crime to fee on foot. He was
engaged in a running duel with Town
Marshal John Sheehan, who was the
target for many bullets from the fugi-
tive's revolver, one of which went
through the sleeve of his coat. After
running several blocks and failing to
drive back his pursuers, the robber ran
into a shed closely followed by Shee-
han. When he saw Sheehan in the
shed with his revolver leveled at his
head, the fugitive put the muzzle of
his own revolver In his mouth and
fred shot which resulted in his
death Immediately. The identity of
the dead man and his companion is
unknown
The robbery was conducted In de-
liberate and spectacular manner, the
bandit securing about $500 in gold
coin and bills after he had forced
John G. Duffy, cashier Of the bank, into
the cashiers cage just after the clos
ing of business for the day.
"Call everyone in here into that
cage. or I'll blow your head on. Hur-

NovEmsER ELECTIONS.

Governors or minor officers will be
elected in ten States early in Norem-
her the elections occurring on either
the second or the sixth Of the month.
Only a few OF them win have import
ance. however, in a political way. The
election in Massachusetts will be in
teresting. although the element Of
doubt will not be present to any
great extent. This State gave Bryan
t55.54S votes, Taft 1896, Yahey
1s1 1852 and Draper 1881 in 1908.
IL is not likely that the Republican
majorIties will disappear next month.
Rhode Island is uncertain enough
IN these days to make it fruitful
subject Of speculation. Taft carried It
m 1908 by a majority Of 10000. and
Potbier, the Republican candidate for
Governor, by 1000.
Because Of the interest which the
national administration is taking In
the campaign in Maryland and Virgin
la, these are attracting a great deal
OF attention. Members Of the cabi-
net, It is announced, will speak In
both States. President Tafts utter
ances with relation to the principal
issue in Maryland "a constitutional
amendment) having been made In
Boston IN the first instance, and at
the beginning of his present tour, are
familiar. The Republican candidate,
Kent, is making strong fight for
the Goyernorship of Virginia He Is
an advocate Of local option, while his
opponent, Mann, is Statewide prohi-
bitionist. Virginia has been tending
toward the doubtful column for some
years past. When the full vote Is
called out the Democrats have not
nearly such a large margin as former
~. The present Democratic Governor,
Swanson, was elected by majority
of $4,000, but Bryan carried the State
by only 10000 In 1898. AT present
the liquor issue is leading to a new
alignment
It Is worthy OF mention and OF
remembrance that the elections in
Maryland and Virginia next month
will be the first held in the South
since President Taft entered on his
policy Of Cancellation. For this, among
other reasons. the result viii be look
ed forward to with great interest.
