TWO SIDES TO The QUESTION.

The American Issue, the organ of the
National Anti-Saloon League, quotes,
with approval, an article from Col.
VIM. J. Bryan's Commoner, which Sc
verely criticises the Republican party
for the non-passage of law toprohibit
the issue of United States licenses for
the sale of liquor in localities in which
such sale is prohibited by State laws
This is decidedly a one-sided view of
the subject. There is another view of
it, however, from which it can reason
ably be seen that, instead of stimulating
the illicit sale of liquor in prohibited
territory, such licenses can be made a
means gilmore strictly enforcing the
State prohibitory laws.
The licenses in question are not issued
in secret. Local officials are not left in
ignorance when such licenses are held
by persons in their territory, and their
possession should be a sufficient warn
ing that their possessors are violators
of laws prohibiting the sale of liquor in
such territory. In fact they may fairly
be considered an advertisement to the
public that their possessors are setting
State laws at defiance.
But they do not authorize the viola
ton OF these laws. They are issued
subject to these laws and cannot be
pleaded in eXtenuation of their viola
ton. If, therefore, the local authorities
are in earnest in their efforts to enforce
the laws the licenses furnish them a
valuable means of ascertaining who are
guilty OF their violation.
Unfortunately, in too many instances,
energetic efforts to detect violations of
prohlbltorY laws are wanting. But
federal laws cannot be violated with
IMMUNITY and hence those, who intend
to engage in illicit selling, in defiance of
State laws, take no such risks against
federal statutes.
There is still another view of the sub
ject which should be a commentator
instead of condemnation of the fed
eral government for issuing licenses of
the character in question. 1t is within
the power of the State to make the
possession of such licenses proof, prima
facie, of the guilt of their possessors
and thus throw the onus of proving in
nOcence upon the accused. The State
and not the federal government, there
fore, is to be condemned for not maxi
ing use of the means the latter affords
Of enforcing prohibitory laws.

SCIENTIFIC FARMING.

In the coming four months the condi-
tion Of crops and their estimated pro-
duction will constitute the basis of many
business operations, and if they end
with good average production the pros
perity of the country will receive
great stimulus.
In this connection it must be borne in
mind that for the last ten years, and
more particularly for the last five years,
the intensive farming system has borne
great results, and through a vast area
of our country the latest thoughts and
ideas as to cultivation have been given
TO our farmers through national, State,
agricultural society and transportation
company aid.
In nearly every State and territory
this new thought, this intelligence based
upon experience, this information up
held by fact, has taken hold of our
agricultural communities, and the ag-
gregate result in increased production
OF the country will, without doubt, be
very great.
During the past five years this work
Of education, this demonstration of the
ability of the tillers of the soil to obtain

knowledge and the careful training of

get out of the State He would lose a
very respectable number of good citizens
who may be foolish and yet who cannot
help believing the evidence of their
senses and who are not prepared to fly
in the face of the rules of addition and

ing that if $4,000 or 10000 voters are
taken away from one party that party
will have $4,000 or 80, 600 less voters
than it had before.
When we pause to think of the gene
sis of this amendment; when we con-
slider that the Democratic party now
has the power to write on the statute
books any good law it sees fit; and when
we note, who are most jealous in sup
port of the amendment, we can find a
large mantle of charity to throw over
those benighted souls who cannot bring
themselves to believe that machine
which finds it so difficult to keep straight
when it has a small majority in the
State will become purified the moment
it has a majority three or four times as
large.
If anybody is to be consigned to outer
darkness, should it not be some of those
who preach that $40. 600 white men can
not give the State of MARYLAND the sort
of government it ought to have because
so, 900 black men happen to be here?
