He has no sinister motive in

The second ward has been
getting the worst of il for years,
Every saloon in Falls City is in
the second ward. Many voters
in the first ward who are sup
porting the saloon ticket would
vote otherwise mighty quick if
it meant the establishment of
saloons in his ward. So long as
the second ward has to endure
the traffic it's all right.
Isn't it about time for second
ward men to put an end to this
sort Of arrangement? If the
other wards wont have them
why should we of the second
ward be compelled to take them?

The promise is given on the
part Of a few individuals that
the third ward vii give one hun
dred majority against the anti
saloon ticket. How the good
citizens OF this ward feel about
having their votes cast for them
is yet to be learned. Those who
so boastingly make this agree
ment are not actuated by a de
sire to sec the law enforced. but
are doing SO from a belief that
it is their inalienable right TO
violate the law. The arrogance
of such elements has driven
many men into the anti saloon
ranks.
We do not say that all men
who oppose the anti.salo 90 n
ticket are in favor OF law-break.
ing, but we do say that some of
the men who are intending to
cast the third ward so unani-
mously for the saloon ticket are
doing it in the hope and belief
that they will be permitted to
follow an avocation not permit
ted by the laws of this state.

men who believe everything cen.
