REVIEW 0E the ROSE
DICKlE PROHIBITION
DEBATE.

&gHatH5 Ea2SSt#
David S. Rose, Of Milwaukee,
and President Samuel Dickie, Of
Albion College, Michigan, on the sub-
ject Of Prohibition. is attracting
wide attention IN the middle west.
They are both forcible speakers,
and each is regarded as a champion
by the partisans Of his side. Each
speaker is trying 70 prove that the
the Catholic Church fayors his side
Of the argument.
AT the Chicago debate, April 80,
Mr.. Diekie brought out the following
points. Employers Of al kinds have
learned BY experience that Che mod
ern drinker is not to be trusted. In
confirmation Of this the U. s. De-
partment Of Labor has found that
80 per cent of railways, 70 per cent
of manufactures, 88 per cent Of
trades and "a per cent Of agricuL
tnrists discriminate against employ
ees who use i~ntoxicants as a beYer-.
age. Public sentiment favors pro-
hibition, and most shurches put q.
black mark on the liquor traffic; the
Third Plenary Council Of Baltimore
urged Catholics to get out Of the
saloon business. Finally Mr.. Dickie.
maintained that the saloon. By its
constant manipulation Of politics,
had become a danger and a menace
to the whole country.
Mayor Rose argued that prohibi-
tionists are illusionists and sensa-
tionalists. He stated that New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, Michigan,
Iowa and Nebraska had adopted pro-
hibition, and afterwards wiped it off
the statute books. In New York,
Indiana and Wisconsin, prohlbitory
laws had been passed and found un-
constitutional. The only two States
that have clung to the fantasy for.
any time are Maine and Kansas, and
in Maine the record Of prohibition is q
record Of hypocrisy and contempt
for law. Mr. Rose then quoted from q
speech Of Ri. Rev. Mgr. Franz Collier,
of IS. Peter and Paufs Church
Of st. Louis: The Pope certainly
does believe il temperance, that is,
moderation in all things, but not abb
prohibition. This is not the
spirit Of freedom, but Of autocratic
government. The Holy Father him
self takes . glass Of vine, and be-
that men should Be allowed to-
use their own judgment in what they
est and what they should
drink, and not have other men de-
eide such matters for them.' The
following extract from an interview
with Cardinal Gibbons, which appear
cd in the Baltimore News was also
read. AS a citizen and q church.

Of its temporal and moral welfare.

With The Legislators
Two Senate RlIIs Killed.

 The bill by Senator Wingo, provid- ing that men 65 years of age or over may be exempt from jury service was passed almost unanimously.
 Mr. Parks called attention to an agreement among those interested i'll the bill to preserve the old state house house to revise the motion by which further postponement ot that measure went over for three weeks from last Wednesday. He asked that consideration of the bill taken up next Thursday afternoon and formal motion to that effect by Mir.

Stands for Development.


 In commenting upon the present condition of the state and it's needs few days ago, a member of the legis- lature had this to say:
 Every member of this body is more than anxious to give his time and best efforts to further the material in terests of the state. We need foreign capital with which to build railroads, mills and factories, and should enact laws that will protect and encourage these institutions. The time has come when the people of this state realize that all this clamor about cor porations and the railroads and wealth is a selfish and senseless effort to further political designs, and that it can mean no present or ultimate good to the state To be prosperous we must have the investment of capital, and in no way can this investment be made a greater benefit to our peo- pie than in our railroads. Waste places must be made to blossom; wild regions must be redeemed and made populous; Arkansas as a whole must be brought in quick connection with the markets where her produce will be sold, and all this means railroads, prosperous railroads with money enough to construct new roads and to improve the old, to repair and buy new equipment and to give the state a railroad system which will be up to the highest standard of modern times, quick and efficient service-not at ruinously low but at fair rates, the imposition of no unjust burdens by way of expenses; no senseless require ments which are the offspring of ia naticism and which cannot help peo. pie, but can burden and check the development of the railroads The time has come for the exhibition oi sanity if Arkansas would keep pace with her sister states

TO KEEP THE EGG FRESH.

Fresh eggs in cold storage at 81 de-
grees Fahrenheit undergo little if any
change, for this temperature is suf-
fcient to limit the activities and pre-
vent the growth of the more common
bacteria.
The problem of preserving eggs by
excluding air has brought forth numer-
Gus methods. According to American
Medicine, German Investigators several
years ago conducted a series of tests,
keeping the eggs for about eight
months in some 90 different ways, and
found that immersed In brine all were
unfit for use; wrapped in paper, so per
cent bad; packed in bran or coated
with paraffine, 20 per cent bad; i'm
mersed in sol. salicylic acid, so per cent
bad; coated with shellac- or collodion,
10 per cent bad; packed in wood ashes,
10 per cent bad; coated with vaseline
or immersed in a solution of water
glass or lime water, none bad.
E From these experiments, as well as
many Others, it has been found that
a solution of water glass offers about
the best method of preserving eggs,
aside from cold storage. Water glass
is the common name for potassium or
sodium silieate, and is obtained in the
shops in the form of thick liquid
something like glycerine. One part of
this to nine Of sterile water makes a
preserving fluid of the proper strength.
The eggs should be packed in a clean,
sweet vessel, and the solution poured
over them uneil they are well covered
Preserved in this wy in a cool place,
they viii keep for months and often
cannot be distinguished in appearance
from the fresh article 1t is generally
conceded that they lack the flavor of
