desire above all else. an open way
untrammeled y adverse legislation.
They want To be let alone in their
work of SHARING our boys and defiling
our girls. They want a free hand
as they loot the pockets of the peo-
pie. When they have let loose upon
society the f~iercest passions Of I'M
buted men 10 murder and destroy
they wish To be free. Pilate-like to
placidly wash their hands Of all
responsibility. Dahlman and men of
Dahlman's stripe want personal lib
erty: it is just what one would ex-
pect of that crowd.
In we'll ordered society every
mans personal liberty ends where
the other fellows begins. This is
civil liberty. or liberty by limitation
Civil liberty is the liberty of the
other follow. The law of right and
Justice guarantees him this liberty.
Jim Dahlman and the saloon eryers
are careful to avoid any reference TO
civil liberty. lie has nothing in his
platform for the %uuder-dog. His
solicitations in the interests of the
people are for effect only. lie has
no use for the people but TO use
them as his tools for furthering his
selfish interests. lie is duDing the
people with hi bland sophistries and
lies. posing rs the peoples friend,
only to strip them of every vestige of
manhood aea Womanhood, and throw
them when broken and undone upon
the care of the state and society.
Jim Dahlman, himself may not be so
bad a man at heart as this would
represent him, but he has deliberate
ly chosen To be the representative
in Nebraska of the liquor interests
and he must expect to draw upon
himself all the odium that has in
these years attached itself to this
despicable business.

SLAVE DRIVING IN NEW YORK.
Young Girls Kept in %stockades Wait
ing For Buyers-soId Like Cattle.

T
\ shocking condition Of things has
been unearthed in New Yorl- by the
efforts of those interested in checking
the traffic in girls. \ number of
stoekades. or more Utterly, girl-pens
have been located where girls have
been trapped and are held prisoners
until a buyer appears VINO buys them
like 50 many cattle. The extreme hor-
ror of the whole gruesome business
is too awful to detail.
Well dressed women. some of whom
are college bred, hang around cheap
th%eaters. dance halls and other places
of amusement for the poorer classes.
They single out giddy girls. who are
dissatisfied al home and who are
f~retting for more freedom and aban-
donment. They win their attention,
cultivate their confidence and by de
grees. in one way or another lure
them into the %stoeades, Yeritab BILE girl
traps. When safely caught they are
under the care and management of
the proprietor, whose business it is
to sell them to keepers of houses of
prostitution at as good a figure as
possible.
Harry Leyinson, who was arrested
last week and IS under Indictment as
a white SLAYER" told the police that
there were at least three stockades in
New York and hat there were kept
at all times at least ten girls in each
one ready for the market night or
day. Leyinson said he was a spec
ialist in finding buyers for the girls
in the stoekades. The house paid
the stockade keeper a sum for each
girl and allowed Leyison ten per
cent of the girls earnings. lie said
that he found the business paid much
better than the work he had been
at before.
But this is only one phase of the
white slave traffic in Ney York
alone, not mentioning such other
cities as Chicago, st. Louis and San
Francisco. What is still worse is the
assurance that these heinous crimes
against humanity are abetted and
protected by the police. II is past
believing. and yet none the Jess true,
that offices and political prestige are
bought and sold with the price of
a thousand times more in free Amer
lea. The time is coming, if not here
now, when we Americans may we'll
hang our heads with shame and real
alarm over the results of our boast
ed and superior civilization.

Pulling For The Home Merchant.

Let us imagine for a brief moment
at least that our fondest anticipations
for the growth of Tecumseh for this
year 1910 are realiZed-that we have
secured Il sewerage plant, an extend
ed water service. an alfalfa mill and
other enterprises and improvements
which will be of great benefit to MS.
Let every MAI woman and child in
the city join hands in a movement for
a bigger, a better Tecumseh. Let us
all be boosters" every minute of
our lives, and let there be no knock
ers. Encourage every home enter
prise. Take an interest in every in
dustry, invest literally in the stock
of faith and good will, and distribute
it all over the city. in every place of
business, in every shop and on the
street. 1t will pay us large dividends
and will cost very little. 1t can
never depreciate in value. 1t will
always be above par. Buy homemade
goods, Ask your merchants for them.
Wear home made garments. eat home
made articles of food. sleep ON home
made beds and insist upon every ar
ticle we daily use as beinf home
made, if possible. In this way the
money We spend is only loaned. It
will come back TO us again with in
terest. Praisa up our city-don't run
it down. Stan by our INGREDIENTS and
any and every industry we have.
They are the lone and sinew of our
municipal structure. Stand by our
churches and our schools-they are
the hopes of cur future. With a
strong determination to protect the
homo town first, last and all the time
and with a concerted action in the
interests of its upbuilding in Tecum-
sch, we should have one of the best
little cities in The state and a very de
sirable place in which to live.

Drunkards Declared Insan.

Representative William E. Bense of
Ottawa county, Ohio, has a bill de.
fining habitual drunkenness as in
cipient insanity, which he will soon
introduce.
Those adjudged as near" lunatics
are to be committed to the nearest
state hospital for the insane. to be
held until discharged as cured.
The state will provide the medical
attendance. and the county from which
the alcoholic lunatic is sent $40 a
month.
Representative Bense, who is a lib
eral, defines his bill as a temperance
measure.

PERSONAL LIBERTY VS.. CIVIL
LIBERTY,

The personal liberty wall of the
Dahlmanites and other wet goods
brethren, is APP TO have more or less
influence with people who have not
looked into the matter sufficiently to
appreciate the sophistries of that
line of argument. Science has sue
cessfully uncovered and refuted the
whole line of whiskey arguments.
The personal liberty cry is the
last trick of the "wets' to coerce and
brighten the people and prevent them
from boiling Q wet issue bodily.
What then IL understood by person
al liberty, and why are the wet-goods-
men so anxious just now lest the peo-
pies, liberties should be infringed up
on? Personal liberty means the
liberty of ones person. Vulgarly
speaking. 1t means the right to do
as n pleases. The personal liber-
tyite, acknowledges no law. but the
law of the fist. With him might
makes right. He admits no respon-
sibility for tho under-dog. II is a
plain case of look out for number one.
The personal liberty propaganda is
in the interests of the few as against
the many. The saloon crowd want to
be free to do their W sweet will.
They want personal liberty They

to offer to give up plates in return for i'm
munity. This the government had always
accepted until that Hoboken case. Taylor
and Bredell were not I'm possession of any
plates and their bail was 800, 900, so they
decided to try to make them in Jail.
Taylor's mother struggled in the necessary
tools and materials and the two men en-
graved the plates in their cell under a
blanket with the aid Of an alcohol lamp.
1t took them two months to complete the
work, but they actually printed the money.
sent II out and had 1t passed. When some
OF the money was shown to Burns he at
once said that only Taylor and Bredell
could have made It. He went to the prison
and charged them Nwith it and they at
length confessed.
One of Burns last big pieces OF work
for the Treasury department was the ap-
prehenslon of Dimmick. who robbed the
San Francisco mint OF 10000. Dlmmick
has just been released from San Quentin
prison after doing min years. 1t took two
years 70 secure a conviction. Dimmick
was assistant superintendent of the mint
and he had succeeded in familiarlzing him
self with the locks Of the vault so that he
could stand at the lock with the works
exposed and determine what combination
another person was setting. Here Burns
again did some eliminating and deductlng,
but II took time to get evidence.
Burns left San Francisco and came east,
and was preparing to take a European
