A Discussion
Of Prohibition

There will be an address at the
Christian Church SUNDAY night along
the line of the prohibition and re-
submission question. With the ap-
preaching primary ard regular cleo
tion, those questions should have care

liable statistics.

should all be glad to give such sup

The report Of a select committee on
Imprisonment for debt which was laid
on the table in the British house of
commons last month has been made
public. The present law permits i'm.
prisonment where the debtor has
m'ans to pay and will not do IL.
Charles Dickens was largely the
cause OF the change in the old laws
when poor debtors were kept in prison
hopelessly. Some now think England
went too far the other way and ask
that where the debt is for necessaries
or for damages for wrongs commit
ted, the prison should punish. Poor
people and artisans are not to suffer.

FEW WAGERS
BEING MADE
Plenty Of Democrats Willing
to Bet But Cannot
Find Takers.
So, 900 AT PACKER HOUSE

Contrary to the usual custom,
few wagers have been made in this
city on the result of the coming
election. A few days ago one man
declared he had a friend, who had
500 to bet that Adam Eckert, the
independent candidate for mayor,
would poll 1000 votes. 1t Is cur
rent gossip that several prominent
democrats fastened to the sport"
with the necessary zone hundred
covered. There seems to be plenty
of democratic money about, but
while many prominent republicans
are predicting the election of Vivian
M. Lewis as governor, they are
wary about wagering any money on
1t.
Several prominent democrats have
made up pool of $4,000 to wager
either on Woodrow Wilson, the gu
bernatorial nominee, or Mayor AL
bert BolIschweiler, candidate for re-
election. The money has been de-
posted with Proprietor Crawford,
of the Packer House, and he has
been instructed to wager all or any
part of 1t that the two foregoing men
will be elected; $1,000 is chiefly to
bet on Bollschweiler, while the 9TH
er $500, the money of a prominent
city office holder, is ready to be
placed at even money on Wilson.
AS yet none of the money has been
covered but it is likely that some
part of 1t will be taken up within
the next week or SO.
Lawyer Peter A. Peterson says
he has $500 to bet that four of the
straight republican school board
ticket will be elected. He made the
statement in local cafe a few
nights ago and has reiterated it sew
eral times since. A prominent bus
mess man when he heard of the
wager last night, declared he would
take it and expects to cover Peter
sons money this afternoon.
Several bets have also been made
here that Dix will defeat Stimson for
the goyernorship of New York.

Park avenue, from tn. effects of mys-

believes he was struck either by taxi

the victim of murderous assault.
Last evening the senator took a stroll
and twenty minutes later he staggered
into his apartments, where he sank into
the arms of his friends. Doctors at

done. ,s-4
He Is an important parsonage to
those As, 600 voters. The friends of
his republican opponet admit that
the congressional election this year
will be the closest known since the
three counties were thrown into Va

the land
Who and what is he?
II you meet him personally, and
chat with him for a while you will
leave with the impression of one of
the most charming personages you
I have run across Appropriateness
is one of his chief characteristics.
If you, as a stranger, dropped into a
seat beside him in a railroad train,
| you would probably soon be talking
with him.
When you get through you would
want to know who he was, and
would not be very much surprised to
learn that he was at the head of the
largest business of it's very large
kind in America, If not in the whole
world But you would wonder to
find a disposition unsecured, and q
manner unblunted and unchilled by
the exactions of troublous days in
the world of trade.
Mr.. Scully Is a man of medium
height and build. looking somewhat
younger than his two score and two
years He speaks in pleasant, well
modulated tones and emphasizes his
points with a good humored twinkle
of the eye. He is at ease in any stu
alton and never hesitates to express
an opinion upon any subject that
may arise.
Possibly" he says, more is to be
gained in the long run by holding
ones peace upon every question until
one is smoked OUT but to my mind
that is cowardly, and is not in my
nature"

he got little up in the world" said
one of his old boyhood chums-a re-

fourteen are his friends Of forty"
A candidates personality, while
it is perforce the first consideration,
is nevertheless a minor considera-

he sincere?
You can find the answer to these
questions by talking but a little
while with Mr.. Scully. He has ideas,
and he is not afraid to express them,
even though at cost.

saries is the cause of the high cost
