Great Temperance Victory.

Great 1 emperdnce Victory.
The following is condensed from an
article found in the Union Signal of
February 10:
Through the determined efforts of
Governor Stubbs of Kansas, a great
temperance victory has been won.
President Taft has changed the policy
of the internal revenue department so
that the officers of that department
must aid the authorities of dry states
or districts to enforce their local liquor
laws. instead of hindering them.
Under the old system which had been
in vogue since the founding of the gov
ernment, the revenue department never
treated liquor vending as crime.
When bootlegger was caught SELL
ing liquor without government stamp,
all he had to do to square himself with
the officers was to take out a stamp
covering the time he had been violat-
ing the law. He found the officers
were obhgingly ready to date back the
stamp, thus covering the period of law
violation
This law was especially obnoxious to
Kansas and other prohibition states.
hence Governor Strbbs insisted that the
revenue service should enforce the
federal law which lays heavy penalty
on persons selling liquor without a
federal stamp, rather than compromise
with crime by letting them pay for a
stamp covering their violations.
He declared that by condoning such
crime the government was helping to
promote the bootlegging business.
With view to making an organized
onslaught on the old policy, Governor
Stubbs wrote to the governors of all the
prohibition states; most of them replied.
The Kansas governor went direct to
President Taft and laid bare all the

When asked for his views on the
much-discussed prize automobile con-
test, Pres. Frank Navin. of the Detroit
club, made the following statement:
"The question az to whether Cobb
or Lajoie gets the automobile Is the
smallest part OF the situation. Owner
ship of the automobile carries with
1t some distinction and 81 500 worth
Of value. That Is all. You cannot
estimate nor conceive the damage
done TO sport by the suspicious which
this matter has caused.
How many times one has heard the
statement: oh. | bet that game was
fixed How many times every man
govern the national sport has arisen
to defend the game and laud Its hon.
esty. The st. Louis incident Sunday
will give TO those who wish TO suspect
plenty of basis on which TO anchor
their suspicious.
II cannot bring myself to the point
where | might grieve deeply over the
fact that Cobb lost the auto, or Is sup
posed TO have lost 1t. or course |
would indicate, considerable blame
prize. / do regret exceedingly that
anything OF this nature should have
found its way into baseball and as a
cluD owner l am going to use all my
energy TO see that conditions never
arise again to make a situation of this
kind possible.
IF the lay down to Lajoie was as
barefaced as reports from st. Louis
would indicate considerable blame
should attach to the owners Of the St.
Louis club. Nothing like this ever
could happen on my grounds. The
president Of the st. Louis club. I I'M
derstand, was at Sundays game and
he should have seen TO II that his men
did not make themselves parties to a
thing which would not only harm the
game generally. but which will cost
him thousands Of dollars through loss
OF patronage In his own city.
1T Is just possible that the thing
was not so raw as reported, yet II
would seem strange that st. Louis
sport writers would exaggerate what
actually occurred.
