THE SALOON GRUe.AX.

An aged Tennessee farmer fenced
in a garden TO provide vegetables for
his household 4 large stump stood In
tine center OF the enclosure. For
years this stump was a source of au-
uoyancc I'm ulling the garden. The
plow would hang in its roots. foml
weeds would grow about It. and moth
ing useful would flourish near It. The
cd farmer stood the annoyance for
years. At last, irritated by the NUS
once he called his boys to Sring
their axes and dig around the stump.
He then threw log chain about II.
hitched a team OF splendid mules to
1.-THE roots cracked the dirt flew.
and the old stump was pulled out by
the roots and thrown from the gar
den The ground was lcYcled and the
spot brought forth abundantly the
useful products for the food OF the
family. When tho farmer saw his
first crop growing whore the old
stump had stood, he said. How fool
ish that | did not do that long years
before
There stands In the garden OF our
American civilization an old stump
called the liquor traffic. Every plow
OF progress catches in It's vicious roots.
Nothing beautiful or useful grows near
IL. It's n pest only. and n post al
ways We arc digging around that
old stump, and the day is not far
distant whom VIC shall throw around

made with the American ballot, and

toss 1t from our civilization, and in It's
place wen plant useful and helpful

that we delayed so long this glo--

AN ALLIANCE WITH
THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC

Can address by Clinton ~ Howard)
We wonder that so many OF our
well-meaning citizens fail to see that
they are In alliance with the liquor
traffic so long as they vote for the
licensing of the saloon. or vote for
those who will lend their influence
for the continuation of the liquor traf-
flc. Is not one open saloon liable
10 do as much harm at least as a
magazine advertisement? But If you
cast your vote In Chicago, II means a
vote for more than seven thousand sa-
looms; If in New York, for more than
ten thousand saloons Dare you tell
heavens recording angel that you Will
share the responsibility OF all the sin
and suffering caused during 1910 by
these thousands of saloons-with the
keepers of these plaGue-spots OF our
ciyllizatiOn7 That's what you did when
you voted for license lis IT not time
for you TO take the Ledger's pledge,
promising Ito sin no more?"
We wonder that our government can
not see its duty TO refuse TO derive n
OF its citizens from that which de-
ollpSh luf oOulo dUu uDulSb bl ti'
people The rulers of China and
Madagascar long ago refused such
revenue. Lincoln, Mckinley. Glad
stone, Lord Chesterfield, John RuSkin,
and other great thinkers and states,
men have denounced such system of
government support.
Mr.. Clinton n. Howard, a we'll
known temperance lecturer. said at
the Worlds Temperance Congress-
Total abstinence IS not enough; We
must place the emphasis today upon
Christian voting. Salvation for the
drinker was the first step, salvation
for the drink seller was the second.
salvation for the drink voter is the
last step 10 the victory over the sa-
loon.
The AK must be laid at the root Of
the tree. To its source. the ballot Of
the criminal citizen, the curse has
been traced, and there the AK OF sep
aration must be laid The one great
central truth evolved from a century
of temperance, prayer. and endeayor
is that the criminal saloonkeeper is
as good as the criminal laws that
license him, and no worse than the
criminal citizen who makes and sus-
tains them This criminal partner
ship with the saloon at the ballot
box must be broken. Let the iron
brand where 1t will: consent to sin
is one with the sinner, whether as
keeper, drlnker. or voter You can
not consent that another man shall
run a saloon without sharing the re-
sponsibility for that saloon.
The saloonkeeper Is in business by
the grace of bad mems votes, and
that Is intended to include all men
whose ballot consents TO the curse.
Thus saying thou reproachest us"
| do reproach you, Christian citizen
of America.
If 1t is wrong to make liquor. wrong
to sell It. wrong 10 drink il, wrong to
rent property to 1t, it Is wrong to
vote to continue II. When we can
convert the saloon voters, we can
put out of business the saloon run

A CHICAGO SCIENTIST SUCCESS.
FULLY IsoLATEs AND STUDIES
ION OF ELECTRICITY.
ACCURATELY MEASURED
HE DisPROvES MPoNDERAsLE
FLUID THEORY AND UPHoLDS
THE IONIC HYPOTHESIS.

Chicago,-A single ion, the atom OF
electricity, has been isolated and stud
led. the ultimate electrical charge has
been accurately measured and the act
ual structure of the charges observed
for the first time, by Robert A. Mil
lkan, associate professor of physics at
the University of Chicago.
Professor Millikan startled his sci.
entific colleagues and students when
he announced these facts in a lecture
Tuesday night at the Quadrangle
Club.
Professor Millikan has swept away
much of the mystery surrounding the
nature of the electrical cnarge since
the discovery of electricity.
Besides capturing an individual ion.
the long misunderstood carrier of cleo
tricity, he has viewed in his laboratory
peppery specks of electricity on
charged bodies, disproving the theory
that electricity is an "imponderable
fluid" and upholding the indefinite
Ionic hypothesis" of Faraday, who
gave his theory to the world in 1880.
The university scientist has, in
brief, tanned and put through their
PAGES the infinitely small physical par
ticles which have previously existed
for the scientist only in theory.
He has proved the "kinetic theory"
that molecules of air are in rapid mo-
ton, and has measured the energy of
agitation" of these molecules.
Another important demonstration by
Professor Millikan gives new and
unique proofs regarding the number of
charges carried by each ion, the mo-
bility of ions and various accepted
physical laws.
He characterizes the method he
used in his experiments as so simple
that it is rather strange that it has
not been hit on before. The actual
catching of the single ions was ac-
complished by the introduction of a
"droplet" of oil between the plates of
q horizontal air condenser.
The presence of the ions became ap-
parent owing to the action of the oil
particles.

WEEKS EVENTS
COLORADO
Colorado Lands Eliminated.

Washington, d. C.-The President
has signed proclamations eliminating
1862 acres from the Battlement and
| GIGS acres from the White River ma
tional forest. These eliminations are
the result of careful field examina-
ton made on all national forests by
the department of agriculture during
the summer of 1909.
The examinations resulted in data
as to the character OF lands along the
forest boundaries. The object sought
was to learn both where lands within
the boundaries should be excluded
from the forests and where outside
land should, in the interest of their
best use in accordance with the prin-
ciples laid down by law for the crea-
ton of national forests, be brought
within the boundaries. Since, however.
no increase in the national forest
area of Colorado can be made by the
President, the proclamations concern
only the areas which have been found
suitable for elimination.
The lands excluded from the Battle
ment forest are rolling foothills or level
flats along the exterior boundaries
The largest and most important
changes are at the extreme west end
of the Battlement mesa division and
at tie extreme northwest corner OF
the Grand mesa division.
From the White River national for
est the exclusions are principally rug
ged foothills without commercial tim
ber. The principal elimination is in
the extreme southeastern corner of
the forest and includes portion of
the Grand river and Rifle creek water
sheds.
The unappropriated portions of the
areas eliminated will be restored to
settlement and entry after advertise
ment in the local papers by the sec
retary of the interior
