PROHIBITION PROHIBITS.

1t used to be that one of the lead
ing arguments of those who were Op-
posed to prohibition so-called is that
prohibition does not prohibit" but
that argument is no longer heard-not
in this immediate section.
The position OF those who stand for
prohibition was that the use and abuse
of liquor had the effect of debauching
those who were addicted to the habit,
and Of bringing trouble and distress
upon helpless women and children.
They claimed that with the consump-
ton of whisky restricted, the self-res-
pect of former users would be increas-
ed, and the aspirations of the country
generally would be elevated.
OF course, there are people who will
not admit that conditions have been
improved by the general outlawing of
the liquor business; but everybody can
see and everybody knows that there is
less liquor consumed throughout this
territory now than ever before in the
history of the country and no one can
point out where anybody Is any the
worse for it,
OF course. there are still those who
drink whisky. That will be the case
as long as whisky Is to be had; but
these are on the decrease instead Of
on the increase There are fewer boys
learning to be whisky drinkers. be-
cause 1t is more difficult for the boys
to get whisky, and that of itself is
worth all that the long struggle has
cost.
But people VINO appreciate the pres
ent situation should not lull them
selves to sleep with the idea that it is
permanently established with no possi-
biity of a backward movement. The
greatest incentive to liquor consump-
tion is not the appetites of the liquor
drinkers. A more dangerous factor is
the greed Of would-be liquor sellers.
That is where most of the trouble has
come from in the past and that Is
where it will come from in the future.

DONE BY A SWlNDlER.

The possibility of getting something
for nothing has always appealed to
nearly all kinds of people. and the fact
that in this respect things are not very
different now from what they have al
ways been, enables hOrdes of swindlers
to subsst by their wits provided they
can live on their wits, which most of
them manage to do.
family at the York cotton mill
has just brought to the attention Of
Sheriff Brown some facts about sue
cessful swinde from which it has suf-
fered severely: but as usual i'm such
cases too late for anything to be done,
but Constable Sanders is now trying
to pick up such clues as may lead at
least to the embarrassment of the
swindler.
The trick complained of. was so
transparent on its face that it would
seem remarkable that anybody could
be found to give up their money 50
easy: but somehow it is a fact that
the easier the simpler the bait is. the
more readily people bite.
A fellow came to one of these fam
lilies. representing that he was the
agent for James Il. Whitmore q Co.
of New York, and was advertising their
Household Furnishing company, which
plies of the best quality at the lowest
possible prices. The plan of introduce
ton was an alleged lottery scheme.
The fellow had bunch of lithOgraph-
ed certificates numbered consecutiv"ly,
and he told the people that each certi-
ficate called for a premium. The price
of chance was dollar and Il prize
was guaranteed to every chance. He

that the prize would be- a parlor organ,
another it would be a gold watch, an
other it would be sewing machine.
another it would be Il cooking stove.
and so on through the list. The ag-
grcgate value of the seven alleged
prizes he figured up as in the neigh
borhood Of some three hundred dol
lars, and he assured his customers that
i'm all his experience he had never run
across such a lucky family. ordinarily
he said, some of the prizes were of
but small value but i'm this case every
thing went high. He solrmnly assured
his delighted victims that their pre-
miums would be on hand within Il
week or ten days and then picked his
way out of the village.
The swindler gave his nam" as

rs there getting to be a dcarth of
thought among the newspaper men of

through the editorial columns of the
