fess a fair familiarity with the liquor press, but
we are wholly unable to recall single paragraph
in any liquor paper which warrants the Issues
statement. On the other hand, it is a notorious
Ect that, whenever and wherever the liquor
INTERESTS believe that there is the slightest danger
+ the adoption of Prohibition they clamor for
the Leagues method-local option Opposition
to Prohibition in North Carolina and South Caro-
lima and Tennessee and Mississippi and Alabama
and Georgia has rallied under the local option
banner every time, and in some of those fights
the League has stood with the opposition In
Kentucky and Missouri today, where the League
stands committed to local option in opposition
to the Prohibitionists who demand Prohibition,
the Leagues allies in that position are the liquor
interests.
If the Anti-Saloon League is inclined to take
the editorial advice of the american Issue, and
change its policy or get out of the fight if it
finds the liquor interests agreeing with its policy,
beg to bring to the attention of its officials,
both the situation in Kentucky and Missouri, and
the recent utterance of the United States Brewers
Association:
"To deny that the local community has the right to
decide for itself whether the sale of ntoxicans
shall be licensed is to deny wholesome principle of local
self-government."
With what does that agree, and with what
disagreed?

TREASON

In spite of the outcry that some of the liquor
papers have raised because The National Pro-
hibitioniSt recently classified the lawbreaking pub
lie officials who abet the lawbreaking liquor seller
as rebels against properly constituted authority,
we purpose to stand square1y by that classical
ton
4 Civilization and progressive national life are
yrsssible only where law is respected The citizen
who defies law and the official who abets law
defiance are guilty of the gravest of crimes
against the nation and against civilization.
The liquor dealer and maker pretend to believe
that the laws against their business are
righteous but their agitation for the repeal of
such laws is always conducted with fraud and
Misrepresentation They break the laws, not in
any spirit of solemn protest against unrighteous-
ness, but with the same spirit that actuates the
thief when he breaks the law, and by fraud and
corruption again they seek to escape, and COM
monty do escape the results of their awbreaking.
These facts make the lawbreaking liquor seller
specially obnoxious creature in the sight of every
aw-abding citizen; but, even at that, he is less
obnoxious and less dangerous to civilization and
to the perpetuity of institutions than the
public official who, in violation of his sworn OBJ
legation, assists the liquor dealer to break the law
the man whose most sacred duty is the main
tanning of the supremacy of law, but who lends
himself instead to the tearing down of law, to
destroying the spirit of respect for law, to the
creation of anarchy. Armed revolution never
anywhere struck so dangerous blow to govern
ment as such peri ured official strikes.
In the old days men hanged rebels. We are not
sure that they did wisely but we are sure that no
rebel who ever paid with his life the penalty
of rebellion, deserved the punishment more richly
than the men who are making American
cities hotbeds of anarchy at the behest of the
liquor traffic.
These are stern Words and we mean them
sternly. The time has come to cease mincing
matters The time has come to tell the traitorous
liquor interests and the perjured public officials
whom they control that we recognize them for
just what they are-traitors to our government,

Governor STUBS of Kansas complains in tele-
gram to President TAFT that the United States
revenue collectors in Kansas not only do not en-
force the law which requires the holder of re-
tail tax certificate to post the same, but, when
they find bootlegger in operation without tax
certificate, merely collect from him the tax in
stead of prosecuting him for his violation of the
law. Governor STUBBs should not spend his
money on kilograms so rashly. That news is
old enough that he could send it by slow freight
without loss of value.

A NEW PANAMA WHITEWASHER

The Boston Transcript publishes letter from
Mr.. ASHTON E. HEMPHILL of Holyoke, Massa-
chusetts, in denial of the assertions made by
concerning the white slave trade in Panama. Mr.
HEMPH1LL has been to Panama and has investi-
gated, that is to say, has talked with the" public
officials. He says:
81 absorbed all I could from Lieutenant-Colone
GEORGE w. COCKTAILS and Others"
And he says that
cali evils watched with great and kept down
to the lowest point"
Mr.. HEMPHILL further tells the readers of the
Transcript that the United States government has
no responsibility for conditions in Colon and
Panama, and ends up his letter with the asser-
ton that,
"Charge after charge has been made regarding the
Panama Canal and all nearly all have been proved
untrue"
Evidently Mr.. HEMPHILL needs to learn good
deal about the work of investigation. If he would
investigate Tammany or the Chicago police de-
partment by the same method, would come and
"absorb" from Chief STEWARD or go and "absorb"
from "Boss" MURPHY, he might get very lovely
idea of conditions in Chicago police headquarters
or in Tammany Hall. Real investigation of
ditions in Panama has been made, and the
sponsbility of Our government for the situation
there is not matter of guess-work, but of known
fact AS to the numerous charges that have been
made about conditions in Panama. the fact is
denied, disproof has been notably wanting.
