of thousands-and millions.
Orange township is not alone. In the
goodly number of examples, we recall Han
nibal in Oswego county in New York state,
where, something more than two years ago,
the Prohibition party stood up, man fashion,
and took possession of the town government
and has held it ever since
1t can be done; it MUST be done every
where.
Of course the two old parties will fuse
against us, but that is not wholly undesir-
able, for that hastens the bursting open Of
the great gulf of cleavage that must be
forced between the men who believe the
liquor traffic right and the men who believe
the liquor traffic wrong.
The call of the present hour is for some
plan for concert of action that will give
us, not merely here and there an Orange
or a Hannibal, but the whole party, in
every organized subdivision of government,
rising up to take possession of power
and an aronsimg of all our people to such
sense of their personal responsibility as

of such a Increment possible.
The voice that can sound the call and
announce the plan which will arouse us
all to this effort can lead us all, 7viU lead
us ALTO victory.

THE LEAGUE AND LIQUOR SUPPORT

The american Issue, the organ of the Anti
Saloon League, under the editorial caption There
is Reason" attempts to discredit the Prohibi-
ton party with the allegation that it is favored
by the liquor press. 1t says:
Zone very interesting development of months
is the attitude assumed by the liquor press toward the
Prohibition party doctrine of saloon suppression contra
distinguished from that of the Anti Saloon League The
prevailing opinion expressed by liquor editors
to be that the AntiSaloon League plan is all
and that the Prohibition party plan is the only reason
able attitude for the temperance people to take"
Asserting that this is a testimonial to the eff
fectiveness of the Leagues plan of campaign, the
Issue concludes:
when in any state community the liquor interests
begin to agree with the policy and plans of the Anti
Saloon League will be proof positive that the time is
hand for the League change its policy out
of the fight"
We cannot avoid the feeling that the editor of
the Issue has yielded to the temptation to make
most unfair, and in effect most untruthful, at
tack upon the Prohibition party We may con-

THE "WHITE SLAVE" BILL

We note with great pleasure the statement
made in personal letter of Congressman
MANN that the anti-white slave bill has been
amended as to its title so as to now read, "A
bill to further regulate interstate and foreign
commerce by prohibiting the transportation there
in for immoral purposes of women and girls"
This makes the bill far less Objectionable than
it was in its original form when it announced
itself bill to regulate the traffic in women and
girls One Objectionable feature appears still to
be retained-that which The National Pyohibi-
ZIONIST has already spoken of as giving quasi
recognition to houses of infamy by requiring
propretors of such places to register alien women
living in them. We not assured that the
end desired can be attained without that pro-
vision, but the moral of every honest man
must revolt at what it implies. Yet, since the
federal government, under existing conditions, is
not able to abolish infamous resorts, it may per-
haps, be argued that it is doing all it can in
this provisional law.
Be that as it may, it will doubtless be a con-
siderable step in progress to have the MANN bill
become law, and the party in power has suf
fcently clear majority in both Houses that fail
ure to pass it will be open to the worst possible
construction.
At the time the public must not for
moment be allowed to be de1uded. The So
called white slave" feature of the vice prob
lem is but very small part of the whole prob
lem Nothing but the complete extirpaton of the
infamous system now fostered by the municipal
governments of both old parties will meet the
needs of the case.

A DEMONSTRATED POSSIBILITY

Driven into an obscure corner by the ext
gencles of the makeup" process and by
the fact that the news came late to this Of
fee, story from Michigan appeared in
The National Prohibitionist last week that
was worthy of the most prominent place
in the paper The reader who does not
recall it will do we'll to turn to last weeks
paper and read, "A Michigan Starting
Point" on page H. Briefly summarized,
the story is this:
The state committee workers in Michi-
gan concentrated, the other day, on single
township, Orange in Ionia county. In
that township, at the last election, there
were 10 Republican votes, like number
of Democratic votes, and only 2I Prohibi-
ton votes. When the representatives of the
state committee had can1aSSed thirty of the
thirty-SiF sections of the township, I34 men,
more than half the total 0otig population
of the to7vnshib, 7Vere pledged to cote the
Prohibition party ticket.
We do not believe that Orange township
is in any way remarkably exceptional among
the other townships of rural Michigan or
of the United States Probably there are
some hundreds of townships in Michigan
where the same thing can be done with the
same ppexpenditure of effort; and what is
true of Michigan is true practically of any
other state.
The American people are done with"
the saloon. 1t has been demonstrated to
the intelligence of the average American
citizen that the liquor traffic is evil, always
evil and nothing but eUll; that it is the
parent of train of public woes that makes
it a fit subject for prohibitory legislation.
Not only this, but the average American
citizen is thoroughly sick of the two old,
so-called great political parties. He not
only expects no right action from them
upon this great political question: but he
expects from them nothing in the way of
commonly good or honest government.
They stand discredted before the intelli-
gence of American citizenship.
1t needs only that the citizenship of the
country should have the chance to join a
good faith effort of the Prohibition party
to take possession of government and adj
minister it to the overthrow of the liquor
power and the establishment of honesty
and iustice-it needs only that chance to

A REAL PERIL-WILL YOU HELP?

There seems to be reason to believe that the
effort of the administration at Washington to
force an increase in the postage rate paid by
newspapers is more dangerous than it was at
first supposed to be.
To increase three or four times the postage
rate on newspapers would be to wipe out large
number of periodicals which depend upon the
mails for circulation. There is reason to be-
lieve that that is the purpose in view. Under
one of the former administrations the Third AS
sistant Post Master General, who has to do
with periodicals, pursued a course very like
running amuck," making the widest possible
use of his lawful and unlawful power to harass
newspaper publishers That gentleman in ex-
PLANTATION of his course, upon one occasion, said
"Ihere are too damned many newspapers in this
country. mean to kill off some OF them" Per-
haps the administration now in power at Wash
ngton might phrase the sentiment a little more
elegantly, but we suspect the motive is the same.
For more than a decade past the government
at Washington has been growingly imperalistic.
The record of rough-shod riding over law on
the part of Presidential administrations does not
need to be recited here, while disregard for the
peoples rights and the growth of corruption
have been appalling. Imperialism, particularly
corrupt imperialism, cannot tolerate free press,
which it recognizes as its natural enemy
We do not wish to be alarmists, but, when
review the we'll known facts which abso-
lutely disprove the pretended reasons which Mr..
TAFT has set forth for his action against the
newspapers, are forced to believe that it is
part of the plan to further ens1ave the Ameri-
people by Gripping the press. Once put out
of the way the papers which a quadrupling of
the postage rate would kill and the corrupt Re-
publican party dominating more than three
fourths of the daily papers of the country would
be pretty nearly able to silence any protest against
its corruption.
This is matter in which the newspaper pub
fishers of the country are intensely interested,
but the interest of the people is even more This
mschievous bill is before committee of
the House, the committee on post Offices and
