There are in progress in the city of Chicago
at the present time two movements that not only
deserve the support of every Prohibitionist in
the city, but should have, and will have, the SYM
pathetic attention of Prohibitionsts in all parts
of the country. The influence of this great CEN
ter of commerce and population of the country
at large is such that nothing which touches the
life of this city in important matters can be with
out interest to every intelligent American cit-
The first of these movements is that for max
ing Chicago "dry" territory, a movement which,
startling as the proposition may seem, is under
way in good faith.
The history of this movement is interesting.
A recent Illinois legislature, spurred on by the
fact that the Prohbitionists were beginning to
elect legislators and that the people were exhib
iting great uneasiness toward the rule of the
liquor-owned old parties enacted local option
law, by which it is possible for townships and
municipalities to vote directly upon the contin
uance or abolition of the license system within
their boundaries. 1t is probable that it was the
expectation of the legislators who voted for the
law and of the politicians who finally consented
to its passage that it would result in the "going
dry" of only few rural townships where saloons
have always been few and far between, and from
the drying up" of which the liquor traffic would
suffer little injury. surprise was in store for
these people, and the existence of a sentiment
against the saloon never dreamed of by the poll
ticans was at once shown. Under the operation
of the law whole counties have driven out the
saloon, and several cities of considerable size,
including Rockford with a population of almost
100000 have closed the doors of their gin mills.
Of course, Prohibitionists know that these
towns have freed themselves from the evils of
the liquor traffic only in small part even where
the law has been best enforced, and of course,
the Prohibitonist realizes that the legislature
never had the right to leave to the people of any
locality the power to determine whether such
an evil as the sale of liquor should be continued
in that locality But of course, also, the Pro-
hbitonist realizes that, when the legislature has
neglected its duty the people do rightly in per-
forming so much of it as they are able to per-
form, and the advantage of being rid of the open
saloon is one which every city and town may
very properly seek.

HISTORY OF THE MOVEMENT

A little more than two years ago a few en-
thusastic gentlemen conceived the idea of secur-
ing vote upon the license question in the city
of Chicago In order to bring this about it is
necessary first to file petition of twenty-five per-
cent of the registered voters of the city The eff
fort to secure this petition two years ago had
no formal backing from any organization The
gentlemen who led the movement were Prohibi-
tionists good many churches united heartily,
and the Anti Saloon League looked with sus-
picon, and no formal endorsement was given the
enterprise by the Prohibition partys committee.
A large number of names were secured in sigma
lures to the petition, but the effort failed of Sc
curing the required total.
year ago the effort was repeated, but in half
hearted fashion that gave promise of success
from the outset.

LINCOLN--I don't know much about
the tariff, but l know this: much
When we buy manufactured goods
abroad we get the goods and the for
eigner gets the money. When we buy
the manufactured goods at home we
get both the goods and the money.
GRANT-The American system OF
locating manufacturing next to the
pillow and the pasture has produced a
result noticeable by the intelligent
portion of all commercial nations.
HARRISON-The more work there
is to do in this country the higher the
wages that will be paid for doing it.
That policy which secures the largest
amount of work to be done at home is
the policy which will secure to our
laboring men steady employment at
the best wages.

TAFT.-The present business sy3-
tenn of the country rests on the pro
tective tariff and any attempt to
change it to a free trade basis will
certainly lead to disaster. II is i'm
portant that all republicans who be-

shortage of nearly three million
hogs for the first six months of 1910.

way that this shortage will be over
