THE ELECTION WILL SOON BE
OVER,

The special election under the
provisions of the local option law
will soon be a thing of the past;
and we imagine that the people of
the county will be glad of it. This
election will probably settle the
question for a number of years so
far as Canyon County is concerned.
If such be the case the voters of the
County should approach the polls
with honesty of purpose and after
grave reflections on the issues in
volved Sound business sense
should be used in deciding the ques-
ton at this time.
The concensus of opinion of the
business men and property owners
of the county is that, so long as the
liquor traffic is permitted in close,
adjoining territory. that it is to tn

best interests of the people that
Canyon county be wet. The drys
have had ample opportunity to dem
onstrate the benefits and advantages
of the present system. Some of
them admit the failure to date; most
are in grave doubts; and only a few
point with pride to the achievement
The business men have no doubts
at all. They know that in dollars
and cents; in business and trade
and in property valuations; that it
is a losing proposition for them.
They see the wet towns attracting
the trade of tributary country, sole
ly because these towns are wet. 1t
is natural that they should want to
revert to the old, licensed saloon
system.
The Tribune would congratulate
both sides upon the fairness and
decency with which the campaign
has been conducted. In campaign
of this kind it is very easy to be-
come embittered against opponents;
land consequently violent in accusa-
tons. There has been a little rant
ing, but nothing of a serious nature.
Both sides realize that the people
of Canyon county both in town and
country are intelligent, broad-mind-
ed American citizens. Both sides
have contented themselves in appeal
ing to the intelligence, honesty and
patriotism of that citizenship. The
decision rendered on the 9th of
September will express the senti-
ment and Judgment of the voters
of Canyon county on the issue in
yolved in this campaign. That was
the purpose of the election and that
will be the result. In similar cam
paigns false charges and personali-
ties sometimes cloud the issues TO
ian extent that an honest expression
of judgment is not obtained.
one thlng that can be said Tor the
leaders in the move against the IL
censed liquor traffic is that they are
politicians and playing the political
game from start to finish.
The location of great institu-
ton of learning must necessarily be
established near center of popu-
lation, provided with easy trans
portation facilities and where large
numbers of students can be oonven-

very recently at the religious con

GOV HARMON ON LAWYERS
Says Desire for Wealth. Constitutes a
Danger to the Profession

South Bend, Ind, July Gov.
Judson Harmon of Ohio, speaking to
the graduating class of the law school
of the university of Notre Dame Sat
urday night, discussed the ethics of
the legal profession and declared that
the desire for wealth was the chief
source of danger to the profession. To
young lawyers he said in part:
Listen to no one who suggests that
morals concern the clients only, while
you have to do with legal rights alone
It is true that one may do a moral
wrong by enforcing a legal right and
in such cases the lawyer does not nee
essarily share the blame And there
is no substance in the charge that law
yers must become lax of conscience
because they sometimes uphold the
side of a case which proves to be the
wrong side. But when a lawyer dis
covers that his client is willing to
succeed by ignoble methods or be-
comes convinced that the law Is plain
ly against him, he cannot justify per-
sistence in maintaining his clients
cause. If the matter cannot be com
promised his plain duty is to with
draw.
The chief source of danger to the
profession in these days is the de-
sire for wealth, which, first spreading
elsewhere with amazing speed, has
not left lawyers untouched It's re-
suits are deplorable enough in other
quarters, but work with more deadly
effect among those who stand guard
in the temple of justice. 1t is easier
for the lawyer than for most others
truly to serve the public interest and
that alone. His whole life and train
ing have been in representing others,
and there is nothing more inspiring
than the silent trustfulness of a null
titude of free men, nothing that lies
so sweetly in the breast as the con
seriousness of having spared no effort
to deserve it"

vERMoNr,s CRIME WAVE


merging Vermont makes It look as
though we would really be obliged to
take hold and hang somebody. It is
time for Vermont to stop its Legisla-
ture and courts from putting a prem
ium upon murder and lesser allied
mes.-Burlington Free Press
Just what does the Free Press
mean by accusing the legislature and
the courts of putting premium" on
murder or any other crime? II has
been quite spell since the legisla.
ture has commuted sentence, and,
where the jury has convicted, The
Banner does not recollect any case
where the courts have failed to fix a
penalty commensurate with the
crime.
The Banner is Of the opinion that
the increase in the number of serious
crimes in Vermont, aside from those
due to the presence Of the colored
troops at Fort Ethan Allen, is quite
largely traceable to the stagnatlon
and breaking down of rural towns
and neighborhoods through the emf
grafton of so much of the better and
more active blood either to other
states or to the larger communities
in this state Many a good neighbor-
hood of a previous generation has
been Slapped of its lifebood in this way
and the intermarriage OF the weaker,
Tess active and those inclined to vice
has produced crop of degenerates,
or partial degenerates, that contami-
mates many Vermont towns
There is no way of improving those
who have reached the age OF maturi-
ty and we expect to see this wave of
serious crime continue for some
years to come. 1t is, however. duty
and serious obligation of the state
to see that, where this tendency tow
ard degeneracy exists, every effort is
made to counterfeit it, for the
benefit of the future, even If it in
wolves the necessity of providing
special schools and expert training
of children of desperately poor,
criminal, and mentally or morally
diseased parents. This and good old
Mother Natures own way OF improv-
ing the race through the survival of
the fittest viii in time counterfeit and
overcome the evil which the state has
inherited through no fault of the
present generation, and which, we
have no doubt, our fathers would
have tried to prevent had they
realized the danger.
The situation is like the old theory
concerning the itch in a district
school-no disgrace to have it but
shocking disgrace TO keep 1t.
The first step is to further help the
small, weak, and poor towns to i'm
prove their schools. The second
step is to provide state home for
orphans and other children whom
anybody can see are not getting
fair chance at home under present
conditions The third and most inn
portant step is TO provide new and
rigid marriage laws to prevent, as far
as possible, the marriage of the crimi-
nal, the insane, the degenerate, the
diseased and the weakly vicious. The
Banner believes in physical examina-
ton of suspected cases and, if heces-
sary, the unsexing, under state au-
thority, of persons of criminal classes.
This may seem radical remedy, but
we have little doubt that the future
will see it adopted in all civilized
countries.
