mer Head of Indiana State Dis
cusses County option.

Former Governor Hanly arrived iii
here from st. Peter where he last
night delivered his lecture on THE
Patriotism of Peace" before Il large
audience at Gustavus AdOlphus col
lege.
Mr.. Hanly when seen by The Free
Press stated that he would deliver
the same lecture here tonight II is
a civic lecture addressed to a civic
concience He says that he does not
speak from a manuscript and that
while he has delivered this lecture
a good many times that he does
not believe he ever spoke exactly the
same words in any two lectures. He
varies his remarks as occasion may
demand.
Mr. Hanly is famous as the county
option governor Of Indiana, he hav-
ing called special session Of the
Legislature and pushed through Il
county option bill. The governor said
that he believes i'm county option and
thinks that county people should
have the right to vote out the liquor
traffic. He declared this is, in keep
ing with American movements and
is thoroughly an American institu-
ton. He had not made a study of
the county option situation in this
state.
Mr.. Hanly states that politically
he is a rpDubican and he believes
that President Taft has given a
much better administration than he
has been given credit for. He thinks
that while Taft is not q good fighter,
and while he may not have accom-
plished all he desired, that he OBJ
tanned from the last congress, more
legislation for the peoples good than
has been secured for some time.
Governor Hanly is pleasing gen.
tleman to meet and opens his heart
