Hon. J E. Seanlon Of Bee Branch. Nan Barea county. IS one of tue best known farmers and business men iu the state He is man of knowledge. and close observer. patriotic. pro- gressiye citizen. Recently he wrote d letter 10 the Arkansas Democrat of Little Rock. in which he called atten, ton to certain obnoxious features of the proposed State Wide Prohibition act, citing facts not generally known
 The letter which attracted wide spread notice follows:
 Editor Arkansas Democrat:
 have just read the proposed initia- tive petition to prohibit the manufac- ture. sale or giving away liquors of any kind in the state Of Arkansas There is an exception. however, to this act (Section 513l of Kirby's Di- gesD.
 Let us see what that section pro vides: tSection 51SD: This act shall not be construed, as prohibiting the use of wine for saoramental pur- poses. or . prevent the prescribing and furnishing of alcoholic stimulants by regular practicing physici to the sick under his charge, when he may deem the same necessary"
 Personally. l do not know whether whiskey for we'll or sick is good don't use 1t myself Those who have by their initiative. declared that it is essential to the sick. and leave the whole thing in the hands of the doc tors.
 First. l want to have some one ex- plain how the dictor is going 10 get whiskey when it is not allowed to be sold in the state. Under our local option laws a drug store can sell on prescription or for mechanical uses. but Act No. makes no exception ex. cept as to Section 5i31.
 One result only can follow. The doctor must fill his own prescription

by furnishing" as provided in Section 5f3l. The reputable physician Will not do this. perhaps. but the unscru- pulous doctor will. as he has in Maine. Kansas. North Carolina. Georgia and Mississippi. where the Doctors Bar" has become a scandal and disgrace to the profession The reputable phy- sician may prescribe whiskey but If he does not furnish 1t the patient must send out of the state to get it. by which time it may be too late
 Again, The local option law per mits wine or other liquors to be serv- ed to guests in ones own house without profit Sections 5146 and 51is Digest) Act No , repeals that
 The local option law prohibits any one 10 solicit orders for whiskey. etc, In dry counties. personally, or by circular or by advertising (Sec. 5l33 DigesD. Act No. repeals that. So that the whole state can be oyerrun with the agents of whiskey houses in other states, soliciting orders to be shipped in
 The local option law gives the right of search for liquor on information, but expressly exempts private dwell ings from search (Section 5l45. This section is repealed by Act No 2
 Under Act No. a farmer can not make cask of wine from his own grapes for his own use. or barrel of cider for his own use from his own apples, but he can send to St. Louis and buy it. He k free to buy. paying profit to distillers, brewers. jobber. retailer and express company what hs is prohibited from making of his own homemade material
 My advice to the people of Arkan- sas is to vote local option, for when & county votes local option. she can en- force the laws. but when you put A law on people, that they don't want. you never can get that law enforced.
