Dissatisfaction With League Endorsements.
1t is inevitable there should be dissatisfaction IN
few places with the endorsements of the Leagle
The League must meet and make the best OF cond-
tons as it finds them. Even good people differ. The
local option forces often divided in their support of
candidates-and honestly That the friends of the
League may understand with what sincerity and under
what necessities the League works in making up its
endorsements we offer these words of explanation.
League Must Adhere to Fundamental Principles
The fundamental thing to understand is that the
Leagues action must be determined by the fact that
it's activities do not extend single campaign,
but many campaigns; not through one year, but
through of years. that this is not BATTLE
but many battles Most Of the misunderstanding
with respect to the Leagues action and its endorse
of candidates arise from the fact that individuals
do not understand that the League must shape its
policies for the whole 1t is SO in any warfare.

been and what he has done temperance-in other
words, his past record. 1t will not do to disregard a
mans record in the legislature. If you do that you
discourage the making of right records 1t is all very
we'll to say that member of the legislature should
right because is right He may do but often
he will not. If votes right in the legislature,
and when he up for denomination reelection
the decent people forget him and refuse to rally to his
support, and the evil elements attack him and defeat
him,-good cannot stay in the legislature. Only
by making it safe for good men to do right the
Of right prevail. This is intensely practical
matter If you really want temperance men IN the
legislature you stand by temperance when
they candidates. and remember that in proportion

exceptions that who right the temperance
question right other questions 1t u.s. therefore,
matter of first Importance that local option voters
should put premium upon the record of who
has had the courage stand right at Springfield on
this question.
League Chooses the Best Possible
There is another thing that needs to be better
understood The Leagues policy is to do the best it
under the circumstances it finds them. AS be-
who wholly acceptable the
League believes that it is not only good politics but
good morals to choose the better man. if he be
not hawless, and recommend and stand by him. The
League believes can't get rid of all the saloons
just want to, there is no good reason
why should not get rid Of just many
In other words it believes in doing the best it
all times and under all circumstances. And in the
selection of candidates it believes in picking the best
at hand though that best be not ideal
And Selling the best possible now, and proceeding
from conquest to conquest, the League is steadily
climbing the heights toward the ultimate goal.
Picks Winning Local Option Candidate if Possible.
The chance of victory is another element that
be taken into consideration AS between two
men, rreproachable in personal character but
with chance of success, and another not so good
but with certain chance of winning, the League should
make of the vote in the legislature even though
it be not possible fully to measure up to the ideal.

Little Stories for Bedtime.
NO ONE BELIEVES PETER RABBIT.
Rv
BY Thornton w. Burgess.

Peter Rabbit sat in his secret place In
the middle Of the old brier patch Peter
was doing some very hard thinking. He
been out the whole night long. But in
stead of sleeping he was wide awake and
thinking and thinking.
You see, early the night before Boomer
the Nighthawk had told Peter Rabbi
that Sammy Jay was way up in the far
away Old Pasture. Boomer had seen him
going to bed there and had come straight
down to tell Peter. This was great news
and Peter could hardly wait for Boomer
to stop talking he was so anxious to
spread the news over the Green Meadows
and through the Green Forest. for Peter
is a great gossip and cannot keep his
tongue still.
So he had hurried this way and that
way telling every one he met how
Sammy Jay had moved away to the Old
Pasture. But no one believed him.
wait and see! Wait and see" said
Jimmy Skunk.
Its just trick" said Bobby Coon.
But Boomer the Nighthawk saw him
up there going to bed and talked with
him. cried Peter Rabbit.
Perhaps he did and then again per-
haps he didn't, replied Bobby Coon,
carefully washing an ear of sweet milky
corn that he had brought down to the
Laughing Brook from Farmer Brown s
cornfield. for Bobby Coon is very neat
and always washes his food before eat
ing. For my part" ne continued, 81
believe that Boomer the N!ghthawk just
made up that story to help Sammy Jay
fool u.s..
But that would be a wrong story

would do anything like that!' cried
Peter.
Just then there was a shrin scream of
Thief! thief! thief"' over in the alder
bushes. 1t certainly sounded like Sammy
Jays voice.
What did tell you? Now what do
you Think cried Bobby Coon.
Peter Rabbit didn't know what to think
and he said so. He left Bobby to eat
his corn and spent the rest of the night
telling every one he met what Boomer
the Nighthawk had said. but. of course,
no one believed 1t. and every one laughed
at him. for hadn't they heard Sammy
Jay screaming that very night?
So now Peter sat in the old brier patch
thinking and thinking when he should
have been asleep. Finally he yawned and
stretched and then started along one of
his private little paths

So Peter hunted and hunted all through

Liberal politicians are not overlooking
with tenderness for the big landlords.
But they are not going to support any
thing which. though aimed at that class,
might just as likely hit the workman
who owns a single house and plot of
ground. He knows there are tens of
thousands of such workmen in Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire alone. and he says
plainly that he is going to do nothing
to upset them.
If Mr. Lloyd George takes up the single
tax he will sp II the party from top to

the leasehoders and makes that one OF
his principal planks he may carry the
party with him. L. III. MOORE.

Though land is not strongly represent

Mr. Gladstone's last cabinet. 1t still has
q fair show. Lord Crewe owns about
%. coo acres. including minerals. in York
shire and Staffordshire: Lord Beauchamp
has about 1000 less. while the colonial
secretary possesses a fine landed estate
in Oxfordshire. which has belonged to
the Harcourts since the days OF the
Normans. Sir Edward Grey also has

May Desert Lloyd George.

A word must be said about the liberal
peers who. having acquired In this gen.
Grafton great fortunes from the pursuit
of trade. commerce and industry. have In
vested large amount Of their savings In
land II Is generally understood that they
have been generous supporters of their
party's funds during the past few years.
Some Of them. 1t is said. are not enam-
ored Of certain Of the measures OF Lloyd
Georges liberalism up-to-date. If the
Chancellor's forthcoming land proposals
do produce a split In the party 1t is pretty
certain that he will not enjoy the sup
port of some Of these gentlemen. The
best known Of the liberal captains OF
industry who have In recent years be-
come extensive owners of land are: Lord
Furness. lord of two manors, owner OF
about 10000 acres Of land and patron of
seven church livings- Lord Joicey owns
estates in Mont gomeryshire and North
umbria. the latter including the historic
seat Of Ford Castle Lord Cowdray. the
Standard Oils biggest rival. has pur-
chased In recent years Cowdray Park.
the estate OF the Perc,vals. EarlS of Egg
mont. In Sussex. and Dunecht. In Aber-
deenshire. which belonged at one time to
Lords Crawford and Balcarres.
Besides these there are Lords Abercon-
way and st. Davids The former Is chair
man Of the Metropolitan Railway Com
Association and of various shipping, coal
and iron companies and owns considerable
estates in several Of the northern coun-
ties OF Wales His possessions include
watering place In Prestatyn. Lord st.
Davids, who Is self-made man as far
his enormous interests In the Argen-
tine. in shipping and In other directions
are concerned, has extensive landed In
terests n PembrOkeshire. where his an
cestors have been seated continuously al
most since the dawn OF British history.
Landowners in the Commons.
There Is a fair number of rank and file
liberals In the house Of commons who
can speak as landlords them selves Lord
Rosebery has just told us that his son,
Mr.. Neil Primrose, has landed stake in
Norfo K. Sir John Emmott Barlow is
lord Of the manor of Bradwell and owner
of the BradweIl Hall estate. in Cheshire
Sir Harry Berney owns about 5000 an
Sir T. c. Warner is an owner to the ex-
tent Of about 400 acres. Mr.. David
Davies. the Croesue of the natives in the
Welsh parliamentary party, is also
landowner. 1t would not be too much
to say that the entirely landless liberal
NJ p is in the minority.
The facts being as stated, Mr. Lloyd
George and his land inquiry committee
will have to be circumspect In their pro-
posals If they wish TO avoid a serious
party split. which would lose him the
men who have been the PRINCIPAL pro-
viders Of the sinews of war The con-
vers alton that goes on daily in the clubs
makes II clear that such propose as
the single tax, land naturalization and
