If more liquor is sold where there
are no saloons than where there are,
would brewers, distillers and whole
sale dealers. who own about seventy
five per cent of all saloons, pay license,
rent, taxes, insurance, attorneys fees,
and contribute large sums Of money to
influence the press, to publish and dis
tribute literature, and in other ways to
obtain license, all to lessen the amount
of their sales? Would the liquor men
now be maintaining five national or
CARNATIONS al heavy expense to op-
pose all prohibitory measures, if such
measures did not interfere with the
traffic? Would they keep an expensive
body a t the national capital to urge
the restoration of the canteen or army
saloon, and to prevent a prohibitors
clause in the statehood bill for Okla
homa and Indian Territory if they were
not financially interested?
Are beer wagons and speak easies

the open saloon? Do not the records
of hundreds of towns show that sa-
looms do not lessen these nuisances
but affords additional temptation to
drink. and Is the spawning place OF
the most degrading vices?
How do saloons help a town? Dc
they make better fathers. husbands
sons or brothers? Do they make
mothers, wives and children comforta-
BILE and happy? Do they help to buil6
up churches and make it easy for par

ALL NATIONS ARE AFFLICTED
With Increased Cost of Living and
President Taft Wants to Know the
Reason and the Remedy

Washington, Feb 3-President Taft
in q message TO Congress yesterday
urged an international inquiry into the
high cost Of living. The president ask
ed authority 10 invite the nations of
the world 10 a conference in this city
or elsewhere TO make plans for the in
vestigation of the high prices that
have so distressed the people Of the
world
Mr. Taft also urged the appoint
ment Of federal commission to make
I'searehing inquiry into the subject of
industrial relations"
For some years past" said the pres
ident, 1.-The high and steadily increas-
ing cost Of living has been a matter of
such grave public concern that l deem
it of great public interest that an in
ternationaI conference he proposed AT
this time, 10 be submitted to the various
governments. for an international in
quiry into the high cost of living. its
extent, causes. effects, and possible
remedies.
There is: no doubt but that a COM
mission could be appointed of such I'M
| prejudiced and impartial persons, ex-
perts in investigation of economic
facts. that a great deal of very valua-
Bile light could be shed upon the rea-
| sons for the high prices that have Sc
distressed the people of the world, and
| Information given upon which action
might be taken TO reduce the cost OF
| living.
Those who have conducted investi-
cations, have found that the phenome-
non Of rising prices is almost if not
quite general throughout the world
/ but they are baffied in the attempt tc
| trace the causes by the impossibility
/ of making any accurate internationa,
comparisons. This is because, in spite
| of the number of Investigations al
ready made, we are still without ade-
quate data and because as yet no two
countries estimate their price levels or

The fight for the good and the true;

And there's a soldiers work 10 do.

Give me patience. Lord, for a steady

And a logged faith that Will not

Come victory or defeat.

I loathe, and must dare TO smite.
And when with earth and it's strife

With a clearer field for the good and
