Beware of Inconsistencies

There is not a mar in the state, but who will admit, Hon.J. H. Hine- mon four years ago, declared him- self for Statewide Prohibition. in his race for Governor against ex- W. I. Kirby and our late George Washington Donaghey. At this time, Rev. E. A. Tabor (deoeased infiuentially) was editor of The oearchhght, so called Temper ance paper; and Col. Geo. Thorn burgh was president of the Anti Saloon League, both supposed to be, AT THAT TIME, standard bearers of the Temperance cause in our state. But nothing to say for Hinemon and his platform. Col. kept mute, E. A. Tabor began at once to work for George. the local optionist, the same man for whom the Whiskey men voted and worked. Four years has past, Honest George. the Tax-Dodger, has bank rupted our state, nursing his State House Saloon, looking at his S7O0 picture. and now on his political death-bed. he cries T am a State vide Prohibitionist, Col. Thorn 5urgh and Tabor say, I'll take the same George. since tis on=you. So let it be understood, that Tabor and the Gel. are state Widers. since George struck his elbow. and his month went off. Beware of imitation. How can any Temper ance worker have faith in such rotten demogogry? If Joe r. had ordered 'Soda-Pop." do you really suppose Colonel would have taken the same?
 Yours for clean politics.

this sentiment was presented when
prominent Paris newspapers started a

France has reached the definite con-
clusion that the aeroplane will he her
great weapon i'm time Of war. and the

an officer OF high rank to command

Major General William II. Carter,

General Carter had been picked to
command the central division, but
these plans might he changed easily.

He is only ~ years old and Will not
