The Ladysmith News Budget com
ments favorably on the fact that the
campaign thus far has been free OF
personalities and mud-slinging. This
would be an ideal kind of cam
paign and is possible only when the
characters of all the candidates are
clean. But when a candidate with
reputation that is a stencil in the
nostrils of all good citizens presents
himself, it is the duty of an UNI
trammeled press to oppose him and
expose him. Will you do it Bro. Bell?
Hawkins Reporter
We certainly shall not support such
a candidate.
If the Reporter knows of such a
candidate, let it get busy and expose
him. The News Budget does not feel
called upon to rip anyone up the back
as yet, and on general principles
if we cannot boost we prefer not to
knock The Reporter seems to be
taking a hidden shot at someone.
The News Budget doesen't believe
in that kind of methods. If the Re-
porter can show wherein some can
didate will not make good in the
office he aspires to, why doesn't it
let loose instead of trying to ''let
George do it?''

The Christian Instructor of Phil

hibition Conventions:
We have devoted scant space to
politics. single paragraph to the
disappointing Republican convention
and merely a column or so to the
character and personality of the
Democratic nominee 1t now be comes
us to mention the convention of that
third party, the ticket of which some
of us have advocated and voted for
years the Prohibition party.
It's eleventh National Convention
met in Atlanta city recently and NOM
mated Eugene w. Chafin of Arizona
for President and the Rev. Aaron
S. Watkins of Ohio, for Vice-Pres-
ident The Prohibition Party has
one clear and unmistakable advan-
tage over the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties-it can give clear ton
que to the faith that is within it
it stands for something definite and
knows what it stands for. 1t is COM
monty asserted that similar sufficient
and clear reason cannot be given for
the other two great parties.
The names Of James Black and
John Russell and others who formed
that little band in those early years
after the Civil War will go down in
history with the names of Wendall
Phillips, William Lloyd Garrison and
other reformers of the early days
Perhaps it is not out of place to
remark that the Christian voter who
groups himself with these people, VIII

right, year after year, and have never

stantly growing interest as the great
moral issue of the day, he will not
have thrown his vote away

A Perpetual License

Notwithstanding the shallow, hypo-
critical claims of the liquor traffic
that they are willing to trust their
business to the people, their whole
method of operation, says the Amer
lean Issue, is precisely the reverse.
They find it easier to control the
officials elected by the people than
the electors themselves. For this
reason they absolutely and uniform
ly oppose the submission of the Ii
quor traffic to popular vote. They
spare no pains in any instance to
prevent the enactment of legislation
clothing the people with this power.
In all local prohibition contests they
vociferate loudly in favor of license
or some regulatory system by which
the issue will be taken from the
hands Of the people and given into
the hands of the court
A further step in this direction is
seen in the cry raised by the liquor
people in sundry quarters for a per-
petual individual license. The claim
is put forth for this new scheme that
the annual scramble for license is
beneath the dignity (save the mark
of the saloon keeper. The purpose
is manifestly not only to take the
granting of licenses out of the hands
of the court, thus making the license
as far as possible beyond the reach
of any temperance sentiment that
| may exist in the community.
That it will be many moons before
these liquor spouters attain this re-
suit however, as an Illustration of
an ambitious scheme in the part of
the liquor interests and their persis-
tent efforts to remove their business
as far as possible from the power of
| the people.
