Who Oppose All Reform

There are many counts in the in
dlctment against the saloon, but one
OF the heaviest of all is the persistent
opposition of the liquor traffic to
every progressive measure. The
liquor trade upheld the British House
of Lords and opposed the effort to
give the people control OF the govern
ment. The trade in America is array
ing itself against the commission plan
of city government. 1t has fought the
initiative and referendum and recall in
every state and city 1t is fighting
the woman's suffrage movement by
every weapon within its reach. 1t bit
terly fought the adoption of the
woman's suffrage amendment in Ore.
gon. According to the Beverage
Trade News, the liquor men are open
ly fighting the adoption of the wom-
ans suffrage amendment in Kansas.
1t says that if the women have the
right to vote there never will be
chance for the return of the saloon to
the state. 1t closes an article with
the statement that "the women are
about 10000 to for prohibition"
Evidently the way to better govern
ment lies across the grave of the
liquor traffic-Ex.

collision he was crushed and mangled
with those whom he had tried to save.
Taken from the wreck a short time
after, the hero spoke no word about
himself or friends, but murmured,
brokenly, in dying anguish: Put out
the signals for the other train"
There is another century speeding
toward us along the track of Time.
Don't you almost hear the rumble of
the train? Can't you catch the distant
whistle of that Twentieth Century Ex-
press coming along behind us at
more than lightning speed? We of the
Nineteenth have suffered pain and al
most ruin by the collision of our best
beloved with the grinding engine of
the liquor traffic. Our cycle is almost
at an end. God grant that with de-
voted loyalty we may put out the
signals for the other train;' that for
the Twentieth Century, so full of
light and life, whizzing toward us so
rapidly, we may wave aloft in friendly
warning the electric torch of scienti-
nc temperance instruction, and turn
on the glowing headlight of prohibi-
tory law.-Exchange

Cos of One Spree

1T won't hurt you if you let it
alone" That used to be the great
argument against prohibition. 1t was
claimed that every man had right to
judge for himself whether liquor
would hurt him or not, and that those
who were afraid of it could escape all
risk by letting it alone. No thinking
man could use this argument, because
the drunkard's wife and family and all
those who are in any way dependent
on his loyalty or on his level-headed-
ness must suffer for his sin. A very
terrible illustration of the danger
which other people may incur because
one man drinks was presented by
train wreck in this state few days
ago. The Louisville Courier ournal
hates the idea of prohibition, and that
makes its recognition of the disastrous
consequences of a spree the more
telling. 1t shows by the fact of past
excuse for the accident in question,
but takes care not to strike at the root
of the evil in its suggestion for the
prevention of similar accidents. 1t

stood amid the storm motioning for

Bryan asserted his willingness to re-

when Sulzer stated it, but he an
ncunced the chair hears no objection
Bryan made his way to the platform
through the sweating mob in the aisles
a round of cheers greeted him as ne
took the platform.
Bryan read from a prepared state
ment. He said Nebraska had always
been a progressive state. In this con-
VentiOn. he said, the progressive senti-
ment was overwhelming and no can
didate would have a chance If known
not to be progressive The resolution
adopted against any candidate sub
servient to Morgan, Ryan and Belmont
showed the desires of the convention,
Mr.. Bryan said. The voc of New
York represented the wishes of one
man. Charles f. Murphy. declared
Bryan, and he represented the same
interests that sought to dominate the
Chicago convention. He and his as
sociates of the Nebraska delegation, he
said, were unwilling to accept the
name of any man who was receiving
the benefit of Mr.. Murphy's leadership.
Shouts of approval constantly inter
rupted Bryan with occasional pariia-
mentary protests, but he pushed ON.
