final WORD O. TO
The VOTERS

For weeks The Colorado Business
Mems Home Rule League has pointed out
the evils and harmful results of Blanket
Prohibitory Laws in the states that have
already tried them.
We have shown that II American
commonwealths have rejected State Wide
Prohibition after sad experiences.
We have shown the deplorable
conditions now existing in the eight re-
naming states.
We have proven our contention that
Colorado's present effective Local Option
Law is far better than State Wide Pro-
hibition by quoting to you the actual
opinions of the country's greatest leaders
and thinkers - men of national promi-
nence-whose observations are worthy of
your serious consideration.
We have shown that State Wide
Prohibition would mean big economic loss
to Colorado, would deprive every COM
munity Of the right of self-government,
would destroy our valuable tourist business
and would No! stop the sale of liquor.

ENGLISH HOUSES
 ID BE NUMBERED The Name System Cause of
 Great Confusion so MANY RIDICULOUS Every Owner of House Is Seized With Passion to Name It Some
 ing "Fancy"-Movemen
 Being Opposed
so MANY RIDICULOUS

London, october 12.-(Speclal)-Quit a strong movement is on foot in this country-and none too soon, either--to put an end to the rather silly but almost uni-
 versal custom of giving names to private houses, and to adopt the eminenty more sensible if less poetic one of numbering them instead as is done in the United States and most other parts of the world.
 Not of course that houses aren't num- mered at all over here-you have only to remember "No. 5 John street" 10 be assured of that-but the average British householder is so inordlnately fond of christening his habitation something or other tand then putting the name on his stationery that perhaps half the houses in a street will be simply "Glensides' or "Bellevues" or what-not, with a result that stranger who is looking for par ticular house and only knows the name of it, or even its number if 1t has one. may have to roam the street from end to end before he finds it, which. of course is nuisance and productive of profanity. You can imagine, for instance, the delight

| of sitting in A taxi-cab in a long and | lonely suburban road on dark night, | with the meter industriously ticking off tuppences, while the driver scrutlnizes each of the badly lighted houses to dis cover if 1t is "Lyndhurst" or "Ivanhoe' or ''The Nook" according to the taste or your friend.
 Letters by the thousands miscarry for lack of a definite number toedeliver them to, and besides it Is manifestly ridiculous to have rows upon rows of cheap, jerry built villas awaking as "Blenheims, "CarItons" and Oranges" and so at last large section of the public here Is In favor of having every dwelling numbered and known by its number.
 Of course in .ths most conservative Of countries such step in the direction Of convenience and common sense Is meet ing with logged opposition, and prominent among the objectors Is the great G. K. Chesterton, who thinks the proposed re- form grossly materialistic. Chesterton, whose house at Beaconsfeld Is named "Overroads," (but who still uses plain figures to designate his telephone address) complains that they will be wanting to number people next, but as the author of "Manaliye" lives In a paradoxfcal world of his own creation nobody pays much at tention to his views on practical matters.
 Some of the little people who set up housekeeping Tn the SuDuTDs, tlL IS lHeio that the "Nooks" and "Ivanhoes' most abound) take the naming of their 2x4 rookeries terribly seriously. The writer heard one of them demand of everybody in a drawing room recently whether they thought him over-ambitious in giving the name of one of Stevenson's island homes to the semi-detached cottage in garden suburb' which he had taken on the in- stallment plan, or whether It would be better to name it one of seven or eight other things?
 Such folk are fair game for cartoonists and other funny men, who are having g. lot of sport with the suburbanite and his villa. One of the comic artists, for in- stance, draws attention to the general lack of appropriateness In house naming. He shows that house named "Bellevue" is certain to command a view only of 0 railroad track or slum, while "Ihe Pines" or "The Films" is certain to be in a treeless locality.

 Do not regard this system of economy as a burden, but as a pleasure and the duty of a wife to her husband.

Illiteracy in United States

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
 Compared With the enlightened nations of Europe we are far behind in compul- sorry education, but 1t is only necessary to consult statistics of the last 50 years to note how great has been the progress there. We were ahead a century ago. We have lost ground because we have not os.lpelled education as have European nations.
 Nevertheless, the showing is inspiring. It seems certain that a score Of years hence illiteracy will be so rare in this country as to be negligible. The army of boys and girls going to school is invinci- bleTducation is not everything in this world, but without it little of value can be achieved. The cost of education per capita is now double what 1t was a gem eration ago. It will double again in the next 90 years.

This subject was the keynote of series of brilliant addresses at the banquet rendered the delegates in this city by the southern jurisdiction of the United States at the New Willard hotel.
 The banquet was one of the most bril- liant Masonic gatherings it is said ever held in the United States. Sitting to- gether under the flags of their various countries were representatives of the Scottish Rite supreme councils of g na- lions.
 They listened to and applauded the pleadingssof brilliant orators for more enduring peace among the nations of the world, a peace that shall be brought about along the lines suggested by the recent peace councils and thoroughly out lined by Sir John NJ. Gibson, sovereign grand commander of the supreme council of the Dominion of Canada
 The banquet was presided over by James D. Richardson, formerly repre- sentative in Congress from Tennessee and now at the head of the Masonic order in the United States in Washington, as toastmaster.
 Many notable men in the United States were present as well as from foreign countries, but 1t was Sir John Gibson, in responding to the sentiment English speaking councils" who aroused the en- thusiasm of the delegates by making most eloquent plea for worldwide peace.

 Dr. Quick of St. Paul, affirms that the removal of Adams rib was really a sur gical operation for the purpose of adjust ing something that had gone wrong with the mechanism of the first citizen. Per haps so The view leads to unsatisficd inquiry as to the anesthetic of the day, the hospital service and whether filtration with the nurse was then in vogue.

Lutheran Visitor, 25th.
The Luther league of st. PauPs
church held a meeting Sunday even
ing, April 81, which showed much in
terest on the part of the young people
in the matter of Christian education,
the subject which the league had chos-
en- upon it's own initiative for consider
alton, with special reference to the in
terests of Newberry college. Several
we'll prepared papers were read and
two addresses delivered. The papers
read were, Christian Education as
Related to the Home" Miss Erin Kohn; !;
Christian education in a refreshing
State" Miss Helen Lufburrow; ad-
dress, "Christian Education as Related
to the Church, NJ. L. Kester; reading,
an appropriate selection, Miss Blossie
Kreps Prof. S. J. Derrick, of NeWber-
ry college, was the speaker invited to
present the general cause of Christian
education. Prof Derrick made it a
point in his interesting address to COM
mend the Luther league as an organ
ization which would be exceedingly
helpful in the work of all our congre-
cations. He presented the cause of
Christian education in refreshing
and vigorous manner, and greatly de-
lighted the large congregation. The
musical part of the program was we'll
rendered under the direction Of Prof.
C. H. Wiesepape, the organist of st.
Paul's church. The offering was for
the new endowment fund OF Newberry
college and amounted to $3.50.

For the editor of the Columbia State

Record is unwilling to take second
place in detestation of "Bleaseism," "
so called, and would be glad to cast
the deciding ballot against the re-

try to blind US to the polite amenities
of life, and we are free to say that if
great Editor Gonzales had not been
a member of the monument commits
sion an invitation to the unveiling
would have been graciously extended
to the governor of South Carolina.
And the greatest pity of it all is this:

gineered by the editor of the State,

Magistrate Fowles has sentenced to
80 days in the jail here one Rev. S. P.
Mccarthy, who claims that he was at
one time pastor of number of smaller
Methodist churches in the South Caro-
lima conference. The sentence was
on the charge that the man issued a
check for $50, which wasn't good and
which he didn't make good in 80 days,
as required by law. The prisoner was
engaged in running a small store in
the city.
