OH, the other hand, the first weeK
Of the wet regime was marked: by
many arrests outside Of the drunk
class, but. which were closely relat-
ed to the jags in that they had their
origin through intoxication.
The drys and vets have different
ways Of explaining the slump In
DRINKS. The vets claim that there Is
just as much drunkenness as before,
but; that it is secret now, or else that
the thirsty one gets what he. wants
in another city. The VETS also claiua
that more whisky Is drunk now than
was before when the saloons were
open and the milder drinks like beer,
ale and porter were easily procured.
The figures indicate, however, that
the police are rlgidly enforcing the
law. Sosfar there have been no COM
plants OF blind pigs and bootlegging.
A rigid enforcement. Of the law is
what most Of the license men !: ara

The Way 1t Always Works

The expected is happening.
Grimes and misdemeanors of all
kinds are decreasing in Rockford.
This isn't surprising to the no.
license voter. He had seen it
work that way before. He was
confident that it would work that
way again. He isn't disappointed.
He can exultantly say to his "wet"
neighbor, II told you So"
This decrease in police court
business is but one of the numer-
Gus benefits accruing from sa-
loonless policy. It's good effects

BRITISH PROTEST
PAvES THE WAY FOR
PANAMA BILL DELAY.
Long Debate Certain and
Action on Measure May Go
Over Until December.

WASHINGTON. July 12.--"Purely a
reached the importance Of diplo-
matte crisis" was the way the State
Department to-day summed up the
situation created by Englands protest
against the Panama Canal bin The
Department made II clear that It's sole
will be merely that of receiving and
transmitting agent-to receive Great
Britain's formal protests, and forward
them. without action, to the Senate.
where the Panama bill IL now pend.
Ing.
The principal development to-day
was the possibility that Great Brit
aims protest against the legislation
may cause postponement Of its con-
sideration until next session. Senator
Brandegee. Chairman OF the Senate
Inter- Oceanic Canals Commute. In
charge Of the bill. however. said It
will be called up Immediately after
tariff legislation IL considered. But
protracted debate in the Senate 10 GER
tain. This will give the Britons
ample time to complete their attack
upon the measure. Several Senator'S
also expressed the belief that as so
much diversity OF opinion Ia evident.
and anxiety for an early adjournment
Of Congress. almost unanimous. the
whole affair may 60 over until the
December session.
The Hague Tribunal IL the last re-
sort of Great Britain In it's opposition
to the bill. But 1t was pointed out
to-day this arbitration council cannot
be invoked unless the Objectionable
measure II finally enacted into law
and signed by the President. Then.
diplomatic experts said, to-day. the
new law will supersede any treaty
obligations and becomes paramount to
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. under
which Great Britain Is acting.
Free tolls to American shipping Is
now known to be the principal point
OF the British objections. Proposed
barring of railroad-owned ships from
the canal Is regarded as merely a col
lateral and not an important British
exception. 1t was thought by MEM
bers of the Senate Canals Committee
that the Canadian Pacific railway In
! spired the protests because Of its
| ownership OF big fleets OF vessels, but
| Il was evident to-day that the entire
AFFAIR Is being handled direct from the
British Foreign Office at London.
