elect enough progressive republicans

tariff commission to study the ques-

No CAUSE KNOWN FOR
HOPE IRWIN SUICIDE
Cuts Throat In Early Morning
While His Wife Had
Gone For Help.

With no apparent cause for his &C.
ton, Mr.. Hope Irwin committed suicide
early Wednesday morning at his home
on Moon street. His wife had been up
only two hours before to attend to one
of her children and had returned to bed
where her husband seemed to be sleep
ing as soundly as ever. She was
awakened by a blow on the head
and saw her husband kneeling on the
bed beside her and striking at her head
with small toy bat that belonged to
their little boy. Mrs. Irwin asked her
husband what was the matter but he
made no reply and she became fright
ened and ran from the house to call for
help.
When help came and the party en-
tered the house they found Mr.. Irwin
lying on the floor with his throat cut.
A blood stained razor was found in a
drawer in the room.
1t is the belief of DIR. Parkinson, who
attended Mrs. Irwin that Mr.. Irwin had
probably dreamed something or was
suffering from some temporary ailment
and was unaware of his action.
He had been in i'll health for several
years and suffered from epilepsy. 1t
is said he had not slept for three nights
before his suicide.
The funeral will be held at the Epis-
copal church Thursday afternoon at
a O'Clock. The pall-bearers will be
Judge D. P. Lester, r. De T. Law
renee, Dan Anderson, George Griffin,
R. M. Brumby and A. A. Irwin.
Mr.. Irwin was son of Capt. Robt. C.
Irwin of Cobb county and besides his
wife leaves four young children. He
was 36 years of age.

CHEER OF THE OLD HOME
Something Which Every Man ard
Woman Should Be Able to Look
Back Upon.

1t would be blessing IL we parents
could just reflect that it may be that
the only cheer in life which our chill
dren will get is the cheer of the old
nome, writes Frank w. Gunsaulus.
They are hurrying out into the world
which has no time to make them
happy. II they are fortunate, as the
world says, they will probably have
homes, where old-fashioned and romp-
ing cheerfulness would skin its shins
against the furniture or break the
Louis XIV. chair. Blessed old DAYS
and most wholesome to look back
upon, are those when the hearty laugh
of father would not split the lace cur
ta1ns, and when mother could have
two hig, healthy children upon her
lap while she was sitting down, with
safety to all parties, in her rocker. No
coin on earth costs SO little to mint
and goes so far in paying life's heavy
expenses as Good Cheer. Pessimists
are made before children are ten
years of age, and pessimism comes
when q child cannot turn golden
laugh into ready cash for life's poverty
and Its relief. We talk about the cru
city of fathers depriving q child
OF sufficient clothing. 1t is too bad:
but child's toss would better be
rudy and his ears tingle with cold
than to have a home with winter In
the atmosphere and the smiles all
freezing to death.
No child Is prepared for the SUI
premely serious things of life who
cannot laugh away all the COLLINS and
ghosts and break with the shining
wand Of Good Cheer the circle drawn
around him by any giant.

Wvcliffa's PRAYERS.

Among recent sales of relics and
curios in London was that Of Wycliffe's
Prayers Of the Bible" Of the date Of
1927 or thereabout. "The rare old
black letter of this work puts it," says
the noted authority on curios, J. F.
Blacker, Eat once among the scarcest
examples of old "F1ete Strete' print
ing. The noble old divine died in 1884,
shortly after he had completed his
translation of the Bible into English.
These prayers were imprinted just
about the time when the first English
Bible was published by Tyndale in the
years 1526-1532. The six parts realized
ease, though a copy Of each of the
FIRST four parts sold some time ago for
R4e0."

There is city OF 1000 population in Illinois where
there are many saloons. At the last local option cleo
ton in that city the voted to retain the saloon
by majority Of several hundred 1t is conclusive that
under the township local option law they will probably
never again be able to get rid of them. But county
option will do it. The city is located in county that
without question would give handsome majority
against the saloon if the people of the entire county
had the privilege of voting that question.
And yet-strange to say-the people of this city
are so nearsighted in their view of local option law
that they give practically aid to the Anti-Saoon
League in its state fight for county option. County
option is their only hope their only salvation from
loon domnation and yet they prefer to fight losing
battle home rather than exert themselves for the
sake of winning battle at Springfield
1t is strange thing that it should be difficult
to enlist communities like this in the present county
option contest. For instance in the city of which
speak the Anti-Saoon League is unable to the
cooperation of the churches They will not admit
the Anti-Saoon League to their pulps they will not
lift pound in the fight. And yet they realize
that the shortcut the only cut, the elimination of
their saloons is through the Anti-Saloon Leagues
paign for county option. And so we say they
shor-sighted, nearsighted, for they have failed to
grasp the situation and improve the of their
salvation. If they really want to get rid of their
saloons they should without delay, put their
money and work into the present legislative

The Saloon BRACES Business

One Of the stock arguments OF the apOOg1StS tor
the saloon is that it draws business When it is pro
posed to the saloons out the cry raised that it
will kill the town. drive away business. Farmers
and others will trade in town where they cannot
buy booze. When it is proposed to establish saloons
in town. roseate pictures painted OF the business
drawing power of the saloon. Give saloons and
we'll have live town." Take away saloons and YOU
kill the town." "All the trade will go to neghboring
towns which are liberal enough to support the open
saloon
Well this argument that the saloon draws bust
ness seems to have had vlndlcatlon within the
last few weeks. Rockford voted "dry" at the recent
election and on May 2 Rockfords hfty-four saloons
went out of business. 1t is bit early to determine
lust how this will effect business in Rockford But
returns already pouring in as to the effects OF
dry" Rockford upon neighboring towns. Freeport
Belvidere and Pecatonca all neighbors OF Rock
ford, with interurban communication. According to
the stock arguments these towns should all profit at
the expense of Rockford And it that they do
profit with vengeance. Pecatonica voted wet when
Rockford voted "dry" the only wet spot in the
county One would expect the village to receive
Rockfords thirsty hordes with open arms, would he
prospect of saloon prosperity. Anyhow the daily
press informs us The board has prevented any great
influx of thirsty men from Rockford by fixing the
closing hour at o'clock"
Belvdere with its twenty-one saloons, would also
be expected according to the stock argument to re-
ceive Rockford's suffering multitudes with royal
welcome. They are hocking there, the Rockfordtes,
with parched threats. Business must be booming and
Bevidere should be happy What then, means this
lament also found in the daily press: "Belvdere

citizens are not taking kindly the hundreds of Rock
ford thirsty who visit their city, especially on
SATURDAY. evenings They say the result would have
been different if the election there had been post
Doned until one day after Rockford became dry If
Belyideres election on the wet and dry question had
followed Rockfords Belvidere would have gone dry
by large majority"
What ingratitude is this! Belvdere with the
chance of lifetime to build itself UP at the expense
of poor FOOLISH decaying, dry Rockford, whining
because Rockford forces prosperity upon 1t.
Freeport where the saloons are so thoroughly en-
trenched that it not even thought worth while to
make fight against them, must certainly appreciate
the blessings of the saloons and their power to draw
trade from dry towns Freeport might be expected
might it not according to the stock arguments to meet
the thirsty Roclordite the city limits and give him
the freedom Of the city, glad must it be to get his
trade? But what then is this that read in glowing
readiness:
Magistrate Kintzel of Freeport declares he will fine
drunks hailng Rockford $40 for first ofense and YES
Old fine only ST. Freeport wants to check
