out saloons than with them. It has
been tried and We know the results.
Business has been better, there have
been many less arrests for drunken

expenses have been greatly decreased.
homes have been happier, wives and
children have been better clothed and
fed. 1t has been safer for our wives on
the streets-and altogether better con-

Why do you want to be party to

The responsibility isn't in he least
relieved because you say Whisky Is
being sold anyway" That is a make
shift excuse. 1t isn't being sold IN
nearly such large quantities, and the
violators eventually will land up
against it. Stealing is going on, too,
but no one thinks Of asking the re-
peal Of the law. Mahaska county has
recently organized an anti-horse thief
association to prevent horse stealing
and bring to punishment the offenders!
Isn't is astonishing. then, the num-

once more and the law strictly en-

When the saloon petition fight was
on before. some persons protested 10
deeply regret that the temperance peo-
pie had seen fit to fight it and thus
place the city in great turmoil. But
now that the saloon people nave
brought on the fight, We wonder what
position these same people will take!
With many people it makes a great
difference whose OK is gored.
A large number of the saloon adVo-

MIR. BRANT's CHARGES.


Dave Brant, of the Iowa City Re
publican, has come in his paper with
charges that the capitol extension
bill as a land grab and that it will
cost the state twenty millions of dol
lars before the work is completed. In
our humble judgment Mr.. Brant takes
an altogether biased view of the mat
Ter,
He spent most of his time during
the session Of the last legislature
lobbying against the five mile law
prohibiting saloons within five miles
of state educational institutions ana
which in his opinion and that of hs
friends was Injurious to his home
town Of Iowa City. The bill became
a law despite Mr.. Brant and he be-
came so wrathy that he threatened to
withdraw from the republican party
Now he seems to be attenl pting TO be
smear the eeislature and takes the
capitol extension bill as his cloak.

ter as to whether the latter was going
to be left alone in a dark room to go

should be afraid. Remember that God
is here all of the time; and, besides
you have your dolly. Now, go to
sleep like a good little girl"

BILBO AID HOBBS
CONTINUED from Page One.)

Bilbo will file with the circuit clerk
list of 300 names to be summoned as
witnesses for Governor Bilbo. While
no announcement has been made, it is
understood many of these live near his
home and that they are to testify that
at the time Of the alleged crime Bilbo
was at his home in Poplarville.
Just what Senator Hobbs defense
will be is not known. He has sat i'm
passive through the trial, frequently
smoking and reading or whispering
with friends. When asked about the
trial he has declined to make state
ments and has not seemingly been wor-
ried over the outcome.
The state largely based its resistance
to change of venue upon the fact
that prejudgment ofthe case was i'm
possible, the people not knowing the
nature Of the testimony against the &C.
cused. This is true. 1t is probable
that J. d. Thames, the district attor-
ney, is the only man in Vicksburg
who knows the entire testimony. 1t is
said all of it was not placed before
the grand jury and that even associate
attorneys are in partial ignorance OF
the testimony.

will play large part in the trial. So
