tically the whole state is now under
absolute prohibition. The law is bet
ter enforced than ever before and a
great deal of credit is due Superin-
tendent Watkins of the State Enforce
ment league. No one seems to be
suffering, the people are prospecting
under these conditions and with the eX-
ception of two counties there is no de-
mand for license. We NAV well be
proud Of North Dakota's magnificent
record under prohibition.
Splendid as these esults are. l be-
lieve the greatest result of prohibition
Is the breaking of the political dom
ination of the saloon in this state,
which has made it possible to elect
upright men to office, and to secure in
our legislature the passage Of most
progressive laws for the moral and
physical health of the people, and bet
ter than all, we have a generation of
clean, sturdy, young men and women,
who have never known the liquor
traffic, except as an outlaw or the
liquor seller except as a criminal. and
who have had the opportunity to de-
yelop their God-giVen powers in ali
atmosphere, untainted by the moral
poison of a legalized evil.
The Brewers Year Book contains
valuable information as to the effect
of prohibition upon the sale of intoxI-
eating liquor. From figures given in
the last year book the following sta
tistics are compiled, where ciphers are
used the amount was SO small they did
not consider it worth taking note Of.

probably encountered the sentiment
that city people are not hospitable.
But here is an item from Kansas City
quoting the manager of a municipal
pawnshop as saying hat city people
are pawning their valuables in order
to pay for entertaining their guests.
That indicates that some city people,
though they nay not be willing hosts,
are ready to make sacrifices rather
h admit that they are financially
unable to entertain.
How many there are of such people
there is no means of knowing, but it
is entirely safe to guess that there are
a good many, both in. the city and
country. who are inconvenience. if

consumption in prohibition states in
1911 was SO gallons, in license states

MINERS DECLARE NEW STRIKE
IN w. VIRGINIA

IN w. VIRGINIA
Charleston, W.. Va, June 16.-At
mass meetings of the union miners at
Bskdale, and in the mountains above
Kayford, war was declared anew, and
orders issued that no union man
should go into the workings today.
These orders have been carried out.
The union leaders say that this
action is forced by the operators. In
good faith the miners accepted the
compromise offered by Gov. Hatfield,
and ordered their men back to work,
but they say that the operators in
place of employing all hands as they
promised, blacklisted and turned
back all who had been prominent in
the strike.
State Senator Samuel B. Mont
gomery, attorney for the union, de-
clared that only yesterday four union
miners had been terribly beaten by
armed guards.
1t is feared that every union man ,
on Paint and Cabin Creek and in the
New River district will join this
strike, affecting between 10000 and
$4,000, and.tha the result will eclipse
any strike that has gone before.
Seventy witnesses are on hand be-
fore the senate coal strike investigat-
ing committee to refute the state
ments of the union miners that the
coal operators deliberately shot up
their camp at Holly Grove from an
armored train with machine gun.
Their testimony viii be especially
directed at Lee Calvin, union wit
ness, who stated that Quinn Morton,
millionaire operator, not only rode on
the armored train that shot up Holly
Grove, but that after the shooting
Morton ordered the train backed up
again so that they could give them
another round"
The testimony of the miners is
practically closed and that of the
operators began today. The feeling
