The Point at Issue In
the Uet and Dry Fight
BY L. J. HOLE

II would seem that in our wet
and dry discussions We have ar
rived at a point where diversity OF
opinion may be reduced TO a mini.
mum. Nothing at this time is more
desirable than clarity OF vision in
regard to the real issue which con.
fronts us.
While the defender Of the use OF
alcoholic drinks ana the champion Of
the saloon are sim with us. yet the
Immediate point Of contest has gone
beyond the advocate OF personal
liberty" or OF tho validity OF ur
saloon as an institution. In our louE
fought battle We have broken down
the outer defcnccs OF morality a6l

economic necessity have crumblcd g.
pieces under the impact OF our siege

enemy has abandoned his antique
fortiacations and retired to his inner
citadel
Now. he even assumes friendly
aspect and suggests a parley. H.
says In effect. 4 admit that the
saloon is not factor in tho moral.

Women and Children First.
The census enumerators tell us
that of the $4,000 women who
work in the fields as farm hands
10000 are sixteen years of age

tiny Of a nation whose future
mothers spend their girlhood

hay and hauling manure, and
what is to become of womanly
culture and refinement that grace
the home, charm society and en-
thuse man to leap to glory in
noble achievements IL our daugh-
ters are raised in the society of

In that strata between the ages
Of sixteen and forty-hve are $780,
900 women working as farm
hands and many Of them with
suekline babss tugging at theiE
breast, as drenched in perspira-
ton, they WELD the scyths and
guide the plow. What Is to be-
Same OF that nation where power

cent children from the school,

The census bureau shows that
1854 of these women are forty
Ave years of age and over. There
is no more pitiful sight in civili-
ration than these sanity mothers
of Israel stopped with age, drudg-
ing in the field from sun until
sun and at night drenching their
dingy pillows with the tears Of
despair as their aching hearts
take it all to God in prayer. Civ

when il should give them q
crown, and their only friend is

properties have been mentioned as likely
to go into receivers hands. II has come

but that IL Is a kind ~ cure all for
every kind Of financial ailment ought TO

experience OF the holders OF Western

road rsceivership is no longer the COM
paratively easy operation IL was twenty
years ago. Times have changed and
railroad rsceivership has become an I'M
mensely different prob,em-a problem
which even under the most favorable cir

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


II may be questioned whether the heavy
selling OF stocks in the past few days
really signifies a leak as regards the char
acter OF the decision TO be rendered in the
freight rate case. However the behavior
OF the market may point thereto, past ex-
perience indicates that the possession by
portion of Wall Street of advance knowl-
edge IL unlikely. The circumstances OF the
nPndlng down OF the decision in the rate
case four years ago are eloquent testi-
mony 10 the contrary. At that time Wall
street was sure that the Interstate Com

II may be questioned whether there has

The character of the selling OF the Bal

decline that has occurred In Baltimore and

the ability OF the Baltimore and Onto TO

cumstances that can be imagined. pre-
ferred stock Of railroad Ike this ranks
almost as n bond. This weeks weakness
in the Baltimore and Ohio stocks has a

the increase in the floating supply caused
by the distribution OF 5000 shares OF

reasonable to suppose that the Union Pa
