A FINE TRIBUTE

The local contest for the position
Of postmaster has ended in the ap-
pointment Of G. w. Reed, who is
good citizen and will doubtless make
a satisfactory official. There is no
doubt that John Squires was the
choice of a large majority of the
democrats and business men of Pull
man and vicinity, but for reasons of
his own National Committeeman
Pattison saw fit to endorse Mr..
Reed and, in the game of politics the
recommendation of the organization
Outweighs the wishes of the patrons
Of any post office.
Mr., Squires' active and consistent
services to his party deserved better
treatment, but the endorsements
and support which he received from
the people among whom he has
hFed for so many years are a finer

One reason why the people who

Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1914-07-17

the author believes that the state
has been benefited morally and fin
ancially by prohibition.
The prohibitory law does not
prohibit; it only gives men and
women who desire prohibition an
opportunity to secure it by long
years of wise, brave, hard work.
THE battle is won. The wet-and-
dry issue now rarely comes into a
contest in a Kansas town or county
election. Formerly, in the days Of
the eighties, the suspicion that a
man consorted with the prohibition
lists handicapped a candidate He
had to explain that he ran with the
decent element merely for the pur-
pose of deluding the good people
out of their votes. Now even the
faint suspicion that a man has a
friend who drinks, or a brother-in-
law who is married to the third
cousin OF a man who kept a drug
store in the nineties, is a load that
few men in politics can carry sue
cessfully."
Kansas has sworn off and has
made the swear-off stick; and the
swearing off is effective and perma-
nent for exactly the same reason
that it becomes effective in man.
The old tissue of the state degener-
ated by alcohol has disappeared; a
new citizenship dominates the state.
No vestige of property right remains
in the Kansas liquor traffic. The
brewery has been a crumblng ruin
for twenty years. The wholesale
liquor house has vanished.
The store owner who rented to
the saloon long since found another
tenant. The craving for the bust
ness stimulation of the saloon and
the wide-open town is unknown to
this new generation. The financial
disease of the saloon, with its waste
and folly and crime, has been cured
in Kansas, and the body of the state
knows its pangs and tortures no
more. The rising generation of the
nineties and of the first decade of
the new century has risen. | am in
my middle forties. | was born and
grew up in Kansas.
IF my boy, aged fourteen, has
ever seen a drunken man it was out
side of Kansas. He is as familiar
with epilepsy or pellagra or elephan-
tiasis as he is with the actual effects
of the saloon on the social system;
yet, because the i'll effects of alcohol
on the human body are taught in the
schools, he can rattle off a rigma-
role about what whisky would do
for a man that would turn to stone
through terror the old Horrible Elk
ample of the seventies, This boy IS
afraid of whisky. SO are all the
children of Kansas.
IF the state government should
pass into a despotism that would in
troduce the open saloon by imperial
decree. the Kansas people of the
generation now on earth would not
patronize it. Not only have they
been educated out of liking the taste
of whisky and the habit of drink
ing it but they have been taught to
fear It. This does not mean that
