constantly threatened with 1t. The ac-
ton of the South is primarily because
Of the havoc caused among the negroes
by incompetence, and that OF the West
is principally due to thr fact that most

The vital point however, Is that men
themselves instead Of leaving work for
temperance mostly to women as hereto
fore have come to recognize the wide
spread evils of the liquor traffic and
the strong necessity for eliminating 1t
or for restraining it as n preliminary
step. No election ever brought a
greater surprise than that in Virginia
recently, when tho state by majority
Of over 1000 out of $4,000 voted for
complete prohibition, and this was not
the result of "A country vote, for only
