THE NEXT STEP
Logically, It Is Submission of Prohi
bition Amendment to the Consti-
tuition of the United States.

The logical next step in the progress
OF the temperance movement is the
submission by Congress to the severaI
states of an amendment to the federal
constitution, which, when ratified b,
three-fourths of the states, will pro
hibit the manufacture and sale of in
toxicating liquors throughout the ma
ton. The constitution provides that
any amendment to that instrument
submitted by Congress shall become
effective when three-fourths of the
states either by their legislatures or
by a special vote of the people shall
ratify the action of Congress. To Sc
cure federal Prohibition by this route,
therefore, would require ratification
by SO states. The nine states which
have already adopted Prohibition
would promptly join in the ratification
of such a constitutional amendment.
The action of 27 other states would be
necessary before the amendment could
go into effect. These states would
need to be lined up one at a time
the temperance forces of the nation
concentrating on one state after an
other until the necessary number is
secured.

he cannot fail to interest, entertain
and convince.
AS governor of Tennessee Mr.. Pat
terson was always allied with the wet
interests, and opposed every measure
calculated to restrict the liquor traffic.
The vets counted him a firm friend,
the drys a strong opponent.
A little over a year ago he became
converted and united with the Presby-
terrain church. In his conversion the
Pauline parallel was lost, for it was nc

the skies which caused him to halt II
his road to Damascus and to change
his purposes and beliefs. Instead, his
was a struggle, the outcome of which
was that he became a Christian and
later an avowed Prohibitionist.
But, as was the experience of Saul OF
Tarsus, so likewise Patterson was a,
first received with some doubt and
misgivings among the dry brethren. 1t
was o until he satisfied them of the
ge%nuineness of his turnover that they
accepted him.
Since his conversion there has been
no stronger foe of the liquor traffic
than he. No voice has been lifted more
%e1oquent1y than his voice. He is
counted by the Anti-Saloon League as
one of the strongest speakers in the
movement for national Prohibition.
Those whose delight it is to hear a
word painter will be well repaid for
hearing T. Alex. Cairns, the New Jer-
sey poet, lecturer and philosopher. OF
Cairns it may be said that he is n OF
the most pleasing speakers in Amer
lea. For ~eloquence he is not sur
passed and he has a wonderful range
of words.
Richmond P. Hobson, hero of the
Merrimac, now "the gentleman from
Alabama" will deliver several ad-
dresses during the campaign. One
feature of his speeches is the array OF
facts concerning the destructiveness OF
alcohol. which he presents to his hear
ers. His lecture, "The Great Destroy
er," is calculated to make even the
friend of the liquor business stop and
consider.

Senator Brady should have a record crowd at his
meeting Saturday evening. He is easily one of the fore
most men in the state, a leader in all lines that have in
any way claimed his attention. AS a business man he is
preemlnent, as a citizen he stands on a plane with the
very best, and in doing things for the interest of his state
IN a commercial or industrial way he has no superior. He
is the pioneer irrigation builder, having constructed the
hrst large canal system in the state that was not built on
the cooperative plan, and waited for years to realize on his
investment. He was among the pioneers in the develop
ment or our electrical resources, having taken hold of
and carried to success the American Falls power plant
after several others had tried for years and failed, and is
today putting life into a canal system at Mountain Home
AFTER 1t had lain dormant for years, and is giving the peo-
pie there the first sembance of service they have ever
had. His predecessor collected money, but constructed
few canals; his predecessor sold water that he could not
and did not intend to ID deliver, and has a record of swind-
ling operations that extend over several states; his prede-
cessor sold government land to settlers, and in every wav
open to him swindled right and left. The people asked
Senator Brady two years ago to take hold of the project
and give them relief, and he did so. The terms and
conditions were all arranged with the settlers before he
agreed to take hold Of the project, and one of the condi-
tons was that water should be sold for 500 per acre. He
voluntarily, a few months later, reduced the cost of water
to $S5 per acre. The plant is an expensive one, and he has
been pouring money into it for two years with no returns
up to the present, and no prospect of any for several years
He fell heir to the troubles brought on by his predecessor
IN ownership, but is meeting them like a man and doing
ful Justice to the people living there. Come out and hear
him Saturday evening.

PUT NO CREDENCE IN THE REPORT.

Axel Ramstedt, who was placed in charge of the state
office to check it up, places no credence in the
report that the furniture of the old state house has disap-
peared for the reason that most of it is in use and has
been constantly. The old furniture of the governors office.
secretary of states office. auditors office, attorney gen.
erals office, treasurers office, have never been idle a dav.
The other offices were cramped into small rooms and had
little furniture. These are Mr.. Ramstedt's reasons for
not getting excited, but he is going to check up anyway.
The treasurer is custodian of the statehouse and everv-
thing in it, and it is possible that a few things might have
been sold at private sale and not accounted for, given
away or loaned.

After the offer of the Press to publish any true report
Affecting the integrity, efficiency or inattentiveness of any
republican candidate has gone unaccepted for two weeks
do you think it fair for the supporters of the opposition to
whisper around that something is wrong? Reports have
been received that they are doing so. The Press challenges
them TO get out into the light of day with their
charges, A sneak thief works in the dark. < sneak in mol
itics works the same way. Any charge that will not stand
publication. and publication before the last opportunity
TO meet any charge made has passed, is not worthy of
any credence, and no honest man will take such a course.
Come out like men. Any charge made will either be dis
proven by the records or if this can not be done will be
freely admitted. There is no reason why any meritorious
charge should sneak around ashamed of itself, nor is there
any reason why it should not appear early enough to be
fairly answered.
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1914-10-29

1t is now two weeks since the Press offered to pub
fish without charge any accusation against any candidate
on the Republican ticket who could be proven to be incom-
petent, inattentive to duty or in any way unworthy. that
could be substantiated after a fair and open investiga-
ton, but none have been offered. The reason is clear.
Character assassins work in the dark. Their weapons are
poisoned arrows of secrecy, inuendos and insinuations.
Kumors that will not stand the test of cold print are not
worthy of consideration. Pay no attention to such, no
matter at whom aimed. No party is free from persons
who will stoop to such methods, and no one is safe from
their poisoned shafts.

Nobody has challenged the figures printed by the
Press showing that the officials of Power county have
