The game at the West Sound ball
grounds last Sunday was between the
home team and the Bellingham Cubs.
The score stood Is to IA in favor of

the second best team in Bellingham.
The following resolution, which was
first passed by Park Grange. was
unanimously adopted by the West
Sound Grange at a recent meeting:
Whereas, We believe the liquor
business is the greatest evil with
which we have to contend, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That West Sound Grange
No. 1913 hereby places itself on record
as being directly opposed to the manu-
facture, sale or use of intoxicating II
quors for the reasons hereinafter
named.
First, that it neither produces any
thing of value or necessity; that its
manufacture takes time and grain that
should be used to produce meat, which
is one of the necessities much needed.
Second, that it's influence is the ma
terial factor used in corrupting legis-
lation, whereby favors are shown to
the few to the detriment of the PEG.
pie at large.
Third, that the legalized sale Of it
has a corrupting moral influence on
our boys and girls, and therefore has
no right to a place alongside OF deal
ers in the necessities of life.
Fourth, that the use of it renders
the user in an unit condition, both
in mind and body, to properly conduct
the business affairs necessary to pro-
duce a living. and the purchase OF 1t
takes money that should be used to
buy necessaries for the family. thus
causing hardships, privations and dis.
cord in the home.
Fifth, that our criminal ofenses are
nearly all traced to the influence OF
liquor. and that it is direct stepping
stone to the white slave traffic and
all other evils that curse our land.
Sixth, that the total prohibition of
the manufacture. sale and use of 1t
leads to prosperity in business, up.
building Of homes. and supplying them
with the necessities and comforts OF
life, and to quiet, peaceful citizen
ship. and that the remedy for the evil
would be total prohibition of the
