AFTER fifteen months OF study and in
vestigation, the Wisconsin Anti-Vice
Commission has submitted an exhaustive
report OF IFS work Ii finds that the one
great cause OF vice is the use OF intoXi-
eating liquors, other contributing causes
being public dance halls, road houses,
automobile Joy rides and lack Of parental
care.
The truth in regard to most of the evils
under the sun always points in the same
direction-the liquor saloon. WhiSkey
is at the bottom of most OF the trouble in
this world. The dance hall wouldn't
be so bad if were not for liquor; neither
would the automobiles rides road houses
would not be bad if they didn't sell liquor.
What is the cause OF parental neglect and
degrading home influences, outside OF
liquor.
When we shall have finally gotten rid
OF the awful curse OF the liquor saloo n
the country will find itself rid Of most OF
its evils and unhappineSS.

OUR Washington correspondent sends
us the following interesting bit OF politi-
cal news: Some West Virginia political
gossip has drifted back to Washington
with the return OF the statesmen and
others, which may throw light on some
of the moves among the party which is
dominant in the State. One thing that is
reported by persons just back from the
State is that in his ambition which he has
long entertained TO become Senator
from West virginia, H. L. Ogden, OF the
Wheeling lntelligencer, looks upon the
governorship as stepping stone, and
will undertake to succeed DR.. H. d. Hat
field as Governor OF West Virginia. Be-
cause of his exceptionally strong showing
in his two races for Congressman
large, both in 1912 and 1914. it has been
widely believed that Howard Sutherland
would be the logical candidate OF the Re-
publicans. But, to get him out OF the
way, MIR. Ogden is said to be encourag-
ing Sutherland to make the race for the
senatorship nomination against Governor
Hatfield, who is expecting the nomina-
ton for Senator as Senator Chilton'S sue
cesSor. Some time ago il is understood
the Governor decided TO get rid OF How
ard Ogden, member OF the Public Ser
vice Commission, because he was too
intractable to suit him, but at the same
time the Governor wants the support of
Mr.. Ogden's newspapers and Howard
Ogden still holds his place. Whether, in
the final roundup. Mr.. Ogden will sup
port Sutherland or Hatfield for the SEN
atorship is a matter that is interesting
many persons. Mr.. Sutherland is not
novice in politics and may not consent to
be switched away from the governorship
nomination to further the ambitions of
Mr.. Ogden. And there is the situation.
