The VANISHING Saloon

The Kansas City Star thus summarizes. under
tie head of "A Bad Year for Booze" casual
lies" which have attended the campaigns of this
year for the suppression of saloons:
The year is likely TO prove the most
disastrous to liquor selling in history
The most sweeping attack the business ever has
had has from Russia, where stroke
enormous sale has 5een wiped out, with such good
results that the minister of finance has word of
regret the loss of nearly $500 100000 in revenue
AT the same time the necessity of temperance has
been emphaized in all the countries at
In America five great have voted
liquor-Arizona Colorado, Oregon, Virginia and
Washington Altogether, when the legislation
shall have become effective fourteen will be
living under absolute prohibition. The Anti-s5 Saloon
League estimates that these fourteen states with the
other dry" territory, make total OF than "a
per cent. of the area of the United States from
which liquor selling has been driven.
Twenty years ago about 100000 persons were
living in dry" territory. Now than 100000
are included in that territory. That means more
than a million and half persons year for
decades have been brought into regions from which
liquor is excluded
The saloons. of course concentrated in large
cities In thirty-six states there fewer saloons
than are in New York City alone There are 1900
fewer saloons south of Mason and DiXons line than
are in the city of Chicago
Three newly elected legislatures regarded
aggressiVely dry" by the Anti-Saloon League-those
Of Missouri Alabama. and Idaho. It is expected that
the Missouri legislature will help the city people
to keep saloons away from their homes by enacting
precinct option law, by winch INDIVIDUAL pfecinctE
may vote dry"
These results are not the outcome of any moral
wave They are chief causes: People
have resented the attempts of the liquor interests to

One result the recent elections viii be the

outlining the program of the majority in the house

such consideration would have been proposed for

The fear of the large brewing, distillng ana
Wine making interests, of the spread of The dry

the saloon. The Model License League indi
Gated that if these industries survive in the
nation, the saloons go and other means OF

And the trails along the mountains.
Ger the mesa and the river,
Lead TO far and hidden canyons
Where the sleeping Red Men lie,
Wrapped in silence as above them
Myriad aspen leaves aquiver,
Whisper secrets to the west wind
As the pack train ambles by.
Where the swart Apache hunts and
Thinks of warriors now adream-

Where the mountain streams run
swiftly.
Talking loudly Of the day.
To the rock trimmed pool and on

Where an unexpected cleaning
Marks the trout that leaps to vanish
In a burst of silver spray.

A dam is a sort of holding company
constructed for the purpose OF col
Letting water.
Dams are not financial, however.
Ihey are built of stone and other ma
terlals. A dam can collect as much
water as real holding company, but
!it cannot convert 1t into diamond

I Dams are built across rivers to
their great annoyance and interfere
extremely with their progress. Az
ter dam has stopped river, it al
lows it to flow through set of tur-
bines Or water wheels, thus making
at work. If there was only some way
|of throwing a dam across our leis-
ure class we might make them work
too.
Building dams is very dih1cult
and dangerous operation, but not so
dangerous as living below them.
Living below dam is as uncertain a
proposition as holding office under a
