Prohibition and Temperance
BY JAMES C. KELLY

The failure of prohibition decrease either ntemperance
the quantity of alcoholic liquor consumed shown by official
government and state reports This fact often used by the
hbera argument against the dry propaganda has caused
the prohbionists ask IF prohibition decreases neither
inemperance the quantity OF liquor consumed why do
those interested in the liquor business oppose prohibitions?
btion arguments it is all the surface Prohibition by its
admission, aims only the licensed and legitimate dealer
manufacturer Of alcoholic beverages 1t worries
of strong drinks by the individual Its purpose is wipe
the legal and licensed industry and quite naturally that in
dustry fights back
Yes il has been demonstrated that prohibition does pro-
tempe rance, and proof needed to show that the
legitimate liquor industry fighting prohibition Recently my
attention called TO the of who ordinarily liberal
assisting prohibition movement in his town. An in
veseaon disclosed the fact that this selling favorne
which if added alcohol would produce real
liquor
That reason why the legitimate manufacturer opposes
prohibition Again the legitimate trade does relish the
prospect Of being forced of business only have the local
demand supplied by mail order houses which operate without
interruption. The heavy shipment of strong and in many
aduerated liquor into prohibition territory matter
OF common knowledge.
The legitimate liquor trade fighting temperance for it
realizes that inemperance is it worst 1t is fighting
hbiton matter ofsef-preservation.
The opposition of legitimate manufacturers and licensed
dealers in quorsto prohibition which do decrease
drinking strange the professional dys would have
us believe.-Adv

RUNNING THE RHEA-
Asistive Of Ostrich Chased With Dos
and Horse.

For the person who desires a
unique form Of sport running the
rhea" in southern Patagonia is rec
commended. The rhea is a member
Of the ostrich family, but somewhat
smaller. 1t runs with the swiftness
Of greyhound or a fast horse and
has knack Of doubling on it's
track, which often serves it in elud-
ing its pursuers. The natives IN
hunting it use horses, dogs and the
bola. The dogs course after the
fleeing bird in full cry, while the
hunters follow after at top speed,
prepared to throw the bola if op-
portunity offers.
The bola, consisting Of txo or
three heavy balls Of lead or stone
attached to a thong six or eight
feet long, serves to hamper the
movements Of the bird, for the
balls twine about the part which
the bola strikes regardless of
whether it be the legs, neck or
wings. This permits the dogs and
hunters to overhaul and dispatch
the bird
At the approach Of danger the
rhea will often crouch fat upon the
ground with neck outstretched un-
der the grass, remaining motionless
until the dogs have passed. This
strategem is often successful when
the wind is blowing against the
scent, but when the contrary is the
case the dogs soon discover the hid
ing bird. In this case, doubtless
bewildered by the sudden failure Of
its artless ruse, it makes no attempt
at escape.
The chase of the rhea, which
sometimes extends over a distance
Of five or six miles, is a thrilling
one. 1t has for the rider all the ex-
citement of a horse race, with the
added satisfaction Of knowing that
the winning of the race will result
in a welcome addition to the larder
The wings OF the rhea have favor
not unlike that of turkey, and il
one is not ayerse to the taste Of
horsehesh the meat Of the thigh is
very satisfactory. The rhea is one
Of the main food supplies on Pat
agonian hunting trip.-New York
Tribune.

BEAUTY DOCTORS NEW BUG

Thermometer.

The photographers schedule was

took that long 30 get the studio ex-
actly at temperature Of 10 degrees.
"And the thermometer had to reg
lister just that before the woman who
made an appointment for three
o'clock would consent to pose," he
said. women who sit for photo
graphs are very particular nowadays
about the temperature Of the room.
Beauty doctors have discovered that
woman's good looks are regulated
largely by the thermometer. There
is a certain degree Of heat or cold
at which every woman looks her best.
BY experimenting the beauty spe-
cialist has found the becoming tem-
perature for each Of his patrons, and

from so to 80 degrees 1t is not an

JASPER INDIANA. FRIDAY, MAY II, 1915,

Merchants who sit around and
complain of the epcroachment OF
the mall order houses and that en-
crochment in Jasper is enough to
keep two extra clerks busy if the
trade they get here was given to
Jasper should pattern after L. g.
Gustavel of Monticello, Ind. He is
In the furniture, hardware and
grocery business in Monticello ard
and what he does in that business
can be duplicated il any other bus
iness. He carried an ad every week
in the iobal papers and they are
live wires aud mean something
Here is one of then.
Our As inch all-oak porch swing

% 80. Mail order price see cata-
logue No. 81 page 5A5. is 81 So
you pay the freight, get a swing
Only "A inches long and on sugar. +"
The people there know they can get
a swing in Montrello and at what
price. And the price is wer than
they can get from mail order
house. There hundreds Of things
which can be bought in Jasper for
less money han from any mail
order house on earth but you don't
know it. You haven't time 10 q
around an inquire what the me'-
chants have and the mail order
house comes 10 your home with his
ad and telles you what he has and
at what price, and gives you glow
ing description of it. The local
merchant can get to you cheaper
than the mail order house can and
from one standpoint you are not
blamed for trading with the mail
order house. But the truth Of the
matter is the local man handles ihe
best goods for less money and he
helps to build up your community
and mine but we can't. help it un-
less he tells us what he has and at
what price we can buy it at. If
some of local merchants would wake
up to the fact like the Monticello
man has business in this old town
would pick mp and the hundreds OF
mail order packages that are forcing
our mail carriers to get large vehicles
to carry would grow thinner.

Sound Philosophy.

OF all methods Of making anoth-

the worst is to tell him, that he viii

AVIATOR cpRp AND WIRE

The arrival Of the aeroplane has
given us.a new industry, or rather q
modification Of an old one, namely,
that Of manufacturing aviator cord
and aviator wire. The Roeblings
have devised special kind of wire
aviator cord TO be used for stays on
aeroplan6s. The cord consists OF a
number OF fine wires Of great
strength stranded together. The
strength Of the different sizes runs
approximately from 1000 to $500
pounds. For steering gear q more
flexible cord is provided, composed
Of six strands Of seven wires each,
with a center Of either cotton or
wire. The aviator wire differs from
aviator cord In that II consists OF 9
single wire instead Of a number OF
wires twisted together. The wire
is made in 12 sizes, with q breaking
strength that varies from 1000
pounds to 175.-Scientiflc American

Most Rapid Photographs Ever Taken.
The most remarkable set of speed
photographs ever taken are a part OF
the war departments exhibit in Ma
chinery Hall at the Panama-Pacific In
ternational Exposition. San Francisco.
They are pictures of a she'll from IL
inch coast defense gun In flight. the
set including the various phases OF
the flight beginning just as the great
projectile pokes its nose out OF the
muzzle Of the gun.
The pictures we're taken with a
lens having an exposure period OF
one five-thousandth OF a second, this
being the fastest shutter ever manu-
factured. The exposure at the proper
time in the flight OF the projectile
was made by breaking an electric cir
cult in wire stretched across the
trajectory at the desired point and
connecting with the shutter.
One picture shows the shell half
way out OF the muzzle before any
smoke and gas has escaped. Another
was taken when the shell was two
feet from the muzzle but hidden by a
heavy ring OF smoke. A third shows
the shell in flight a hundred feet from
the muzzle. The photographs are so
perfect and the exposure so rapid that
scarcely any blur is perceptibie. They
we're taken at Fortress Monroe. Va, un-

mittee applauded all the speakers, but
there was no egort to place the mem
bers on record.
TIC resolution indorsing the Wilson
administration and the Democratic
members Of the house and senate who
have helped to carry forward his pol
icies was adopted by a standing vote
Il follows:
"We congratulate the country on the
splendid administration of Woodrow
Wilson. Under the most trying cir
cumstances in our history he has
steadfastly worked for the cause of
peace and has averted war, without
yielding one we'll recognized prinQple
of international law, justice or human
fty. He has vindicated the rights of
neutrals on the sea- He has upheld the
best traditions in mis- high office and
has discharged his trust with such ef-
ficiency that he has won the confidence
and affection of the American people,
regardless of political affiliations. His
mastery handling of both national and
international questions demands his
denomination and reelection as the
trusted leader of the national Democ-
racy in 1916

service of those distinguished senators
and representatives in congress who
have tirelessly and successfully endea-
vored to assist the president in the
work of his administration.

ST. LOUIS SELECTED
AS CONVENTION CITY
WILSON STRONGLY ENDORSED By
NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Democratic Hosts will Assemble in
Missouri Metropolis July IA.
Two Contests Settled.

Washington, Dec. THE Demo
cratic national convention of 1915 will
be held at St. Louis beginning Wednes-
day, July IA, at noon. The Democratic
national committee tonight chose the
convention city and adopted resolu-
tions calling for the denomination and
reelection of Woodrow Wilson as
''the trusted leader of national Dem
ocracy,'
Chicago and Dallas contested with
St. Louis for the honor of the con-
vention, but st. Louis easily led from
the start and won on the second ballot
When the trend of the voting was seen,
Texas moved that the choice Of st.
Louis be made unanimous. Dallas held
second place on the first ballot but
was displaced by Chicago on the sec
ond roll call.
The result of the first ballot was:
st. Louis, %; Dallas, IA; Chicago, l3.
On the second ballot the vote was St.
Louis, %; Chicago, Is; Dallas, 8. The
majority for St. Louis was gained on
this ballot, when John T. McGraw
arose near the end Of the call and
changed West Virginia's vote from
Chicago to the Missouri city Then the
choice was made unanimous. 1t has
been customary heretofore for national
conventions to begin work on Tuesday,
The fact that Tuesday fell on the 18th
next year may or may not have had
something to do with the determina-
ton of the committee to begin the
proceedings a day later, The official
explanation, however, was to the ef-
feet that the convention would not
require more than three or four days
to complete its work and it would not
be too late in the week to start on
Wednesday,
Political leaders in Washington to-
night regarded it as practically Ger
tain that Chicago would be selected for
the Republican convention when the
national committee of that party meets
here next Tuesday. The date for this
convention probably will be late in
limo Each of the thfea cities con-
testing for the Demoatic convention
