The Value of Prohibition Ito Nations Treasury

The following Reuter- dispatch comes from Pet

M Kharitonof, comptroller of the Russian treasury
speaking before the dua budget committee today
that owing the great increase in the national savings
Prohibition the extraordinary outlay occasioned by the
war had caused suffering yet in Russia.
AS proof of this M Kharitonof said the national saw
ngs in December 1913 which 100000 roubes
$35oooo had increased 2oooooo roubes ($1455oooo)
in December 1914 He added that the savings 1913
amounted to 100000 roubles ($7oooooo) compared
with 84,ooo,ooo roubles ($42,oooooo) for 1914.
The great financial drain upon the nation occa-
stoned by the is completely nul6ed by the bene
fits accruing from absolute Prohibition Note again

Start saving coupons today" says this brew
erys ad to the readers Of Washington newspapers.
The generous offer is given OF one coupon with each
case Of beer
Any one who has given thought to the economic
side of the liquor problem must smile discovering
the premium offered by the brewery.
1t is forty-eight piece dinner set
Settlement workers. charity boards and those
who have had to do with the destitute in our cities
have discovered that in good percentage of the
cases of families requiring help the primary is
liquor The little kiddes in these homes are not so
much concerned about dinner set as they are about
something to put the plates and in the dishes
which they may already have. Many Of them would
be willing to eat off the bare table if they could just
get something wholesome to eat.
If the Washington brewing company will pardon
the intrusion we would suggest that suitable
premium would be shoes for the babies and pro-
visions to stock the pantry.

Has the National Model License League Ever
Tried to Fulfil Its Promises to the Voter?

Cities and counties and some states undoubtedly
have gone wet the specous plea OF the agents Of
the Model License League that regulation that reg
ulates is better than Prohibition that does prohb
It" These paid agitators Of the League have pre-
scented to the voters in the wet and dry campaigns
plans and specifications of ideal license law, with
the promise that if they will permit the saloon to
operate the League will do all in its power to that
model license laws are enacted and enforced Many
cities have been fooled into permitting the saloon to
return, after having been dry because the plausible
of the Model License League have led voters
to believe that the problem Of law enforcement with
reference to the sale OF liquor will be solved through
the adoption of the Leagues license plan.
The question arises, has the League ever
tried to make good its promises for reform in those
cities and counties and where it has persuaded
the voters to retain the saloon?
Major Dan Morgan Smith, ex-counsel for the
League, evidently thinks not At any rate he cites
three states where the League had chance to try
out its plan and where apparent effort was made
to do So In letter recently made public, Major
Smith says that the in at least these three
have demonstrated that they have lost faith in
the promises of the liquor interests to pass proper
regulating laws. These states are Virginia. where as
general counsel of the League Major Smith addressed
joint meeting of the senate and house and with the
full authority Of his employers promised the aid of
the liquor interests, in the passage of law which
would regulate. Such a law even intro
duced The promise was broken and Virginia is
dry. He had practically the same experience in West
Virginia which is dry and in Oregon which is
also dry.
Major Smith answers his contention that
"Reguation that regulates is preferable prohib-
ton that does not prohibit" in this sentence "The
liquor interests have consistently thwared regulation
that regulates and in Kansas Prohibition prohibits "

Life is made up. not of great
sacrifices and duties, but of little
things. in which smiles and kindness
and small obligations, given habitu-

heart and secure comfort. Common
place virtues are more important
than the vast sacrifices and splendid
heroisms that righfully demand our
admiration when they occur, be-
cause their need is more constant.
