ARRANGE FOR MEETING.

COnfers and Decides On June S
for Get Together"

A number of the leaders of the wing
of the democratic party known as the
" "Progressives. organized several
years ago, held a meeting at Arundel
hall yesterday afternoon, and discuss
ed the situation as regards the i'm
pending State campaign. The meeting
was really one of the central commit
tee of the Progressives. and was in.
formal in its nature.
The committee did, however, in
dorse the candidacy of United States
Senator BLAIR Lee for the Governor
ship nomination, and fixed June s as
the date for a general meeting of
voters throughout the county when
definite plans for the coming campaign
will be mappd out.
1t will be remembered that the Pro-
gressives, four years ago, waged a
warm campaign against the organiza-
tion forces when Mr.. Lee made the race
for the nomination for Governor
against former State Senator Arthur
p. German.

New Exploits Of Elaine No. 3 To-day.

-~-~--~~
In WI Fang andIhis willy confeder-
ate, Lung Sin, Craig Kennedy seems to
have found an opposition worthy of his
tempered metal. With Elaine kidnap-
ped, and no clue to work on but a
meaningless Cryptic Ring, the great
scientific detective feels the necessity
for his most concentrated thought.
There is one feature about this
Elaine series you cannot overlook.
They tread path never before essayed
in finn land. They have the charm of
novelty, and hold in the hearts of the
people the places formerly occupied by
Lee 90 and Sherlock Holmes. The
name Of Craig Kennedy is better
known through the United States than
is the Vice Presidents.
Then there will be a Selig drama
"Iole, the Christian" and the fourth
is the Vitagraph drama, Strength. .
Brute force is of little value compared
to brains, but in this case, strength
was the only thing that would make a
proper impression on type Of mar
such as Franton. A young prospectoT
by the name of Franton is injured near
the cabin of big Jim Vaughn and his

LIQUOR TRAFFIC A PERIL.

Prohibition is inevitable in this
country, says the Boston Advertiser
With practically the whole world con-
ceding that alcohol is a bad handicap
to any nation, and that the abolition
Of its use means a healthy-not an
artificial-increase in the efficiency Of
the average producer, public senti-
ment in this country is going to wipe
out the saloon, just IS it has wiped
out such nuisances as the polluted
public Dr. private water supply. or the
manufacture Of poisoned foods or en-
balmed meatstuffs. They were abol'
ished because they were a danger to
national safety and efficiency. And
the saloon is certain to be abolished
in precisely the same way and fol
precisely the same reason.

one which is on everybody's tongue
Barney Grogan. a well-known Chica-

III they voted the wet-dry question
in Chicago some Sunday morning the
whole city would go dry. It's the men
and women who are wet personally
who will finally decide the issue. They
are Topping about and will try 1t as
an experiment. Maybe they will &c
back-maybe not. They don't know
exactly where they are a~t-especially
the morning after pay day. But the
