SUFFICIENT SENTIMENT TO ABB
OLISH SALOONS DECLARES
SENATOR CUMMINS

In an address recently delivered be-
fore a Chicago labor union, United
States Senator Cummins, repeated his
declaration for National Constitution
Probtion. 81 was gratified to read in
the Washington papers some time
ago" said the Senator, "of the action
this local carpenters union took in
condeming liquor traffic. Thirty
years ago | would have said probition
was impractical Under the condi-
tons that existed then, it would have
meant putting in the field two w
regulated saloos to the one regulated
saloon that had been there be. ore.
But the world has mychcd along
n these thirty years ulnn now there
is sentiment enough in the Urited
States to abolish the saloon. The
United States ought TO abolish it, ard
it will abolish it.
There is no good in the saloon.
There is nothing but evil If IL; moth
ing but evil ever came out of il.
There may be some to whom liquor
may afford moments of irresponsible
ity and alienation of grief; so ne may
be able to rise above their normal
selves under its influence. But in the
end even these must pay Il double
price for it.

mothers with little babes, could re-
pair and relax after the strenuous
hours of the forenoon. Notwith-
standing the close proximity Of the
we'll to the church, the committee
had several barrels of water
placed near the table where all
could slake their thirst. Nothing
was left undone that would con-
tribute in any manner to the COM

sembled for the dedicatory service.
Such thoughtfulness is characterls-

Died of Injury.

Wednesday of last week, the
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest
Winn who reside in the Rehoboth
section, were playing on some bales
of cotton that were stored in a
house in the yard. In some way one
of the bales fell or turned over on
their little two-year-old son, infict-
ing injuries so serious that death re-
suited in about four hours. The be-
reaved parents have the sympathy
of the friends in all parts of the
county in this hour of great distress.
The little form was laid to rest in
the family square in the Rehoboth
cemetery Thursday afternoon. We
extend sincere sympathy to our
friends in their bereavement.
