The Anti-Saloon League

The efforts of the eAnti-SalOOn league
to bring about permanent prohibi-
tion and its strict enforcement have
been highly communicable and have
received the warm backing of all
friends of the dry cause-as most of
us are today: but the efforts OF the
league to convert itself into u power
full political machine have failed mis-
erably and deserve to fail more mis-
erably still in the future.
From time to time throughout the
campaign the league sent out it's cir
culars commencing certain candi-
dates and cOndemning others. Nine
times out OF ten the candidates com
mended were Republicans and those
condemned were Democrats. Where
a Democrat could not be condemned
the Rev. Mr.. Finch remained silent,
permitting his endorsement of the
Republican and his silence as to the
Democrat to stand, by contrast, as
unspoken condemnation.
In one instance the injustice OF the
leagues plan was plainly apparent.
According to one letter sent out by
the league officials, that organization
commenced to make recommends
tions for county judges and sheriifs,
but, starting, for some strange reason,
with Weld county, it endorsed Mr..
Nixon, Republican candidate for
judge, and then decided not to follow
its plan OF making recommendation
for those offices. The result was that
Nixon went out, apparently, as the
sole candidate endorsed for that Office
by the league.
Mr.. Finch's weak explanation of
the sudden change in policy proves
only that he was dishonest in his
purpose. He wanted to endorse a Re-
publican and he could not justly con-

Some of the Causes---and Effects
A Chicago dispatch says:

"a SutShSo dispobSh S"ye'
Altogether 1t was record. breaking
election, perhaps a turning point In
American history. Political tradi-
tions were upset, precedents nullified
and signs and portents discredited.
For the first time since Andrew Jack
son Democratic president has been
Reelected in succession. For the first
time Maine went Republican in Sep
tember and the country Democratic
in November. jackson won the prest-
dency by combination of the South
and the new West. Wilson has been
reelected by II combination OF the
solid South, Ohio and the newer far
West.
The Democratic party has been
soiidified and strengthened, abandon
ing traditional policies such rs oppo-
sition to protective tariff. The Re-
publican party, unable to unite COM
pletely it's liberal and conservative
factions and to take positive stand
on the issues raised by the European
war, Mexico, the Adamson law and
preparedness. has been shaken and
stands in need of organizing along
new and definite nationalistic lines.
Party lines were bent and shattered
by the complicated issues of the cam
paign, but all in favor OF the Demo-
Gratis. The President received tre-
mendous support from Progressives,
yet he also carried that citadel Of the
old guard, Utah, one OF the two states
won by Taft in 1912.
In 1912 Wilson was elected with L.
300, 900 fewer votes than the Republi-
can and Progressive vote combined.
In 1915 he was elected with 100000
more votes than the Republicans and
re-atliliated Progressives. Bryan in
1896 polled II larger popular vote than
any Democratic candidate for the
presidency In the history o: the coun-
try until Wilson in 1916 exceeded that
high water work by more than 2,OO0,-
600 votes.
There is nothing more Interesting
than the analysis of the causes OF the
Democratic victory and Republican
defeat, for in the light of such exam
ination one discerns the operation OF
the forces which are shaping the des-
tiny of the nation. Even in New
England of Stalwart Republican tra-
dition, the political analist discovers
those influences which in the mass
proved the undoing of the old party
in this election.

demn Judge Baker. whose record in
the cause of prohibition has been re-
markable. so he resorted to the low
est, cheapest trick he corld devise.
Tactics of that sort are bringing
the league into disrepute sll over the
state and will result in the complete
loss of the political influence which
ter how laudable the purpose for
which it is organized can succeed IL
it resorts to cheap trickery to accom-
plish its purpose. - Weld County

then decided to take the full treat
ment. He wrote:

It, and it is matter of business with
them to know. too. They have taken
about two inches off the tops Of the
new fall shoes. This new skirt is not
coming way down, however. 1t will
stop about at the ankles. The ten
dency, too, is toward straight and mar
rover lines. But it will be a long way
from the hoblle. Women having been
hobbled once are not likely to be hob
bled again. That's where the delights
OF freedom com in. BY the way Cal
lot of Paris was among the first of
the sponsors for this longer skirt.
The pert, airing and bouffant skirt
will still be worn; but it has lost its
novelty, and that was the best part
of it. Lots of women, however,
thought its youthfulness the best part.
They claimed that you couldn't tell the
