PRIZES AWARDED

Miss Hazel Reed was awarded first
prize in the prohibition essay contest
and Miss Mary Sisney second. Mrs.
Ulmer and daughter, of Hudson, gave
the $500 in gold for first prize, and
Mrs. Lillian Bess the book for second
prize. Following are the essays as
written by the two winners;
Prohibition
The word prohibition is Il derivation
Of the word prohibitus, meaning to
with hold. Using prohibition as a
noun the word meal the forbidding
of the sale and in some instances of
the manufacture of alcoholic liquors.
Prohibition is not at all a new sub
ject, for it has been under discussion
for many years. The first Prohibition
Party was formed in the year 1869.
II has done much toward the progress
Of prohibition, and is capable of doing
much more.
The first thing to be considered is
the effect Of alcohol upon the body,
1t coagulates the albuminous lining
in the stomach and causes indigestion.
The heart becomes weakened and is
not able TO send the blood with as
much force through the blood vessels
as before. The blood vessels lose
their power to contract and the blood
rushes to the surface of the skin into
the small capillaries, causing an I'M
naturally red nose and cheeks. The
mind becomes weakened, and in many
cases drunkards have been known to
lose their minds completely.
A drunkaTd takes little pride IN his
personal appearance and OF the con-
dition OF his home. The women and
children are compelled TO make their
own living, ard sometime have 10
support large families. This all hap
pens because the man has not will
power enough to leave ii alone. Now,
when n man lacks this will power, It
is time for the people to prohibit the
sale Of liquors. They prohibit a per-
son from killing another, so why don't
they prohibit n person from killing
another by selling him alcoholic IL
quors? Every year thousands Of men
die in the United States, ilom the use
of alcohol, leaving widows and orphans
who have 10 support themselves.
Children love and respect a nom
drinking parent more than one who
drinks. For they are seldom allowed
to sit on their fathers lap, and seldom
receive n goodbye kiss or any inter-
est whatever.
People are beginning 20 realize more
than ever, every day, the Importance
of prohibition. So it will not be so
very long until the manufacture and
sale of alcoholic liquors will he pro
hibited, and we shall have the long
looked for days of National Prohibition.

write n few facts concerning prohibi-
ton. In my opinion think liquor and
tobacco is the worst evil Of our city
or any other city. Because it causes
so much poverty. sickness and death.
OF all alcoholic drinks whisky Is
the strongest. 1t is 80 per cent alco-
hol. Strong wine is next, it is about
20 per cen alcohol. Weak wine. hard
cider and beer are next. Beer con-
tains a very small amount of alcohol
But it has some and every bit counts.
and in a few years shows signs of it,
and causes death.
Liquor is injurious to the brain,
stomach, heart, skin, blood and the
whole nervous system.
Alcohol not only effects people but
animals, such as dogs, cats, etc.
A few years ago 80 well known men
spent much time and thousands of
dollars to learn how much alcohol was
harming our country. After much
study among many people they an
nounced that there we're about m
million men and boys whose health
had been injured by strong drink. Be-
cause strong drinks causes so much
sorrow and sickness, several states
have passed laws %forbidding it's sale.
and saloons have been closed by law
in parts Of many other states.
Tobacco is also injurious 10 the body
Some men have to get up at night and
smoke. They are slaves to tobacco.
They have to do it TO quiet their ner-
vous system.
There are n great many boys in this
city who smoke. / feel sorry for them.
because they do not know how it is
harming them. You know a box OF
cigarettes is MOI poisonous than a rat
tlc-snake, but il Is not as poisonous
as liquor.
In conclusion I will say that no one
should touch stimulents Of any kind.
1t is evil, and besides, the Bible SAYS,
We will drink 10 wine, for Jonadah.

Mr.. Fairbanks is of presidential size /;

very satisfactorily to his friends. At
Chicago he will cut very interesting
figure. To meet the democrats, who will
have their three strongest men-Mar-
shall, Kern and Taggart-in action as
candidates. the Indiana republicans must
bestir themselves. Next to Mr.. Fair
banks, their strongest men are New and

nominated at Chicago for first place,
his nomination for second place would
greatly strengthen his party at home as
respects both its state and national en-
deavors.

Making Washington Attractive.

The latest session of the fine arts
commission has resulted in two de
cisions which advance important works
under way and Immediately in contem-
plation. The working model Of the
statue of Lincoln to be placed in the
memorial in Potomac Park was approved
and features of the landscape treatment
for the memorial approach were decided
upon Thus the essentials of the me-
mortal remaining to be determined were
settled. and it will be only necessary
now for the architects and sculptor to
finish the project in accordance with the
determined plan. The memorial is ris-
ing steadily to reveal its full proper
tons. and is certain to be one of the
most attractive features of the capital
when it is completed, which should be
within a few months.
The plans for the Freer Art Gallery, to
be located in the Smithsonian grounds,
were also approved, and thus this work
is put in the way of immediate under-
taking. An architect of the highest re-
nowu has been selected by Mr.. Freer
for the construction of the building
which is to house his valuable collec-
ton, and it is understood that the de.
sign prepared by him insures the crea-
ton of structure of rare beauty, emf
nently suitable for the contents it will
shelter and for the situation in which,
it will rest. It has been decided to place
the gallery at the southwest corner of
the Smithsonian section of the Mall.

Austria's Advance on Italy.

The sudden development of strong
Austrian offensive against the Italian
front south of Trent is one of the sur
prises of the war, which has been filled
with unexpected happenings. For year
the two armies have been virtually dead
locked in long line winding about
through the mountainous frontier re-
gion, exclusively on Austrian soil. The
early Italian advance carried the troops
of King Victor several miles over the
border, and menaced two or three i'm
portant Austrian positions. Before they
could be taken, however. the Austrian
lines stifened and the invaders were
held in check. Save at Gorilla, at which
the Italians several months ago launched
a furious offensive, there has been com
pafatiteiy little heavy fighting, the en-.

Roosevelt and the Tariff.

, This statement. attributed to an I'M
named bull moose leader. contains the
latest Roosevelt bid for the republican
nomination:
If Theodore Roosevelt is nominated
10y the republican national convention
AT Chicago it will mean. the election of
republican Senate this fall. At least
-four states which are now in doubt
would be brought into the republican
column. thus lnSuring q republican
majority in the upper branch of Con-
grcss. The Importance of this can be
CLEANED from the fact that industrial
preparedness in the form of protec-
tive tariff will be one of the vital is
sues of the campaign. A protective
tariff under democratic rule is out of
the question"
The reference to the tariff is unfor-
tunate. As The Star has repeatedly
shown. Mr.. Roosevelt's tariff record is
against him. He is responsible directly
for his party's tariff woes If he had
taken up the tariff question promptly
,;i'ou entering the White House, as he
should have done, and. in a way, had
T. Omiscd to do, there would have been
no republican split on the subject in
1893. and consequently no democratic
House elected in 1910, which was the
forcrunner of the democratic general
victory in 1912.
But he let the tariff slide, and adj
dressed himself to other things Why,
is a question. He has never given an
explanation. The consequences of his
neglect need no explanation. They are
now in evidence in the White House and
on Capitol Hill
But more than this. All that the bull
moose party is promising on the sub
jet now is tariff commission. 1t does
not urge an immediate revision of the
Underwood law, but only what is called
scientific" inquiry for the laying of
scientific" duties later. When3 Well,
never mind. Sometime. As the Spaniards
say. tomorrow.
Here the bull moosers collide with
the democrats, who are promising the
same thing. The tariff is responsible for
one of the Presidents numerous changes
of mind. At one time he ridiculed the
proposition for a commission, but later
saw a light, and Congress, at his in
stance. is on the eve of creating a COM
mission. He will pick the members, and,
naturally. will pick low tariff men for
the majority end of the tribunal
And then! The question is easily
answered. If Mr.. Wilson wins, and the
democracy elects another Congress in
November, the commissions work may
influence tariff legislation. If the re-
publieans win-the bull n1oosers of
roursc have no chance to win-the com
missions work will go to the waste
basket. where the work of the commits
sion appointed under the Taft admin
istration went when the democrats came
in.
If the only chance the republicans
have of carrying the Senate is under
Mr.. Rooseyelt's leadership on the tariff
question the democrats need not be dis
turbed.

Charles W. Fairbanks.

Gossip has it that both the Hughes
boomers and the Roosevelt boomers are
figuring on Mr.. Fairbanks for running
mate. This testifes to two things: ~
The high estimation in which Mr.. Fair
hanks is held as a political quantity
and 90 the importance of Indiana in
the equation.
The Indiana leader is strong and
capable man, who. has made good
wherever placed. He carried himself
well in the Senate. He was most serv-
iceable and acceptable in the vice presi-
dcncy. Since leaving Office he has been
I'm active and influential figure in state
and national campaigns ~-
The term safe man" is sometimes
divided, In some circles it is associated
with timidity and incertitude a safe
man is thought to lack both initiative
and decision-to be given to drifting.
MIR. Fairbanks is often described in
that term. But safety in his case is
associable with calculation and rehec.
ton. and desire to do the right thing
He has shown both initiative and de
rision many times in his national career
of twenty years. Without those quail
flies he could not have led in the move
mcnt which transferred Indiana from
the democratic to the republican column
and kept it there so long. g.
In this matter Mr.. Fairbanks is in q
measure repeating the history of Mr.
Hendricksof the same state. In his day
