methods are more efficacious than

Let us consider the children's
bathing. There doesn't seem to be

Two rules should be made and
vigorously adhered TO. One, that a

other, that he should never stay for

To persuade a child to go into the
waves is usually quite easy. Let
him see other children playing and
rolling in the breakers. He will
think it grand 10 copy them. Give
him a boat 10 sail. a ball that floats,
or any other water toy, but, above
all. encourage him to roll. for i'm
this way he will get the whole OF

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, June G.
Delivering the keynote address of
the Indiana state prohibition con-
yention in Tomlinson hall today, F.
w. Tough, former chairman of the
state committee, declared the prohi-
bition party offers the one way of
abolishing the liquor traffic-by
making the people see it is linked
with federal protection, and that
federal law, instead of a local option
law, must be enacted 10 wipe ii out.
Tough made a long defense of the
prohibition party.
I'VE are told that the prohibition
PARTY hes outlived its usefulness;
that it should disband as an organ
ization and give freedom TO its in
dividual members TO throw their in
fuence and personal support TO nu-
merically stronger organizations now
seeking the overthrow of the liquor
traffic by various non-partisan
methods. Before we give ear to the
political Sanballats of our generation
who would have US come down TO
enc of the villages in the plain to
talk things over, let us consider the
facts which brought the prohibition
party into existence in 1890" he
said
Remember, il is an accepted
truth Of political science that a po-
litical party is the only form of or
ganization that ever held voters to-
gether long enough to settle an un-
settled question of governmental
policy where mandatory law was
required. All nonpardsan. omni-
partisan, and bipartisan schemes for
the overthrow of the liquor traffic
must necessarily fail, for the reason
that they are contrary to our whole
plan of government.
When this nation went into part
nership with the rum traffic IN 1862,
giving legal protection to an in
herently wrong business. it was nat
Ural for those opposed TO that policy
TO find a place in the domain of gov
eminent where their opposition
might find expression fundamentally.
The republican party planted the
American flag over the liquor traffic
over the protest of Abraham Lincoln.
The democratic party proved itself
to be a rear elevation of the same
thing by its attitude toward the traf-
