in drug stores pointed out the yena clutch OF
this evil upon the community.
Mayor ellis wrath is chiefly directed against
the pseudo drug stores which have sprung up, in
the last month or two, for the single purpose of
cheating the prohibition law by selling cheap, poison
Gus whisky to creatures of the habit at extortionate
prices
The prohibition law provides proper and
legal method by which persons who want liquor
can get ii. The Star stands squarely with Mayor
Gill on this proposition.
There is no punishment too drastic for pro-
fessonal law-breaker, who deliberately apportions
part of his ilgotten gold against the expense of his
expected arrest and trial. Such creature is the
real anarchist, a thousand fold more dangerous
than the bombthrower. He wrecks the chances
for community peace and happiness. The liquor
question should be settled defnitely-once and

Whether the mayor had the right under the

in doubt. Some declare the law says liquor thus

Wirz of the Confederate Army, was in
charge of the prison at Andersonville,
where so many Federal prisoners dice OF
poor nourishment and bad sanitation
during the war. The South was block
AIDED and even medicine was not allowed
to enter the country. The south fed its
own soldiers so badly in consequence
that they were little better off than their
prisoners. AS many Southern prisoners
died in Northern prisons as Federals
died in Southern prisons. Nevertheless,
Capt. Wirz was hanged by the Federal
authorities after the war was over. He
was offered his life in hopes that he
would furnish evidence to show that
President Davis and other members OF
the Confederate Government had given
orders that Federal prisoners were to be
starved. He preferred hanging. 1t was
the policy of the North during the War
to decline the exchange of prisoners,
which the South continually offered, be-
cause there was abundance of material
at the north for the making of soldiers
and the South was finding it more diff
