dren must accept the guardianship OF a
person outside her family. This provi-
sion has encountered the opposition OF

ADV.
The Fargo forum and daily republican., 1916-11-16

of the election last week, when the
prohibition amendment to the state
constitution carried by a majority of
approximately $4,000.
Way Prepared.
THE way had been prepared by a
series of county option campaigns, in
which great many Of the states bus
mess centers already had ousted the
saloon. County option had crystallized
sentiment against the saloon.
National prohibition is just as GER
tain as the sunrise tomorrow-the
United States will adopt it as busi-
ness proposition. 1t cannot any longer
continue to license the liquor busin< IS.
las our states go dry. one by one,
we are preparing the way for strong
federal legislation on the subject, and
when we do receive such legislation,
the liquor traffic will be absolutely pro-
hibited in dry territory-and eventually
the entire nation will be dry. ID
"In Michigan, the prohibitory amend
ment becomes operative in May, 1918.
This date is fixed because many of the
saloons have already been licensed to
run till that date.
Half Are in Detroit.
"Of the 5000 saloons that are to be
banned by the amendment, about so
per cent are located in the city of De-
troit, the balance being in other big
centers of the state. All told, over IT,
900 employers. owners and brewerymen
are affected.
'"The automobile industry promoters
were for prohibition as unit. They
opposed the continuance Of liquor
purely as business proposition-and
that is the basis on which the entire
campaign was made. There is no Sun
day school stuff injected into it."
Governor Ferris. twice elected execu-
tive Of his state on the Democratic
ticket, in the face of a normal Repub-
lican majority of 100000, was not a
clined positively to make the third race
for the chair, though strongly urged to
do so.
Believes in Independent Voter.
Governor Ferris is a great believer in
the new viewpoint of politics, and has
high respect for it.
"The tremendous body of independ-
ent voters that has grown up in the
United States, is the element that will
govern. To this element, each of the
parties must cater. They must show
they are right-and the time is rapidly
passing when men will accept classifi-
cation either as Democrats or Republic
cans-they must be shown real results.
The Women's Way.
Women suffrage is just as sure as
prohibition continued the governor.
TT will be a matter of only a few years
when we will find women congressman.
women senators--nay, even women
prosecuting attorneys just as common
as the men of today are. And they will
lbe no different from the men. The
same emotions will govern, and they
can be just as vindictive politically as
can the men-and no doubt they will
! be. Suffrage will get a setback here
and there. but the trend is unmistak-
able"
