PROHIBITION HELPS.

4. j. Greer. president of the Louisi-
ana State Federation of Labor, de-
ciares that the wages of every craft
in Shreveport has steadily increased
since the city went dry. "The reason
we have been able to organize so sue
cessfully here" he says, "is because
the liquor interests have been removed
from union politics." Senator Richard
Jones of Duluth, for IA years II union
labor man, furnishes the following sig
nificant data:
In 1908 the city of Shreveport, La,
voted dry.
Since Shreveport went dry, the men,
bership in labor unions has increased
from 1,S00 to 3.T00.
Since Shreveport went dry, union Ia
Dor men owning homes in that city
have increased 40 per cent.
Under the wet regime the single
brewery in Shreveport employed six
nonunion brewery workers.
Under the dry regime that same
brewery has been turned into an ice
plant and employs 40 union ice max
ers.

HEAT REGISTRATIONS.

At the request of Il well-known med
ical journal, DIR. Karl Meyer and DIR.
Hurry Gauss, both of the Cook coun'
ty hospital. Chicago. made study of
the causes of heat prostration. Their
report is based on an examination of
155 cases taken to the hospital dur
ing three days of July, and shows that
81 case of heat prostration without
an alcoholic breath is rarity"
Doctor Gauss questioned % patients
suffering from heat stroke. All but
two had drunk some alcoholic bever-
age during the day. The % confessed
to libations from one bottle to one
gallon of beer, besides stronger
drinks. Most of the victims admitted
the habitual use of intoxicants.
Doctor Meyers statement. as quoted
by the Chicago Tribune, is that
100 per cent of our cases were
directly or indirectly due TO alcohol
Beer and booze have two effects. The
increase the bodily supply of heu.
and they lower the power of resist
ance. The heat regulating center in
the brain becomes deranged and the
almost inevitable result is prostration.
If 1t weren't for alcohol these people
probably wouldn't have been here. If
alcohol was taken out of the world. l
believe the number of cases of all
kinds at the county hospital would be
reduced by half. After what I've
seen in this hospital l don't under
stand how any doctor can sanction

BEER CAUSES IMMORTALITY.

Beer is drug which deadens will
power and excites the animal instincts
Of the young. In plain English, u mas
ter who allows his pupils to drink
beer, and parent who sanctions 1t,
says to them: II give you beer, well
knowing that it will blunt your intel
lect, deaden your Conscience and di.
lninish your will power. and at the
same time it will excite your animal
instincts."-Dr. Clement Dukes, Ply.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE
CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE

PETITION UNDER THE INlTIA-
TIVE AND REFERENDUM
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1916-07-19
Inexpert on Democratic Platform,

Colonel Bryan, parent of many para
InodAt issues, pronounces his blessing
on the latest Democratic platform
thus:
'"The platform adopted by the Dem
ocratic national convention is one OF
the strongest, clearest and most pro-
gressive utterances ever promulgated
by any party.
at sets forth the party's position
with candor and courage, and it covers
all the issues before the country"
Four years ago Deacon Bryan was
chairman of the resolutions committee
of the Baltimore convention. The plat
form then adopted was largely his
work. He liked 1t. He said:
at is the most progressive platform
ever framed in a Democratic conven-
ton.
THAT means 1t is the most progress
sive platform ever adopted in this
country.
at is stem-winder and the people
will respond to it.
at is a remarkable document.
'The unanimity with which 1t was
adopted was inspiring.
ION the questions of party princi-
pies the Democrats this year are ap-
parently in accord"
Yet that platform included a plank
on Panama canal tolls that the presf-
dent and Mr.. Bryan afterward dis
owned, disobeyed and nullified; and
a plank pledging the president elected
on it to single term. which Presi-
dent Wilson has ignored, violated and
thrown into the waste basket
Colonel Bryan knows a great deal
about platforms. but his judgment
thereon Is not worth much.

SEE HUGHES VICTORY.
Wauers Already Being Made Are
Significant.
Men Who Make II Their Business 70
Be In Close Touch With the POLL
ticaI Situation Are Confident
of Republican Success

A ponderously silly effort was made
the other day by Wilson newspaper
to draw a parallel between the he
publican campaign this year and lhe
Democratic campaign in 1904. ana az
the end of the lahered editorial at
tempt TO put little hope and courage
into Democrats who might read 1t. Inc
question was asked whether the re-
suit of the election would complete
the asserted resemblance between
Hughes and Parker as candidates. Inc
sufficient answer is contained In the
latest reports from the financial as
trict In New York, where odds OF y to
5 ON Hughes are freely offered, with
few takers. Some bets have been
made at to 1.
Wagers are not an argument, GER
tainly, but they are often accurate
signs of what is going to happen. In
national elections the betting ODDS
have never been misplaced in more
than % years and never has there
been an instance, since the Civil war,
at least, of such a preponderance or
wagers on one side as is now being
established without similar one-sided-
ness In the returns on election night.
Not once in more than half CEN
fury have the men who make bets on
presidential elections been wrong in
any such sense as they will be this
year If Hughes does not beat VIII
son easily.
AS sporting proposition the VIII
son campaign is steadily losing ground.
The odds on Hughes have risen. Ev-
erything indicates that they will soon
be higher. 1t looks like to on the
Republican candidate before Novem-
Der.

Always Failed to Make Good.

No Democratic president has ever
been reelected since the Republican
party came into existence. None ever
will be until the Democratic party
shows more capacity for government
than 1t has revealed in the past three
years. The party is hopelessly COM
mitted, as the events of these years
have shown. to false doctrines and
hurtful policies. 1t came In In 1912
by division of the Republican party.
The division is over. There is no rea-
SON for, as there is no prospect of.
a conversion of the minority by which
Mr.. Wilson was elected In 1912 into a
majority In 1915.

Country Must Pay the Price.

The stupid and dishonest plank In
the Democratic platform that dis
avowed Intervention in Mexico may
now he robbed of any semblance Of
excuse that existed for its insertion.
The administration cannot escape the
inevitable. 1t has paved the way for
the threatened crisis by a weak med
ding. 1t undertook to rid Mexico of
Huerta. and thus assumed a respon-
sibility that 1t has since faced with
timidlty and vacillation. The price is
now to pay. Far better had 1t inter-
vened boldly instead of apologetically
to begin with, or else kept hands off
altogether.

An interesting electrical experiment,
illustrating the fact that sound accom-
panies the passage of electricity
through the body, can be shown In the
following manner: Let two persons
each hold an electrode from a small

son. with his free hand, touch the other
