New Years day, seven states Of the
Union went dry: Arkansas, Washington
Idaho, South Caroaina, Iowa, Colorado
Oregon. In each case, this was the re.
suit Of = stete-wide vote Of the people
Rrohibitionfis already in forcs in eleven
States: Maine, Kaasas Tennessee, Ms

Virginia. Georgia. North Dakota Okla

declared for statewide prohibition; bu,

1915. There are thus nineteen states
which will be dry in tina ysar 1915
In addition, votes sre to be talsea ou

result of about a hundred years OF edu
cation. mhis, educational movement be
gan about century ago, but it has beer
during the last fifty years that the move
ment has growpsso rapidly that it nov
bids fair to envelope the whsle vceld ID
q short time.
For the last twenty-five years, the
young have been educated in schools ani
elsewhere until every boy and girl in
most states has learned the effect Of al
cohol on mind and body, and on society
These boys, and in some states, the girls
are now voters. Public sentiment is lar
gely matter Of education. The public
has learned that it is no trouble to d.
without liquor. but that there is lots d
trouble contested with it's use. The YER
dict is the result Of the knowledge o
the fact. #
In ell social reforms, the world move,
slowly-but moves and moves irresistabl.
and it never moves backward. 5

PR0sPERlTn

We have repeatedly been told through
press dispatches and articles puhlished
for political reasons that the railroads
are making moro money thsn they have
been for many years and that businessis
above normal 10 nearly all lines Of com
merce. Here ia North Dakota the trunk
lines have taken of scores Of trains and
the branch feeders are only operated
with sufficient trains to comply with the
laws Of the state. Does these things
agree? We have the actual evidence
here in Pembina whore . number Of
train crews were laid Of in the early part
Of; the season when traffic should be ON
the increase.
From the "R1lroan Age Gazette" .
publication as authentic on railroad
matters as the Scientific American is
on matters of .lnsentions We copy the
following which gees to show that bust
ness is not above aormal, but On the con.
trary II is . repetition Of what we had
during the Democratic administration a
