ENFORCING PROHIBITION

III was stated in the Gazette lase
week that Richmond policemen have
been instructed to arrest all persons
found drunk upon the streets anu
that such delinquents will be compell-
ed to face the Police Court. Hereto
fore men too far gone to take care
Of themselves were often picked up
by the police. and, when, not disorder
w. were allowed to leave the sta
ton house after they had resumed
their normal condition.
Similar ccurtesies have been ac-
corded in Alexandria, but under the
present order of things all drunken
persons, no matter who the unfortun-
ates may be, will be taken IN
custody, and should they not have col
lateral at hand will be placed in the
dock of the Police Court. and lined
five dollars each.
This. we believe. IS the first time
such a course has been adopted since
the DAYS Of Doctor j. B. Johnson,
who was elected Mayor of Alexarl-
dria in 1876 on what was known as
the '.potato Bug" ticket. The Or
ders were to pick up all persons
found on the streets drunk. The fine
at that time was one dollar. Inc
orders were to arrest only sucn as
were found on the streets, and often
men who had remained too long IN
place of conviviality were afraid 70
trust their legs on their way to their
homes. AS long as a policeman was
in tie vicinity they remained where
Ihae were until the minion OF the
Jaw disappeared, Some amusing
occurred during the brief time
tule was being enforced.
frhe purpose of the trainers, Of
prohibition law as well as those
who are endeavoring to enforce It's
observance in the state is to make
drunkenness odious, and in order to
do so they have determined to make
all people who may use intcxicants
to be responsible for their acts.
The disposition of "drunks" has
been a perplexing question for CEN
turtles Ohio when ruling what had
been left of the old Roman Empire,
was disguised with the conviViality
of certain people in his day. He
adopted rule that all persons taken
up for intoxication should be tossed
up in blankets in some public place
as soon as they became sober. This
punishment, however, did not deter
those who had mania for strong
drink.

BETTING AT EVEN MONEY

New York, Nov. THE food Of
ballots which will sweep either Will
son or Hughes into the Presidency
March a began rising carly today.
Clear autumn weather ushesed in
election day in practically every sec
ton.
While publicly sponsors for the
Republican and Democratic organ
izations declare entire confidence in
the vote, privately they are very
much at sea.
In no previous election has there
been such complete Jack of indica-
ton of which way the straws blow.
The "silent vote" has been more
silent than ever Since the campaign
opened about August l, there have
been half a dozen different "trends"
to public sentiment. Overlapping at
times. Today both sides were claim
ing the benefit of such current.
The most unusual eleventh-hour
development in connection with the
election was in the betting. Wall
Street prides itself on having always
picked a winner. Up to midnight the
odds favored Hughes.
But today they opened with less
advantage to the Republican nominee
almost at even money.
