The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1916-03-10

Before the votes We're cast on the
Perry bill Tuesday The Reformer ex
pressed the hope that whatever the re-
suit the losers would accept it philo
sophically. In this connection we com
mend to those who supported statewide
prohibition the spirit displayed bv Rev.
Clifford II. Smith, secretary of the
Anti-Saloon league. He recognizes the
fact that there care not enough re-
mains to hold an autopsy over and
III speaking of the strong fight which
his side made he adds "there is no
whining now. - He accepts the vote as
the verdict of the people and declares
that the first duty of the legislature of
1917 will be to repeal the Perry bill
Mr.. Smith puts the whole situation in
to nutshell when he says the people
have expressed themselves as in favor
OF local option, but not in favor of
the saloon. He also intimates that the
thing to do now is to keep on fighting
the saloon. We were at odds with Mr..
Smith most of the time during the late
campaign, but we are in full accord
with his Interpretation of the result
and his view as to the duty in the
future.

FRIDAY MARCH 10, 1916.
FIRST PRIMARY MAY 16.

The first primary election under the
new law which the people of Vermont
ratified Tuesday viii take place Nav
IS. The vote will not be for delegates
to the national conventions, as MANY
persons seem to believe, but for presi-
Dental candidates for whom nomination
petitions have been filed with the sec
rotary of state. Within three weeks
after this primary the state commit
tee of each political party is required
to call a convention for the election
OF delegates and alternates to the ma,
tional conventions, and each delegate
will be furnished with a certified copy
of the result of the primary vote by
his party.
Nomination petitions are required to
be filed with the secretary of state
rot less than p days previous to the
date of the primary, and in the ease
of presidential candidates the number
of signatures required is 500, the same
aumber as. for gubernatorial candi-
date. The names of the candidates
viii appear on the ballot by parties, a
vote of at least five per cent of the to-
tai cast for governor in the last pre-
eeding election being required by
party to get place on the ballot.
The new law requires that all pri-
maries be conducted by regular cleo
ton officials, and that the polls be
kept open from noon until O'Clock
P. m. Town clerks are to be notified
of the date of the primary at least 40
days beforehand, and are required
within 10 days of receipt of such no
tiee to post it in three public places.

There never was a time when the
newspapers played such potent part
as in the campaign which ended in the
rout of the Perry bill Rallies were
held and various speakers were heard
extolling the issues and some things
that were not issues from the platform,
but often these meetings were slimlv
attended, and on other occasions the
audiences were made up of people who
went to hear just what they wanted to
hear. The newspapers were an open
forum. The Reformer gave freely of
its space to arguments with which it
could not agree, but reflected the senti-
ments of its managers in the editorial
column. The advertising which was
prepared by the leaders of the oppos-
ing factions for general use in the
newspapers reached practically every
voter in the state.

The cabaret is a playground for
married men who have left home in
order to avoid being talked to death.
1t is also frequented by large quaint
ties of married men who could stay
away from home for nine months at
a time without being missed by any
body except the booze solicitor.
The cabaret is neat French de-
vice for preventing the rural patron
from leaving town with money on his
person. There is something about the
atmosphere, as well as the fauna an I
flora, of the average cabaret which
makes prodigal son out of the vii
lage Croesus. Every few days some
thirsty, kilndried retired merchant
from an inland town will stumble in
to cabaret with the intention of
buying q lemon soda and ENJOYING the
scenery, but viii be made so mellow
by the music that he will throw 75
cents or a dollar away with the ut
most unconcern. THIS is one reason
why no married man should be al
lowed to visit our large cities without
being accompanied by a square iawed
wife with high ideals and brawnv
muscles.

Vermont for Local Option.
Boston Transcript

Every county but one in the state
OF Vermont votes against prohl bition,
the vote In the state against it being
5l,96l to 1908, almost two to one.
The most purely agricultural county
IN the state votes against prohibition,
and the most academic; the most pop
ulous, and the least populous The re-
lection of prohibition in Vermont is
not due to the vote of an industrial
or town population going against ru-
raj or village influences 1t represents
the opinion, and in Vermont's case
the experience, Of the whole popula-
ton of state which is known to be
hard headed and has attained a rep
utation as barometer of politi-
cal weather. A good many Vermont

prohibit the sale of liquor voted in
this election against statewide pro-
hlbition, indicating a willingness to
trust other communities with the To-
cal discretion and Judgment which
they themselves exercise. The results
IS therefore a fair Indication that
public sentiment, at least in this part
OF the country, Is running against the
compulslon OF one community even
for the moral benefit of another.
The local veto on the sale of liquor
must always exist, and properly
exists. In practice, the choice must
always lie with the community, the
local government unit, which either
will or will not; and there is small
use in seeking to control by state
edlct, in this land of local initiative.
the opinion of any given community
with regard to such a question. The
admission of this principle in the
Vermont vote is complete, for of
244 cities and towns in that state
only twentythree now license the
sale of liquor. In that state the com
munity which refuses to license the
sale of liquor within its own limits is
shown by this vote to prefer to keep
IN It's own hands the liberty to license
IT. This is more in accordance with
American principles of government
than are the doctrines of statewide
and nationwide prohibition which are
now quite extensively favored In re-
atty the moral warrant of local OBJ
ton is greater that that of any gen
eral system of prohibition, for while
recognizing the power of maiorities
to restrict and even to prohibit the
sale of an article which is capable
of infinite mischief, it does not seek
to enforce the prohibition where there
IS no majority judgment against its
sale

The Example of Maine

The so-called temperance wave.
which has been sweeping various
states South and West recently gets
a sharp setback in Vermont, which
as already reported, on Tuesday voted
local option by 81 ,667 to 1867. No
doubt, this action is due at least in
part to the observation of the ways
Of neighbor. 1t is not far from Yer
mont to Maine, and Maine is an out
and-out prohibition state No local OPP
ton there, no liquor available, abso-
lutte abstention. That is the law, and
the practise is that Maine has more
saloons proportionately than any 9th
er New England state and the United
States license to sell liquor is bought
by the thousand by dealers there
These people fear the national govern
ment and laugh at their own state
The Courant' is as keenly and
sadly aware of the evils of drink as
Is any other paper, but it has not been
able to accept prohibition, for the
very reason that the sch ame doesn t
work. Maine is an illustration In the
question between licensed and regu-
lated selling on one side and lawless
and winked-at selling on the other,
there can be no difference of opinion
among fair minded judges.

KANSAS OH. BOOM LIKELY
New Field Is Believed to Extend

TOPEKA, Kansas, March 10. - Fol
lowing the record-breaking advance in
OIL and the development of a new field
IN south central Kansas, prospectors are
going over a wide range of territory
In the eastern part of this state,
According to Professor Erasmus Ha-
worth, geologist of the University of
Kansas, the oil field now being
developed in south central Kansas ex-
tends clear through the state in a
northeasterly direction and possibly in
TO Iowa as far as Sioux City and under

slbly extending northeast through the
southeast corner of Nebraska, the
northwest corner of Missouri into
southwest Iowa and possibly north to
the Minnesota line. As a result of
Professor Haworth s statement, oil pro-
motors are overrunning that territory
and leasing all the land in sight, and
drilling operations are being awaited
with intense interest. Landowners as
result, are mostly holding out for
good terms.
Another result has been to abolish
the graduate geology classes at the uni
verslty. Every student in the classes
has been employed by the prospectors
at good salaries, and a special course

The oil field of southeastern Kansas
was the first developed in the West
and the discoveries in Texas and Okla
homa followed. The Kansas fields never
developed any gushers, but many of the
wells gave big, steady flows. The big
Oklahoma and Texas fields drew the
prospectors away from Kansas, and for
years production has been falling off.
With the falling off in the Texas and

cal music. 1t also usually contains
number of perfect ladies who smoke
cigarettes and drink everything in
the laboratory, thus proving conclu-
s1vely the accuracy of the Darwinian
theory. 1t is a great shock to an I'M
sophisticated country patron to enter
a cabaret for the first time and see
somebody g wife or sister or daughter
dragging at cigarette and trying to
look like a woman. Man is so consti-
tuted that he reserves the right to
smoke all of the cigarettes manufac-
tured, without being put out of the
church, and insists that woman shall
conhne her dissipation to chewing
gum and setting bread
The cabaret is good illustration
of freedom as exemplifed in our laws
and customs. Sometimes people who
have visited cabaret and returned
home sober are inclined to think we
have too much freedom in this coun-
try. There is well-defined suspicion
that we are OVERRIDING the freedom
business. This will result in closing
down the decent cabarets along with
the vile ones, after which everybody
will be happy.
The man who takes his wife to the
cabaret with him will not have to
frame up an alibi the next morning.
