Should Have New Flag Day

The flag on the court house Is in
dition, and for several days this week
was Topping di3consolately at half
mast And the court house flag is
not the only one that looks as though
its owner had lost his patriotism.
Next Monday will be a good day for
everyone 1ying a flag in Mountain
Home to take it down, and either
have it Iaundered and mended, or
else provide a new one

NATIONAL CAPITAL NOW WITHOUT SALOONS.

third congress, 1S7 to 1S9, with for.
ty-one not voting, but as a two
thirds vote was necessary to carry
the amendment through, the meas
ure failed. The same congress, how
liquor law for the District of Col
umbia and in the senate technicali-
ties only prevented the enactment of
a prohibition law for the district.
When the present congress as
sembled, 1t was soon evident that
the majority sentiment in both houses
was fayorably disposed toward pro-
hibition for the district. The action
of one state after another abolishing
the saloons had left no doubt as to
where the nation stood on the pro-
hibition question. Consequently the
supporters of the measure encount-
cred comparatively little difficulty
in securing its adoption, although the
"wets' still kept up a fight, setting
forth as their principal argument
that Washington should be the last
city in the country that should have
the rigors Of prohibition forced upon
it. if for no other reason than that
its citizens are helpless against all
lie egialatfon by Congress affecting their
interests or convenience.
The barring of the saloons from
the District of Columbia will COM
plete a dry belt from Maryland south
to Florida on the east and as far
as New Orleans ON the westward.

At midnight "wednesday the bars

ably never to be re-opened. At that
hour the so-called Sheppard law,
providing that prohibition of the
LIQUOR traffic shall prevail in the
District of Columbia, came into oper-
alton. Wholesale and retail liquor
stores were closed, local breweries
shut down, and thirsty residents left
dependent upon private importation
of liquors from beyond the confines
of the district Even that last hope
of the obtaining alcoholically inclined

courts decide whether the Reed bone

One before has the national capital

many years ago. when a spasm of
sentiment in favor of prohibition
swept over the nation, leaving Wash

The present abolition of the liquor

several years.

Wheeler is located about seven miles
from the city of Macon, Ga. There
will be about 10000 men in train
ing here in a short time. so YOU
see that l will have my hands full.
1t is not very probable that I will
know each soldier by his first name.
but I no doubt will get as we'll &C
quainted as one could in a city about
the size of South Bend
over 1000 buildings have been
erected here and the camp will

are 80 camps Of this kind through
out the United States at present
with over a million men 10 be
trained in them. Most OF these
camps are IN the south. where mild
