SENATOR SHERMAN FLAYS
INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT"

When the Senate backtracked and
rescinded the Cummins Amendment,
designed to prevent the withdrawal of
liquor for beverage purposes during
the war, Senator Sherman of Illinois
said:
81 hope some day pitiless pub
licity will be applied to what went
on here. l hope some day the
American people will learn the
power of an invisible government
which can reach out over night
and make the United States Sem
ate reverse its actions as if it were
playhouse on mimic stage in
stead of great legislative body"
And yet number of newspapers
backed this invisible government"
And what was the invisible gov
eminent doing in this instanceI It
was delaying the enactment of tho
Food Control Bill by its insistcnce
that beer and wine be eliminated from
the Prohibition clause.
How ridiculous this position is, Is
apparent when it is remembered that
the Food Control Bill has for its pur-
pose the conservation of foodstuffs,
and the liquor interests are using the
equivalent of 100000 loaves daily
for the manufacture of their poison.
If the conservation of man power
and grain is vital war issue, then
how can any sane person divorce Pro-
hibton from the Food Control Billa

DRY CITIES PROSPER
Seattle, Tacoma and Other Munich
palities in Washington Give Large
Contributions to the Cause
of the Red Cross

Liquor journals and liquor editors
tell us that no city can possibly pros
per without the saloon. If this were
true, it would certainly mean that
Seattle, Wash, would be in a state of
decay. However, this conclusion does
not square with, the following news
item clipped from the Post-Intelli-
gencer of that city:
Seattle's contribution to the
Red Cross has reached $425,000
thus far with returns still pour
ing in Eight cashiers are hard at
work counting the money and
pledges, and $450,000 contribu-
ton seems assured.
The smaller cities of Washington
have also managed to stand the blight
of dry laws, and have saved a little
from the wreck to help out humanity.
The Post-Intelligencer states fur
Their:
Tacoma raised 100000 during
the same week they were raising
100000 for the Tacoma General
Hospital. Everett raised its ap-
portionment of $35,000 to $55,019.
All of Skohomish county went u
per cent over the mark asked, and
instead of $43,500 presented $73.-
800. Aberdeen reached $40, 100,
Hoquiam $4,000, Centralia $13,
1856, Chehalis $4,000, North Yak
ina Sal 900, and Ellensburg $40
000 Camas, a little town whose
allotment was s., 500, hit the $500
mark, as did Kalama, whose ap-
portionment was the same. lone
was asked to raise $500 and re-
sponded with a round $500.
This does not look like Washing
ton was on the financial rocks.

is HE CRAZY7

The owner of large plantation in
Mississippi, where the fine figs grow,
is giving away a few fve-acre fruit
tracts. The only condition is that
figs be planted. The owner wants
enough figs raised to supply CO.
operative canning factory. You can
secure five acres and an interest in
the canning factory by writing the
Eubank Farms Company, 124S Key
stone, Pittsburgh, Pa. They will plant
and care for your trees for Sc per
month. Your profit should be $1,000
per year. Some think this man is
crazy for giving away such valuable
land, but there may be method in his
madness.

NEW YORK GROG SHOPS HARD
HIT

A wholesale liquor dealer of New
York City says that rs per cent of
the saloons will be forced out of BUSH
ness because of decreased drinking.
Throughout the state at least 400
saloons will close by October l un-
der the law enacted last winter, limit
ing the number of saloons in third
class cities to one for each 500 popu-
lation.
Then, too, the same Legislature
gave the cities of the state the right
to vote on the saloon issue, and as a
result, hundreds will be voted out.
Prohibition is no longer the joke to
the New York liquor dealer that it
used to be.

THE CONSERVATION OF PERISHADLE FRUITS
By Cora Frances Stoddard

the grower has been receiving for his
grapes when made into wine.
There is an open field for a greater
utilization OF fruits than has yet been
made. Their sugars are more health
ful than cane and beet sugar, and are
needed as substitutes and supple
ments for commercial sugar.
To turn this fruit sugar into alco-
hol by vinous fermentation is worse
than waste. 1t is keeping open the
channels for alcoholizing the people
at time when the highest efficiency
is demanded.
