volver IN he would carry out the proposed
plan of firing the place.
Osinski, in his testimony, said he had
urged Daschowslty not to fire the buildings
The scheme of firing the buildings he said

temperance

To the Editor of The Republican,:
 The great activity wbich comes frcni the increase of the bootleggers should cause all well disposed people to wake up and work against it's destructive march throughout this region. As f is going at present il certainly means bankruptcy fer this county. IL is sure to increase rather than decrease, by reason of the easy money made in this nefarious business. And generally speaking. the violators like. rather than dislike the punishment that our present law carries with it on this subject it's a cinch they have no fear of the jail or even the pen. so long as the menu is up to the standard. I suggest large increase in the country farm with a strong fence around it to keep the gentleman on the inside, also pay what they earn to their families or to those depend p ent on them for a living. This plan could be applied to a large class of criminals as well as bOotlegsers Deal ing with the subject this way would certainly tend to lift the tinge of dis grace from their families and also to , a small degree. the w-breakers as well. It is very unfortunate that the
 chief disgrace of this curse is cast upon the bootlegger's family-what ne 1 alone should suffer is light. But when the wife must suffer for evils othel | than her own is certainly! hard and 1 humiliating for her to bear An un- ! fortunate woman is the one who has
 a drunkard for husband, because she
 is bound to him both morally anc 1 legally.
 If he comes down to rags, she ant
 her dear little children must assum'
 the same But let them continue il | rags and fancy the cause g just ont then how changed these rags and tn picture would be altogether different 1 Yes, the warmth of the heart doe

much to withstand a winters cold. when there is hope and honor in m indigent home. Is it poverty that de- stroys the heart of a drunkard's wile2
 Certainly not. It is her husband whose very presence is polluting, whose ills and diseases are witnesses of his guilt who has blighted her high anticipations of Ire wno has proved false to a VOW that made her his. Good future results can be ac- complished by giving the children wholesome and timely instruction on temperance in all of it's departments as many of the early impressions of youth are never erased from their memories. The habits of life are most ly formed before they reach their goth year. Hence the richest advice that can now be given to boys and young men is to beware of the fiji $, drink of whiskey. Danger lies therein, safety lies without. The contrast be- tween the words accept or refuse" the first glass of whisky at this stage of life is as great as between the words life and death, heat and cold, far and near, love and hate. The first drink of liquor often leads on to the vortex of ruin and also means treach- erous and polluted associates, who will entice you on to disgrace and then desert you in the darkest hour of your life.
 While refusing the first drink will mean safe associates. reliable friends, long and prosperous life crowned with honor and respect. In conclusion will just say that the heart may feel but the tongue cant tell the real inn portance of this great subject to the American people.
