LOGIC OF THE LIQUoRrTEs.

1t would seem even to the re-
sourcefulness and intelligence of a
crazy man that the time for spend
ing money on an anti-prohibition
propaganda in Arkansas has ended.
The advanced position this stale
has taken among the commonwealth
where liquor has been outlaWed
and the tremendous and constantly
growing sentiment in favor of keep
ing the fingers OF the dirty liquor
element out of public places and
away from political influence, all
combine to prove that the people
of Arkansas appre late prohibition
and sobiiety in Their present forms,
and hope each year to approach
more closely that ideal condition
wEich not only prevents the MAX
ing and shipping OF the fiery fluid
in the states designated as dry
but in all the world as we'll.
But the liquor interests in Gin
cinnati. and in many of the other
large Eastern cities DO not seem 10
appreciate the fact that this senti~
ment for decency and morality is
sincere in the fabric of our citizen
ship They appear to understand
that few preachers and still
few other time-serving politicians
are responsible for present-day con
ditions. Almost daily The Press re-
ceives letter, enclosed i'll an en-
velopo married News immediate.
1t shows that it is mailed from
301 United Bank Building, Cincin-
natl. Enclosed is a proof-sheet Civ
ing the liquor version of all things.
Iudicrous indeed are some of the
ideas and arguments advanced. One
headline in particular makes an
impression today Referring to the
The weekly soliphone. (Paragould, Greene County, Ark.) 1907-1918, 1917-08-30

activities of ministers of the gospel
in lamontation of the trend of this
element to leave truly orthodox
teachings and become practical, the
sheet says:
Preach the holy gospel. Keep
extraneous subjects out of the
church and pulpit Ministers who
neglect doctrine Of Brotherly Love
and cater TO emotional topics are
criticized Leave agitation for week
days"
1t is argued that the leaders Of
church organizations refrain entire
ly from mentioning in the pulpit
those things which more directly
affect home life than any other
topic that could be advanced. These
advocates of barley brew believe
that it is all right for a sin and
booze soaked brother to hide his
face in whiskey and battle his
cheeks in beer foam six days out
of the week, but object to having
his sensibilities injured on Sunday
by a minister who may choose TO
deliver a prohibition sermon. Pro-
hibition. you see, under these cir
cumstances, is "eXtraneous matter. :
1t is liable to injure the mans NOR
ais. Leave the drunkard alone to
the swine with whom he associates
let his correction be done by
those who more readily recognize
the odor Of peach brandy and the
like. Let all good men and ell
teachers refrain from joining in
with the elements OF discomfort, =
ard leave the correction of drunken
to their own kind. This
is the form Of democracy and equal
rights the liquor advocates plead
for \ most wonderful doctrine, is
it not?

TEXT OF MESSAGE.

His Holiness Benedictus XIV, Pope
In Acknowledgements Of the communication of your
holiness to the beigerent peoples dated Aug l. 1917
the President Of the United States requests me to trans
nit the following reply:
every heart that has not been blinded and harden
ed by this terrible must be touched by tins moving
appeal of his holiness the Pope smus feel the dignity
and force of the humane and generous motives which
it, and must feventy wish that we might take
the path Of peace he persuasvey points out But 1t
would be folly take if it does not in fact lead to the
goal he proposes Our response must be based upon the
stern facts and upon nothing else 1t is not mere cesa
ton Of arms he desires it is g stable and enduring peace
This agony must not be gone through with again, and
must be matter OF very sober judgment that will insure
us against it.
His holiness in substance proposes that we return
to the status QUO ante-belum and that then there be
q general condonaton disarmament and concert of ma
tons based upon acceptance Of the principle OF aro
tration that bv similar concert freedom OF the seas
be established; and that territorial claims Of France
and italy the perpexng problems of the Balkan states
and the restitution of Poland be left to such concatoy
adjustments as may be possible Of the peoples whose
political fortunes and affiliations will be involved
INSINCERITY SUSPECTED.
1T is manifest that part of this program can be
successfully carried out unless the restitution Of the status
quo ante furnishes firm and satisfactory basis
for it. The object Of this war is to deliver the free peo
pies Of the world from the menace and the actual power
of vast military establishment controlled by an iTo-
zponsibe government which having secretly planned to
dominate The world proceeded to carry the plan out
without regard either to the sacred Obligations Of treaty
OF the long established practices and long cherished prn
cpes of international action and honor which chose its
own time for the war delivered its blow fiercey and

truth has been permitted to come They do not need to
