THE SALOON is DOOMED

The tide of public sentiment is running stronger
than these days in favor of prohibition of the liquor
traffic. It is reasonably certain that the
facture of alcoholic drinks from grain will be stopped,
at least during the This idea is founded such
sound economic principles that argument be
made against it. When every bushel of grain is needed
for food it would be folly to waste it manufacturing
something that is generally recognized as evil
The senate of the United States, at time looked
the last line of defense for the liquor traffic

without saying that the house will be quick to follow
suit

A Blessing in Disguise

Strange news appears in the public
press during these eventful days. The
report that the meat packers of the
country have asked the government to
take steps to fix prices through its
council of national defense, is in this
class of news. They also ask that all
food distributing agencies be licensed.
While our war with Germany is less
than month old, indications ALREADY
point to a number of economic re-
forms as result of it. that were I'M
dreamed of few weeks ago. What
ever the results that may be achieved
across the water by our entry in the
conflict, it is not at all unlikely that
this war will bring about benefits
right at home, that will more than
pay for the enormous expenditure

Adoo to issue this statement a
few Gays ago: .-s....
Among the many absurd and
vicious rumors which are being put
into circulation these days, probably
through pro-German influences, is
one that the government proposes
to confscate the money on deposit
in the banks. The absurdity Of the
statement is obvious on its face, but
| have received letters from several
partsiof the country which indicate
that this rumor is being circulated
for an evil purpose. OF couse, these
rumors are wholly without founda-
tion. In fact, the government has

of depositors in banks. Nashville

from Columbia, South Carolina,
about the good work done by the
Y. M. c. A., in response to a request
for information:
In regard to the Y. M. c. A., I
want to say in a very few words
that it is the grandest thing in the
world for our soldiers, and if they
didn't have it, we would certainly
be in a bad fix. | want to assure
you that there is nothing you could
do better than to help the cause Of
the Y. M. c. A. and am sure that
everyone feels so, for the Secretar-
les are untiring in their efforts to do
everything possible for the comfort
and welfare of the soldiers. You
will note this stationery which is
furnished by the ~" and is just
one item, and they have Sunday
Schools and prayer meetings every
week, and you would be surprised
to know the good they do. So
please do all you possibly can for
them"

Last Span of Big
Bridge is Placed.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 22.-0m
cials Of the Nashville, Chattanooga
& st. LouisRailway announce that
the last span of the big bridge
across the Ohio river at Metropolis
ILL.,, has beehplanted and has just
been cleared Of the falsework. This
means that within a few weeks the
traffic from the Northwest will have
an all-rail route into the Southeast
and visa versa.
This bridge Is over mile In
length and contains one Of the long.
est simnkstuss spans Of any rail-
road structure in the world. being
the 270-foot main channel span.
The structure Is a part Of the Padu-
cab & Illinois Railroad, built and
operated Jointly by the Nashville,
Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway
and the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy Railroad. In addition to
the bridge, there is a twelve-mile
double-track line running to the
bridge from Paducah, KY, where
connection is made with the rails
Of the N, c. g. St. L. Railway. AT
the Metropolis side Of the bridge
connection is made with the rails Of
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy.
The importance of this work to
the shipping interests can be esti-
mated when the statement is made
that 1t establishes a rail route be-
tween the Northwest and the South
Atlantic ports, Incidentally, the
bridge will be used by several trunk
lines. and the river transfer from
Metropolis to the Kentucky side will
be abandoned.
While no date has been set for
the formal opening Of the bridge, an
nouncenent that the last steel span
has been placed means that the
bridge will be ready for traffic with
in a few weeks.
