An Essay On Habit

A story is told of an English
schoolmaster who offered prize to
the boy who should write the best
composition in five minutes on
How to Overcome Habit"
At the expiration of five minutes
the compositions were read. The
prizes went to a lad Of nine years.
Following is the essay:
"Well, sir, habit is hard to over
come. If you take off the first letter
it does change 'abit.' If you take
off another, you still have a bit
left. If you take off still another,
the whole of it remains. If you
take off another it is not wholly
used up. All of which goes to
show that if you want to get rid of
habit you must throw it off alto
gether."

UNION LABOR AND A DRY
NATION

Senator Richard Jones, of Duluth,
Minn.,.a labor leader of note as well
as successful legislator, will speak
on this topic at the convention of the
Anti-Saloon League of America in
Washington, D. C., on the afternoon
of December II lin the Metropolitan
Methodist Episcopal Church. Sena-
tor Jones will show the falsity of the
claims of the liquor interests that
Prohibition is inimical to the work
ingmaR. He will also prove, beyond
doubt, that the saloon is the very
worst foe of labor, organized or un-
organized. For years labor has been
coming more and more into a better
understanding of the liquor evil, and
there are now few leaders of the
labor movement who do not recog-
nize the fact that Prohibition is best
for employee as well as employer.

CLOSES Up BREWERY
Public Safety Shuts Beer-Making Es-
Establishment Because of Violation
of Law; Some Charters
May Be Vacated

The Public Safety Commission of
Minnesota has closed up brewery at
East Grand Forks for violation of the
law, and has directed the Attorney
General to vacate the charter of other
establishments that respect neither
the law nor their own pledges of good
faith.
Judge J. F. MCGEE of the commits
sion says that the brewers have been
shipping beer by wholesale to blind
pigs and into dry territory. The or
der of the commission directed to the
Attorney General requires him ito in
stitute proceedings to vacate the char
tiers of all domestic brewery corpora
tons and to terminate the rights of
all foreign brewery corporations to
do business in this state, that habit
ually violate or connive at the viola
ton of the laws of this state"
Judge MCGEE goes on to say: For
weeks we have had Representatives of
the commission trailing beer trucks of
brewing companies which have been
loading up blind-pigs. In particular
our representatives have trailed the
big trucks of one of the largest brew
ing companies in Minneapolis-per-
haps it is the largest.
Usually on Saturday afternoons in
particular these big trucks have taken
hundreds of cases of beer to certain
places, among them flats in the Keno
sha apartments, which were raided by
the Hennepin county Sheriff Satur-
day night, and to certain saloon in
South Minneapolis From these
places hundreds of cases of beer have
been redistributed in smaller loads to
blind-pigs in that city.
The brewers have promised and
promised to conform with the law,
but they have never kept an important
promise. Now we propose to put out
of business every brewery supplying
blind-pigs."

BREWERS HAVE PROBLEM;
FEAR ANOTHER ELECTION
Ohio Beer Makers Are Sitting up
Nights Over Trouble Brought to
Them in Recent Struggle;
Trying to Avoid Contest
Next Year

There is much talk among the
knowing ones to the effect that the
brewers of Ohio are sitting up nights
over the problem brought home to
them by the late election. The result
was so uncomfortably close as to
warrant the fear that in another try
out their occupation will be gone.
The several wet and dry campaigns
have made it clear to the dullest-wit-
ted among them that the trend OF
public sentiment is undeniably toward
a dry Ohio; and not only this, but that
the pace is accelerating.
1t is in evidence that the beer mag
mates are bent on some sort of STRAIT
egy that will prevent another battle
on the issue in the same old form
They will save beer if they can, and
by any artifce that may serve to
fool some part of the people.
They will even consent to do away
with the saloon provided they are al
lowed to peddle their liquid bread
from house to house.

to events preceding the riots.
The cost of the negro votes, he
states, ranged from 81 to $40 each,

DECISION REIOlCES DRYS
They Are Pleased Because Court
Holds That Law in Prince
Georges County Is Effective
(Stahf Correspondent


Dry forces of the National Capital
are jubilant as result of the decision
of the Baltimore, Md, city court, sus-
tanning the validity of the Prohibition
law of Prince Georges county, Md,
the Bladensburg cases. Edward Ma
honey, Bladensburg saloonkeeper,
the defendant, had contended that the
new law, passed by the war legisla-
tive session of the Maryland Legisla-
ture, did not become effective until
next June.
Judge Charles w. Heuisler held that
it was an emergency law, and that it
became effective at once.
The Prosecutor of the City Court
was assisted by Wayne B. Wheeler,
General Counsel for the Anti-Saloon
League of America. The court passed
on the case as soon as the attorneys
for the state had presented their case,
accepting their view of the law.
This decision means that another
locality adjacent to Washington is
now dry territory. Slowly, but surely,
all the territory around the National
Capital, itself under Prohibition law,
is becoming dry.

BOTH DRY and MORAL
Since Liquor Traffic Is No Longer in
Washington, Vice, Gambling and
the Like Have Also Gone

One of the by-products of Prohibi
ton is the resultant cleaning up of
the dry area with respect to vice,
gambling, petty thievery and other
crimes.
The District of Columbia has been
dry since November l. Not only is
the Prohibition law vigorously en-
forced, making it practically impossi-
Bile and extremely dangerous for men
to sell liquor, but also the other re-
suits have followed, and Washington
is clear and clean in many respects.
As soon as the District dry law
went into effect the proprietors and
residents of immoral and disorderly
houses packed their grips and trunks
and went elsewhere. They departed
for two reasons, first, that their bust
ness died when the liquor traffic died,
and second, the government would
no longer tolerate their presence in
Washington.
The same thing is true of the gam
blers, thugs, confidence men, stick-up
artists and the like. There was no
use for them to remain in Washing
ton, and they got out,
Washington dry is Washington
moral.

Having received numerous COM
plants arising from the proximity of
the army post at Fort Thomas, Ken,
to the vice zone of Cincinnati across
the river, Raymond B. Fosdick, of
Washington, chairman of the training
camp activities of the Council of Ma
tional Defense, has written Mayor
George Puchta saying plainly that
unless conditions are improved inn
mediately compulsion will be applied
by the United States government.
Cincinnati must be cleaned up"
was his utimatum. "Our reports
show that liquor is sold in houses in
the restricted district and that these
places are frequented by soldiers. The
maintenance of such conditions is an
invitation to make the army less eff
fcient. We are not animated primar-
lily by moral considerations. This is
not reform movement in the usual
sense of the term. 1t is movement
to protect the efficiency of the army.
That is a matter of national import
ance and if Cincinnati will not do
the work itself we will do it. If the
city authorities will not move the de-

SALoONIST ACCUSED
Federal Officers Say He Tried to
Conceal Large Lot of Whisky
to Evade Revenue

Federal officers recently seized a
large quantity of whisky at Lockland,
Ohio, which had been deposited in
storage warehouse in the name of
William G. Bittman, local saloonst.
The charge is that Bittman had at
tempted to conceal the whisky in or
der to evade the additional war reve-
nue. tax.
On his arraignment before United
States Commissioner Adler, the sa-
loon man did not enter plea, say
ing that he desired to open negotia-
tons with the Internal Revenue De-
partment at Washington for COM
promise of the case. To allow time
for this, Judge Adler released him on
$500 bond and set his preliminary
hearing for December S.
