Traffic Can No Longer Boast Of Being
In Partnership With the
Government.
Washington, D. C.-The liquor in
terests no longer boast Of their al
legged partnership with Uncle Sam.
The fact is, some of the hardest blows
given the trafic are handed it by the
United States Government. The gov
ernment has
Made the army and navy dry.
Bars liquor advertisements from the
mails.
Prohibits the manufacture and sale
of liquor in the National Capital.
Permits no saloon on government
properly.
Puts every soldier training camp in
a dry zone.
Made Porto Rico, Alaska, and parts
of Hawaii dry.
Prohibits shipments of liquor into
dry states from wet.
Says no man has an inherent right
70 sell liquor.
Has submitted National PrOhibi-
ton amendment to the states.
Prohibits liquor being sent any
where by mail or parcel post.
Prohibits the manufacture of whisky
for beverage purposes, and restricts
the manufacture Of beer.
Says the saloon is source of crime
and misery TO society.
Is it any wonder the liquor traffic
no longer boasts of its partnership
with Uncle Sam?

War Savings Ball.
XOB
June 3.

Bringing down to date the ''eX-
traVagant feature" of the Tip
pecance and Tyler. too political
campaign of 1910. there will be
started from Columbus on next
Monday, Jane 10, the Ohio War
Savings Ball. 1t will tour the
state during the next 80 days III
the interest of the War Savings
Stamp campaign.
The War Savings Ball is made
-of galvanized tin, six feet in dia-
meter. soundly reinforced and
braced. 1t will be painted red,
white ani blue ard on its face
will be carried War Savings cap
tiOnS.
After leaving Columbus, the
first stop will be in Delaware
county. Local advance notices
of its appearance in each county
will be given.
The War Savings Ball idea was
borrowed from the political cam
paign Of 1910. In the History
of Ohio-The Rise and Progress
of an American State" this ref
erence is made: The most ex-
havagant feature of the cam
paign was a huge ball, II feet IN
diameter, which was rolled along
| in the professions of the day, II
made its first appearance at the
iYoung Mems Wing Convention
at. Baltimore. 1t was a r'Lnt
wooden frame. covered with lin
en- painted in bright colOrs, anC
on all sides covered with pOlitica
phrases. 1t was transferred from
city to city to be used in Whi&
political conventions. At ont
time we find it at GAINESVILLE. thel
at Nashville, and again at Anan

DRINK AND CRIME

Only 30 abstainers among the
1893 convicts in the Ohio Peni-
tentiary, so the records of that
institution say. OF these 1898,
there are l,25S classed as in
temperate in the use of liquor,
and 795 classed as temperate.
Does not that record prove the
close relationship of drink and
crime? When your wet friend
talks all around the Prohibition
issue in Ohio this fall, call his
attention to the fact that only
80 of these 1893 cOnvicts were
total abstainers.

There are myriads of pulpits
today in which the whole truth
is never preached: some in which
but half the truth is preached,
and some in which tire opposite
of the truth is preached. Any
man or woman who knows life as
it is and has the wisdom to delve
beneath the surface of things as
they seem, and discovers the un-
dercurrent and tricky subtleties
which lie beneath can pick the
false from the truth in these pull
pits.
This fact is known by the poll
ticianS, the plutOcrats and the
gods and gOddesses of modern
society who so graciously patron
ize the Almighty by an occasion
al attendance upon His worship.
These fearlessly proclaim that
they have called the Rev. Y. Y. z.
because he is a 'tactful'' man,
which most commonly means he
is a demagOgue who has the wit
and insincerity to cater to pecu'-
lar whims and fancies. Such a
man Is not a minister of the gOs-
pel-he is the tool of the devil.
| have been ordained "a priest
some six and a half years and
during that time have continl-
ally run up against this sin of
muzzling. which to me is one of
the most potent and influential
hinderances against spreading
the gospel.
Every time a man or woman
suggests to the priest that he
wouldn't mention this. or he
wouldn't speak on that subject
because It might offend, he is
practically asking the minister to
pusSy-fOot. In plain words. he
is bridling the gospel. Now that
is a pretty dangerous action.
There is much false talk about
pacifism - emotional and senti.
mental counsel about not rails
ing a boy to be a soldier. II
is cheap and tardy patriotism
which boasts loudly about the
Red, White and Blue and is ever
to the fore with some new piE or
triuket containing a flag upon it,
which prompts man to say he
will not attend church where a
minister breaches about the war.
II is another effMt to muzzle the
pulpit. 1t is the Belgiumizing OF

natives.
Resembles Great Pencil.
The eclipse is like a great pencil The
point is at the moon and from there u
comes down in concal shape until
il strikes the earth, where II describes
a great black line across whatever Il
touches
While the people are busy enjoying
the eclipse from the point of spectator,
scientists will be busy trying to solve
scientific mysteries which have as yet
baffled all who have ben interested in
scientific research.
Many Important Observations,
The eclipse Is expected to throw some
light on the composition OF the suns
spectrum, which, during the period OF
totality, glows with greensh hue.
What makes II green Is the question
the scientists are going to try to answer.
Points OF 81 milarity and dissimlarity
between the atmospheres OF the sun and
the earth are 10 be given close atten-
ton also.
The polsrized light OF the sun will
also attract interest Scientists at the
University Of California and elsewhere
say that the light around the sun moves
in regular waves like wireless air waves
instead OF being a steady, even sub
stance, as around the earth. The
eclipse may explain this difference.
The coronal spectrum OF the sun, ac-
cordng to Prof. r. p. Lewis, depart
ment of physics, University Of Cslifor-
MIA, is made up OF unknown elements
Professor Lewis Is to s,udythis coronai
spectrum through q large quartz specto-
graph as n member OF the Lick Observ-
atory party at Goldendale, Wash. The
spectograph, in the event of clear
weather, is expected TO reveal many new
and startling facts concerning this
corona and accompanying spectrum.
Studying German Eclipse.
The war has had some effects on the
plans for observing the phenomena,
many OF the scientists who observe such
things now being engaged on prclimin-
Larry study Of the great German eclipse,
which is due somewhere in France" at
an unknown date
Stations have been established how-
ever, by the Lick observatory at Golden

CITIES IN PATH

HoIdenviIIe, Guthrie, Chandler,
Aka and Enid in Strip,

The total eclipse o. the sun which is
scheduled to be visible in the state to-
morrow evening about 80 o'clock, is
{ biggest seen in the United States
both in tota' path length and territory
covered since the eclipse OF 1865,
At this time the interposition OF the
moon between the sun and the earth
will cause a shadow Il. miles wide and
hundreds Of miles long to travel dag
onally over the United tSates at a speed
OF fro~l 1000 TO 5000 miles an hour
Forty-sev.n mihltes will be required
for the shadow, which will be visible
at all points in the United States, to
pass from coast to coast
The shadow i'll enter the United
States from the north and will pass
out In Florida. The Oklahoma cities
said TO he in the center of the path of
the eclipse are Alva, MD, Guthrie
Chandler and Holdenville. At Okla
homa City there will be only a partial
eclipse.
The shadow will reach Washington
state about SIS p m. central time, and
will travel at a speed of a mile a sec
ond aver a l67-mile strip. Scientists
estimate that this strip will not be al
fected again for at least 800 years. At
places in the center of this path dark
ness Ill settle for about one minute
and half that will cause the chickens
to roost, the birds to nest, and the
street cars TO turn on their lights.
While it is not necessarj to look
through smoked glass duri~s a total

and smoked glass the observer will get
a fullgiew of total eclipse,
Those who cannot make the trip to
Guthrie Saturday may be comiortpd by
the fact that on May 29 OF next year a
fine view OF even a better eclipse may
