Questions for Labor to Answer.

In an appeal to the labor unions OF
the country to refuse to longer be the
catspaw Of the liquor industry when
labor circles are in reality largely dry,
Charles Stelze says: "Shall the trades
unions be made the scapegoat for an
evil which it is sought to continue,
against the best judgment Of increas.
ing numbers OF workingmen? Shall
future generations hold it against OF
ganized labor that, in the twentieth
century, it allied itself with those who
stood for sin and the debauchery of
the saloon? Shall the saloon dom
mate the labor movement when every
other decent organization and institu-
ton is breaking loose from It's power?
These are questions which labor must
answer, and answer 50 emphatically
that no one can mistake the real at
titude of the trades unions"

How the Saloons Pays Ito License
Money!.

Some one may claim that the sa-
loon helps TO pay his taxes. This is
a great error. Can you squeeze water
out of sponge? If you think you can,
go down to the drug store and buy
one. l will squeeze it. How much
water do l get?
The only way you can get water out
of sponge is to bring the water In a
basin, drop In the sponge and let 1t
absorb it. Then you can squeeze some
of the water back.
If you want to get money out of
saloon, the only way Is to put the
saloon down in the community and for
every $4,000 it takes from the peck
cts of the people you can squeeze one
thousand of it back in the form Of city
license. The saloon must pick the
pockets of the poor-to pour thin
golden stream of revenue.-Exchange.

Every military administrator recog-
