you know, this L. s. dry statute mere

and some other purposes, into any
states the laws Of which prohibit the
manufacture and sale of Intoxicating

statute relates only to the importa-
ton Of liquor IN INTERSTATE COM

abrter: but when a person buys a
bottle or key OF LIQUOR for his own
use and not for trade or barter. then
he may take it in his stomach, his
pocket. his grip, or as he pleases, and
with it he may cross and recross the

direct attention TO the fact that by the

is no required to make any affidavits

say the statute makes no regulation
for shipment and does not authorize
the department Of justice to make any

statement as to how liquor may be

SATURDAY EVENING LETTER
BY Justice J. E. Robinson

that day it went through the farce OF
adopting or rejecting seventy-nlne
bills without reading the same. as re
quired by the constitution. 1t went
through the farce of calling the rolls
and taking a vote on seventeen bills
at time. In at least one instance,
when bill was passed by. the senate,
message went TO the house that the
bill had been indefinitely postponed
and the bill was thrown into the
dump.
House Bill 80, known as the Bone
Dry Statute. was never passed by the
senate. The vote in the senate gave
it a radical amendment, which was
completely ignored, and in lieu OF the
real amendment there was substituted
a fake amendment. Then. with the
fake and false amendment, the bill
passed the house: was enrolled and
Promulgated as law and for time
it was enforced with the utmost rig
or. The result has been to sacrifice
the lives OF thousands Of people "
making it practically impossible for
them in time of need to get the best
of all flu demedies. If you ask why
the flu prevailed in states where the
remedy is plentiful, the answer IS
that most people do not know how to
use it and to care for themselves. AS
the flu still continues and may, con-
tinue for another season it behooves
the legislature to give the matter care
full consideration Assurdely some
thing should be done to prevent the
needless deaths OF thousands Of peo-
pie.

THE, RED CROSS PROFITED

When resourceful member Of the Red Cross
at Anderson, S. c., suggested that bag be hung
in the public square to receive discarded samples
of cotton from dealers and small gifts of the same
product from farmers, the idea proved unexpect-
edly profitable. One day some one, in lieu of a
cotton gift, pinned S. note to the bag. 1t was
decided to allow the bill to remain as a sugges-
ton to Others In less than 10 days $500 in cash,
besides many pounds of cotton, had been collect
ed by the Bag The idea was soon copied in neigh
boring towns, with good results accruing in each
instance-Popular Mechanics.

January l1th, 1919 On Thursday of
this week we heard mandamus case
which was brought to invite educator
Macdonald to give up his office to
his fair lady successor, Hiss Minnie

majority, but still Mac seemed to

the people had settled the question,
regardless OF qualifications. The coun-
sci for Mcdonald insisted that the
lady had speedy and adequate rem

that mandamus was not the proper

"SLOSHING AROUND WITH KINGS

Huckleberry Finn's conception of an earthly
Paradise was "soshing around with kings and
dukes"
It is hard to conceive of President Woodrow
Wilson as youthful Tom Sawyer or ''Huck,' but
if he ever had such visions, he is realizing them
now. -#
Anything less than an Earl never gets started
at all in the Woodrow Wilson parades in England
these days. The president gets whole suite OF
seven rooms in Buckingham palace, and probably
a clean towel and pitcher Of ice water every
morning.
The king himself knocks at his door and wishes
him many happy returns on his birthday. Per-
haps dear old George came tripping up the stairs
in his pajamas and raped before the president
was out of bed, to convey his congratulations and
perhaps tell him his tub" was ready.
And while he and the king are discussing
leagues of nations, and naval power, and the pres
ident's score on the eighth hole at Chevy Chase,
the queen and Mrs. Wilson are settling the serv-
ant question from an international standpoint 1t
all seems so chubby and homelke to chat over mat
tiers with Mr.. and Mrs. Guelph this way.
And Mr. and Mrs. Guelph sure brought out their
best set of china for the royal banquet The ban
quet hall contained plate worth s15,O00,OO0. Then

sible and conspicuous position as driving the will

THE DINNERPAIL'S FRIEND

E A man who was tremendously interested IN your
cost of living and in your having enough food to
eat died the other day in Rome, David Lubln,
American Jew, world citizen most noted inter-
national agricultural prophet and leader OF all
time.
Probably you have never heard of David Lubln
your acquaintance with him and his life work
may have been limited to reading his periodical
reports of food crops in this country or that. You
NAV have thought him farmer or the farmers
friend and guide.
But he was more the city consumers friend
and guide.
David Lubin was a man, with great purpose.
He struggled for the goal of we'll fed bodies the
world over prices reasonable, fair alike to con-
sumer and producer. Fighting for this purpose
compelled him into battle with the horde Of toll
takers who wantonly increase food prices and de-
crease food supplies for their own selfish profits.
He was one Of the first Americans to advocate
tn parcel post as medium to promote direct deal
ing between producer and consumer
Years ago Lubin made a,fortune in Sacrament
to California; mercantile establishment. He quit
working for himself and began working for hun
CRY mouths, in India as we'll as the United States.
It was his idea that the first requisite for the
on proper basis was an accurate knowledge of
world production and consumption. He suggested
the formation Of an international agricultural
crop reporting institution which met with luke
warm support in Washington. Abroad the idea
was better received. The king of Italy gave the
institution building and an annual income to
cover expenses and Lubn went on to Rome as
Americas representative.
There the former California merchant placed
his fingers on the pulse of the worlds food He
made it his business to know how much food was
being grown and how much was needed, and
where Everything he learned was given to the
public, and no longer was it easy for food hoard
ing spectators to spread false stories of foreign
crop excuses to lower prices to American farm
ers and fake reports of crop failures to boost prices
to consumers.
For the first time in history the world knew
how much food it produced and in which corner
food supplies were stored. It was David Lubin
Who made this possible. He believed that, in time

IF YOU'RE NOT A BOLSHEVIK YOU NEITHER
VOTE NOR EAT; YOU DIE

The Bolsheviki have told the whole world that
the chief principle of their doctrine is:
"He who does not work shall not vote, neither
shall he eat"
Therefore he dies; dies of starvation or by ex-
ecution, whichever end serves the Bolsheviki bet
ter.
But-but the Bolshevk themselves assert the
right of defining who is worker And nobody
is a worker within their definition who is not
Bolshevik.
Thus, by controlling the qualification of voters
a minority is enabled to rule, democracy is BAN
ished in practice, and Red Guard force is used
to uphold the minority in the power they have
seized.
