The court, taking into consideration
the great disorder general through the
country in costlinessA of apparel, and
following near fashions, sent for the
elders of the churches, and conferred
with them about it, and laid it upon
them, as belonging to them, to redress

their people, which they promised to do.
But little was done about it; for
many of the elders wives etc., were in
some measure partners in this general

Of the state is the inevitable outcome
of non-enforcement of liquor laws. In
Milwaukee 1000 saloons flagrantly OPP
en- on election day and Sundays, and
most Of them violating the law on 9th
er days, cried to the voters, Govern
ment is a joke You cannot pour the
virus of law-defance into the veins of
the body polite without producing the
fever of Bolshevism.
"The laxity of our officials has two
parents. Sired by liquors aggressive
ness, it was damned by decency's silent
acquiesence. Democracy always rep
resents will; never mere wish. Democ-
racy is backbone; bolshevism means
every within of lawlessness. We have
Bergeristic radicalism because it had
the Prussian will to power, while de-
cency had the twill to rest
ttI.awlessness not only begets law
lessness; it attracts other lawlessnes
Barflies, like barnflies, head upstream
toward the strongest smell. Our liquor
lawlessness attracted the advocates of
other lawlessness. Prohibition will ac-
centuate our position. Wisconsin is
surrounded by states whose legislatures
have promised drastic enforcement
measures; whose governors pledge pro-
hibition shall be enforced. Tn the face
of this a Milwaukee socialist assembly
man has introduced, and many Wiscon-
sin legislators are threatening to pass,
an enforcement measure which would
exempt beer from the effects of prohi-
bition as Intoxicating. Having
successfully defied our state law, they
now make bold to defy the federal con-
stitution. They would make us the
only oasis in the dry northwest. We
shall be the only garbage can in the
alley. How the flies will swarm hith-
er!
fWhen Oregon voted dry the T. w.
WIS had strong headquarters in Port
land Instead of disbanding, the Ore
gon drys redoubled their efforts. In
two years time not only was prohibi-
tion an accepted and accomplished fact,
but 1adicalism had cvaporated. Wash
ington, across the river went dry at
the same time as Oregon Washington
drys let down; they took it easy Not
only was prohibition defied in Wash
ing; the radicals of the Northwest mi
grated to Seattle, and presently Mayor
Ole Hanson was the only thing between
America and a bolsheviki revolution.
Better DO safe than sorry. God Al
mighty hates gutter. Men of Wiscon-
sin, we face thehardest task III Ameri-
ca, but let's finish the job. Let's see
the thing through. What say you?
Shall we stick Tor democracy or dis
band and surrender the state to beer
and bolshe, isms'
At the conclusion Of the eloquent ad-
dress by Governor Willis, the assembly
unanimously adopted resolution ask
ing that state legislation be provided
to bring about the proper enforcement
of the law. The same resolution urged
that a special department. of the At
torney Generals office be utilized to
this end and that & fund of one hund-
red thousand dollars be raised to keep
the work of law endorsements active.

Not only does he trim the city drunlners at poker. when they took him for an easy mark. but ke has heard of the oil boom that is sweeping the country. That's why he holds so tightly on to the land which the smart real estate agent sold him as worth less and fights terrific battle to pre- vent it from being taken away from the girl he loves.
