And even such tragedies as the ono
in Magoflin do not shake them from
their apathy. Today there are doubt
less numbers of men in this county,
who are in no way connected with the
mOOnshiners. who know of the exist
ance Of moonshine stills and yet do
not inform the officers. Some refrain
rom fear of injury TO person or prop
,rty and others from the idea that it
is none of their business. Neither is
a good citizen in the true sense of the
word. A coward can not be good
citizen, and the man who Is so indif-
ferent i'll regard TO the welfare of his
community as to keep silent in regard
TO law violations is not good citizen.
We will have to awake to the duty of
citizenship. Citizens as jurors must
bring in verdicts commensurate with
the gravity of the crime. Citizens
will have to realize their duty and in
form the officers of what they know
Of law violations. Officers will have
to he prompt to arrest and bring to
Justice the malfactOrs, and the courts
will have to inflict certain and sure
and speedy punishment if the liquor
traffic is broken up.

sDEAS BORN IN THE WEST
San Francisco Newspaper Thinks
Little of Imagination Displayed
by the East.

Like so many western ideas, the
iitney is gradually making its way
eastward. 1t has reached Philadel-
phia, it is an issue in Washington,
It is dipping its tires in the surf at
Atlantic City, The East never had
imagination enough to invent such
a simple matter as the jitney.
The jitney is merely an illustra-
ton. There are no new ideas of any
kind in the East, except ideas among
limited circle concerning ways OF
getting peoples money away from
them. The West is Americas great
idea factory. The West can invent
and popularize everything necessary
from the jitney to the judicial recall
The East is classic, the West roman
tic; the East is tory, the West lib
eral; the East stands pat, the Wes-
keeps hOPpias rightal6ng.
New York city is not the nations
literary, artistic and musical CEN
Ter; it merely happens to have its
hands on money enough to buy lit
'erature, art and music, which is
quite a different thing. The New
York idea ought to be dethroned.
Why should New York pass on our
plays and our books and our public
! policies when it hasn't sense enough
even to invent jitney? New York
ought 10 get down on its knees and
thank heaven that there is a West ia
furnish the salt to give it such savor
as it has.-San Francisco Bulletin.

1t can be done if all viii do their
duty. 1t is acknowledging that popr-
lar government is failure to say tina;
crime can not be curbed. TLr spread
of crime means the OverthrO," of gov
ernment and the spread of anarchy.
The crime wave that is sweeping over
the country must he checked il thee
government stands and civilization rn-
dures. The peril to govern,leIt, due
TO the demOralizing effects of the great
war; is more imminent than appears
to the casual observer. The law'ess
creed of the Bolshevic Is spreading
and it finds its most receptive soil H.
communities that are Indifferent t.
law enforcement. 1t does not gath"'
goOS citizcns in its cult. IN commI-
.ti,s whore ,he law is enforced there
is li,tlc crime There is also Il great
er respect for the law. The commu
nifty that is law-abiding is so because
its citizens are In favor of law enforce
ment. A community that is lawiessI
Is so because its citizens do not care
Licking Valley courier., 1921-01-27

Yet we hear men who claim to be
good citizens say that it is none of
their business whether the law is en-
forced or not They say that it is the
duty of the officers to apprehend the
malfactors, yet they refuse to give the
officers any information that would
help them to locate the mOOnshiners
Potential murder turks in every Illicit
still in the country. Any mans son is
likely to become enmcshed in the net
Of crime that is fostered by liquor.
Any mothers heart is likely to bleed
for son lured from the teachings of
his youth and degraded by the great
curse. Aud yet men will complacent-
ly fold their arms and say: ut is not
my affair if mOOnshine stills are in
the community" Nor do they seem to
care If the boOtlcgger plies his trade
under their very noses.
