1t is Obvious that relief in any com.
munity from conditions of lawlessnesS
can come only through SECURING
honest, effective activity on the part
of the regularly constituted officials.
These can not be secured unless there
is healthy. normal public sentiment
back of them in favor of law enforce
ment, and any effort which does moi
involve arousing the public as well Ms
making direct demands upon the Off.
cials will fall short. Any other pol.
icy weakens self-government instead
of strengthening it, That is why. IN
stead of trying to deal" with official,
who might promise everything and Il,
little Or nothing, we appeal directl,
to the people and let them deal witt
the officials. Our position is that 1
an Individual can send men into Yol,

The only remedy is for the people to
be so msistnt in their demands for the
suppression of the traffic that greater
efforts will be made to get the viola
TORS. 1t will not answer to say that
the officers can not find out who the
liquor sellers and makers are. 1t is
common rumor who they are aud that
liquor is being made and sold. and il Is
a common occurrence to see men under
the influence of it. If the proper
efforts were made there would be such
Il roundup Of the moonshincrs and
bOotleggers that few would dare to at.
tempt it. In the communities whera
there is determined effort made to
break M the traffic 1t is done. The
officers must have the moral support of
the people if they succeed, but they
will not get that until they convince
the people that they are in earnest il

pie in regard to the making and sale
of liquor 1t is easy for us to learn
of the men who buy whiskey and usn
it. Scarcely week passes but that
we do not learn of some men and boys,
in various parts of the county, being
tanked up on moOnshine. It has
been little strange that the officers
and grand jury can not find out these
things, when apparently there is little
trouble taken to hide them. Men
will be seen openly staggering under
the influence Of liquor, aud it is worse
than silly to believe that they get it
without buying it, and little is done to
make them tell where they get it.
