Louisville has filed an application
for the power rights and a SINH

Louisville Hydro Electric Co, which
was organized for the purpose and
which is a subsidiary of the Louis
Vile Gas and Electric Company,
whose present Elant is on the river
near the head OF the falls.
The matter was considered some
time ago by the Jeffersonville
Chamber OF Commerce. which de-
cided TO cooperate with the city Of
Louisville in it's effort to gain mu-

OF power. The electric company
takes the view that on account of

stage OF the river It is inevitable
that for two to four months in the

that in consequence the power

bone dry prohibition became ef-
fective.
Captain John Stevenson. dean of
the Detroit delegation i'm the state

president OF the new league.
Bone dry prohibition, az tried
out in the United States. has been
a CHASTITY failure" said Captain
Stevenson. discussing the aims of
the Home Rights league Under
the bone dry law evils have de-
3elOped which surpass those Of the
old saloon days. Rum running,

sent problems which irk the whole

nuHify the efforts to destroy the
-honored theory that a mans
home is his castle and will put a
stop to the searching of private
