Sweden and Prohibition.


Sweden votes wet. The first nation
wide referendum on the question Of
prohibition results in a majority Of
$1,000 in the negative. This doubtless
greatly heartens. the vets. here as
there, but examination Of the figures
of the poll must modify any transports
of joy that may be felt at the first an
nouncement. The vote was in reality
very close. For prohibition some 945,-
900 votes were cast and against pro-
hibition $4,000 votes were recorded.
Thus the. ma jority of $1,000 was out of
a total of 1,927,oO0, and was actually
less than 2 per cent. For first go in
hitherto wet country the Swedish
drys have made remarkably strong
showing. The reports state that the
weight Of the dry vote was cast in the
country, and the bulk Of the wet vote
came from the cities. This is the gen.
eral rule. 1t has been true in this
country. The towns want drink. while

Stirring Up the Voters.

This is the final week OF the run.off
senatorial primary in Mississippi. For
mer Senator Vardaman and former
Representative Stephens are contest
ing for the democratic senatorial nom-
ination, which is equivalent to elec-
ton
A dispatch from Jackson says:
Hundreds of speakers have volun-
teered and the entire week will be
filled with political meetings in every
county in the state.
Mississippi is one-party state. The
democratic party has everything it's
own. way. Campaigns, therefore. are
conducted largely on personalities. 1t
is often to the eloquent man, or the
popular man, or the man who best un.
derstands how to humor and entertain
voters. that the prize sought goes.
Still, it is a good thing to stir up
such an electorate; to get everybody
| interested: to get as many voters as
possible to the polls; to get such an ex-
preston from the people as by its
| emphasis will control those to whom it
lis specifically addressed.
There is great deal at issue in this
country. More is in the scale than has
been there in sixty years. While much
of it is political. much also is above
and beyond party politics. The mer-
chant marine question is in no sense
political, Neither are the questions
now uppermost in both labor and CAPT
tai circles political in their nature. Let
us have as large a vote as possible
| everywhere, both at the primaries and
| in November

the rural districts want protection
from 1t. In the long run the rural
sections and small communities win.
In Sweden, it would seem from an
analysis Of the vote. the women were
somewhat more favorable to prohibi-
ton than the men, though In the main
they voted with the men. This also is
the rule, though here in the United
Ststes the woman vote has been gen.
orally one OF the strongest factors for
prohibition. 1t is safe bet that when
Sweden tries out the question again
the now narrow margin will be much
reduced or else wiped out altogether.
For the trend Of opinion throughout
the world is toward the restriction and
prohibition Of the liquor traffic.

Confessed Criminal Sabotage.

Chicago dispatches tell more in de-
tail of the confessions of the men ar
rested in connection with the Gary,
Ind, wreck, in which the engineer and
fireman were killed. 1t appears that
these men, with others, planned 10
wreck this train in conjunction with
the wrecking of trains on other lines
by other groups of strikers. In the
terms of the reported confessions, they
were to swap wrecks AT meetings
of the unions it had been agreed that
a series of such accidents would
promote public sympathy for the four
brotherhoods, the members OF which
wanted to join the strike but lacked a
valid excuse to violate their working
contracts.
This phase OF the matter should give
the brotherhood leaders and members
occasion for very serious thought. Ii

shockingly bad reasoning. Does the
wanton wrecking of train and the

for friendly feelings toward the per

Sabotage is the only word to apply
TO this deed. sabotage of a peculiarly
vicious and wicked kind. How can
public sympathy be enlisted for
cause that resorts to such methods?
The country is not radical. the people
as rule are unalterably opposed to
sovietism. The work of the agents of

EDITORIAL DIGEST

, 1ndorsing this view. the Rochester
Times Union feels that "the work of
establishing a firm native govern
ment in Ireland will go on. Yet the
loss of this able. energetic and popu-
culties of the task"
This death 'is an international dis
aster." the Boston Transcript points
out. The loss of both Collins and
Girftith is heavy blow to the hopes
OF the country: If the people are
resolved--if under the sting of this
shame they rally to new and more
determined union-leaders will be
found and the people may yet turn
the catastrophe to lasting advantage.
But II they now show weakness and
indecision. if their conflicts are in
tensif1ed rather than stilled, the road
to the death of Ireland's hopes of
freedom will be found to lie in this
condition"
Recalling that Bernard Shaw as
serted that when the explosion comes
the strain will be on the cemeteries =
the Harrisburg Patriot is convinced
that Collins death undoubtedly will
hasten the explosion" Still, even
though renewed anarchy comes as a
result of this death, the Portland
Express argues that peace and
freedom in Ireland constitute too
great and too sacred a cause to be
wrecked by the red hands of mur-
dsrers."
The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin
points out that ireland has no lack
of leaders. Cosgrave, Mulcahy, Duffy
and others. whom the emergency will
reveal equal to the task. Serious
times confront the country, but Ire
land must and will find her soul in
the crisis, and the example of

WHILE bowling around the Speed
w way the other evening l hap
pened to notice a car that was GER
tainly the last word in advertising.
1t was one that figuratively hit you
right between the eyes. This par
ticular genius who was advertising
a certain brand Of soft drink had
painted on the panel Of his door an
attractive picture which explained, in
part. what the drink was. So far so
good. 1t would have been a good
stunt in the daytime or when he
was under the glare of street lamp.
but for general night work it's effect
would have been lost had he not at
tached to his running board an cleo
trio lamp and a reflector; you simply
could not but help reading the ad-
vertisement.
T Asst Sunday while stroliing down
l. by the city post Office saw car
that bore two license tags and they
certainly did prove that the owner of
the car is not at all superstitious. The
District tag was No. 13 and the Mary
land one ended with the figures 13.

1T HAS long been matter of won
1 der why some of the streets that
have excellent stone surfaces, but are
uneven and totally untitled for motor
travel, have not been given a top coat
Of asphalt, SO that they would con-
form, as near as possible, with the
majority of the roadways. In some
sections of the city you will find a
block or two that has nice even
streets and the very next one will be
paved with stones. many of which
have dropped out of place. 1t means
that every time a motor car or truck
goes over this kind of pavement
springs are weakened. a part of the
car is loosened or something else
happens. to say nothing of the physi-
cal discomfort that is caused. If the
fines that are collected in the traffic
court cannot be applied to the better
ment of our roadways because of
some technical point in the law, let
us have the gentlemen on the Hill"
fix it so that the fault may be cor
rected.

Said Hezekiah Bings,
"In spite of all the doubt and fear
That life before us filings.
The same old stars shine in the sky,
The same old breeZes blow,
The same old ripples wander by
Beneath the moonbeam's glow.
Though men make comedy too mad
And pathos too long drawn,
The same old laughter echoes glad;
The same old tears flow on.
The flowers fade, the fruits draw near
Its gift each season brings.
Things don't change much from year

What a Censorship Should Not Be.

A view Of censorship enunciated by
Augustus Thomas deserves com
mendation for its truth and sanity.
Talking to an Evening Post inter-
viewer, the veteran dramatist said:
Censorship is sterilizins because.
after all, the limit of the personal
censor is the temperament Of the
man himself, and reasonable liberty
is a little wider than any single per-
sonality."
Is not this the conclusion Of the
whole matter? To make the nature
and character of a national literature
depend on the fallible judgment of
a man or a committee is to subject
one of the greatest of the arts to the
very tyranny from which it has been
the purpose of republican develop
ment to free all other forms of hu-
man activity. 1t manifests the
anomaly of attempting to establish a
moral dictatorship in a democracy.
AS Mr. Thomas says. the genius or
all our institutions is against the
censor. The character of book or
play should have the same legal de-
lenses as the character of a citizen.
1t should not be intrusted to the
mercies of a personal censor or a
moral council of ten. but should be
safeguarded by all the judicial re-
sources which are instituted for the
protection Of human rights. New
