rests in spite of the increase of popu-
lation. The officials express the be-
lief that this decrease is due to Pro-
hibition. In Boston Prohibition
brought about a decrease in the num-
Der of cases of assault from 2127 to
1878 in one year. In st. Louis petit
larceny declined in one year from
E6167 to $3.50.
From north to south, from east to
west, come reports from the large
cities showing the great decrease in
crimes OF ali sorts since Prohibition
became law and the Eighteenth
Amendment became part of the
Constitution of the United States,
and it is the duty of every citizen to
aid in enforcing this law.
Lincoln gave us the great ideal
when he said, ''Let reverence for law
be breathed by every American moth
er to the lisping babe that prattles
on her lap; let it be taught in
schools, in seminaries and in col
leges; let it be written in primers,
spelling books and almanac; let
it be preached from the pulpit, pro-
claimed in legislative halls and en-
forced in courts of justice, and, in
short, let it become the political re-
igion of the nation"

PROHIBITION NEWS ITEMS

The enemies of Prohibition are
very active, and are continually
striving to discredit the good influ-
ence and benefits of Prohibition, and
are unceasing in their efforts for pub
licity in anything that will tend to
make the public think Prohibition
is failure. If they would be as in
dustrious in searching for facts in
favor of the Eighteenth Amendment
they would be ashamed to present
the few items that they have gath
cred against it.
The UNION SIGNAL is the nation
al voice of the w. G. T. U. organiza-
ton. They have been gathering
statistics from every State in the
union and expressions from, the most
notable men in every avocation, pro-
fession and station of life, from all the
great city dailies. All are unanimous
in emphatically stating that the ben
efits of Prohibition are not to be
measured To get at the real facts
concerning the state of affairs in the
State of New York, the figures for
the Albany County penetentiary may
be taken as typical of wide section
of the country, as it receives prison
ers from seven other counties, all in
cluded in the report. The commit
ments have decreased gradually from
1920 in 1910 and 1870 in 1915, to
173 in 1920. OF these 6 were for
drunkenness, less than one-twenti-
eth. We have it on the authority of
the commissioner of police of the
city of New York that in 1918 there
were 11,611 burglaries and in 1920
only $3.50. He makes similar state
ments as to commissions of other
crimes of serious nature. Even bet
.er results have been obtained in ru-
al and small town districts. This
'alling off in crime is attributed to

It Has Been Worse.

Nearly 600 banks in the United
States suspended payment, and there
were 10000 commercial bankrupt
cies. Greece was in the "abyss of in
solvency" and Italy was on the
brink. In Russia famine and pesti-
lence prevailed, and in Australia
nearly every bank of consequence
had closed its doors. American farm
ers were so hard pressed that they
could hardly buy smoking tobacco.
Such were the conditions in 1898, as
revealed in newspapers and maya
zines of that time Looking back on
them, the period from which the
world is now emerging seems not so
gloomy, after all.-Nation's Business.

Death of J. D. McCrackin.

Will N. Calhoun in the News-Banner
The death of J. D. McCrackin has
removed citizen of Obion County
and Troy community, whose quiet
demeanor, frugal habits, truthful
tongue, energetic actions and moral
worth are worthy of emulation by
every human being.
This little sketch by one who knew
him over fifty years is not in
tended as an eulogy, for his life was
it's own eulogy. He did things in
an humble way, ever illustrating to
the world that industry brings thrift,
honesty! is it's own reward and that
religion is living experience.
Dunk McCrackin was born in
Green County, North Carolina. His
mother died while he was quite
small and neighhor by the name of
Stafford took the boy to rear. This
MIR. Stafford must have been man
of sterling worth. He was Quaker
and little Dunk was brought up as
a Quaker of strict sect. 1t is a rule
of the Quakers, "Never under any
circumstances to utter an untruth."
Dunk learned his lesson in it's per-
lection. Mr.. Stafford gave Dunk adj
vantage of the meager school facili-
ties Of North Carolina. The war
came just as he reached his teens in
1854 and we find Dunk wearing the
grey few months later. Being a
conscientious objector to war he vol
unteered his services in the quarter
master department. Here even as
elsewhere he did his duty.
Arriving to manhood the call of
the west was too strong and in 1866
or 81 we find Dunk cowboy on the
plains of Kansas. In the
latter part of 1858 he came back to
Obion County and hired to Augustus
Calhoun with whom he worked at
he tanners trade until 1873.
On Nov. 80, 1871, he married En-

could live fifty years in one continu-
'us round of bliss as they did.
To this union we're born eight
children, three of whom preceded
heir father. The other five are an
honor to their parents.
Dunk was Master Mason for
bout fifty years and the beautiful
essons were ever exemplified by his
Iaily walk.
He was a member of the Cumber-
and Presbyterian Church over SO
ears and ruling elder nearly the
whole period. He lived his religion
nd nobody doubted his piety.
