METHOD FOR FEEDING cows
Dusty Hays or Feeds That Are Liable
to faint Milk Should Be Givens
After Milking.

Hays that are dusty or feeds that
are liable to faint milk should be fed
after the cow is MIXED. A fine
method for feeding is to feed hay
three times day and silage and grain
twice. If grain is fed only once the
cow is liable to have digestive troubles
and this will affect the milk flow.

THE SHAME OF RUM
RUNNING

No nation can be proud of the
fact that its flag protects yes
sells in rum fleets that ride IN
safety outside the three mile
limit of American ports in
order to supply bootleggers and
other lawbreakers with the
means of violating the law OF
another nation.
Temporarily the owners OF
the rum fleets are earning huge
profits, but they are more GER
tainly earning the contempt of
the rightthinking people m the
countries whose flags they dis
honor.
As The Daily News has said
before, this disgraceful business
manifestly is spreading prohibit
ton sentiment far beyond the
borders of the United States.
1t is one of the influences that
are working to make the dream

wide prohibition--core true

SELLERS AND BUYERS

The national prohibition en-
forcement bureau will ask the
governors OF the states in their
coming conference at Washing
ton to recommend and work for
a uniform state code for liquor
law enforcement. Among the
statutes favored is one making
the purchaser of illicit liquor
guilty with the seller. Such
law would be justice and ulti-
mately will como.
There was a time when the
purchaser of votes was not Il
criminal; only the man who
sold his franchise could be con-
victed OF an illegal act and
punished. Public attitude to-
ward such transactions has
materially changed and both
buyer and seller OF votes are
now regarded as equally guilty
of assault upon the government.
Public opinion will sooner or
later include the buyer of prohi-
bited liquor with the seller in
its tsanathemas.-Springheld CID
Journal.

iency, declaring both the company
and its officers were bankrupt, but Tie
plea fell on deaf ears. The indict-
ment IS against the company and not
individuals" said Judge FitzHenry,
and Jail sentence cannot be i'm
posed. The fact is that the violation
has been confessed and should re-
ceive some consideration, but if these
defendants, who come of the best fam
lies of Adams county, and who admit
they have utterly disregardcd the laws
of the United States, are to go unpun-
ished, we might as we'll dismiss every
bootlcgging case on the courts docket.
IF these persons of high standing
in their community wilfully violate
the law" continued the court. what
can VIC expect of the foreigner? If
they were of this class, the iliteratc,
the people would not expect much else
from them, but this violation cannot
pass by unnoticed,"
Rutf's attorney Frank, J. Pennick,
of Quincy, told the court his client
was sick in bed when the violation Of
the prohibition laws occurred and that
he himself was not responsible. Fol
lowing assessment of the fine, the de-
fcndant asked for time to make pay
inent, and Judge FitzHenry stated
that matter could be settled with Dis
trict Attorney Thomas Williamson.
The Ruff brewery was closed in
February by order of the federal court.
Judge FitzHcnry stated that on appli-
cation by owners the decree closing
the place might be modified If some
legitimate business was contemplated.

BIG CROWDS HEAR
DRAMATIC DEBATE
IN STATE DRIVE
Enforcement Rallies Held In Quincy,
Decatur, and Bloomington.

The first downstate rallies in tho
Anti-Saloon Leagues statewide en-
forcement drive were held at Quincy
Decatur, and Bloomington last week
The largest meeting was at Decatur
where the Grace NJ. L. Church was
completely filed by an audience OF
about seven hundred. Preceding the
debate Mayor elect Elmer Elder, a
member OF the church in which the
meeting was held addressed the crowd
and pledged his best efforts in sup
port OF prohibition enforcement. The
states attorney of Macon County. MIR
{. +. Evans, also briefly discussed en-.
forcement anG pledged his best efforts
in behalf OF the prohibition law.
At Quincy the Hon. Geo. Fl. Viii
son, member OF the Headquarters
Committee. OF the Anti-Saloon League
presided. Mr., Wilson has recently
served as a special assistant attorney
general in charge of liquor law prose
cutions in the Federal Court of Chi
cago. In all three cities there was
great interest in the enforcement
fight. Great credit for the success
OF the meetings is due to the pastors
of the churches in which the rallies
were held and to the many other in
dividuals and organizati that CO.
operated.
Enthusiastic Crowd at Decatur.
The following is from the Decatur

is up to all to aid in choking the traf-

THAT, in brief, was the thought
brought out by O. G. Christgau and
John w. Langley i'll their debate, Can
the Law Be Enforced? in the Grace
Methodist church last evening. They
spoke under the auspices of the Anti

audience which we'll filled the auditor

Sels within the three-milc limit
One OF the chief points in the de-
c:sion Of tie Supreme Court covered
The question of the meaning OF the
word territory" as used in the Eight
centh Amendment and the National
Prohibition Act On this the court
said:
Territory Three Niles at Sea.
Various meanings are sought to be
attributed to the term territory in
the phrase the United States and all
territory subject to the jurisdiction
thereof We are of opinion that it
means the regional areas-of land and
adjacent waters-ovcr which the Unit
ed States claims and exercises domn-
ion and control as a sovereign power
The immediate context and the pur-
port OF the entire section show that
the term is used in a physical and
not a metaphorical sense; that Is, re-
fers to areas or districts having fxity
OF location and recognized boundaries
1T now is settled in the United
States and recognized elsewhere that
the territory subject to is jurisdic ion
includes the land areas under its do
minion and control, the ports, harbors,
bays, and other inclosed arms OF the
sea along its coast and marginal
belt OF the sea extending from the
coast line outward a marine league, or
three geographic miles.
This, we hold, is the territory
which the amendment designates as
its field of operation, and the des:gna-
ton is not part OF this territory, but
OF all of it
By the same reasoning which led
to the decision that United States
ships outside OF the three-m mile limit
do not come within the meaning of
territory the court concluded that
foreign ships are subject to the oper-
alton of prohibition laws OF the United
States within the three-mile limit On
this point the court said.
Rights of Alien Ships.
"a merchant ship Of one country
voluntarily entering the territorial linn
its OF another subjects herself to the
jurisdiction of the latter. The jurs-
diction attaches in virtue of her pres
encc, just as with other objects within
those limits. During her stay she is
entitled to the protection of the laws
