MODERATION LEAGUE
Mass Meeting at Auditorium Address
ed by Able Speakers

The mass meeting at the Audi
torium theatre last Friday evening
under the auspices Of Moderation
League of Ohio, was well attended,
and the audience would undoubtedly
have packed the house had it been
later Six o'clock is an inconvenient
time for the majority Of people.
f. r. Baker, formerly international
president of the Retail Clerks Union,
presided and introduced the speakers.
James Maloney, of Philadelphia,
president of the Green Glass Bottle
Blowers Association of America, the
first speaker, dWelt upon the Vol
stead act, proving that its enactment
had not suppressed the evils of intem-
perance, but had rather increased it.,
and that today more poisonous de-
coctiOns, under the guise of liquor
were being distributed than ever be-
fore in the history of the nation. He
favored a modification of the law
which had made lawbreakers of so
great number of our people, and
had been prostituted by dishonest
prohibition agents and corrupt judges
and employed as a means Of bringing
victims into court to be assessed fines
out Of all proportion to the misde-
meanor committed as compared with
other law breakers, who at least were
given jury trial
Judge John F. Seidel, of Columbus
spoke on Claw Enforceemnt." Judge
Seidel presided over the Columbus
municipal court for eight years and
knows what he is talking about, and
has the reputation of enforcing the
law to the letter In his speech
Judge Seidel referred to James A.
White, one of the Republican candi-
dates for governor, as the "uncroWn-
ed king of Ohio for the past five
years." claiming he had absolutely
dominated and that all measures he
desired passed were introduced at his
behest, and that now we have an al
most autocratic government in the
state, even more so than in some
European countries, for here the gov
ernOr is given supreme power and
can remove any office-holder whom
he may desire to set aside. He con-
cluded by advising his Republican
friends to vote for Homer Durand
saying that while he would enforce
the laws, he stood for sane govern
ment and return of personal liber-
ties to the people and not for special
privileges as now exists all over the
United States.
At the conclusion of Judge Seidel's
speech the meeting adjourned to a
platform on the north side Of the
court house yard, and w. w. Camp
bell, of Rochester, New York, vice
president of the c. B. B. A. address,

TOO MANY SLACKERS

The way people stayed away from
the polls on Tuesday was sin and a
shame.
The "Hired Man" has no desire or
intention of objecting to the candi-
dates chosen at that time, but it does
seem as if the Importance of select
ing suitable persons for the response
ble positions to be filled should have
impressed the voters sufficiently to
induce them to turn out in larger
numbers and aid in the good work.
A law denying the right to vote
to all those who failed to go to the
polls at the preceding primary cleo
tion might not be a bad idea. 1t
would at least jack up some Of those
people who are too careless to vote
at the primary and give them some
thing to think about.

Springfield Republican.
For years when the village was popu-

with life. The dark clothed men and
stiffly dressed women passed each other
in silence with averted eyes. In the
halls the Shakers enacted the solemn
and ceremonious dance which shook
their sober shoulders, the part of their
ritual which earned the sect its name.
All that is past. The rear guard. after

departed for Canterbury, where exists
another dwindling community. There
were only seven all told, white of hair
and feeble of mind.
No lack of worldly wealth has been
to blame for the dwindling of the
Shaker society, for there are more than
thousand acres of the best farm lands
in New Hampshire, free and clear. still
owned by the survivors of this Shaker
colony Of Enfield. A score of buildings

the age of independence caused the So
ciety to ,lwindle to practically nothing.
The colony however, continued and
prospered for many years. In addition
to the farm work the Shakers found
time to manufacture various articles. A
widespread demand was created for
Shaker sweaters, undergarments, stock
ings. brooms,- pals, sap buckets and
many other household utensils. They
also produced yearly large crops OF
medicinal herbs and fancy seeds.
All money obtained from work or eff
fort by members of the society became

In their social life the strictest dis

sexes was as slight as possible. The
