cate the children in the danger Of
the use Of alcohol.
A few words of explanation. The
distribution should Be under one head
and that Of the federal government
30 that proper and sure control be
maintained. The liquor to be sold
should be the best obtainable and
sold at cost 20 - to eliminate the
booze runner, blind.pigger and boot
logger. It would be . fatal error foe
the federal state or any minor sub
division Of the government to be per-
mitted to raise revenue on the traf-
fic. Il It Is permitted there viii be
no limit TO the amount levied with
the result that the tax for revenue
would raise the price to the consumer
90 high that It would only encourage
the bootlegger and pigger.
With good liquor sold at cost, plus
the charge for overhead and the fund
for the education Of school children
on the dangers Of alcohol, the cost Of
liquor to the consumer would Be 90
low - to make the business Of no
interest to the law breakers. Also,
federal dispensaries could and would
do what the saloon-keeper, blind
pigger and bootlegger have never had
the sense to do, and that Is to limit
the sale OF liquor to the individual.
Under the system Of federal dispen-
saries It would b possible for . wife
or other members Of . family to ask
that sale Of liquor be denied to q
husband, father, son or daughter and
have such . request respected. The
people have learned how to brew beer,
tlisttll liquor and make wine and so
long as we cannot revoke the natural
law Of fermentation and distillation
we viii have illicit brewers and dis.
tillers. bootleggers and blind-piggers
unless the government puts q better
product on the market at cost.
The federal dispensaries could be
managed In Just as clean q manner
as any business line we now have and
under no consideration should we
tolerate the return Of the licensed sa-
loon or the new.styled licensed beer
parlor with Its evils too numerous
and vile to set out In print. It would
be well also to again organize soci-
eties for the teaching Of temperance
ana total abstinence, which societies
ceased to function with the advent Of
the 18th amendment, for no good rea-
son at all as we now realize.

Editor, Tribune:
AS IN interested spectator Of the

called . state legislative assembly,
I am wondering where We ever got
the idea that ours was representa-.
tive form Of government.
In both branches Of this august
body we have, 30 far, seen very little
action Of q constructive nature and
practically none that could b classed
as progressive. In fact, the final ad-
journment Of this gathering win at
least put IN end to the travesty Of
popular government.
The climax In miscarriage Of rep
rcsentation was reached Wednesday
night when members Of this assembly
rose to their feet to explain their vote
on one Of the few really important
pieces Of legislation which 20 far has
come up for final consideration. From
their remarks, placed on record, We
are at q loss to understand the At

VOTERS ARE SICK OF TT
Regan, N. OAK.
Feb. il, 1888.

Editor, Tribune:
I wish to beg space In the Peoples
Forum to answer an article by my
old friend. Ole Hagstrom, that ap-
peared in . recent issue Of the Tribune
In which he sets forth all the evils
that will befall the people Of the
United States and the state Of North
Dakota In particular, II and when the
prohibition laws are repealed.
After Il years Of prohibition al the
evils that you speak Of are plainly
visible. They are not hidden behind
the repeal Of the Volstead Act or the
18th amendment.
Our government has lost one Of its
largest revenues, and Is spending mil
lions OF dollars annually on prohibi-
tion enforcement. Yet. anybody
knows tunless he has been mentally
kidnapeO that the prohibition laws
are not enforced and never win be.
That large majority Of the voters
Of North Dakota are sick and tired
Of prohibition was expressed In no
uncertain terms 1T the fall election.
Yet, Mr.. Hagstrom would deny these
voters the right Of liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness and tax them to
enforce . law that they do not want.
That public sentiment does not
want the prohibition laws enforced
can be proved BY the large number
Of bootleggers that We have In every
city and hamlet In the country. II
you don't know who they are most
any school boy can tell you. ! have
seen as many g SIX bootleggers openly
selling liquor at . public dance TO-
that had the purchase price.
! have seen some Of these bootleggers
caught, plead guilty, and sentenced to
six months In Jail, but ! noticed that
In about 10 days they are back home
again running their business - II
ever happened.
It Is common knowledge that every
town and community has its speak
easies, selling = poor grade Of liquor
at high price. No. the people have
not quit drinking. They have merely
been deprived Of the good quality and
honest value that the saloons for
nerly supplied. There may have been
. lot Of faults with the old time Sa-
looms, yet they were temples Of moral

A HOOvERIZED HOUSE?
Bisbee, N. D.,
Feb. 2Oth, 1888.

Editor, Tribune:
The people out over this broad
State Of North Dakota are watching
and wondering what the state legis-
lature at Bismarck Is going to do to
relieve the tax-burdened farmers from
the load they are staggering under to-
day. It Is true q few small things
have been touched on. It appear to
US at home that the members Of the
legislature, or majority Of them, are
afraid to tackle the big things that
would be Of permanent help to relieve
conditions.
It Is ridiculous to think Of q state
with less than 100, 900. population sup
porting seven normal schools, or that
many teaching normal subjects, when
the farmers in the country can not
pay taxes to keep their one room rural
schools operating to give the rural
children at least common school ed
ucation.
Iowa with q population Of 2,500, 900,
supports only one normal school and
is classed by the government as num-
Der one on education.
I may be out Of date by calling
them normal schools. It Is more cor
rect to call them colleges. The legis-
latlre should wake up and eliminate
some Of those surplus colleges, at least
until We farmers can afford to sup
port such q luxury. Use that money
it takes for their support to help the
rural high schools that are In distress
now. Two normals In the state should
be sufficient for the population we
have.
It is amusing to see some Of those
corporation attorneys claiming to be
such q dear friend to the farmers, but
how they jump on to bill that comes
up In the farmers favor. After all,
believe Senator Martin was right
when he introduced his bill to elm
mate them from future service In .
legislature. And then again when
the interest bill came up to reduce
the interest from . to 6 per cent Tin
fact the farmer can not afford to pay
the per cent? how some Of them
pleaded 1t would ruin the banker aud
drive him out Of business II he had to
lend out money at 6 per cent. OF the
two which Is the most important to
save, the banker or the farmer? The
majority Of the house appear to have
been Hooverized In favor Of the bank
er. BY their fruit ye shall know them.
Yours very truly,
G. r. Peterson.

OFFERS LIQUOR PLAN
Bismarck. N. Oak,
Feb. u, 1888.

Feb. II. 1888.
Editor. Tribune:
The following plan for liquor con-
troll Is submitted to the readers Of this
newspaper. The term liquor Is here
used includes whiskies, beers and
wines. It Is admitted by al that the
18th amendment Is . failure and that
some other form Of control must be
found to not only regulate the manu-
tacture and sale Of liquors but also
the consumption by the individual.
This plan hinges entirely on two
points:
~ To put the entire traffic un-
der federal control and liquor sold
through federal dispensaries.
a. That the liquor be sold ct cost
plus two additional charges only. One
to cover the overhead expenses Of
maintaining the dispensaries: the
other . charge to create fund TO

Rozier Dulany has donated 49,
900 feet Of the right Of way,
according to the board members,
and the remainder can be pur.
chased for $4,000.
The county has asked a civil
works grant Of $40, 882.59 for con.
Struction Of the approach and an
additional $4,379.87 for repairing
Harlowe Avenue, a connecting
road.
The Northern Virginia admin
istrator has approved the projects
and the State authority will act

WINE INDUSTRY
BOOM SEEN
FOR j. {.
BY International News Service

ny 1nUSEubbAOu8A SN9WB GUEWAC0
IF the Government viii encour'
age the production Of American
light wines, an industry win grow
up before many years that will
lure millions Of congested city
dwellers back to the soil, help to
solve the unemployment question,
and promote temperance, in the
opinion Of Paul Garrett, 71-year'
old dean" Of American wine pro
ducers.
Here to urge governmental en-
couragement Of light wine pro
duction by exempting mild wines
from liquor excise taxes, Garrett
revealed curious and little known
facts about an industry that
found root in early colonial times
In the United States. He said:
1.-THE idea that Americans do
mot like wine has no basis In
fact. For years domestic wine
growers and manufacturers were
handicapped by an unwarranted
belief that superior vintages
must be imported from abroad.
CHOKED OFF USES
"Just when this foolish preju-
dice was yielding to reality, .
WelLmeaning but misguided tenn.
perance craze struck the United
States and the women banished
wine from the table. Its only
avenue Of sale was ChOked off.
Return Of the wine industry
means immediate rehabilitating
Of Q half million acres in vine
yards. Proper governmental en-
cOuragement Of the industry
easily might mean the removal
from the city Of millions Of
persons, who would take up o
vocation requiring intelligence
and yielding good returns.
"A 2O.acre vineyard, intelli-
gently handled, with the vine
yarder converting his grapes
into wine, should yield not
merely . subsistence but q
lucrative income.
PEAK PRODUCTION
1.-THE finest wine grapes pro-
verbally grow on lands not
specially suited to other crops.
With the possible exception Of
two or three States on the
northern border, every State Is
capable Of producing choice
Wines"
Garrett expressed chagrin that
his native State Of North Caro-
lima, where the choice scuppernong
wine grapes grow at their best,
rejected the repeal amendment.
The task of making America a
sober nation will require years,
this scion Of pioneer house Of
winemakers predicted.
The Garrett wineries, eStab-
lished in 1885, reached a peak
production of between 100000
and 100000 gallons annually
shortly before prohibition.
