The Pioneer Press. "HERE SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS MAINTAIN, UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN." ESTABLISHED 1882. Whitelaw Reid's Tribute To Scots Whitelaw Reid's Tribute To Scots Speaking before the Philosophical Institution in Edinburgh, the other day on "The Scot in America and the Ulster Scot," Whitelaw Reid, American Ambassador to the Court of St. James, delivered an eloquent tribute to the genius, skill and ability of the "bonnie ladies" of highland and lowland, who have enriched the world and added to the fame of the United States by their talent. The address, which was one of the most noteworthy commentaries on the mental prowess of the Scotch as a race delivered for many years, has excited widespread comment. Comparing the Scot with the Puritan and the Cavalier in America, Mr. Reid said: "Neither Puritans nor Cavaliers led in the struggle for freedom of speech and of the press. That honor belongs to a Scot, Andrew Hamilton, who went in 1695 from Edinburgh to America, where he rose to be Attorney General of Pennsylvania. Neither Puritans nor Cavalier kindled the popular flame for independence. Two years before James Ouis's famous speech in the Boston Town House, in 1691, Patrick Henry, a Scot, had done that in Virginia in the defense against the noted Parson cause." Mr. Reid declared that the whole country between the Alleghany mountains and the Mississippi River was a conquest of the Scot, who poured over the mountains chiefly from Pennsylvania. Then turning to more recent conquests by individual Scotchmen, he said: "The telegraph depends today all over the world on the inventions of Joseph Henry, and S. F. D. Morse, both of Scottish origin. The telephone comes closer to you still, for Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, while Thomas A. Edison's mother, Mary Elliott, was also of Scottish blood. So was Cyrus McCormick, who brought the wheat fields of the United States and Canada to your doors by the invention of the reaper. To that great list might well be added Robert Fulton, builder of the first steamship to navigate American waters and the man who built the first steamship to cross the Atlantic, and many of the leading railway builders and operators, from Strathcona and Mount Stephen, across the invisible border, in Canada, and their efficient ally in New York, John S. Kennedy to the managers of the greatest of Eastern railways, the Pennsylvania, which has been almost continuously in the hands of men of Scottish blood—James McCrea, Thomas A. Scott, J. N. McCullough, Robert Pitcairn, Andrew Carnegie, Frank Thomson and A. J. Cassat. In the same list may well be included the great iron-masters, from Grant, who built the first iron furnace west of the Alleganies, and John Campbell, the Ohio Scot, who first used the hot blast in making pigiron, to Andrew Carnegie, in whose colossal operations the iron and steel manufacture seemed to culminate. "The first fast printing presses were developed by Scot, Gordon and Campbell; the stereotype presses Department of Archives, Ch a W. Ve. WE SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE MARTINSBURG, W. necessary to complete their usefulness came also from an inventor of Scottish blood; the first American newspaper, the News Letter, was published in Boston by John Campbell; the first newspaper in the great territory northwest of the Ohio River was published at Cincinnati by William Maxwell; the first religious newspaper was also started by a Scotsman of Chillicothe O., and, the two most noted editors in the United States were James Gordon Bennett and Horace Greeley, the one a Scot, the other an Ulster Scot." Then there was Benjamin Cushing Mudge, inventor of the Oxford processes by which linen requiring 30 weeks to manufacture in the old world, is in America transformed from the flax fibre to the finished cloth in less than two days, a feat which is rapidly wresting from Europe its centuries old domination of that industry. Of the 27 American presidents James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, James Knox Polk, James Buchanan, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B Hayes, Chester Alan Arthur, and William McKinley, all were either wholly or partly of Scotch ancestry. Wherever the Scot has been given a chance he has made good. WILSON FOR OPTION WILSON FOR OPTION GOV. WOODROW WILSON SAYS HE BELIEVES IN TRUE LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT. Presidential Possibility Deplores Dragging Into Politics A Social Question. Trenton, N. J.—In a recent letter to Rev. Thomas B. Shannon, superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league in New Jersey, Gov. Woodrow Wilson, of that state, now prominently before the public as a Democratic presidential possibility, said that he was against the liquor question in politics. "I am a thorough believer in local self-government," said Gov. Wilson, "and I believe that every self-govern- 1930 Democratic Governor of New Jersey, Who Favors Local Option. ing community which constitutes a social unity should have the right to control the matter of the regulation or of the withholding of licenses. But the questions involved are social and moral, and are not susceptible of being made part of a party program. Whenever they have been made the subject matter of party contests, they have cut the lines of party organization and party action ahtwart to the utter confusion of political action in every other field. I do not believe that party programs of the highest consequence to the political life of the state and of the nation ought to be thrust on one side and hopelessly embarrassed for long periods together by making a political issue of a great question, which is essentially non-political, non-partisan, moral and social, in its nature." MISSTATES THE FACTS. Columbus, O.—The Anti-Saloon league of Ohio has issued its "Campaign Text Book Against License" for use in the campaign in Ohio for constitutional delegates. In the past session of the Ohio legislature Senator Green, of Coshocton, introduced a constitutional convention bill which allowed the question of licensing the sale of liquors in Ohio to be submitted to the people as a separate issue. The text book of the Anti-Saloon league is trying to show that a license law in Ohio will allow the unrestricted sale of intoxicants. The liquor men are fighting for the license law, as this is the only method by which the sale of liquor has been found to be regulated satisfactorily. The present constitution of Ohio gives the legislature the right to pass laws regulating the traffic in liquors. The result is that "wet and dry" legislation is before the legislature three-fourths of the time of each session, to the detriment of progressive legislation. The Dean bill, which provided that all saloonists should be of good character, was declared unconstitutional by the supreme court. A license law will have the character of the applicant as the basis for granting licenses. The license plan for Ohio is meeting with the approval of editors and prominent men throughout the state. LEAVENWORTH SEEKS TO DERIVE A REVENUE FROM LIQUOR TRADE Leavenworth, Kan.—The city fathers of Leavenworth are trying to enact some law by which they can secure a revenue from the liquor traffic for Leavenworth. For some time the custom of bringing liquor into the city in wagons from Missouri has increased, and it has now reached such an extent that the city fathers realize a large revenue could be secured by placing a tax upon each wagon hauling liquor that comes into the city. The persons to be taxed express their willingness to pay the tax. Hundreds of cases of beer and other liquors are seen on the streets of Leavenworth every day being delivered to customers throughout the city. The city is losing a vast sum of revenue each year, while the man engaged in business is compelled to bear the burdens of the city's up-keep. It is said that the new ordinance will be for the purpose of producing revenue only. The attitude of the city is taken as the beginning of more liberal measures toward the liquor traffic throughout the state. Dosed by Doser by Arithmetio Before wireless telegraphy was thought of, and the patient could communicate with the shore doctor, the captain was the ship's doctor, says the London Chronicle. He had a medicine chest with numbered bottles, and a book of instructions. There is a ship's carpenter still living who owes his life to the captain's treatment. It was rheumatism. The captain read in the book of instructions: "In cases of rheumatism one tablespoonful of No. 11 three times a day." There had been a run on No. 11. But "6" and "5" were full. "I reckon that makes '11,'" said the captain. And he cured the carpenter by arithmetic. The Galaxy of Double Stars Coburg, Lane county, a village of 800 people, boasts two pairs of twins born within the last six weeks, and six pairs of various ages in attendance upon its public schools. Upon the basis of these facts Colonel Roosevelt is to be invited to visit Coburg while in the state and say a few encouraging and congratulatory words to the parents of the village.—Portland Oregon. Md. Negroes Kill Digges Bill The battle is over and the victory is ours. We have not only elected a republican governor, but we have buried the Digges Constitutional Amendment so deep that it will never again be mentioned. It has gone down even deeper than the Poe and Straus amendments, simply because these repeated efforts are bringing out the hidden metal of the Maryland Negro. He has just come to the conclusion that he doesn't intend to be disfranchised. If Goldsborough's election will serve to make us secure in our franchise rights, and give us an equal chance to grow intellectually and materially we will be content, for its a settled conclusion that no state officers will come our way, hence we will lose no sleep over that matter. Gorman was defeated because there are a whole lot of democrats who wanted it that way. He is a machine politician, who aspires to boss the state just as his father bossed it—with an iron hand. Two such from one family is too much even for a Maryland democrat. With the rapid growth of independence in both the old parties, and the growing prestige of the Socialists, it is certainly difficult to predict how this old state will go in future. It is quite evident that the cry of "Nigger" is losing its effect, just as all false issues do the moment the intelligent portion of the electorate is able to discern the purposes. They now see it and will lose no time in ridding themselves of the reproach upon their intelligence. Yes sir, in the late contest the Negro came down squarely on both feet, and there he will stand. Disfranchising efforts can't move him, and attempts at segregation, as W. Ashbie Hawkins has very clearly shown, will injure the white property owner vastly more than it will the Negro. Think of it, thousands of dollars worth of property in Baltimore standing idle as the result of the attempt to hinder and humiliate the colored man. Well, he is not hindered nor is he humiliated, but the men who own the property are losing many precious dollars. How long he will stand this sort of thing remains to be seen. That property is going to be rented; if not to white men then to colored and thus Maryland segregation will die ignominiously. Taking all in all, the Maryland colored man seems to be holding his own very well. From the testimony in the case we certainly believe that Dr. Washington has vindicated himself and has come out from under a cloud that at one time looked very threatening. Judges who can render such a decision in the face of the testimony offered, ought to be driven from the high positions which they occupy. Now let us forget it. Jackson. Frostburg, Md. J.

Anecdotal Literature Anecdotal Literature BY W. G. THE AGED CORNELIUS. In the Island of St. Thomas, in the West Indies, a Negro, named Cornelius, was called by Divine grace, over a century ago, by means of the Moravian Missionaries, and soon after began to preach to his race. He was blessed with considerable talents, and able to speak several languages. He was a slave, but purchased his liberty and that of his wife, and subsequently that of his children. He learned the business of a mason, and laid the foundation—stone of six chapels. He labored indofatigably for the spiritual welfare of both the poor Negroes and whites until his death when eighty years old. THE BARBER "Here! I say," explained the customer; he a little careful with that razor; that's the second time you've cut me." "Well, well, so it is," said the barber; "I always deduct a ha'penny for every cut. Why it is nothing for a man to go out of here having won four pence off me." THEIR OPINIONS. Husband—I think that Miss Maud is pretty." Why—"You do? That snicker-faced man-hunter?" I admire your idea of beauty: She's homely enough to frighten blind people. But that's the way it goes after a man tires of his wife. Every thing in skirts appears pretty to him, and then he don't know enough to keep it to himself,—comes home and tells poor wife—bool bool bool!" Wife—John! John! there's a loafer going through your trousers!" Husband—"Oh, you two fight it out between yourselves." WHERE JONES WENT A series of revivals were held in a Western city, and placards were posted in conspicuous places. One day the following notice was posted: Hell—It's location and absolute certainty. Thomas Jones, baritone soloist will sing: "Tell mother I'll be there." An old lady was telling her grand child about some trouble in Scotland, in the course of which the chief of her clan was beheaded. "It was one great thing of a head, bairns to be sure," said the good old lady, "but it was a sair loss to him." SPECIAL DELIVERY.

J. R. Clifford, Editor & Proprietor Drawer 869, and Boll 'Phone, 60K Martinsburg, W. Va. SATURDAY,NOVEMBER 18 1911 If the new Republican State Committee is not a fullfledged offspring of the old one colored by John, you may sing "Billy Jones" to me. When President Taft took himself to Hodgeeville Ky., it can but portray the offrontery of the Devil in going on the Mount and offering Jesus Christ the Kingdom of the world, if He would bow down and worship him. One of the biggest fool things known, is the industrial propaganda of industrialism. Keep in mind and keep it there forever that the mass of the Negroes are not as dumb as given credit for being. Before Booker Washington was born, they ruled the South in workmanship and mechanism, end are destined to do so for time immemorial. It's doubtful if there is another town in the United States, the size of Hancock, Md., that has the equal or superior in the skill of cutting and making clothes to Mr. W. D. Myers; and added to his wonderful mechanical genius in tailoring, there isn't another town its size that has a finer gentleman, nor a tailoring establishment that has nicer and neater looking workers. The wonder of the closing of the year 1911, in what brains and type have done or can do, is "Webster's New International Dictionary." It's an accurately condensed encyclopedia of the world,—the whipped cream in definition and pronunciation. Its value is inexpressible, and it ought to be in the home of every progressive family. Old Virginia in its trial of Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., including its courts, its jury and its Governor, set the world a splendid example. Beattie killed his wife and the law has been carried out to the letter. John Mitchell Jr., editor of the Richmond Planet, has never failed to praise the various courts of Virginia, and especially the Supreme Court. The Philadelphia Tribune, and a few other papers ought to be ashamed of the glaring whitewashing they tried to give Mr. Booker T. Washington. It was Mr. Lincoln who said in substance, his plan was to do right according to the dictates of his conscience, and that if he were right in the end, O. K, but if wrong, and ten angels from heaven awore he was right, that would not make it so. See the point? We should only get what we honestly deserve. There is, has been and will be a hue and cry against the use of whiskey, the harm of which, is not nor can it be, as hurtful to society and its generation of baby smokers as cigarettes. If we had a child bent on doing one of the two evils above mentioned, whiskey would be our choice. But why all this rumpus over whiskey when caste in church and society, fostered by the anti saloon people is far worse than the drink habit? To condem whiskey and cultivate caste is camel swallowing and gnat choking. In God's name be consistent. Bulletins are being sent all over this country to Negroes and Negro newspapers, for the purpose of deceiving Negroes into supporting Mr. Taft. The last tells in great shape, how he praised Lincoln in Kentucky last week. If Lincoln could rise out of his grave for the sole purpose of smiting hypocrites in high places, Mr. Taft would get the first blow. Why praise Lincoln, and not like the product of his labor. Does he believe that as molasses draws and sometimes catches flies, so will the praise of Lincoln catch Negro voters? Wrong! Would Lincoln discharged the Brownsville brave and black defenders of old glory? Nay! nay! Would Lincoln tell the world that Negroes are a distinct class and must be so treated? No! and no again. Would Lincoln turned the loyal Negroes over to the lily whites in the South?—worse foes of Negroes than the rankest democrats. Would Lincoln turned every Negro out of office in the South? Would Lincoln begged Negroes to vote for him, and tell them that if they did not vote for him and elect by so acting a democrat, he would be sure to appoint democrats on the Supreme Court bench and how dangerous to them it would be and soon after being elected, appointed three democrats? Not much. Lincoln was God's man. Mr. Taft is on the side of the other fellow. In form and feature, the American women will measure up to all others the world over. Their climate is the best and their opportunities and advantages second to none. Owing to the foregoing facts, ought not they be foremost women in everything in the world? Are they? Let's see. Have they not sold themselves—soul and body to fashion? We shall only run back for the past fifty years when hoops took the day, but deal with the high-heel shoes, hair rats and other things in this hobble age. The way their hair has been put up over "rate" admittedly looked attractive, but being false, how could it impress honest men, and does not all the false apparel worn by women weaken their true character, and influence the young males to become foes? The high heels that have been the rage long enough to disease millions of our future mothers, are now unfashionable, and they must go back to low heels, and may the hobble fad soon fade away. It looks like the fast women of Paris just try to see how far they can make the other women of the world go in frivolity, and it has been going on so long, that the Paris dudes have set a pace for the purpose no doubt of seeing if the American men are as foolish as their women; so they say we shall wear knee pants. Will we do it? We are going to speak for about forty million American men, and say, they will not, and it is a pity as much, with the certainty of truth, could not be said of our women when fast French women dictate what the world's decent women must wear. When a person who was born in the country and there lived out his early teens, and then took to city life and when tolerably aged, goes back to his boyhood haunts, what gives him the most delight? He looks over the old play grounds; goes to the spring where his thirst was often quenched; and as memory begins to open wider and wider the book, everything he has done with delight stands before him—where Jack caught the rabbits, killed the groundhog, treed the squirrels, and while a hundred other joys of youth are coming back, lol and behold! for the first time in a quarter of a century he sees his favorite little friend—"Miss Jennie Wren, the bluejay robin redbreast, blue birds, and so on, filling the woods with their sweet music and naturally he wonders why he has not been hearing and seeing those birds all his life in the city. He comes home and of all the things he talks about, the birds take the first rank. Finally it dawns on him that were it not for the hateful, spiteful, indulgent English sparrows, our native birds would be found everywhere, and he quickly makes up his mind they ought to be killed off. Is he right? Absolutely so. They are the worst pests we have and a national warfare should begin and that at once to kill them all for they are killing our birds and robbing their nests. Much talk is going on about our wide state primary law. As a system for purifying politics, it is rotten to the core. To prove it, the coming of Mr. Swisher to Martinsburg few days before the 1908 primary needs only to be mentioned. There could be no better scheme for graft, and especially in a country debauched as is the United States by its millionaire army of vote buying politicians—afterwards stalking over the country cursing the men who sold to the highest bidders. Aside from the selling, the ballots exhibit in their composition, the combined skill in rascality of the shrewdest politicians; done for no other purpose than to puzzle the voters and especially those few who can't be bought. Mark our word for it, as the fashion fads all revert back to the good old way of doing things on the simple plan, so must the nominations and voting in this country. We believe it's the will of our divine Maker that this earthly paradise should be ruled right, and we go with our greatest genius—across the Atlantic ocean by steam, then follow him flying over Europe in his auto, and finally snaking the mountains of Switzerland, when his auto turned turtle, and there stood our Mr. Edison helpless as a baby, and the only way he could get out of the far off woods from civilization, was to hire a mule and a cow to pull his once big flyer. Can you see a divine significance in it to not only be applied to politics, but to all of the swift wickedness that are fast ripening this country for Rome's fate? Americans have but one thing to do and that is, go back to truth and honor, and all good things will follow—even our simple old ballot system, preceded by our patriotic conventional nomination—the log cabin, "the "coon", touch parades before and after election. Those days were happy days and made better men and women, by ending in love and renewed friendship, while now it takes weeks to get over drunks and years for courts to play in farcical prosecutions for the violation of election laws. ALEXANDRA DEFIES OLD AGE Secret of Dowager Queen's Youthful Appearance Lies Mostly in Her Diet. The secret of Queen Alexandra's wonderful youthful appearance never ceases to interest feminine England and some details of her diet have been imparted to the curious. Queen Alexandra never touches red meat. She cats only chicken, turkey, duck and game. The vegetables she has served to her are cabbage, spinach, peas and beans. She does not eat pudding or pastry and for dessert has simply fruit cooked or uncooked and nuts and raisins. She is particularly fond of nuts and has been known to make an entire luncheon of almonds and walnuts dipped in salt. She eats toast,rather than bread and very little butter, but quantities of cream. She drinks nothing but hot milk, having given, up tea, coffee, cocoa and wines years ago. On this diet with a moderate amount of exercise Queen Alexandra keeps wonderfully well and preserves a girlish symmetry of figure and softness of skin which makes it difficult to realize that she is well past 60.

All the people around here, said I would die, but Cardui relieved me." For more than 50 years, Cardui has been relieving woman's sufferings, and making weak women strong and well. During this time, thousands of women have written, like Mrs. McPherson, to tell of the really surprising results they obtained by the use of this purely vegetable, tonic remedy for women.

CITIES ARE GOING BANKRUPT Bouthern States, Growing Tired of Prohibition Farce, Are Turning to Ts. Local Option as the Solution Proen For the Liquor Problem, CT Ma RATE | Te ee ee a Sh) tremendous rate. The government has been at its wits’ ends to keep up with the illicit stills. To be sure, many have been captured and destroyed in Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama. Nevertheless, hundrods have been tn operation which have not been touched. It would take a verita- ble army of revenue officers to keep Pace with the makers of untaxed whis- ky in the wild, mountainous regions of these siates. There have been some sharp battles the past two years between revenue officers and moon- shiners and move than one death has occurred In these skirmishes In moun- tain fastnesses. With prohibition driving the moun- taineers anew to moonshining, gillings may bq the order of the day in the fu- ture when revenue officers and {Ilicit distilleries clash. Since state-wide prohibition has gone into effect in these Southern states, scores upon scores of small farmers, thousands of them, have taken to converting corn they grow into spirits. Much of this 4s extremely crude, but sales are found for all, that 1s produced, most of the farmers keeping but little to age prop: erly. Farmers sell the stuff in the 1,200 cotton and woolen mill towns and get good prices for the fiery liquor. ‘ People’s Mayor. There ts an interesting mayoralty campaign now going on in Nashville, Tenn. Mayor Howse, who has been in office for two years, is running for re- election. Under him the town has been “wide-open.” Saloons do busi- ness without any attempt at conceal- ment. The mayor's enemies say. there are 20 gambling houses and innumer- able houses of low character doing businéss uninterruptedly. The mayor's enemfes also say ho is costing the city about $250,000 a year by not enforcing the near beer licenses. The mayor Limself does not deny he has not en- forced the Hquor laws. In his cam- palgn two years ago, he pledged him- self to enforce the laws. He -says in his present campaign: “Shortly after 1 was elected two years ago, I found that pubtic sentiment was wholly against the rigid enforcement of tho Mauor laws, I could not act against public sentiment, for majority rule {s the rule of the people, and I am the People’s mayor.” In refernce to state- wide prohibition, the mayor says: Governor Challenged. “This {s my stand on the state-wide Brohibition theory. “Gov. Hooper went all over the state of Tonnessce telling what he would do to the violators of this state-wide pro- hibition Jaw. He told thousands upon thousands of listeners how ho would gerd Iqn-~ law violators té the rock pile, etc., Lut I have yet to hear of a single conviction under his administra- on,,and he has been in office nearly a year, The governor says I ought to enforce tho law in Nashville. 1 want to say to the governor, that I sent a man to Newport, his home town, and he came back and said he could stand on the steps of Gov. Hooper's law of- fice and take a yarn ball and throw tt Snto three saloons. He brought whisky mnd beer in these places, and here they ere.” The mayor displayed the Bottles and sald they were not. pur- ebased for the purpose of seading any- ody to work on the rock pile. “I mwouldn't do a trick like that,” he said. “If I procured a bottle of whisky with that ond in view, I'd feel like serving She sentence for the man myself, if he were. convicted.” As a campaign classic, I consider the following re. mark of the mayor of Nashville to the governor of Tennessee one of the dest: “I want to say to Maj. Stahlman and the governor that, before they seek to clean up Nashville, they should clean up their home town. Newport has only 3,000 inhabitants, and it would be an easy matter to enforce the state mide Jaw there. Start in Newport, gov- ernor, for I have got the goods on you!” Bigger Than Governor. Mayor Howse, of Nashville, who elaims to have two clergymen and as many women as the opposition has with him, is making no bones about not enforcing the liquor laws in Nach J rabid epponenis. Here, then, is a typhi cal loca! campaign in a state-wide pro hibition stete, in which au incumbent inayor is using for his principal polit. ical platform the ignoring of the stat- ute laws of the state. Here is a cam. | paign in which a mayor places himself as an executive above the governor, openly challenging the bigger officer to enforce the laws he is pledged by oath of office to enforce if he possibly can. Here then Is the strongest Indict- meat of the state-wide prohibition laws they are considered in most of the cities in the Southern state-wide prohibition zone. Is it a wonder, then, that law-abiding, long-suffering citt. zens in these cities say, “What's the use?” when asked concerning the working cf the prohibition laws. Enfercing Laws. In justice to many of the small towns and small cities of the South, It must be said that the prohibition laws kre pretty well enforced, when the cit: Izens of those small towns and small cities demand strict enforcement of their local officers. Take a bustling, hustling, progressive little city like Athens, Ga. Under local option this city derived enough income to give it- self excellent sewers, costly paved streets und other improvements. Un- der state-wide prohibition, selling of beers and liquors goes on in Athens, but the city gets no rich revenues to continue paving streets and building sewers. The beer men and whisky imen are the gainers Local Option Next. There are states which have profit- ed by the mistakes of there five state: wide prohibition — commonwealths. Florida and Misscuri have refused to enact state-wide prohibitory laws. They prefer to stick to local option. State-wide prohibition never could be enforced in such cities as St. Louis, Mo., or Jacksonville, Fla. Public opin- fon would be so strongly against pro- hibition in those elties as to make a joke of the state laws. There are many small cities In the state-wide prohibitory states such as Athens, Ga., which regulated liquor traffic well under local option, keeping good order, strictly enforcing the laws, and getting much revenue for public improve: menis. ‘Thege cities today are at a standstill #s far as public improve- ments are concerned, the prohibition- ists objecting strongly against In- creased taxes on their property to pay for the building of good sewers, paved streets, and sanitary school houses. From my observation and from the opinions I gathered from men of av- thority in three of the five state-wide prohibition commonwealths, it will be but a matter of a few years before these states go back to the local, op tion system again. North Carolina may hold out longer, but Georgia, Ted. nessee and Mississippi will try again the local option system. CONSUMPTION INCREASES, Prohibition Laws Fail to Keep Down Sale of Liquors, Washington, D. C.—In the last twelve months the consumption of liquors broke all records and the people of the United States consumed over 8,000,000 gallons more of whisky and over 113,000,000 gallons of beer in the fiscal year ending June 20, 1911, than they did in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1910, necording to the official figures of R. E. Cabell, United States Commissioner of Internal Revenue. HAULING LIQUOR OVERLAND FAILS. Bootlegger on Way to the Muskogee Fair Ie Captured By Officers. Muskogee, Okla—Out on the prairie between Muskogco and Keefton, dop- uty sheriffs at midnight Sunday cap- tured a bootlegger with 432 quarts of whisky which he was hauling over- land from Keefton to Muskogee. A short time ago the Muskogee offi- cers stationed a policeman at every freight depot in town with Instruc- tions to arrest any baggage or trans- fer man wko attempted to take liquor out of the railroad warehouses. This effectually blocked the delivery of lig uor and the railroads commenced to ship the liquor back, after holding it a certain length of time. | The Muskogee fair is on this week and the bootleggers were at their wits end to envolve a plan whereby they could get liquor into town, as there will be a tremendous demand for it during the fair, and at any price asked. Henry Ward decided he would get his liquor overland. So he had thirty: six cases shipped to Keefton, a small station ten miles out of Muskogee. Saturday night he decided to bring it in. The officers got a tip and went out six miles to a point on the Keefton road they knew Ward would have to pass and waited. About midnight the liquor-laden wagon showed up. Ward was arrested and with his cargo of liquor brought into Muskogee. With dry counties changing back to wet every few days the indications are that tae long drouth is about to become history. ue = —_—" oe for tiventy-cight _ Weare THE PIONEER PRESS Ilas boen the iceder in this State and Nation for the grand and noble fight that is being waged for the arvelioration of the condition of the Negro.
