FAIRBANKS of Indiana. For Presidential Electors, G. R Dimmick OlHckamas A. C. Honch Josephine J.N. Hart Folk J. A. Fee Umatilla PROHIBITION WILL NOT PROHIBIT. This will be the last issue of the Gazette prior to the election. But a few days yet remain for the wavering voter to make up his mind which way to ote on local option. Notwithstanding the arguments of our worthy op ponent, Rev. Mount, the Gazette 8eea no good reason why it should change its a'titude on this ques tion. While we give these- re formers credit for great sincerity and zeal in the tiTort to rid the country of an acknowledged cute', the evils of which can sc rcely be reckoned, the advocates of prohi bition fail utterly to show that their plan will minimize them. On the other hand the Gazette's showing goes uncontroverted that where such profits abound-as ex ist in the saloon business, it will be carried on secretly or openly in spite of all prohibitory laws. The dcings of Carrie Nation in Kansas show plainly that in many places saloons are doiDg business openly, else there would be no mirrors to smash. Morrow coun ty does not desire such a nevt tr ending fight as exists in Kansas and Maine, when no better results are promised than exist in those states. To reinforce the statements and opinions of the Gazette we submit the following expressions of opin ion by leading men of our nation: Governor IVjies, writing or, pro hibition in Iowa in 1S'.)0 snid: "I feel certain that morn d s tilled spiiitd are used an a b-vei-Hge in Iowa under the pte.-ent law than has ever been or ever would be under a license system. I am equally certain iba: the spirits used are of the worst kind. There ia not a doubt but that prohibition has failed to lessen the evils of in temperance, has retarded immi eration into and hastened emigra tion from the state and constantly drained the state of immense sums of money sent to other states for the purchase of liquors, I do not believe that crime has been di minished or criminal exppnsea by this law, or that criminal convic tions are less than before this law went into effect. Instead, thereof, if we count prosecutions, convic tions and expenses incurred under this law, they have been greatly increased." Rev. T. J. Mackay, Council Bluffs, Iowa. "After several years of trial of prohibition in this city that law Las proved a miserable farce. The county ha been put to an im mense amount of trouble Mid x- 1R P This i, the banning of the middle of the Fall Season, and we were never better prepared to care for the . , of Ir n.anv natrons nor serve them better than at this time, and that our. efforts to please does the busi L,s for us.
