The addreBS of Attorney IJurke at the armory lant night whs a splendid appeal to the Intelligence and com mon seilso of the voter on the liquor question. There has honn mileFf said by the wet Interests to the effect that the argument against ho aaloon Is a sentimental ono and not rounded on good business. But when one Bifts the argument aguinst the saloon Is a reason the argument Is both logical and conclusive from a business point of view against the saloon. His remarks were clear and to the Jtolnt und brought round after round or applause when he sunk a telling point homo. It Is to ho regretted that the entire populace or the city could not have heard his speech. Tho News1 endorses his remarks and trustB that tho enthusiasm en gendered will boar fruit on the fifth day of November.

The people residing on Smith Jackson street, and the pnri'iils of Bchiiol children who Hud it ueccsanry to travel South Jackson street to the Hose school building owe a vole or thanks to J. A.

Pres ident 1 art s views or bow a presiden tial campaign should be conducted were given to the United Press to day In an exclusive Interview. The president's Idea or the proper way to elect a chief executive follows lly President Tuft. (Copyrighted, 1912, by Tho United Press.) "Mr. President," asked the United Press correspondent, "how do you personally believe a presidential cam paign should be conducted?" Hero Tuft Answered: "In such a way as to bring out as many votes or the citizens as pos sible. The great dangor to a repub lican government, as I see It, Is the lack or Interest In politics and fail ure to oxerclse tho suffrage by a lurgo number of citizens. I regret to say I believe statistics show those who neglect tills Important duty are generally Intelligent and capablo or exercising the discrimination In volved that would work for the good of the government. Kverythlng thererore, should he done to bring out this voto In' presidential cam paigns. The press, of course. Is the chief instrument In keeping before the public tho various Issues Involved. A campaign conducted In 48 states necessarily Involves the expenditure of vast amounts. At times It seems more or less easy to raise consider able sums by popular subscriptions. nut In the jinst there have been com paratively tow persons who volun tarily contribute their mite to such campaigns." What do you think," tho prcsl- dL-nt was asked, "or the effect of per sonalities In a political campaign?" 'resident Tnft answered: I doubt whether personalities have anything like tho effect which theme who use them think tlley have Some Minos there Is a real revela tion of the character of a candidate and so clearly proven to his detri ment that ho suffers. Ordlnarllv. lie use of epithets and personal nt- ncks on candidates only anger their friends and gratify IJie(r enemies, but do not affect Indiffen ml. nnew 'heso attacks lower tho tone of dis union and divert tho attention of lie public from the real farts at is- Biie. Fop that reason, the feu-..r personalities Injected Into the cam paign, the belter, as the public Is! I hen mure likely to reach a sound1 and Just conclusion." Asked If the people still expected dignity In high oiilce. the president said: "Certainly. I am convinced ihal the very humblest voter wishes his favorites to conduct themselves wllh dignity and refrain from descending to personalities, which ordinarily we would not mssoclale with men iln prominent, conspicuous places."

These are good reasons for suc cess, are they not? Having had many inquiries for Gas Stoves and Ranges, we have finally accepted agency, for which we think is the best obtainable, in the ACORN. Gas is THE fuel for home use, and especially so in the kitchen. With wood or coal, you require more room With wood or coal, you must wait sometime before securing re quisite heat. With wood or coal, you loose time taken to keep stove supplied with fuel. With wood or coal, you have a constant variation of heat. With wood or coal, you cannot be gone very long or fire is out. With w )od or coal, it is dust and dirt and smoke from time fuel is brought in until ashes are carried out. Do any of those objections apply to gas? And cheapness is in favor of gas, if properly used, for it can be wasted as well as wood or coal. j Come in and look over our "Special" series of gas ranges, and you can be easily shown where economy lies. j Look at cut in upper left hand corner, note that there is no stoop ing or lifting while using ovens.
